Taiwan sees 932 severe COVID cases, 64 weekly COVID deaths reported
The domestic COVID-19 epidemic is declining, but it is still in the epidemic period: Taiwan CDC 08/06/2024 Week Ending -- Severe COVID cases -- COVID Deaths June 17 -- 624 -- N/A June 24 -- 817 -- 40 July 1 -- 932 -- 64 July 8 -- 987 -- 99 July 15 -- 896 (revised) -- 104 July 22 -- 773 -- 124 July 29 -- 584 -- 90 Aug. 5 -- 446 -- 104 "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stated that the domestic COVID-19 epidemic situation is declining, but it is still in the epidemic period and the number of severe cases and deaths is still high. It is necessary to pay attention to the risk of serious illness. It is expected to be out of the epidemic period in late August. ... The CDC pointed out that the global COVID-19 positivity rate continues to rise, with increases in Africa, Europe, the Americas, Southeast Asia and the Western Pacific, and fluctuations in the Eastern Mediterranean region. In some countries, such as Japan, the number of cases has increased for 12 consecutive weeks, and the positivity rate and emergency department in the United States have increased. The rate of medical treatment continues to rise, and the number of cases in Russia, Greece, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, China, Malaysia and Thailand is still high." ... As the epidemic at home and abroad continues, and more than 91% of confirmed domestic complications and deaths have not been vaccinated against COVID-19, we call on those who have not yet been vaccinated against COVID-19 to get vaccinated as soon as possible."

Using an overseas Debit Card to minimise paying tax for those of us staying over 180 days
You could be right, I suppose it's all down to interpretation, hence the reason I have created this topic. I might here things I don't like to here, i.e. what you are suggesting, however It sounds correct, others will also put their 2 bobs worth in, and we might find an alternative solution. So far, I see I can claim around 300,000 baht as deductions before I start paying tax, that said, might have to look at transferring around 300,000 baht to wife's account and then see what else I can come up with, because the 1st 300,000 baht for me is tax free using deductions. Perhaps the card can be used for say up to 400,000 baht for grocery shopping, petrol for the car etc over a year, providing I don't have to pay 5% that some retailers charge on debit cards, more research required. -

Cambodia visa extension Question
Thanks again very much, Sheryl. I will heed your advice and apply for the e-visa. And if that somehow fails (which I don't expect), then I will go for the visa on arrival as a back-up. Then after a month in the country, I will renew the visa for a further 30 days. I am already looking forward to the trip. Thanks for making it easier. -

I like JD Vance
You have to like JD Vance at the GOP convention blaming Biden, Senator Biden then, for the Iraq WMD invasion poochscrew. Republicans howled in support. Bush, Cheney & Rummy; The Deathstar Twins, Neocons, etc. were completely ignored/forgotten as if they never existed. A classic Republican moment. Fake news and ball face lying is so much a part of what Republicans stand for these days, why not apply it to, and rewrite, history?! JD Vance understands this, and seized the moment to expand the BS-ery. A man for our times.- 1
