Do you know your wife/girlfriends body count?
You're reading the newly feminised version of the bible. It used to be "No man can serve two masters" -

Miserable Expats Who Can’t Stop Complaining About Thailand but Never Leave
I think you raise a very good point, if you never leave Thailand and travel around, you just don't have any perspective on your life here. I have the good fortune of leaving Thailand at least twice a year for trips back to America, in addition to some travel around the region, and every time I leave Thailand I'm looking forward to coming back. Every time. -

Crime Midwife Arrested in Manila for Fatal Circumcision Incident
Good point. Perhaps not widely known is that boys are not circumcized at birth in the Philippines, but they are circumcized at about 20 years old (not 10 years old) and the circumcision is very often performed by totally unqualified / untrained people (99% women). Often an old 'aunty' from the local community using basic knives, sewing scissors etc. There is no legal requirement for the 'cutter' to be qualified or registered. The result is often ugly, often leaving large floppy areas of flesh mid way long the penis shaft. -

Economy Trump's Tariff Troubles: Thai Academic Sounds Alarm on Key Issues

"Boo hoo - it's unfair!" What's unfair about a level playing field? Get over it. You don't get to bend the United States over a stump and have your way with them regarding US imports anymore. Learn to compete on the world stage. Btw, your citizen benefit by having cheaper imported goods. -

Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) between Thailand and Australia
Thai tax is the least of people's problem. It's the 30% from $0 to $135,000 that's going to "bite." As for "hunting down retirees" that's exactly the reason they MAY bring in the requirement to supply a Certificate of Clearance at extension time. It means the expat presents to the TRD office, thus, no hunting down needed. No Certificate of Clearance, no extension, simple. Before you ask, why would they do that, ask yourself why wouldn't they do that? When farang and money are involved, anything is possible in Thailand. -

Economy Trump's Tariff Troubles: Thai Academic Sounds Alarm on Key Issues
Example of global trade-America isn't the only market. On June 30, 2025, Canada did the unthinkable: it cut off its daily 8.8 billion cubic feet gas flow to the US, a supply once worth $8 billion a year, and instead Canada Cuts US Gas, and Trump Furious as Shipments Head to China, Japan, South Korea.
