Gifting the Spouse
I've no intention of trying to find it right now. I just remember seeing that gifting looked like a possibility - talking strictly on a circumvention basis, only for that thought to be struck down in flames by something I read later. I thought it was official but I wouldn't swear to that. In any case, anyone thinking of gifting should seek professional advice at the time. -

Is It Better to Date a “6” Than a “10” in Thailand?
Maybe you missed the word 'unsolicited' or perhaps you're projecting your own experience with women, but whatever the reason you're determined to be negative, and that's your choice, but it does not reflect my personal experience in Thailand. -

Gorilla Smuggling Plot Destined for Thailand Discovered at Istanbul Airport
Don't cry for just one gorilla unless we are willing to do this for all species: Set aside HALF of the Earth in order to preserve biodiversity. I don't cry for no gorilla. Read EO Wilson, why not? -

Do you get on well with Thai People?
Waist 38 inches, what's yours? Santa suits are too hot for this climate, and the reindeer would all have heat stroke. -

The Palestinians are already in their own country. Why would they want to leave? -

Body scan on international arrival
I suspect all incoming luggage is X-Ray scanned before reaching the carousel. When you exit the secure part of the airport you have the choice of passing through the "Nothing to Declare" exit. If you are observant you will see RFID type detectors (same as you see that prevents shoplifting in stores) that you have to walk past before leaving the secure area. Most people pass these without any issues, however, I suspect if the previous X-Ray showed something suspicious the security person monitoring the X-Ray would place an RFID tag onto/into the luggage which sets off the alarm at exit. This would be preferable to the X-Ray person examining the luggage which would hold things up and also because there is no physical connection with an actual passenger and the luggage. This is just my personal theory and I have no proof. I might be testing my theory in January when I return to Bangkok with a collection of shoes and bags that my Thai wife left behind in Australia last time she was there. I hope I won't be slugged some form of tax or tariff on her shoes and designer bags. 😟 -

Thailand as home, roaming the world tax free - the pipe dream
Sorry to say, but you are wrong @newbee2022 EU countries do not consider you a tax resident after you have moved out and stayed outside for a certain period. In my case 3 years. -
