Where to travel in Thailand in October
The exchange rate helped Hummin. I like good wines and I found in the supermarket at about same price I buy in Thailand. 5* Hotel, pizza was 300 baht, Aus grain fed tenderloin wrapped in bacon 600 baht, you can eat at local restaurants for half that. Taxi rides 26 baht with Grab. -

Ukraine ... Enlighten yourself
Anyone who claims any army other than the Russian army defeated the Wehrmacht is talking utter and absolute nonsense. That's not an "insult" to anyone, that is just stating realistic facts. -

And so the exodus of quality expats begins. This time it's personal
I also would not like to live in Phuket. Chiang Mai is much more tolerable and has more to offer, so you can stay longer here. -

Are Older Men in Thailand Trading Love for Financial Ruin
In that case, you are only mixing with poor people and it must be a poor neighborhood you are living in re-climbing into a pickup truck. You do not see the other half of Thailand where people live in nice houses like the Thais living in my area, Phuket, (99% Thai households) no one is climbing into the back of pickup trucks here, they are climbing into their nice new family cars. So that explains where you are getting your one-sided information from. If I went to England and only ever went into pubs and nowhere else I would probably arrive at a false conclusion and think every English person drinks daily and no one works. -

Ukraine ... Enlighten yourself
Absolutely and utter nonsense and an insult to many brave men and women. Unlike you, I won't downplay the contribution by any of those brave individuals who fought against Nazism irrespective of their nationality, I'll merely ask where was the Russian army in 1939 - 41? Rhetorical question: Answer is they were in cahoots with the Wehrmacht and were busy carving up Poland. Russia's role in the fight against Nazism from mid-1941 onwards should not be under-estimated or forgotten, but then neither should her previous collusion with the Nazis. -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
I don't understand why people try to overcomplicate things, the basic process is this: 1 - The Taxpayer spends time in Thailand, becomes tax resident and spends money here, derived from a potential variety of sources. 2 - The Taxpayer self determines whether the money that was spent is assessable and either files a tax return and reports the income or decides it isn't necessary. 3 - The TRD examines data from a variety of in country and potentially overseas sources and initiates investigations based on what it sees. Nowhere in the above is a step that eliminates income because it's too difficult to determine if funds are assessable or not. Nowhere in the above is a step that eliminates funds or people just because TRD can't immediately see all the detailed information they might want or need. If the TRD wants further information about a particular taxpayers return or spending patterns/habits, using ANY funds remittance mechanism, cash, TT, debit card, credit card etc etc, the TRD will tell the taxpayer to supply that information. If the taxpayer refuses or cannot, and the TRD suspects even loosely that funds have been remitted that were assessable and they were not declared, an estimated tax liability will be presented to the taxpayer, based on what the TRD sees and thinks. If the TRD believes that Bernie from Bolton has been living in Pattaya year round, paying all his expenses using his UK Barclaycard and TRD has evidence to support some of that, Bernie will get a bill. If Bernie has a problem with that and thinks the TRD is incorrect, there are tax tribunals and appeals processes for Bernie to use to convince the TRD of the error of their ways and prove the funds used to pay the CC bill, were not tax assessable. Now, has any of the above ever happened....dunno, nobody on AN knows the answer, they can only guess. Will the above ever happen? Of course it will, the choice of remittance mechanism doesn't change the assessability of a remittance although some will believe it does and will try to take advantage. Will people self declare credit card transactions on a tax returns? Who knows, again, we can only guess and assume. -

Up to you. What game though? I am completely serious. Without your granddad the Russian army would still have defeated the Wehrmacht. Your granddad played a bit part. The Russian army played the central role. -

A good hotdog
Betargo now make a suite of German sausages that are passable. I agree, while TGM have some okay imitations of German sausages, which are the best in the world, they cannot get it exactly right. If you want the real deal Tops sometimes sell actual German sausages, prices are eye watering though, above 500 Baht for a pack. They are excellent though. Otherwise, if value is a concern the Betargo suite of German sausages is the best option. TGM do a good Chorizo sausage though. -

Why is the MAGA movement so susceptible to crazy conspiracy theories?
OK. He tried to prevent the lawful and peaceful transfer of power after he lost the election, after having sworn a solemn oath to uphold and protect the Constitution of the US of A. That (and several other things) makes him a traitor. -

Proof of Life
More poor advice from you. JP's can only perform their duty in their State of jurisdiction. They can not perform JP duties whilst interstate, or overseas. Here's the NSW JP Handbook. https://dcj.nsw.gov.au/documents/legal-and-justice/justice-of-the-peace/the-role-of-jps/jp-handbook-full.pdf "You must be physically present in NSW to exercise your functions as a JP except in certain circumstances when you are delivering JP functions via audio-visual link (see page 14). " The JP should have know this and declined to witness the document. Also, it invalidates your document. If they looked into that document, you would have been asked to resubmit, and the JP may have been stripped of their certification. They don't really have to, in order to have the Vet pension cut off, do they? The Embassy informs Births, Deaths and Marriages, and from there, other government agencies are informed, and payments stopped. However, I have been told there is usually two, or possibly three, more pension payments after death. Most likely due to the bureaucracy, with cross referencing etc. -

Any evidence of immigration - More lenient now on multiple Visa Exempts?
Some recent reports indicate they are not any more lenient at the airports with longer-stay visitors on tourist-type entries than before. Those with longer-stay histories would be wise to use their "service" for this: ... or stick to entering by-land - unless/until it goes beyond a "one night out" rule.
