Horrific Bus Fire in Thailand Sparks National Debate on Safety
Now it is a hot item because of this tragedy but as usual in Thailand, nothing will change, as you need a good policeforce for it that knows how to do their job instead of just checking the payment of taxes... an non corrupt institution that checks all vehicles and doesn't give the papers to pay taxes, and the willingness of the Thai people to stand up against others that bring lives in dangers, for example crazy minivan drivers, taxis, etc ..So nothing will change because nobody will start to do something -

British National Killed in Sattahip Motorcycle Accident
Maybe some 66 year olds on here or younger bad mouthing his age for riding that bike. Probably they are incompetent and inept in controlling a higher powered bike at that age. I know several in their 80ś that ride similar bikes the age comments are very stupid. -

British National Killed in Sattahip Motorcycle Accident
I don´t know what you are trying to imply. That is would be dangerous for foreigners to ride a motorbike in Thailand? I assume you are not a rider, or maybe not even been trying to ride a bike. The problem, is the unexperienced riders that also think they are the king of the road with a couple of beers inside. But, just an unexperienced rider will be enough. For riders like me, and many other on this forum we do not have any problem riding bikes in Thailand. A little bit same as climbing Mount Everest, without even trying a practice climbing wall ever. It´s mindsets like that, which will get people hurt or worse. -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
You're right, not the best choice of words on my part. Well known, significant, farang friendly, prominent, well regarded take your pick. But it doesn't change the fact that it's a well regarded law firm, so if we're going to pay attention to what the other say, we need to pay attention to this one also. -

Trump lost the respect of veterans – including me. He's a risk to our democracy.
Not me! I am one year younger than Trump, but unlike Trump I volunteered and served my country. The sooner Trump is removed from the American national scene the better for both the United States and the world. -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
Take this in the context of the future and what is being asked for. In this case, Negative Income Tax, as requested by the Finance Permanent Secretary. What is negative income tax? A system where anyone earning under the income (not tax) threshold is paid support by government, based on their earnings. It's not welfare, it's work related, the further you are away from an optimal income, the more the government pays you. In order for the system to work, everyone must report all their earnings, above the tax reporting threshold, otherwise they can't participate. This supports the desire to have anyone earning, even if there is no tax to pay. The same system is being explored in many countries as a way to eradicate poverty and to increase the tax take. https://www.itax.in.th/media/negative-income-tax/ https://www.bangkokpost.com/business/general/2861888/official-backs-negative-income-tax-concept#:~:text=Finance permanent secretary Lavaron Sangsnit,falls below a specified threshold. -

Woman Fatally Shoots Popular Female DJ Over Debt Dispute in Chana, Songkhla
As explained to me by a Thai lady ....... 1. The police aren't very good, you'll probably get away with it. 2. For poor people Thai jail isn't much worse than Thai life.
