A Cultural Battle Within MAGA: Musk and Ramaswamy Clash with Hard Right Over Immigration
“That was in the 60s. Since then woke has won and US schools IMO produce mediocre results. No kids want to be a mathematician now, aspiring to be in "media".” Ramaswamy points the finger at something that is the antithesis of ‘woke’. Refer OP. -

Where can Thais get help against a scammer?
There's no harm in doing any of that and it protects her. Though - that won't protect her from future scams... so she has to understand, do not send money to anyone ever... unless she instigates a purchase etc - Changing Bank will be easy... - Changing phone number will be easy, although other's who have her number will be unable to contact her in future and she will get just as many cold and scam calls - but they will be less advanced. - Changing LINE messenger will be the hardest as most of her contacts will be on that, she could keep the LINE messenger (if its registered to a login and not a phone number - but thats another step to go through). - She can just block Scammer on LINE - that doesn't stop another from contacting her, but she's alert to this by now and can just block any new attempt. Thx, didn't think of that. This is the most important point for her... - Never send anyone money if she is not 100% certain and has not instigated a purchase etc (even then, be extremely careful) - Hang up on any calls where she doesn't know the other party in person - Never respond to any messages on Messaging services from those she does not know -

Introduction to Personal Income Tax in Thailand
I agree with your comment.I wonder however what the consequences will be for those who simply ignore the updated tax regime.It could be, since the Thai tax system works on an honour system, that they continue to fly under the radar with no real world consequences at all.Even a tax link with visa extensions could take a few years to be implemented.I doubt whether the RD regards moderately well off elderly expats as a priority. But i could be wrong and personally am playing it very safe. -

Ramble On!
So are porn posts, with Frisco Kid as the main contributor. I thought I could be disgusting, he's at least two levels above (sic) me. -

Looming Crisis: Private Schools Face Closures Amid VAT Hike
Half of independent schools are run by companies who exist as profit-making enterprises. Imo nothing wrong with that. However, why should these companies - or their customers (the parents) - be exempted from paying VAT on the provision of these services when profit generating companies in other sectors are not? The remaining half of independent schools are classified as charitable institutions. As charitable institutions, they enjoy significant financial benefits which is fair enough. However, again I don't understand why these institutions - or their customers - should be exempt from VAT. If these institutions are brought into the public sector the costs will have to be borne by the state in the same way that all public sector service provision is. Of course, the opportunity to attend these schools - st the child meeting any 'special needs' criteria - should then be open to all children within the catchment area. -

Where can Thais get help against a scammer?
I nearly got caught out in the UK... A very convincing scam. I'd just listed a car on Auto-trader and within minutes I received a call from Auto-trader, stating I'd just made a payment of £xx.x for the advert... but it didn't go through... Could I give the card details again... Sure, I said, I'll call you back on the Official Autotrader number... The woman (very well spoken) got irritated with me, that was when I first realised it might be a scam !!!.. They are often very convincing... I never click on a link in an e-mail etc. BUT - the British Government, send out e-mails with links to click !!! - performance survey etc (after a recent passport renewal) - they must be stupid if they think people will click on a link, rather, only the naive ones will. So, I can't tell them how terribly they did as I don't want to click on a link !!!... Win win for them, only the mentally feckless can give them feedback !!!
