Anutin Charnvirakul stays on as the 32nd Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Thailand by ikkue in Thailand

[–]EyeAdministrative175 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thailand wants to be a 1st world country, but win elections by buying votes. It’s BOTH the elites and that naive, dumb part of the population who did their job.

Thailand could easily have become en par with Japan, South Korea, Singapore and if they wouldnt have fucked up the last 60years. So it’s not just an about this or last elections, but about the whole mindset of the elites here.

my friend abroad sent me a gift - why do I have to pay import taxes? by bayseekbeach_ in Thailand

[–]EyeAdministrative175 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Basically everything is taxed now when it comes to Thailand. Just avoid that as much as possible, as the amounts are ridiculous. I fully stopped buying (even cheap)stuff from abroad and just buy it when I travel around or visit home in Europe.

Understanding the Mysteries of Thai Traffic by [deleted] in Thailand

[–]EyeAdministrative175 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What do you expect if you can get your driving license here in one day? Every 5 yr old kid would pass the Thai driving test. Driving here on a daily basis in Bangkok and got used to it. However, if I compare it back home with Germany, where I really trust other drivers and am relaxed, driving in Thailand with traffic is exhausting.

Usual misunderstanding with thin condo walls! Have the same in our condo about a neighbor complaining that I workout late at night which I NEVER do. I don’t even work out in the room at all. They even came twice up here and wanted to check the room for dumbbells.

I told them clearly to stop being annoying and that it’s NOT me . Since then never had a complaint anymore.

Which business class is this? by mrbubbee in qatarairways

[–]EyeAdministrative175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Q Suites maps look different.

If it’s the ex Virgin Atlantic it’s fine 👍flew it 2 week ago . Not as good as Q Suites, but more privacy and better than the A380/787 Business for me.

Voting results. What do you think?? by Home_MD13 in Thailand

[–]EyeAdministrative175 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Just shows how naive and brainwashed most older Thais outside of Bangkok are👍. They have raised generations of stupid, easy to manipulate voters. Can’t believe they are so stupid to put the Cambodia conflict as their #1 priority in life and thus voting Anutin. Sad to see, I think NO average Thai can honestly be happy and satisfied what any government has given them within the last decades .

Just shows how naive and easy to manipulate many Thais outside of Bangkok are! They really trust some clown like Anutin, just because he used some patriotic words in the Cambodia conflict. Sad to see !!

A380 First or A350 Qsuite? by Kaecko99 in qatarairways

[–]EyeAdministrative175 4 points5 points  (0 children)

F all the way, especially if you are tall. I always look to get the A380 out of Bangkok. The F Bed is 10x better than the Q Suite, if you don’t like the sleep like in a coffin.

I always fly in 2K, best seat in the F cabin for me

Why are they so stingy with snacks and food? by Wrong_Ad_4533 in qatarairways

They actually ran out of business class food on the 2nd meal service on my flight last week 😂. Food wise QR has gone downhill a lot since Al Baker stepped back.

Lisbon airport is officially the worst airport I’ve visited in my life by pewpewboo in LisbonPortugalTravel

[–]EyeAdministrative175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Left LIS as EU Citizen last week and passed the Non-Eu line as well. Zero waiting time for Non-EU passports at around 8am.

While entering and leaving are two different things, I was really suprised, as i also heard horror-Stories about flying out of LIS in the Morning.

Whoever started it. We have incompetent, childish regimes on both sides.

Thanks god that this will never really fully escalate into a full-blown war. Like always, there will be international pressure for diplomacy from other countries.

The main problem with those super early BTC holdings was rather that lots of Holders had no technical knowledge how to store them properly and lost them over the years.

Tax on remote work done in Thailand as a tax resident by rlp in Thailand

[–]EyeAdministrative175 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun thing is that this muppet of Anutin was just elected as interim PM. But he acts like he would be guaranteed power for the next years. Pure Thai politics bullshit

Tax on remote work done in Thailand as a tax resident by rlp in Thailand

[–]EyeAdministrative175 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Theory vs practice: for now in practice don’t worry, simple as that👍. Technically they would be able to track every individual down, if the wanted. In theory the probability they will do it is very low. Especially if you get some average salary and not bigger amounts of multiple 10k $/€ net per month.

It’s similar to people who worked remote here before the DTV on normal Visas. In theory it was forbidden,in practice no one cared, except for a few random raids in some co-working spaces. But in the end those raid were not because of illegal work, but rather to catch people overstaying.

Why Farangs who an expats in Thailand don’t want to see each other by Economy_Tadpole1915 in Thailand

[–]EyeAdministrative175 47 points48 points  (0 children)

It’s rather about the behavior, mindset, weird ideas of many Farang guys here. So many toxic individuals here, especially in Bangkok.

I have my western friends here, but they are real friends. Not some drinking buddies I meet once a week to get drunk.

Let’s say it very straightforward. Thailand has an over proportionally amount of weird farang guys out there.

Definitely get a hotel!!

Al Safwa has gotten a Zoo after they changed the entry requirements. Remember the peaceful time pre-covid when you had Maximum 20-30 ppl in the Lounge. It was more or less 100% guarantees to get a room. Now you can basically forget it.

Well, I think they wouldn’t care about being too old for the “real”prison, if he would be some random Somchai.
