  1. "In a peer-reviewed pre-proof accepted for publication in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, researchers presented two cases that demonstrate, for the first time, the ability of COVID-19 vaccines to penetrate the fetal-placental barrier and reach the inside of the uterus. Additionally, researchers detected spike protein in placental tissue, indicating the bioactivity of the mRNA in reaching the placenta." https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0002937824000632 No link whatsoever of course with the steep decline of births observed in many countries in 2021, 2022 and 2023... And remember that they told us in 2021 that the "vaccines" STAYED in the location of the injections... It's funny how "science" can evolve... in just a few years... Enjoy your products "safe and effective".
  2. What's the purpose of your insults ? To hide your fear ? Let's forget about thoses "white clots". Are you aware that the LARGEST VACCINE EFFECTS STUDY has just been published ? 99 millions of vaccinated individuals. Findings ? Risks for myocarditis, Moderna 2nd dose : 6.1 times higher Risks for myocarditis, Pfizer 1 dose : 2.78 times higher Risks for myocarditis, Pfizer 2nd dose : 2.86 times higher Risk for pericarditis, Astra Zeneca, 3rd dose : 6.91 times higher Risk for Swelling of brain, and spinal cord, Moderna, 1st dose : 3.78 times higher Risk for blood clots, Astrazeneca : 3.23 times higher etc. Enjoy your products "safe and effective". https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-13100755/Largest-Covid-vaccine-study-finds-shots-linked-small-increased-risk-neurological-blood-heart-disorders-extremely-rare.html So now you might be able to understand that yes... with such higher risks... vaccinated people were wounded and some of them even died, inevitably.
  3. People are confused. But actually, the problem is... very simple. It's politics. Ask yourselves : who is behind this obsession against alcohol ? Who is pushing for always more rules and restrictions (times for sales, but after the military extended the ban... for religious days, or even election days). The times restrictions come from the 70s. The story about "kids at school" was a cover (after). Ask yourselves : why Thaksin, when elected prime minister, REACTIVATED this inane rule ? Yes he did. You forgot this very important piece of information. Before Thaksin, this "rule" was long forgotten ! Thaksin was always a challenger to the establishment. He had to give "pledges" to powerfull groups. We do have in Thailand powerfull "temperance leagues" (like in the USA before the Prohibition). And those leagues are linked to conservative groups, obviously. I remind you that Thaksin was the one... who decided to close nightlife at midnight or 2 AM (before him, Bangkok was partying 24/24). It's the same logic. He had to, in order to rally support within the establishment. 25 years later ? Back to square one. They want to stop this madness... but they dont really want it. 😉 Because that would displease some powerful groups. So what you think is sheer stupidity, is just the reflect of delicate political games. It's obvious that the current government is "walking on eggs"... Its position is very fragile... A huge mistake was done with the cannabis circus (Prayuth had to please his ally the Bhumjaithai Party, and probably he didn't really care)... So it's unlikely that anything would change on the alcohol front now. Last think : do you know that ThaiBev (the thai giant of beers and spirits)... can't be listed... on the THAI STOCK MARKET ? Rule again. Because alcohol ! So ThaiBev is listed... in Singapore. And ThaiBev, a thai company, gives dividends... to foreigners... This simple fact shows how "deep" the issue is...
  4. Why do you rely on... partial data ? A simple cold can indeed kill a very old individual who has heavy comorbidities... -what is a "Covid" patient ? Did they perform a PCR test ? Which sensitivity (number of CT) ? Or an antigen test ? -were they tested as well for regular respiratory pathologies (flu, pneumonia etc.) ? -how old where the hospitalized ? The patients with ventilators ? And those who died ? -the "11 death from Covid"... did they have comorbidities ? If yes, which ones ? Without those key informations... we know nothing... nothing relevant i mean. As for the "vaccine" issue... funny that nobody react. -On the 149 patients with ventilators, 104 were "vaccinated". -On the "11 deaths from Covid", 5 were "vaccinated". So much for the "protection" given, isn't it ? But again, without details those data are meaning less...
  5. This idea ("DTA = shield") is just false... in somes cases. A DTA aims to prevent to tax 2 TIMES the same income of the same amount. But it doesn't mean that one of the DTA's party... could not TAX MORE ! I gave this example (my situation), because it's very straightforward. -french national living in Thailand, full time -for the french tax department i am a "non resident" -for the thai tax department i am a "resident" (more than 180 days) -i earn dividends in France paid by a french company -i pay to the french tax department a flat income tax of 12,8 % (a french resident would pay.. 33 % instead because of very high "social security" taxes added to the income tax). -the Thailand/France DTA is very clear : the thai tax department will give me a TAX CREDIT of the amount paid in France (12,8 %)... but then could very well ask me to pay 35 % (their highest bracket) minus 12,8 = 22,2 % of thai income tax ! (but only if I send this money in Thailand, of course). Before the new rule... when sending the money to Thailand, I could very well "disguise" my dividend income into... "savings" (AKA income earned year -1). Case closed, no tax to pay in Thailand. With the new rule... the risk is obvious. I don't say that Thailand will do it... I just say that it would perfectly logical (and legal). Few understand that this little calendar rule (year -1) made Thailand... a real "tax paradise" (for us earning money abroad !). And when I say "us" i mean foreigners... and rich thai citizens as well !!!
  6. It's important to debunk the idea "Double taxation agreement = no problem". Because it's false. I give you a real exemple. A Thai tax resident who receives dividends from a company located in France... will pay automatically income tax of 12,8 % (to the french tax department). Yes, it's a flat rate (he could opt for variable rate, but it's another debate). (reminder : for the flat rate, a french tax resident... will pay 30 % on the same dividends, because he has 17,2 % of social security taxes added on top). So according to you, there is indeed a DTA between France and Thailand, and taxes have been ALREADY PAID (to the frenchs). So everything is okay. It's not. The franco-thai DTA says (article 23, 2 B) : Thailand grants a resident of Thailand receiving such income [dividends] from French sources a chargeable credit against Thai tax. This credit is based on the amount of tax paid on France, but it cannot exceed the fraction of the Thai tax corresponding to the ratio existing between the net income from French sources and the overall net income liable to Thai tax. In other words... sure the thai tax department will give you a "tax credit" (of the amount paid to the french)... but can tell you TO PAY MORE (aka 35 % - 12,8 %, in case of dividends higher than 4 millions THB). References : the DTA https://www.impots.gouv.fr/sites/default/files/media/10_conventions/thailande/thailande_convention-avec-la-thailande_fd_1970.pdf The thai tax rates : https://www.rd.go.th/english/6045.html Let's sink that : a DTA is designed to avoid to tax 2 TIMES.. THE SAME AMOUNT... But that doesn't mean that one of the 2 states could not tax MORE ! ;-) And rates can vary greatly between countries, and type of income, amount of income etc. So again, a DTA is not the iron clad guarantee that everything is and will be okay. Each individual must assess precisely his situation. The rule-loophole of "year + 1" (for the money coming into Thailand) was a blessing (for the case I've described, the thai resident with french dividends). But now the party is over (if they succeed to close this loophole or if they don't change their mind).
