Re: new tax for all foreigners...
The bottom line after all the rhetoric spouted by the Thai Government which as usual falls short on providing any en=actable policy , today many Financial Gurus and even Thai accountants have zero idea what is occurring legislative wise. So any advice is currently pure guesswork.
