And the winner is… Wine

Phuket Life / Dining

Sunday 28 January 2024 11:00 AM

In a long-awaited move, Thailand’s Move Forward Party is proposing swingeing reductions to the taxes ‒ and there are many ‒ on imported wine. Such measures fly in the face of official thinking which has for decades argued, dinosaur-like, in the following terms: 1) Thais do not drink wine – it is a ‘farang’ tipple; 2) the imported stuff is ridiculously expensive; 3) its consumption has a deleterious impact on the nation’s health; and 4) foreign wine competes directly with Thailand’s fledgling wine industry. OK? So let’s tax it heavily. At the very least, it thereby provides a hefty source of revenue for the nation’s coffers. Billions of baht every year.

Sunday 26 November 2023 11:00 AM

Hunger always comes after long swims at Surin Beach, and I found myself in that exact predicament. Luckily, I didn’t have to go far for some outstanding food; Millionaire Burgers is just a few steps away.
