So . Morally wrong . Or smart way to avoid tax?
Atlantis, any idea what is the latest legal position here about this? Or is it still a grey area ?
Sick of reading and seeing this hippy types and others gloating about how clever they are to be staying here illegally on a tourist visa and working on their blogs etc and not paying tax or anything .
Just curious is it just me or do others think it's wrong and have no sympathy when they get caught. Especially in Bali, the place is full of them.
Can't wait to see new legislation that forces them all to pay their taxes at least a minimum and get an IMTA / kitas etc .
Surely the Govt realizes how much money it is losing every year in lost tax revenue? Far more than they lose by upsetting some freeloaders who live in a kos and sit in Starbucks all day hogging the WiFi .
They will not lose the real tourists who come because most of these digital nomads don't have or spend money here anyway . That's why they are here and not in Dubai or Silicon Valley
