Jos Sanders, exhibit Thailand Revenues 1939 -1992, Bangkok September 2026.

This is a 5 frame, 80 pages exhibit shown at the Thai Chinese Stamp Exhibition held in Bangkok Thailand September 18-20, 2026. It covers four areas of Thai revenues, hardly ever shown at any exhibition in this depth and detail. It covers Entertainment tax, Social Security tax, Match tax and Alien Registration tax.
