What USA banks use IACH with Thailand?
Im not expert in these matters tell you what has work for me. Years ago I had my S.S. payment stopped be wire to BB bank in New York. Instead had the deposit with my other pension sent to my brokerage account which is attached to a checking account that provides a Debit card if used refunds back end of month. From that account usually I use FireFox with a VPN on to access the CS account to view. When I log in to Wise to transfer I turn off the VPN. Along eith CS. i have other bank listed including my credit union account I also have two BB accounts. In transferring I use the CS debit card ACH method, for reason I scroll down down select " living ecpense " Comes over each time as FTT although I dont use monthly. If one do a transfer under an Thousand like 900 USD, in you Thailand bsnk within secondsc Never had a problem can also excess using CS debit card ATM.

The freedom to move: how Bangkok is improving its sidewalks
This is just another item placed into the budget so they have another avenue to skim and skim off the top like a regular paycheck for the leaders. First, even if that was the case you have to have a plan, the plan needs to have a standard as to how to build the sidewalks, width, etc, and proper use for Utility Easement. You can't just lay bricks on top of the sand, leave poles in the middle, wires hanging everywhere, and plant trees that will grow far too large damaging the sidewalk. Even if they were to make it happen no one checks off the work or comes back to check.

Vitamins in Pattaya
Six or seven that is nothing! You can buy here like mentioned Facino but bottles based on number of Tablets inside to price is expensive. I usually buy at Costco or Walmart once a year for myself and family been stopped just explained did the math per day foe a year number of family members wave go away being stopped is very slim. Can order I-Herb bit higher but you dont need to lug the weight.

Wanting to start a long term investment for Thai partner…to make sure they’re looked after.
Bit younger you are in your 70's then where are you living in the west abroad or in Thailand. Working again where and doing what if abroad does she want to stay if can or return to Thailand. So Im going to assume! Western ideas and suggestion if living in Thailand her level of education sorry but dont say Unniversity if she is wouldnt be with you 🤣. All the ideas being thrown out are great but does she have an understanding to these suggestion and what they are my experience living with Thai the % is very slim. If she is 50-60 she is already done in Thailand, I would if not already make sure she has a roof over her head. Maybe a mix use property where the two of you can live later herself. For example like Pattaya small piece of land house set in from main road in front shop house that rent for 10-15,000 baht a month. I like the suggestion of land but at her age? Farming it hard work. Also as noted there something called a life estate you can deed it so as long as you are alive can live on the property. There are options but without answer tough only guessing
