Hacked? The stupid girl just told them the login and password, they have changed it, transferred money to Bangkok Bank and that is all the "hacking", just pure stupidity. I wonder why they provide internet banking to people who did not finish more than 6 years of a basic school.

Indeed, if you select exactly the worst range, as you can see in http://goldprice.org/charts/history/gold_all_data_o_cad.png. Gold in CAD is up 130% in last 5 years and I very doubt it will return to the 2004 level.

I hope they will refund tickets in case the airport is closed again due to the floods. Anyone knows what their policy says in cases like this?
-
I can confirm this, too, rental agreement and tourist visa is OK.

The inflation is a real killer and you can only dream to buy gold or any other metal for the same amount of papers called dollars or THB as a few years ago, it will never happen. Everything is getting more expensive, even som tam.
-
Naam, with all respect to you, comparing 1980 with the steady rise of gold for decades is silly. Or do you think that money in 1980 were of the same value as today, with all the quantitative easing a.k.a. printing money from the thin air? Be a realist, the prices of metals or any commodities are only going to rise in the long term as is rising the amount of money in the system. Temporary short-time movements are not important, it is a normal correction.

There was a similar pattern around 2008 where the price looked like about to fall but then it skyrocketed to more than double. Similarly in EUR. Not everyone buys in USD, however, even in USD this proves to be a good investment in the long term (if you plan to buy and sell in a few months, there are better options, I agree, but the main reason to buy gold is to protect the value in the long term, not a short term speculative investment).

Whoever questions the value of gold, especially here in Thailand, just have a good look at the history of gold price in THB. If you still deny it, go back to the basic school.

"allowed up to 100 percent"
Only "up to" 100%. Well what if I want to own 110%? dam_n xenophobes!
If you want to pay 110%, why not, you can get a certificate that you own it for 110% (I am sure they will be happy to provide it :-)

It is Huawei U8180.

This is different, craigt3365, you show examples of discounts that some residents can get in your country (like the half price admission to the Royal Pavilion), but here in Thailand we are speaking of a substantial surcharge (200% in case of that beach in Sattahip) compared with the standard price!
-
Thanks all for the input, so it is 80 THB for farangs and 30 THB for Thais, regardless if you are a resident or a tourist. Yes, it is rasistic, I hope they will impose same rules for Thais living in Europe and USA.

There are two options for a residency letter:
1. the embassy
2. immigration. But immigration will often not issue, unless one is making 90 day reports. Otherwise they have no record of you staying at an address.
Some DMV offices accept a letter from regular police or the local amphur or teesabaan.
I used the rental agreement for the house I stay in, no problem at all to prove the address.

I have bought 3 already, 2 for my friends and 1 for me, very good price for the phone...

Tesco in Pattaya Nua still has an Android phone (Huawei) for 1990 baht incl. Wifi/3G and GPS.

I have got some more news from http://www.rd.go.th/publish/6045.0.html:
Dividends
Taxpayer who resides in Thailand and receives dividends or shares of profits from a registered company or a mutual fund which tax has been withheld at source at the rate of 10 per cent, may opt to exclude such dividend from the assessable income when calculating PIT. However, in doing so, taxpayer will be unable to claim any refund or credit as mentioned in 2.4.
It means that dividends taxed at 10% (or more) can be excluded from the personal income tax.

I suppose you will get a stamp in the new passport only since the old one is no longer valid.
-
Did anyone manage to get the Thai price for the ticket (30 baht) with a Thai driving license? I keep being refused by the soldiers and every time must pay the racist price of 80 baht.
-
You are terribly wrong, if the banking system collapses, gold will only profit.
-
I suppose this will be available later, let's hope not much later
-
Pretty cheap compared to some other countries.
In Cambodia, it is $20 for 30 days, and it is a real visa on arrival, even at the land borders. So yes, it is way overpriced.
-
Many thanks for all the valuable inputs. I am going to make a bank account abroad, send the dividends in December, and wire them from that personal account in January to a Thai bank account to fulfill the requirements. All should be OK this way, I hope

But I speak here of a Thai resident and citizen, not US one.
