Sorry, that's was Phetchabun IO

Last month I applied for an extension based on marriage using the bt40,000pm method using Wise. Normally i use retirement for which i have no problem. My SCB statement showed the transactions coming from the Kbank so the IO said not ok, had to show coming from my Australian bank. I finally printed out 27x2 page Wise transaction confirmations and gave them that. These show the transfers coming from my Australian bank to SCB with a note saying that they go via the Kbank. The application goes from my local IO to Chiang Mai for ratification so that's why they were picky. I have to wait for 30 days to see the result. I also had to undergo a visit from immigration (bt2,000) as I had changed from retirement to marriage. Bank to retirement next year!

And me

Same with SCB

Because they were thrown out probably, not wearing seat belts!

It was for the displaced civilians as well. Not just the troops.

I use Yolla. It let's you call land line numbers in other countries as well as mobiles and is very cheap.

I know it's probably off topic but just to back you up i found Pi Mai to be one of the most awing places i have been to.

No you don't hear 'then all' because the successful ones have no need to declare themselves or wine about how they've been duped. Including myself i have many friends, both here and in my home country, who are enjoying they're lives married to thai ladies who don't really want to be reminded of they origins.

And i-phone and i-pad instead of cell phone and tablet which seems to be the thing in fiction novels now. I think the authors get a kick back

Atually you can send net codes to a Thai number from CBA. I do that. But you need to phone the bank and get them to change the number held in their data base. You cannot do it yourself online.

Live in Phetchabun, half way to CM from Bangkok. My 2 story house swayed back and forth for about 1 min. No damage. Quite frightening. 32 6 metre piles onto bedrock,2 per column. Could have surfed on my fish pond. Took me back to my days in Wellington NZ

No point in lowering prices if it sends you out of business. As a thai restaurant owner, admittedly in Melbourne, the above reference to 5% profit is probably a little high. What people here are focusing on is the rise in prices without looking at the cause. Overheads nowadays have risen exhorbitantly, particularly salaries, energy costs, insurance, rent. Owners need to take some action to keep afloat.

And also, that's not what the law says!

When i asked that question i was told that, because of the narrow roads in Thailand, they want to clear the main road first so they let the right hand turners go first. Hope that provides some sort of answer to your question.
