KBank International Transfers
So we must say YES to Income from working in Thailand otherwise transfers are not allowed and to avoid being pestered further for a WP what transfer objectives are allowed? I am trying to transfer to an overseas investing account, but that option is not shown on the menu? What do you recommend to allow multiple trouble free transfers for someone on a retirement extension?

KBank International Transfers
I have never done a transfer OUT of Thailand in my life, but it looks easy on the KBank web site and seems to cost 250THB to send any USD equivalent amounts - I am trying to send to the US. The online process specifically asks to check a box stating "Income earned from working in Thailand" and if I don't check that it will not process the wire. So I simply check it and it looks like the wire will go, but I haven't tried yet. Question: Why do they ask I check this box, is it just to show the receiver all taxes are paid? I don't really know where the money came from - its been collecting over the years in my account from all over the world including working in Thailand at times years ago? Do people simply check "Income earned from working in Thailand" to enable these transfers to go even if they never worked in Thailand?

90 Day Online Reporting Window
Why is that a problem? I understood if its pending its in the immigration queue - out of our control? I thought I read on here somewhere CW is taking weeks to process these at the moment, so their problem not ours?

Whats gone wrong with the Asean Now tweets?
Tried it on another PC with Linux and fresh install of Firefox, same problem on X - no explanatory text about the tweets, photos only. On Android devices, the Tweets look OK (as in your posts above).

Microphone Problem On My Laptop
Is this perhaps a Skype related problem only or do you get bad microphone on other apps also? For me I cannot figure out how to get Skype mic sound to work on a laptop these days whereas all my other sound apps work fine. I resorted to making Skype calls from an Android phone instead!

Whats gone wrong with the Asean Now tweets?
Well I am confused if it is just me. I tried it on multiple browsers on my PC, went to another PC with a clean install of Win11 and made a new X account, and still cannot get the text as you have using Edge browser. All my other received tweets from other accounts look normal. Very strange.

Whats gone wrong with the Asean Now tweets?
Whats gone wrong with the Asean Now tweets? In the past the tweet would at least include a semblance of what the subject was about before we clicked on a link if it interested us. In the two examples below from today (and they are all like this now), there is no clue of subject content at all on the link. The second tweet is just a photo only with no information at all. Why would anyone want to subscribe to that on X?

Special digital savings accounts available for foreigners?
What exactly is a "Special digital savings account"? I have paid most of my bills from my KBank phone app for a few years now, does that count?

Schwab International account - anyone done this from Thailand?
I notice the Schwab web site allows non US citizens, living overseas to open an account such as with a Thailand address. Has anyone got any experience of this from Thailand and found it worthwhile or something to avoid? Thanks for any feedback specifically from those who haven't got accounts in the US.

My Google Browser.
To change the default browser in Windows 11, you can follow these steps: Open Settings: Click on the Start button or press the Windows key on your keyboard to open the Start menu. Click on the Settings icon, which looks like a gearwheel. Navigate to Apps: In the Settings window, click on the Apps category on the left sidebar. Default Apps: In the Apps settings, click on Default apps in the left sidebar. Change Default Browser: Scroll down until you find the Web browser option. Click on the current default browser (likely Microsoft Edge), and a list of installed web browsers will appear. Select Chrome: Click on Google Chrome (or the browser you want to set as the default), and Windows will confirm the change. Confirm Change: Windows will ask you if you want to switch to the selected browser. Click Switch anyway to confirm.

Works fine here with Win11, qBittorrent and any browser (FF,Edge etc) to get the magnet links, make sure you have latest versions installed, and re-install them if needed.- New "Income" tax law 2024
Maybe you are thinking of capital gains on that money? This has been taxable in the form of WHT every 6 months for a few years already.- Updating Maps in Toyota CHR
Everyone I imagine. Android maps works. Even has satellite imagery to see real buildings and live traffic conditions. Whatever Toyota fits is obsolete as soon as it leaves the show room. - Magnet links not working Windows 11
