Treaty of Amity?

Can you elaborate? You've made transfers of a similar amount as recently as when? Then bang, "recently", a transfer was rejected? Was there any message about the rejection? Could you make the transfer using the web/pc-based iBanking site? Did the branch offer any document/public statement outlining this change? What was the amount? Amounts over 50,000 baht require facial recognition registration. Maybe contact customer service on 1333? No. I am an American and just made a transfer from BBL to SCB (my account) using the mobile app (on my "old" phone - I'm trying to register a "new" phone, without success to date.

Hit Man Netflix Richard Linklater's latest film. Based on a true story about an undercover "fake" hit man. More buzz for Glenn Powell. Great NOLA sights and sounds. Love some of the street signs/intersections. 9/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0g4cJ4NE8HA

Updated information, no clue if it is still accurate... 1. What devices are compatible with Bangkok Bank Mobile Banking? To enhance transaction security and application efficiency as well as support new features, upcoming Bangkok Bank Mobile Banking versions will only be supported on iOS version 13.0 & above and Android version 8.0 & above from March 21, 2024 onwards. https://www.bangkokbank.com/en/Personal/Digital-Banking/Bualuang-mBanking https://www.bangkokbank.com/en/Personal/Digital-Banking/Bualuang-mBanking/FAQ?utm_source=website&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=revamp-mb-lp-faqs-en

What did you do "at the ATM"? Again, as of this week when installing and trying to sign on to the mobile app, your only option is to "Get Started", which takes you to Step 1 or 4, "Your Personal information" - Passport no. and Date of Birth. I tried my "old" passport (~ 3 years past) - rejected. I tried my new passport (issued 3 years ago) and used at the branch ~ seven times for new passbooks, updating telephone and issuing a new ATM card) - rejected.

I had problems when I tried to enable a NEW phone. The first step (now, step one of three) involves entering your passport number and DoB. Message: Unable to proceed Your identity information at the bank is no longer up to date. Please bring your citizen ID card or passport to any Bangkok Bank branch and contact our staff. (RA02). Off to the branch tomorrow to verify if my current passport is registered. FWIW, for the SCB Easy app it took ~ 90 seconds to enable on the new phone.

The deceased's Instagram page...based on the Wesleyan connection. https://www.instagram.com/mike1.61803/ It looks like he was well-traveled. That looks like a large block of hash (guess it could be heroin) to purchase if you're going to end it all?

Initially this "scheme", in addition to buying votes, was meant for some 50 Million people, for the purpose of "juicing" an otherwise moribund economy. Since the initial promise, it's been whittled down multiple times. Now it's down to just under 15 Million "fragile" people. An abject failure, limping along on life support with no identified source of funding. Incompetence. Has this government accomplished anything?

For those with SCB accounts, consider the SCB Planet Card. Very handy, managed from the SCBEasy app. Visa-branded, Tap & Go. No uplifts. https://www.scb.co.th/en/personal-banking/stories/life-style/planet-dream-trip.html

Is it also reasonable to assume that those visitors from the ~ 36 NEW countries are not currently eligible for ANY tourist visa exemption? But they will be at some point in the near-ish future? This will make travel planning challenging, and one can't make an airline ticket purchase, or travel plans, yet.

Is AirBNB "legal" in Thailand? I confess to not having followed this issue. Are stays greater than 30 days more "legal"?

Are these changes permanent? Or will they expire/have to be extended by the government? This certainly frees up Immigration from having to process 30-Day extensions. It makes one wonder why they had a 30-day limit in the first place.

This land-bridge "scheme" is fairly recent, maybe first proposed in 2005? The Kra Isthmus Canal was first proposed in 1677. I think you can stick a fork in the "land bridge". Such a project would require significant focus from successive governments. Not exactly a strong suit for Thailand.

https://thailand.prd.go.th/en/content/category/detail/id/2078/iid/277841 I think the 730 baht (or equivalent currency where the ticket is issued) is denoted as "TS" on the ticket break-out. Domestic PSC is 130 baht.

I was able to sign up (email+pw, OTP), add my mailing address (the address where my new+old passports will be mailed to me), and then get through to the payment screen. Quite simple and straightforward. Personally, I would use the QR Promptpay option. Everything is set up and my shopping bag is ready for my renewal towards the end of this year.

The current Passenger Service Charge for International arrivals is 730 baht. An extra 300 baht would total 1,030 baht. The "730" goes to AoT. The biggest hurdle is "collection" of this 300 baht fee. Thailand wants airlines to create a new line item, airlines, to date, have refused to do this. They could raise the PSC to 1,030 and AoT could remit 300 baht to the Tourism/Sport Ministry but that may be illegal? There is also no way to avoid charging Thais unless the government rebates it. Every Tourism/Sport Minster salivates at the thought of "managing" a NINE BILLION Baht Slush Fund.

The smell of desperation is strong this morning.

Thai bank branches are easily corrupted. AMLO estimated that up to 500,000 accounts are mule accounts to facilitate criminal activity.

Meh. Influence over the holiday weekend, or this upcoming Wednesday, could go either way. It might favor trump, it might favor the prosecution, and it may have no bearing whatsoever. Very few juries are sequestered, most don't want to be.

The Khasosod English article mentions a daughter, presumably Mr. Ricki and Ms. Mod are the parents. Very confusing... Ms. Mod revealed details of her husband’s statement to the police, saying that while people at the party were drinking until they were drunk, Mr. Igor began to make flirtatious comments toward their daughter, even though Mr. Igor’s wife was also at the party. The Russian man then began to sexually harass their daughter, walking up to her and whispering in her ear that he wanted to have sex with her. This angered Mr. Ricki, who punched Mr. Igor in the face once, causing him to fall to the ground.... อ่านข่าวต้นฉบับได้ที่ : https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/2024/05/27/british-man-punches-russian-at-pattaya-party-killing-him-with-a-single-blow/

Where did you read this? It "works" in Thailand. https://www.pay.gov/public/form/entry/101/1156527186/ https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/how-apply/photos.html Most seem able to follow these simple directions: https://th.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/passports/instructions-for-ds-82-processing-by-mail-and-online-fee-payment-for-u-s-citizens-residing-in-thailand/ You can buy the Courier Pass back at a Thai Post Office, but again, most seem able to purchase this online.
