Previously all non Thais would have to fill out a landing card and this would have your flight details on it and the flight number is always hand written near the entry and departure stamps. The Landing cards have been suspended at the moment ,hence the need to give Immigration your boarding pass.

No it does not.

Khao jai pa is indeed a shortened version of Khao jai reu plaaw. It means do you understand or not.

I had been in the UK for a couple of months and forgot how dangerous Thai dogs are. This coupled with owning two really good natured dogs made me forget that all Thai dogs should be given a wide berth. The dog was being fed by the food vendor and the pavement was blocked. I wrongly assumed the dog was tame and owned by the vendor. Without thinking I stepped over the dog and it was startled and jumped up and bit me on the lower leg. I hold my hands up and accept it was my own stupidity/forgetfulness that led to the dog biting me.

Back in April this year I was bitten by a dog on Pattaya Klang about 50 yards from Soi Buakhaow. Not a nice experience at all. Had to go to Pattaya Memorial to have 5 injections for Tetenus around the wound and an anti Rabies injection in each shoulder. The wound was cleaned at hospital everyday and I had to have further injections in each shoulder for Rabies on day 5 ,12 and day 26 .

Keep away from Thailand.

Not true. I was asked if I wanted to transfer in Baht or Sterling. It is not cash you are sending as it is an electronic transfer. It is only a question of when you have your currency converted into Sterling. If you transfer ฿ it will not arrive in your account as ฿ as it will be automaticaly converted into Sterling.

I sent mine in Pounds Sterling as the Bangkok Bank has a better exchange rate than my UK bank. When I send money to Thailand from the UK I also send it in Sterling.

I recently transfered ฿800 000 which was 18.200 pounds worth of baht back to the UK from my Bangkok Bank account. Just go into your bank and tell them you want to make an international transfer to your UK bank account . You will have to fill out a form and your money will be in your account within a few days. You will need your passport and your UK bank account IBAN number and Swift code.
