  1. Err, yeah... just because it's 'in' your account doesn't mean it's 'in' your account. It's in there so you can take it out, but you won't want to take it out because it needs to be in. However, the bank don't play by the same in/out rules, so they can take it out (and shake it all about) and it'll still look in to you and immigration, but it's not really in because they will have taken it out; however, to all intents and purposes it's in. Unless you take it out, of course; then the bank can't take it out because it's no longer in and immigration may determine that it's not in for the required in period, and will likely out you because your in wasn't in long enough to meet the in requirements for staying in Thailand.

    Innit.

  2. As with everything in life, some things are easy for some people and others are not. Getting O-A is very easy for me and I had a plan to use only O-A and never had to visit immigration inside Thailand but with the looming insurance requirement it may not be possible. My next move is to find a good and reliable agent who can take care of my extension inside Thailand. 

    Seems like the OA loophole has been sussed !!
    I too had plans for another OA in September to avoid the financial requirements but the impending health insurance will probably put the kibosh on that .

    Plan B .
  3. "The person in question is an autistic teenage Thai boy"
     
    "Chinese tourist in Bangkok caught defecating in street next to shocked diners"
     
    So, bearing (baring?) in mind that some Chinese tourists are prone to act in this manner, (e.g. females urinating in taxis or on trains) are we to believe the former or the latter? 

    While the latters headline is shocking yet believable in this case it appears that the initial report had mistakenly reported that a Chinese tourist was responsible for the dirty deed.

    Another report from the same source ( Thairath ) states that it was a local autistic Thai boy aged 15-16 , this report came a day after the first.

  4. First thing is to look at your audience, apart from Christopher Fry and a few other guests Top Gear stayed away from the LGBTQ etc. crowd and it might be wise to continue. The comments that Flintoff and the other presenters were “ horrified “ is the usual virtue signalling that pours out of every so called personality these days.
    Try to keep some credibility in respect of what used to be a good show, please.

    Who is Christopher Fry ??
    Any relation to Stephen ?
