Apologies, should have included that I reside in Pattaya.

Sorry to hijack thread but tried unsuccessfully to begin my own..... does anyone know of good visa agent to obtain thai citizen a short stay visa for Australia. I did try Manaret Travel but they do not do. Thanks for any help.

I wish to find an efficient, knowledgeable visa agent in Pattaya to help Thai obtain a short stay visa to Australia. If anyone has used the services of one recently and was pleased with service I would appreciate the contact details please

That is not correct, I renewed Australian passport 7 Nov. 2024 for ten years then aged 76 years old. Did have option of 5 or 10 years.

And approval is almost instantaneous

3NUMBAS you may want to read article again Austrian not Australian

To much Tik Tok

I also suffer from hand tremor. I consulted two GP`s in Australia and advised I was considering using CBD oil as when there only for a few days. Both agreed it was worth trying and so I obtained oil but have only been using for 10 days so is to early to know if effective however I have noticed a very slight improvement in some hand functions. I took this action on advise of two people who claim it to be effective in their cases.

Maybe they are trying to show how futile it was.

As Homburg states this should not be an army decision. It should be done by the government and enforced by the army. No wonder Thailand has issues re the segregation of powers.

Well the Thai cyber police and associates should go straight over the border arrest Hen Sen and deport him to Thailand. That will teach him.

I think scorecard you took line from my post....also affects what happens to the account if one of the parties dies. As I stated have not worked in thai bank but in two other western countries..... A joint account with both signatures to operate, on the death of one of the parties the account is frozen and goes to probate where usually half is included in the estate of the deceased BUT other party cannot access there portiion until resolved by probate. A joint account with either signature is not affected by death of one party and the surviving party can continue to draw down on balance of account. Normally if declared the bank will close joint account and open account in name of survivor. Have heard here they require both signatures to close a joint account, surviving or either party could draw down to a minimal balance to circumvent this.

Cannot believe they appointed her and you intelligent beings were obviously not approached over the position

How therefore can USA along with Canada and Mexico stage the soccer world cup. Cannot imagine FIFA allowing them to stage world cup.

I was advised by Bangkok Bank that I could not open a joint account with my Thai partner as we were not married. I did have an existing account with them. I worked in a bank and no not in Thailand but what relavency does whose name is first make. Only regulation was either joint signature or either signature for withdrawals. Also affects what happens to the account if one of the party dies.

Unbelievable two drivers of one vehicle

Maybe the rest of the world should be charging the US of A with currency manipulation.

On assumption that he was at a nightclub and consuming alcohol it would not matter if he had the best travel insurance available. Insurance would not cover his hospitalisation because of this.

Good to read positive news about Pattaya which I thoroughly endorse. Also very close by to areas like Bang Saray for dining and beaches. Beach at navy base is excellent a low cost golf course there as well. Annual LPGA tournament as well as many other festivities to enjoy.

Hotsun... you reference Pattaya in this but from what I read the offences occurred in another part of the country and only his arrest was in Pattaya. You being a little judgemental maybe??

Unless I am blind I do not see any mention of quantity. A joint or kilos would make a big difference in court penalty.

Red Phoenix I disagree with you and not that it matters but I have had items confiscated at the gate that were missed at initial inspection. These items were of no security consequence to any other country but Thailand.

Yes, travel Bkk to Melb. Aust. you go through security and then at boarding gate have to submit all carry on to another security team. This is in same terminal and always happened.

My understanding was cash returned was Iranian funds illegaly frozen in American banks. Is this correct ?

Wensiensheng... I agree but that is what was stated. Strange but could be possible an inside contact at airport prior to bag inspection.
