  1. If ur in Phuket, the fee is 1,000 baht and no receipt or 2,000 with receipt ur choice ???? so might be wort asking when you go in and tell them you dont need a receipt
  2. that was a while ago as the fee is now $40 since May
  3. Just a note: pre covid Villa in Chern Talay was More expensive for many items than the nearby Central supermarket Now the reverse is true for many items
  4. dont expect them to give ya $$, Better go to a bank in Thailand and get 5 $20 and pay the $40 fee
  5. if your concerned about getting between the airport in a major tourist city to town> perhaps Cambodia is not for you
  6. Always make copies of everything, an let them chose what they want, BEFORE you arrive and never ever go on a monday or the first day after a holiday!!
  7. firefly rt/ go weds, back friday 7,666 baht 1 hour flight about the same price as flying to Phnom Penh via bangkok ????
  8. great indian food...:-)
  9. dont like KL, to big a city for me. Georgetown Penang is a great place to spend a few days, great food, nightlife, walkable, easy to access attractions with public bus, various accommodation and a world heritage site!!
  10. quirk & inexpensive fly to Penang, one of my favorite cites in SE Asia, free voa
  11. i have lived in se asia, mostly Thailand with some time in Cambodia, over 35 years I use US$ when i travel around countries cause its the most convenient to convert in my head to what ever country i am in> While in Burma, laos, Malaysia etc, i dont convert the local currency to Baht in my head, but to $$, to know the cost funny how the OP has NOT come back to say where he was travelling from in Thailand ???? guess he really doesn't give a S#@T To each their own.

    Patong - The Wake

    why use it as the patong hillis open for cars both ways
  13. Come check out Kamala> rent out ur villa and rent here and SAVE lots of Baht!! 2 bedroom homes from 10,000 - 200,000/month view out my front door 1 km or less to beach, shopping, restaurants. i moved over here in 96 from Patong, (except for the last 17 months when i was in Kep Cambodia) ....yea , its changed, but get off the main road, its still basically a village now that the patong hill is 2 ways, traffic has died down a bit
  14. Bangkok to Phnom Penh is under $120 r/t Cambodian visa $30 even Phuket via Bangkok- PP is less than $200!!! Phuket- Penang is cheap Just look at Kayak.com
  15. when u include the cost to travel by car to the border /back and 2,000 baht why not just fly to Penang??
  16. all you need show is the money came from outside Thailand and as long as your over 50.... seriously doubt any questions will be asked

  24. don't know why so many are set against agents, why use a tax accountant? Why use a auto mechanic? why use a bricklayer There you tube videos on all of the above if you have the $$$ why bother with things that upset you? Life is short
