Again a misunderstanding? It is a word that is very popular in Thailand... Good that the bill is delayed, as it will only benefit one family and hopefully the daughter as PM will not survive the non confident bill...

Indeed and Wise claimed it was because of the holidays... But with Remitly I made a transfer and it arrived instantly on Sunday... less then 10 seconds... My opinion holds.. why is Wise keep your money back?? As a banker for 26 years I know they will do it for making profit, but they pretend to fast, but that was several months ago

It is wise as you got a mail that has transferred the money to the bank....So the problem is with Wise not with the receiving bank. You get the message that Wise received the money and it must be "processed" and later the next day you get a message that the money is sent to the bank... Nothing to do receiving banks it is surely Wise that hold it back. Why is kasikorn no problem??

Than I had 5/6 years luck... but I don't believe that.... I am not an exception... and read when you check the rates.. It will arrives in seconds,is many times mentioned and it changed in it will arrive in 3/4 hours now....not it will arrive tomorrow

What is the purpose of signs in Thailand??? Nobody reads or follow them.. There several roundabouts near me with the sign to let the traffic on the roundabout to go first, but really nobody stops and do it..... Always question myself, can't they read or don't they know what a roundabout is?? Any way there are too less signs on the roads, and often too close to the dangers... This case too.. many crashes here, so people don't learn

Is the police doing the same and not use chemicals, unneccessary force, etc to keep control???

Is Lisa involved too??? or is she out now and the new idol is a dinosaur??

Who is going to enforce this law?? Police busy with crackdown on motorcycle drivers without helmets( I think it is over already). Besides that the RTP is not enforcing any law so it will be business as usual, after this week

I don't understand the question... Why must everybody fit a certain frame?? People can do as they like and who cares what they are doing in their bedroom as way of speaking... Nobody need to be judged for it. And if I read the response ....... it is just disgusting.... No respect for other people than the macho's in their comments... Maybe they should be informed a bit a lot about it to read everywhere

"Working" In Thailand this is a dirty word.....many Thais don't like it... and those who work must have a workpermit if you are not Thai, even volunteer work is not allowed and many other jobs that are protected, so that almost nothing is left...Protectionism will kill the economy nowadays... Thailand forget.. these men, although not working with a workpermit, pay rent, eat, drink and probably do other things which is a contribution to the economy... But Thailand like to kill everything by outdated laws and rules..

28 tonnes... I am wondering how many tonnes are getting lost or not destroyed.... The BMW and Mercedes and large houses must be paid with something

If the Thai Government refuse to enter the 21st century, tourist numbers will go down.. Look at how vaping is handled, alcohol sales/buying hours, double standards and pricing ,scams, constantly publishing that all foreigners are bad, such as no decent clothing, drinking and behavior.. and of course the constantly threat of defamation by negative reviews, and fines for posting alcohol promotion if you publish picture on social media.... It seems that nothing is allowed in the land of smiles anymore and all foreigners are unwelcome, and also the foreigners living here are with outdated visa rules as 90 days report, address notifications, endless paperwork for extension the visa every year, and high taxes on imported articles as wines, and now the latest income taxes... Why than complaining that they stop visiting you?? Don't they understand that they are not a welcoming country anymore??

From my normal bank account in the Netherlands.. I did a similar transfer with Remitly and it arrived instantly.. so the problem is between Wise and Bangkokbank.. the transfer of 30 May Wise claimed that banks did not work these days, but the Remitly transfer I did was on Sunday 1 June and arrive din seconds.. Just to say that I am convinced that Wise is withholding it to make profit of it... Believe me I worked in a bank in my country for more than 26 years...

If it is only Bangkokbank that cause the delay I will send it to my partner account at Kasikornbank next time and see how that will go..

As I stated the Egyptians had jews as slaves already and when they left Egypt they started to conquer Palestine.. Eevn in the Middle Ages jews were not popular and it has been through all ages.... The climax of the hate was of course the WOII and than the Allies had to find a solution and told the Jews that Palestine would be available.. With less land they were not satisfied and they wanted more.. You can find that easily on internet... and when they got more they wanted more again.. It seems they want a land for their own and not live with others.. Now the Palestines, the original habitants were only at Jordan West Bank and Gaza and what did Israel do?? They started to build illegally on the Jordan West Bank and the West Eu and US let them do it.. and still they are taking more and more.. and now as Netayahu said they want Gaza be a part of Israel... The West feels guilty about what happened to the Jews in WOII, even today we can see and hear it.. and that is why Israel can as it wants...Today they even broke the cease fire, they will not stop being the aggressor until the West stops standing back behind this. And I know that not all Jews can be blamed, but the Government is chosen by the people and if they really want to stop this madness they should throw the Government out, but they don't do anything...

That can not be a problem 50% of the inmates can wear an ankle bracelet, several can be freed for violating section 112 on bail, and the overcrowded prisons will be be better. Let the inmates built good toilets and showers, give them decent beds and treat them as people instead of dirt... Can not be a big problem... and than you start to make a good rehabilitation program, as now it is nothing. My adoptive son was in prison and had to report, he did not do but nothing happened. He got an ankle bracelet, but took it off and nothing happened... So how can you improve what is not there??

Smoked too much weed?? Who talking about Christmas now in June???? Are you so very bored???

It is for the 6 or 7 years I use Wise always the same bank, the account nothing changed.... Wise changed

I transferred to Bangkokbank 1000 euro is 37k.. nothing special

Today I tranferred money by Wise to my account here in Thailand using Wise. I do this for many years already, but I noticed that the last months the money transfers are being with held by Wise. When you check the rates they mention that the money will arrive in 4 minutes, but when the transfer is made it suddenly change to Wednesday, tomorrow. On Friday 30 May I transferred money to my account and it could not be paid out for Wednesday 4 June too. The reason was that the banks were closed. Today again I contacted Wise and they told me they need time to process the transfer, but that is rubbish of course, as everything is being digitalized. I know that banks are checking more for money transfers, but Wise don't send the money to bank, they do it tomorrow. I am sure they will hold the money to make extra money out of it, no problem for me but be clear on your website and don't promise it will arrive in 4 minutes. A few months back never had a problem, until these last 3/4 months. Remitly is much quicker although a bit more expensive, but I am going to use Remitly until Wise is not withholding the money anymore. I hope those who have the same problem maybe have other options too, and let Wise feel that we don't accept their policy

There are 2 solutions.. The RTP will check all shops that sell weed and close them, but that is a wish what is impossible.. or the second option is make legal and with good rules and laws, let them register their shop and tax them...Illegal shops will be dismantled I think second option is the best, as it is impossible to legalize first the cannabis and now make it illegal... Same with vaping.. allow it and tax it.. Good for the country

So why is this news?? It happens almost every day that a pedestrian is run over on a zebra crossing....But you need a working policeforce and justice system to solve these matters.. but both are not available

I am not surprised there are no more accidents.. On the ricefield in front of my house there is also a lunatic throwing bombs to the birds as he is afraid that they will eat the seeds.. about 100 day for 3 weeks and later when when the rice is almost ready to harvest another 3 weeks... And he is giving sometimes his aunt who is 85 the bombs to shoot...Never an accident occured, but it is just a matter of time I believe... But what do you expect here in Thailand /??

It is like the casino bill... the F1 is only to please the Shinawatra family...They will earn a lot of money with this event and so it must come to Thailand... The PM did not went for nothing to Monaco to talk about it... It is no wonder that the PM doesn't step down until the budget for 2026 is approved.. All this kind of events and benefits for this family should pass...Kick them out let them organize things in other countries

Every country has other rules and laws than Thailand.. Freedom of speech and doing and writing is not known in THailand although they pretend to be a free country. Examples enough about defamation, and now this
