But the funds used to pay the local Thai baht are from another country.  It is recorded by Bangkok Bank as a foreign telegraphic transfer (FTT),

Maybe its a special case for BBL? With KBank the Wise transfers all show up as domestic transfers, which is in line with my previous description on how they keep prices down and transfer from their local in country bank networks? I.e. You give Wise the money in the foreign country and they just tell the Wise already in Thailand to give you the money?

Sent via WISE using “Long term stay in Thailand “. so the funds show as coming from abroad.

How can this be true if the funds are already in Thailand for your international transfers? I thought Wise does not actually transfer the funds internationally, but instead uses a network of local bank accounts in different countries. When you send money using Wise, they will use their network of local accounts to transfer the funds from a bank account in your country to a corresponding account in the recipient's country. This way, they can avoid the costly international wire transfer fees that banks usually charge.

It's always the foreigners fault.... it's ALWAYS the foreigners fault.

That is plain nonsense. Foreigners are driving and having accidents daily and the fault lies with the person who caused the accident. Its often foreigners who have not had any cross-cultural driving training at fault, but those that have acclimatized to local driving standards understand the rights and wrongs like a Thai.

I was declined again due to the house registration being in udon thani and not in Chiang Mai.

Surely you have to be in the same province the Thai house is registered to fix that and then get an extension?

So why didn't the "good" journalists get the interview?

What are the upsides for a wanted war criminal answering questions real journalists would ask? Besides the smirk the autocrat would give as he locks them up, it seems like a loose-loose for both sides does it not? So only chumps like Tucker can sell this farce to his blind followers.

Had a kid, bought couple houses, cars all paid for. I have things to do here like a bit of yard work, taking care of the kid, the beach is nearby, nice gym. Having said that I find myself bored at times

Stuck in the same routine daily can be boring. Sounds like you need some stimulation both in the brain with learning something nteresting and in the sub-navel region if you are that way inclined.

I assume they are Russian, as no Aussie or Brit would do such thing.

Bizarre thought process to lock it down to just three nationalities only?

Anyway the Budgy Smuggler Instagram pandemic is an Australian phenomenon. Who was it said humor doesn't travel well?

The news link says the "The matter could proceed to Thai court, notes TPN media, if the different parties involved continue to have opposite allegations and statements." so its possibly not the open and shut case many armchair Sherlock's perceive perhaps? Could be a double bluff of course.

does it really matter in the context? 

Gender/identity is important if funerals are being done.

If you look up and study context, pass the exam on it and come back here, it will make you a better person, and save us some bandwidth. A win win all around I say.

I get the impression that they want to push the gullible to get new holy injections.

How on earth can one get that impression from a news item that has no mention of getting new injections? Isn't it more a preconceived built in reaction of the self obsessed individualists who perceive their own personal rights being tested as others die, whilst at same time suffering vaccine fatigue and social media misinformation?
