  1. I just had an extensive colliquay with ChatGPT which is programmed with a lot of crap. I will post ChatGPT's answer when cornered by me, a legal professional. Conclusion and Clarification There is no formal statute or regulation that defines "US person" without periods in the same way it defines "United States person" within the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) or other core legal sources like the Securities Exchange Act. The shorthand "US person" is commonly used in regulatory and compliance contexts, but it is not explicitly defined in the same way "United States person" is in the IRC. While the two terms refer to the same category of individuals and entities, the term "US person" is shorthand and widely used in regulatory texts. However, the precise legal definition for "US person" without periods appears only in regulatory frameworks like the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA). To answer your core concern: There is no statutory or regulatory definition explicitly uniting the shorthand "US person" and "United States person"; instead, the term "US person" is a shorthand commonly used in practice to refer to the same group of individuals and entities defined by the term "United States person".
  2. Almost 18 years ago the wife opened an account at BB. She is Thai. They gave her a questionnaire in Thai and English and she still didn't understand why they were asking her all these intrusive question. I took the paper and ripped it to shreds before the BB employee. She said nothing.
  3. I am not a US person. I am a citizen of the USA.

  4. When I came here 10 years ago, I had a Thanachart account, which was still good. I opened 2 accounts in Bangkok. I got a call from the branch saying I forgot to sign some papers. I went to the branch and the lady pushed IRS forms at me. I slid my chair back and stood up. "What is this," I asked her? She said "Obama wants to know about you." I told her that Obama can go F himself and I won't fill in or sign any of those documents, I will close my account first. I transferred all my money to Kbank. I waited 3 months. Nothing happened. I move the money back and never heard about it again. They are fishing. If you want to bite on the bait, that is your choice.
  5. Are you here or not? Go to a different Kbank.
  6. Are you here or not? Go to a different Kbank.

  8. Oh, baby! I love a good shag.
  9. I don't think this is true. How would they know?
  10. Australia is nipping at Britain's heels.
  11. Do you disagree with what I wrote?
  12. America is not and never was a democracy. Get educated.
  13. She lost because she is a twit, and the American people are fed up with Democrat nonsense. We love Trump. Suck on that.
  14. Nonsense. Forget it. They will do nothing. I have 2 Kasikorn accounts. All banking is done by my son who is American, but his bank account at Kasikorn is not.
  15. Please describe what the light looks like.
  16. Not yet. OJ sent me a message. Carry on.
  17. Devil. I hope they take care of her in Prison, the Prison way.
  18. Put ramming equipment on all ambulances. Ram, anyone blocking on purpose. Push them aside over a cliff; it doesn't matter.
  19. It's manslaughter or something close. Try them and then put them in chains.
  20. Welcome to my list. You are in good company.
  21. Your innocuous statement assumes that my post is silly. Prove it.
  22. Welcome to the land of optional thinking.
  23. Obviously missed by you.
