I think the rules should rely on the definition of tourism. Authorities should systematically questions tays longer than the duration of normal annual leave in the country of origin of the so called tourist. 

What 'definition' is that?

At what point is your tourist status negated - is it with your first or second holiday home?

'Johnny Wagepacket' and his annual two weeks in the sun under his 'Kiss me Quick' hat - isn't the only 'tourist' type out there

You can reset the individual transaction and daily limits in the app.  If you have withdrawal limit set at 50K, you likely also have transfer limit set at 50K.  I suspect that's the default limit applied when you set up online banking.

 

You can increase the limit, then reset it lower afterwards.

 

Or just go into the bank with your passport and bankbook and collect the full amount..

Or go 'old school' and get them to make out a Bank Draft

Should have immediately returned to Suvarnabhumi where he would have been arrested then tried under all applicable aviation law and billed for all the considerable costs he's incurred + interest

When he's finally released he can investigate his options to return to the UK overland or by sea (no air carrier will take him).

Three months ago, the wife went to the local hospital for a check-up which included a battery of blood tests.  Results indicated LDL was high, and total cholesterol was very high (~250).  The doctor prescribed simvastatin 20mg for 90 days, and set an appointment for 90 days in the future.

 

Today was that day.  Honey-bunny fasted for 12 hours, we arrived at the appointed 7 am to get a number.  Around 7:30 she was screened and told the doctor would be there at 8:30.  We asked about a blood test, but was told the doctor would need to see her first.  Doctor waddled in at 9:30, and began speed-examining patients averaging less than 200 seconds each.

 

Honey-bunny was called in.  So exciting!  The doctor asked "how do you feel,"  then wanted to prescribe another 90-days of medication.  Wait, what?  No blood test?  I told honey-bunny to firmly request doctor to write an order for a blood test, to....you know, see if the medicine was having any effect before continuing treatment.  Doc didn't want to since it was already so late, already 10 am, but eventually did so.

 

Early afternoon, picked up results and returned to same doctor.  Total cholesterol had dropped massively, now well within recommended range, LDL lower but still a little high.  Doctor decided it worked.  No more simvastatin prescribed, and no follow up with blood test in 90 days.  Wait, what?  Now that you know the treatment is effective, you want to stop it?  And you're not concerned numbers will go back up again without medication?

 

So......continue medication without knowing the effect, but stop the medication with no further testing when it was shown to be at least temporarily effective?  Does this seem inappropriate treatment, or do I jus tink too mutt?

 

 

Do it yourself, go to one of the many Medical Labs and have the cholesterol tests done in 90 days. Cheap and same day results - seek out a Doctor only if outside normal range.
