Which is less costly to transfer money to my Thai Bank ?

"Steady capital inflows boosted the baht's value to a 26-month high at Bt31.21 relative to the US dollar this Wednesday" "The threat of a serious weakening of major currencies - which some analysts see as inevitable with the greenback falling below THB25:USD1 - is heightening these fears."

When I moved here it was 45, do the math.

But it's still cheap compared to the west.

The peso is also moving from about 60 5 yrs ago to 45.

Vietnam is the only country where you get 'More bang for the buck' 17K to 19K

Tragic, where did he get the gun?

Since Pattaya is already full of Red Shirts, [issan migrant workers, decend is not the word rise/demonstrate is closer.

As for confirmation I'll ask my lady, a fervent red shirt, when she wakes up

Has he been with her 8 years or is this a quick con job ?

Babies were/are delivered squatting as well..

Anyone living in Thailand been able to buy from them to be shipped here?

Mexico, 2 that I know, Chapala/Guadalajara and St Michael

Here is a quote from a forum, thet seem to have problems with the press as Pattaya does,

" I have no idea if the American media is just lazy or if they have an agenda, but I cannot sit idly by and allow all of Mexico to be painted with such a broad brush. Lake Chapala is, indeed, safe."

Recently I went to SCB where I have an a/c and tried to get money using a foreign debit card and was told I needed to use the ATM, over the counter I needed a Credit Card, doesn't work in the ATM was the reason for going in anyway.

No.

US Embassy does not verify income. They provide a letter of your declared income that you must sign under oath.

I've been going personally every year to get verification of my monthly Social Security income for the Thai.

I am not well enough to make the trip, What can I do?

I read that the Thai originated in Yunnan, now part of China and later some Malay ancestors.

Thailand is an easy retirement visa compared to most desirable destinations. That explains it.

I'm retired here and in looking around it seems the Philippines and Malaysia are easier.

That said, would you come here if you had to make a living?

Can I send a Thai with one time power of attorney to the US Embassy to get Social Security confirmation letter?

Recently I read these,

2 different sources, <P class=yiv1525588138yiv963649516yiv1078017810MsoNormal>"The Dow Jones Industrial Average has made no net progress since spring 1999. <P class=yiv1525588138yiv963649516yiv1078017810MsoNormal>In other words, if you invested in stocks over the past 11 years, there's a good chance you wasted your time at best -- your money at worst. <P class=yiv1525588138yiv963649516yiv1078017810MsoNormal>Now if you were able to ride the bubble and get out before the pop, we commend you.

An entire lost decade of growth.It's been more than 10 years since the tech boom, and most of us have about the same net worth as we had in the first place -- or possibly less.

Hi tijnebijn

I've used a notary public named Mr Thewin a couple of times. He has a rather scruffy-looking law office on the edge of Mee Chok market in Mae Jo, not far from the Rimping store. His phone number is 081 530 9688.

Last time was a few weeks ago, when I needed a copy of a page of my passport notarised. He charged me 500 baht for two signed and stamped copies. Pleasant chap, and understands English well, providing you don't talk at a hundred miles an hour.

That's been my experience, anyway. I have no connection with him except as a customer, blah blah.

Anyone know one in Pattaya?

Do banks do it?

If you must invade with your tongue do it somewhere it will not choke them.

I'm not sure they're all that keen on that either.

You bring up an interesting point. I'm assuming you're talking about cunnilingus (yeh). Which is a country-less form of kissing. First of all, they are keen on it, and enjoy it immensely. Sometimes, the girls don't want you to because they don't want to get "turned-on." No further information.

Interesting opinion, I assume your also hansom,

My vote is for the Pattaya baht bus, cheap, convient and sometimes a little socializing as well.

I liked this evening's unique rain shower. Reminiscent of rains in Hawaii, on the leeward side of the island. The clouds came over the mountains to the east with welcome showers, while the sun was still well above the horizon to the west. Brilliant sunshine and falling rain turns the world into a sparkling fantasy, remarkable to behold.

Ahh, Hawaii, we called it pinapple water or sprinkles if my memory serves. Quyte a shock if yout sunbathing.

This word is believed to have originated as a transliteration of the French pronunciation of the French word "Français." The French were the first group of Westerners to be known amongst the Siamese. ฝรั่ง is now used to refer to any foreign object adopted into Thai culture.

Are any of these applicable to the 880000? minimum requirement for a yearly visa?
