  1. Police bust swinging party, arrest 13 foreign men

    BANGKOK: -- Police raided a swinging party in a Bangkok hotel late Wednesday night and arrested 13 foreign men, seven Thai women and three foreign women.

    The raid took place at 0:15 am Thursday at the Elizabeth Hotel on Praditpat Road in Samsen district.

    Police also arrested a couple - Christian Richards and his Thai wife, for allegedly organising the swinging sex tour.

    When police raided the room No 1101 on the 11th floor of the hotel, police found several couples were having sex in the same room while others were drinking and dancing.

    Police found used condoms, lubricant gel, porno books and CDs and 30 pills of Viagra.

    We all know that Thai women don't do things like this.

    Only Farang do this.

    They make nice Thai women bad!!!!!!!!

  2. I have heard this somewhere too, but there is nothing in the regulations about showing that you are using cash above the required amount on a regular basis, nor is there anything in the regs about replenishing the said amount each year - nor for the requirement that the said funds be transferred from abroad - strange but true. I also think that part of the reason for the 3 month rule is so that Thai banks can make money from the deposits. This is why the cash should be in a SAVINGS account with pathetic interest rates. Time deposit accounts are not recognised - they would yield more for the depositer. Essentially, Thai banks are getting away with paying short-term interest rates for 3-month 'time' deposit accounts - a complete rip-off - as are the discriminatory lower interest rates for savings accounts for foreigners as opposed to Thais.

    The regulations say that you top up to the required amount every year.

    Fixed Interest (Time) Accounts are recognised and are available to foreigners at the same rates as Thais. Admittedly a pathetic 1.75% from today.
