Shows tukcom Pattaya.
Company seems to go south.
Tukcom Khon Kaen was very poor last time.
At BigC Udon Thani shrunk and very poor choice. Whole groups of stuff gone.

The exchange rate may be slightly better but when they tried to charge well over $100 for the transfer it raised my suspicions so I made the transfer from my offshore bank the very same day and ended up with more bahts in my account than Wise had quoted. I don't know how else I can put it - I got more bahts than using Wise.
Which currency from what country?
How do you fund WISE? CC?

Using it since years for monthly transfers. Two minor cases of delay.
I don't care about minutes or hours. To Bangkok Bank for "long term stay" it's always next working day.
To Kasikorn I can transfer in seconds. Nice to have.
I care about the result on my account.
How long does your SWIFT transfer take?
And what's the overall result (Thai Baht on your account, own currency sent/deducted)?
One concrete example would be helpful.

there is only 1 big problem .
country of residence : why there is not Thailand?
They will never really acknowledge Thailand as your (only) country of residence.
You are "temporary alien".
Same with the bank asking for my home address. I didn't argue that I don't have one anymore. Just wrote my last address and all happy.

And then read the other thread about Italian-Thai et.al. and things get more complicated.

Yes, I agree except for your low odds.
So you had an unlucky day 😊
I was let off the hook by highway police on M7 even without plates. Just having purchase and insurance documents.

Despicable thieving governments, the whole damn lot of them.
YOU don't hear.
Trump promised help.
EU, WHO, Germany incl Christian charity organizations, Switzerland. And that's only the range that I have on my news.

Not a single mile on 304 is outright dangerous.
Mole hills compared to real mountain roads.
I hardly ever came to a critical situation.
It's the drivers, it's the vehicles conditions.

What time exactly in Pattaya? i felt nothing
Friend in Jomtien also says he didn't feel it.
Should have been after 13:25 when Bangkok was shaking, state of emergency declared.
Up here the Korat plateau seems rocksolid.
Came home 13:20 and felt nothing.
Multiple threads running.
Catastrophic earthquake near Mandalay, Myanmar.
Some numbers go up to 8.2 magnitude!

That's terrible stuff.
Expect huge damage and many victims.

The building should have become the "Office of the Auditor General".
Whatever that is.

Looks like definitely connected.
Under construction. Likely not stable like a ready built tower.

Felt nothing though I was probably in the car.

Where was that?
On Twitter it only says "Chatuchak Area".
Seems a high rise under construction.

I am outraged that Chinese got 90 days and we have 60.
What circle of Chinese can afford 90 days on holiday from savings/funds?

Get back to 15 day visa on arrival like in the good old times!
VoA could be substituted by ETA with a fee if it is finally ready.

Isaan concert
in Pattaya
Posted
Sounds like an open air morlam event?
Big stage, easy a hundred or more participants (dancers, singers...).
Thousands of spectators sitting on the ground or standing/dancing.
Very loud, very "exotic".
You will not understand what it's about. Saying is that some of the lyrics are quite explicit.
Unusual for the Siamese.
Entry fee on the other hand sounds like a much smaller event in a (concert) hall?
There used to be one at the Rhompo market in Jomtien.
