Foreign Currency Deposit accounts to hold foreign currency in Thai Bank - for 800,000 Baht requirement
Old thread, but new info. I read somewhere that BBK Bank offers USD Fixed Deposit accounts with above 4% interest p/a. Has anybody experience with such an account? Does it fulfill immigration requirements? Which bank are you using? Are Euro FCDs available for that purpose as well? -

Is Miriam Calling the Shots? Why Don't Americans Stop These Mega-Donors Having a Say?
Is bMiriam Calling the Shots? Why Don't Americans Stop These Mega-Donors Having a Say? I'm genuinely curious – how is it that someone like Miriam Adelson, an Israeli-born billionaire, can have such a massive say in U.S. foreign policy? She’s not just a big donor – she’s arguably helped shape American policy toward Israel in ways that go way beyond what the average citizen could ever influence. Her support for a "Greater Israel", her opposition to a two-state solution, and her financial backing of Netanyahu and other hardliners are well known. Let’s look at what happened during the Trump years – nearly all of it in line with what the Adelsons wanted: U.S. Embassy moved to Jerusalem Recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital Golan Heights recognized as Israeli territory Aid to Palestinians slashed Iran deal scrapped Abraham Accords pushed through They didn’t just cheer from the sidelines. The Adelsons reportedly donated over $400 million(largest donors in US history) to Republican causes between 2012–2020. That kind of money bought them direct access to Trump and his inner circle. Miriam even got the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2018. She also funds a string of pro-Israel and Zionist causes, like: Birthright Israel Yad Vashem Maccabee Task Force Israel Hayom (a free pro-Netanyahu newspaper in Israel) All this raises the question: Why is this allowed? How can one ultra-rich donor (with dual loyalties, no less) shape American foreign policy so profoundly? Shouldn’t there be limits on political donations? Or at the very least, more transparency about how foreign-born billionaires are influencing U.S. policy? -

Thai - Cambodia Conflict Thailand Condemns Cambodia (Video)
I didn't know Khmer Rouge wasn't tranlated in English. In France, some critics sometimes refer to green political parties as "Green Khmers" ("Khmer verts"), a controversial nickname comparing them to the Khmer Rouge due to their perceived authoritarianism. Haha -

The Thumbs Down Syndrome
So why do you read them daily? Dopamine hit. You have nothing better to read. How silly to read 500 posts from someone you don't agree with then complain non stop.
