Thailand Cambodia armed conflict -- where do western expats fit in this mess?
Thailand Cambodia armed conflict -- where do western expats fit in this mess? Last time I checked Cambodia was about 600 km to my Southeast, which makes it something I'm not particularly concerned about. Thailand and Cambodia have be trading slaps over that chunk of territory for decades. This is nothing new. -

You have us beat by a long shot, lefty. The entire modern Democratic Party is based on lies and hypocrisy. Their two most important core values. That is if you’re even a USC. More likely than not you aren’t. -

Thai bank account with agent
Let me take a stab at this? This pertains to Pattaya. In the last month I've gone through the process for a friend. Also just Thursday I spoke to another who use a agent to get everything done price I remember was around 40,000 baht. The normal process to open an account is to obtain a residential certificate enable to do that you must already have an Immigration O, so currently that would be pretty tough! LOL! I read from Mod, recently if you apply abroad you not need to have funds from a Thai Bank! Months back before Bangkok Bank in Pattaya got busted through agent consultation got a new account for friend at BB, all arranged since his funds coming from abroad had hit a snag I was going to use an agent for him which meant when we apply the necessary funds would be placed in his account obtain the certification letter from bank then money will be transfer back to agent account. Majority if not all the people using agents had to have BB accounts since all the connection was with BB, now that BB has the light on them from the raid expat accounts are being inspected many accounts are frozen owners must show up provide evidence they are retired residents. Today, if you are using an agent the alternative bank to open is Krungthai, once account is open the application is on your phone only then money can be funnel in obtain letter of verification and then money out. Although, I've been doing my own extension for close to 20 years in my dealings for my friends it is surprising the things the agent can do which also explain the level of corruption that exist. If one just got here and want a Imm O, like another friend I just spoke to paid around 40,000 baht, the service included opening an account at Krungthai, circumventing submission of a residential certification, obtaining the extension , Multi-entry, and updated TM-30, and next 90 day report. If one already have an Extension, need to renewal, have a Krungthai account using agent and their money 12-15,000 Baht is the fee. Using an agent in Pattaya allows them to renewal the extension 3 months prior to the due date, whereas doing it yourself no earlier than a month. What happened at BB bank was bad timing for my friend when we wanted to renewal several weeks back since we had gone through a lot to open the BB account months back. On July 4th his funds finally arrived to Thailand his BB account but it hadn't season as required 2 months, I ask agent can we use our funds instead of yours still pay you and use your connections in Immigration to overlook the 2 month seasoning no problem she responded. I had to go to BB bank to obtain certification we had the 800,000 baht, since the money had just arrive with the concerns and new stipulations we agree to a sign an addendum that money would be locked for 4 months not accessible before they would issue letter. Back to agent with letter, passport, we were done 4 days later friend got his extension. Hope that helps? -

Can no longer renew driving licence to 5 years, now 2 years only
selecting the correct colour of lights showm red, amber, green (using a remote control) brake reaction test peripheral vision depth perception. all tests are very easy and took no more than 10 mins in totaL make sure to book online, and do the "online traning" - videos to watch and answer a few questions. I was going to book the Nonthaburi office, but the earliest I could go was mid september. So i chose to use the Taling Chan office. It's very organised and quick. Make sure to have the correctr paperwork - copy of visa page and last stamp, medical certificate, Lette rof residence from immigration. I also have a work permit and they took a copy of that, though I dont think it was necessary as Im on a marriage extension. -
