Looking to obtain bank letter and statement for extension at Korat IO.

 

Is Bangkok Bank's Korat branch at 680 Mittraphap Road ( just round the

corner from Terminal 21) user friendly in this respect.

Having just gone through this at Bangkok Bank here in Pattaya.  If you need only a short statment 6 months or less they can print at the branch and give you the letter same day that merely records the date, the fact you have the account and its current balance.  

If you need the 12 month statement using the monthly method, go to the office and request a 13 month statement.  It will take 3 to 5 business days.  Upon arrival the bank can typie a letter that details your monthly transfers.  Some branches will do that same day, others come back the next day.

      Burmese man condemned for preaching Christianity to Buddhist novices

      I had some similar Bible thumpers/Mormons/Jehovah's Witnesses at my door a great number of years ago trying to convert me. One of them said "But you must have believed in Jesus at one time?" I replied, "Yes, and I also used to believe in Santa Claus! Goodbye" and went to close the door, but he stuck his foot in the way, saying "But......" and he got no further because I said "Take your foot off my doorstep or I'll break it - now b****r off and don't bother me again." My Scottish wife at the time commented "There was no need for that, you could have just said you were busy, and didn't have time to talk to them". I replied "Yes, and what excuse would you use when they came back again? No, this way they won't bother us again" We never got bothered again - bloody pests!

      Chula university cancels launch of book critical of Thai military

      A very significant, very loud, and very critical discourse of the military is required at this point in Thailand. They are a spectacularly corrosive institution, they have insinuated themselves into so many different aspects of Thai society, they are no doubt very corrupt, they are nearly useless, and they suck huge amounts of treasury from the Thai nation. Yet no criticism, and no discourse is allowed, and as usual Thailand demonstrates that it is not a democracy.

What to wear in Thailand in October When you’re heading to Thailand in October, keep the tropical vibe in mind that humidity is high, and rain is still on the radar thanks to the monsoon season, especially in the south, like Samui. While some areas are drying out, you’ll want to be prepared. Here’s what to wear: Lightweight fabrics: Go for breathable materials such as cotton, linen, or moisture-wicking fabrics. These will help you stay cool and dry in the humid conditions. Casual attire: Pack comfortable clothing like short-sleeved t-shirts, airy skirts, and shorts. These are ideal for daily activities and exploring cities like Bangkok and Chiang Mai. Rain gear: Since October can still experience rain, bring a lightweight rain jacket or poncho. Quick-drying clothing is also advisable to handle unexpected downpours. Modest clothing for temples: When visiting temples, ensure you wear longer shorts or skirts that cover your knees and tops with sleeves. A lightweight shawl or scarf can be useful to cover your shoulders if needed. Footwear: Comfortable sandals or flip-flops are suitable for most activities. However, if you plan on hiking or visiting rural areas, consider sturdy walking shoes. Evening wear: For nights out in urban areas or dining at nicer restaurants, pack a nicer outfit such as a casual dress or smart-casual shirt and trousers. Don’t forget something warm for the cooler mornings or evenings up north! Finding Thailand hotels Travelling in October often means more affordable hotel rates and a wide selection of accommodation options, thanks to the off-peak season.

How to book your Thailand transport Thailand offers a wide range of transport options to suit every traveller, from budget-friendly buses to luxury flights: Domestic flights: Budget airlines like AirAsia, Thai Lion Air, and Nok Air offer affordable flights between major cities. September often brings discounted fares due to the lower tourist demand. Trains: Thailand’s train network connects Bangkok with northern destinations like Chiang Mai, and southern beach areas like Surat Thani (gateway to Koh Samui). Book through the State Railway of Thailand (SRT) website or use third-party agents. Buses: Long-distance buses are a popular option for getting around Thailand. The VIP buses are comfortable, especially for overnight journeys. Ferries: To get to islands like Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, or Koh Phi Phi, ferries are the primary mode of transport. Companies like Lomprayah offer joint bus-ferry tickets. Taxis and Tuk-Tuks: In cities like Bangkok and Chiang Mai, taxis and tuk-tuks are widely available. Use ride-hailing apps like Grab for convenience and safety. Tips for travelling in Thailand in October Pack waterproof gear: While October signals the end of the rainy season, there’s still a chance of showers. Bring a lightweight raincoat or poncho, and use waterproof bags for your electronics and important documents to stay dry. Choose quick-drying clothing: Stick with lightweight, breathable fabrics that dry fast. Quick-drying sandals or shoes will keep you comfy during any surprise downpours. Stay informed: Use weather apps to stay on top of forecasts so you can plan your days and adjust your itinerary if needed. Explore nature: October’s cooler temps make it a great time to explore Thailand’s lush, green landscapes. Consider trekking in Chiang Mai or visiting national parks to enjoy the post-rain beauty. Take advantage of the off-peak season: October is part of Thailand’s shoulder season, which means fewer tourists and lower prices on flights and accommodations. Keep an eye out for deals to make the most of your budget. Protect against mosquitoes: Don’t forget insect repellent, especially for outdoor evening activities. Wearing light, long-sleeved clothing helps too. Get travel insurance: Consider travel insurance that covers cancellations or disruptions due to weather-related issues, especially since the rainy season may still cause some hiccups.

      Thai privilege (Elite) visa

      The 5-Year 900,000 Baht fee is horrendous, in my opinion. I've had a Marriage Visa for 37 of my 40 years here. 1,900 Baht per year now. 2,500,000 Baht for 10 years! Wow! But if the foreigner is very rich, then why not? There must be more desirable and cheaper countries to move to though.

      Monk with Sword Causes Commotion in Bangkok's Lad Ya Area - video

      I wouldn't try a taser against a nut with a sword. Perhaps you aren't aware that police tasers have at least a 30% failure to subdue. Druggies are the ones least affected by tasers. I suspect this "monk" is definitely on something strong -or having a psychotic episode. Bean bag rounds would probably work better, but still no guarantees.
