Dipped below 800k for money in bank method
Yes, I was going to suggest that. I have a separate savings account with 800,000+ no ATM card. I just update the passbook every few months to show that there is NO activity. No problems for 9 years. -

Dipped below 800k for money in bank method
Thank you for admitting your (wife's) error. It could happen to any of us. A friend dipped by 4,000 Baht after an an ATM withdrawal on a Pattaya night out......fortunately he had another account with that made up the difference. -

Over 1,000 detained in Thai nominee crackdown on foreign businesses
Picture courtesy of Wassayos Ngamkham by Bright Choomanee Police intensified their crackdown on the use of Thai nominees by foreign businesses, resulting in the detention of over 1,000 individuals over recent weeks. This sweeping operation was a joint effort by police and the Ministry of Commerce, targeting companies engaging in illicit business practices. Investigations focused on 442 companies, collectively handling over 3.6 billion baht (US$105 million), across 46 locations nationwide. The Central Investigation Bureau’s (CIB) commissioner, Jirabhop Bhuridej, highlighted the scale of the operation, emphasising the collaboration with the Department of Business Development (DBD) within the Ministry of Commerce. Among those detained were: 714 Thais 258 Chinese 21 Malaysians 4 Cambodians 4 Vietnamese 3 Britons 3 Germans 2 Japanese 2 Myanmar nationals 1 American 1 Singaporean 1 Kazakhstani These individuals were implicated in businesses registered by Thais acting as proxies for foreign nationals, despite restrictions that reserve certain business activities for Thai citizens. “The businesses involved held assets worth 254 million baht (US$7.4 million), and investigations revealed they employed law or accounting firms to manage their registrations,” explained Jirabhop. This elaborate setup was part of a broader scheme where some companies were merely fronts for laundering money, without engaging in legitimate business operations. Further inquiries uncovered warehouses filled with goods, many of which were prohibited from import. Some businesses were linked to currency trading, adding another layer of complexity to the investigation. Napintorn Srisanpang, Deputy Commerce Minister, noted the operation stemmed from an agreement between the police and the DBD to scrutinize Thai nominees. He called upon Thai citizens to act as proxies to cooperate with police, allowing them to be treated as witnesses. Additionally, legal and accounting professionals found complicit in these activities will face scrutiny from their respective regulatory bodies, reported Bangkok Post. “The use of Thai proxies not only undermines the economy but poses a significant threat to national security,” stated Deputy Police Chief Thatchai Pitaneelabutr. He stressed the severity of the issue, particularly when these firms are linked to call centre scams or drug trafficking networks. Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-12-06 -- 2024-12-06 -

Canadian Tourist Dies After Slipping on Stairs at a Jomtien Beach Resort
I know you guys don't like to be reminded of this but it's my duty as a Christian to tell everyone. As tragic as this was, it's an accident in thru the eyes of the world but in reality it's a appointment with destiny. Everyone dies. It's just a good thing we don't know when or how. So being prepared to meet the creator is the best thing any of us can be. Hebrews 9:27-28 KJV [27] And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: [28] so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
