Report Thailand Bets on Medical Tourism to Revive Economy
Had bilateral knee replacement (both knees) in Bangkok Hospital, Udon Thani a couple of months ago. Cost was 405,000 baht. ~$12000 us dollars. Not a bad deal. Top notch treatment. Only problem was a slight language barrier which my Thai wife took care of.👍 -

Report Press Freedom in Question as White House Ousts WSJ Over Epstein-Linked Coverage
The WSJ should get revenge by launching an investigation into all the things they can get on Trump's relationship with Epstein. Interview Maxwell in prison. Publish as his plane touches down in Scotland. If there is no evidence, then just be quiet. -

KPlus is now almost useless to me after 4 years without issues they impose this on me
"Was it also the case that the normal debit card issued with a savings account could not be used to make this payment @TigerandDog ? If this is the case then the rules are very flawed" Firstly, I had no trouble transferring the 400k from my interest bearing account to my everyday account as they were both with ttb. The 50k restriction does not apply to transfers between your own accounts at the same bank. Secondly, please tell me how I'm supposed to go to an ATM and use a debit card, when I'm flat on my back in a hospital bed, fighting for my life after a cardiac arrest? I ain't giving my debit card and pin # to anybody. Thirdly, the rules are very flawed. This is typical Thai thinking. Come up with a band aid solution to make it look as though something is being effectively implemented to reduce scamming and money laundering, AND by applying this to ALL foreign held Thai bank accounts is implying that every foreigner that holds a bank account in Thailand is either a scammer or money launderer or both. Absolutely no thought process given to the impact this will have on foreigners, especially us more senior ones. Not only does it impact on, in my situation, the need to transfer that 400k to the hospital as a deposit, think about every foreigner that holds health insurance with a Thai insurance company. based on our age, level of cover etc annual premiums will most likely be anywhere from 75k upwards. How are we supposed to renew our health insurance if we're limited to 50k per day. Health insurance companies are not going to accept multiple payments to renew a policy. I can think of several situations that will also be affected by this ridiculous rule that would have an impact on local communities. e.g. you go to a travel agent to book a trip to your home country or just for an overseas holiday with your wife/girlfriend and kids if there are any. A good chance those air fares could cost more than 50k. The airlines/travel agents will NOT accept multiple payments to secure those air fares. If you want to buy a new car, and pay cash for it, you won't be able to because of the 50k daily limit. I want to repay the loan my wife was able to obtain in 1 payment, but I can't, so instead it has to be daily transfers of 49,999 until repaid in full, which then means if I need to do transfers for personal reasons, like pay power bills etc, I have to the then take longer to repay the loan. This whole 50k daily transaction limit ONLY on bank accounts held by foreigners is a joke, especially when you read stories of scammers and money launderers being arrested and they are all mostly Chinese or Thai. I would love to see a class action taken out by all the foreigners that hold Thai bank accounts against the BOT and the senior personnel that came up with this dumb decision for defamation, because technically under Thai defamation law they have ruined/impugned the reputation of every foreigner in Thailand that holds a Thai bank account. I've also written to the BOT pointing out the flaws in their ridiculous decision to impose this 50k daily transaction limit using my medical emergency as an example, and I know that email has been read, but of course no reply has yet been forthcoming because they will lose face by having to admit they f'd up. -
