How Many Notorious Foreign Criminals Are Hiding Out in Thailand?
I still have an overdue library book that I borrowed 55 years ago from Leicester Childrens' Library, and I'm still hiding from the British police..... -

What Thai bank credit card do you have?
While I have a Krungsri Exclusive card, I was curious if I could also obtain a Krungsri Visa Infinite card, if, and only if, I could get the bank manager to waive the 3,500 THB annual fee for the Krungsri Visa Infinite card. The 'argument' I tried was that in addition to having the amount in Krungsri to qualify for the Krungsri Exclusive card (via cash deposit and Krungsri operated mutual funds), I also had pension income (albeit foreign) ~$60k US equivalent/year, and it will exceed ~$80k US starting next year. So I asked given that, would they waive the 3,500 THB/year if I applied for the Krungsri Visa Infinite Card (this card comes with an extra airport lounge access, and possibly (I need to confirm) rental car insurance coverage). The bank manager was happy for me to apply for the card, BUT advised no waiving of the 3,500 THB annual fee. If my income had been income from Thailand, the bank manager may have waived the annual fee, but not with my income being foreign income. Oh well - it was worth a shot. I used my SCB planet card for the first time, albeit it took me 3x before I succeeded with a foreign payment (not in Thai baht). The first time the SCB planet card transaction was blocked because by default it is set to block all foreign transactions. So I changed that. The second time the SCB planet card transaction failed, as I had not pre-deposited enough funds in the Planet card account to pay for the transaction (I had MORE than enough in my SCB savings account). So I transferred funds from the SCB savings, to the SCB planet card account, and tried again a 3rd time to do a foreign transaction, and this time I succeeded. -

Low IQ democracy
Absolutely, it starts at the level of poo yai ban, once they ascend to the level of the "or bor dor " or the "tetsaban" there must be huge amounts of cash available for the taking. The existing head of the tetsaban here has already reportedly payed 1000 bt per person with another 200 per head due this morning -

No one is above the law even New Jersey politicians.
I have not touched alcohol for 30 years since my sister was killed by a drunken driver and I found my Savious. Alcohol is a root of evil. Apologise for that quip. Being under the influence of alcohol or drugs is deeply shameful, and a sign of a weak and ungodly character. -
