Upon arrival do you have to show to immigration a bank account with 500,000 thb baht inside ?

Also , can I go via border by bus? Or its compulsory to fly in??
Answer summary
Upon arrival in Thailand, you generally don’t have to show proof of having 500,000 THB in your bank account unless specifically asked by immigration officers. It's advisable to carry some cash, typically around 20,000 THB. Traveling to Thailand can be done via various means, including bus, car, train, or plane; flying is not compulsory for entry.

What to do is simply WAIT.

Nothing is published in the Royal Gazette and the changes will go into effect 15 days AFTER that publishing. No need to post old news over and over again.

You travel in/out by bus, car, train, boat and plane. Some border crossings allow walk in/out.
