Why so many questions about money on your account?
If not have enough money why stay here. Of course they want to know if you can support yourself in the future. Same in my homecountry. They don’t want to pay for hospital bills for emergency cost (just to make you stay alive) and don’t get paid for it.
You need at least 1,5 million Baht saved to have a decent life regardless what hospital insurance you have.
If not, life can be not as good as you think here in Thailand.
Maybe i am wrong, but I see “Farang” come here without savings and life can get really bad if you get sick or meet the wrong lady
