Quite true, but all these money-grabbing policies are quite normal amidst such widespread corruption.

@Tyler ******

you mean one night or two 😜

I’ve never transferred with NAB, but they’re international withdrawal fees are just ridiculous

@Bernie ************

bank transfers are too slow and usually very bad exchange rates and silly fees to boot. Never heard of TorFX though

Places to avoid? Pattaya!

Very useful info, thank you

@Peter ******

at that time, it was not daily, nor was it frequent, maybe once or twice a week. Then it stopped and returned a couple of months later.

I was foolish enough to go to a local clinic when I noticed some blood in the urine some years ago. Was given some meds and told to stay off the booze for a while. Shortly after that I had to return to Australia. Similar thing happened, visited doctor to learn I had stage 3-4 bladder cancer. My point is that only highly paid doctors in Thailand will do their job. Go to a reputable private hospital or go back home where lives still matter and that Hippocratic oath still means something. All the best mate 🙏

This legal site has the info you need (nothing to do with me- just has info you need):

Keep in mind that almost every dog here is a street dog (mangy, dirty, rabid) whether they appear to have owners or not. Thais do not treat pets the same way we do. It will probably be very stressful and possibly tragic for your dog unless of course it's a vicious pitbull.
