Why don't banks allow tourists to open limited bank accounts in Thailand?

@Paul ******
 your correct about western countries, I meant basically SE Asia, thought people would presume that, that's why we all want to leave western society, but people have to accept the T&C's of countries they are looking to move to if they don't like it, choose another country that has rules your willing to accept

Mr 5 Bank Accounts just accept the rules, if you don't like it get an expensive visa with more requirements etc or go elsewhere

Mr 5 Bank Accounts it's a privilege tourist visa, you want a bank account, apply for that, but there's lots of conditions with it, you need lots of money, have to get Thai health insurance etc etc

Mr 5 Bank Accounts you still either have to leave after 180 days or apply for extention which is a lot of hassle to do, yes you can come straight back in but that doesn't stop it from being a tourist visa, not everyone does ,
