I thought a copy of all the pages in my bank book was not necessary now but maybe I'm wrong. Thanks for your input.

Georgetown Malaysia.

Get a re-entry permit?

Especially if any shops/ restaurants and to some degree bars (won’t drink and drive) are all within a reasonable walking distance to our home. ....When comparing costs don't forget that if you rent a home in an area such as this it's going to cost you a lot more. Having a vehicle gives you options and you don't have to haggle with a driver every time you want to go somewhere and during the high season have to wait for long wait times to find an available driver. Consider this also, when you buy a vehicle and maintain it properly and later want to sell it you will recover at least 50% of your investment.

It's been lowered to .5 million baht.

@Ham *******

and every other shop also puts their daughter/son through university Lol. Universities must be full.

@Steve *******

@David *****
