Try the Post Office or a branch Thomas Cook. The larger branches of these should be able to help you.
Don’t use a High Street bank because you’ll get the worst exchange rate.
Preferably find a friend who’s going to Thailand and sell hime the money for ‘cost’.

My wife is Thai and we want to live closer to her family. I want to know all my options for working there; I have a university degree. If you have experience teaching English with a good, decent paying outfit, please tell me about it too.
Thanks!

Is it possible to buy a satellite dish and have it mounted and pointed once I get the right directions? I want to get an AFN decoder through the BX and bring it to Thailand. Since I am retired military I am an authorized user but I want to make sure you can get just the dish before I buy the decoder. Does anyone know if just the dish is available on the market in Thailand. It would be nice to be able to watch any of several football/baseball games depending on the season plus fox news etc.
Thanx in advance for the info’s and assistance

We are 30 and 33 year old professionals, based in San Francisco and planning a honeymoon in Asia in August. We are going to Bali for the first week and then would like to spend 4 nights somewhere in Thailand - Should we go to Phuket or Chiang Mai?? We would want to stay somewhere absolutely fabulous….

Also, how can I find out more information about it?

I am going to Thailand with Hans, Fritz and Otto. We have never been outside Germany and we wonder how it is in Thailand. I want to get a sun tan. Is it too hot for wearing dirndl and lederhosen? Can we get bratwurst in Thailand? I am not really into spicy food from far-away. Are there any German pubs in Thailand? Is it safe to kiss by the beach? Do people speak German in Thailand?

I have lived in Thailand with a non immigrant ‘o’ visa since July however I need to look for work. I understand that I need a non immigrant ‘b’ visa. How can I switch to that one?

At the Canadian Embassy in Bangkok, the Thai woman interviewing applicants for Visitor Visas was rude to the point of nastiness. My wife was sponsored by a female executive of a big international company based in Toronto whom she had assisted for a month while she was on a visit to Thailand to bury her brother; the two of them got on like a house on fire and when Canadian woman returned to Toronto, she wrote and invited my wife to visit with her family over Christmas. My wife is a full-time student at university in Bangkok and the interviewer reduced her to tears by implying that my wife was only going to Toronto as a sexworker. Even though we had all the right papers including the Canadian woman’s payslips and Sponsorship Letter, my wife’s uni results for two full years and our joint bank account details, it was “No Go”. We dropped our application.

Haripoonshai was the first known organized civilization in the north of Thailand and played a central role in the Mon rule of the region from the 8th to the 13th centuries. When King Mengrai led his Thais into the Chiangmai area in the second haft of the 13th century, the Haripoonshai Kingdom of the Mons had already been a flourishing center of culture, art and religion for 600 years. As the Thai conquered the entire north, Haripoonshai became a priority area for King Mengrai and his successors and it was eventually incorporated into the Lanna Kingdom with its capital in Chiangmai.
The Thai adopted many of the Mon Buddhist art forms, particularly in architecture and statuary. In the 13th and 14th centuries, the structures and art of Haripoonshai showed marked signs of the merging of two cultures. Over the following centuries, the art, architecture and religion of the area became one. Today, the Mon Haripoonshai impact on northern Thai culture, particularly in its Buddhist aspects, is crucial to understanding and appreciating the architecture of northern Thailand.
The pure Haripoonshai features of these mediums can still be seen in some of the ancient temples built by Princess Jarmmathaewee 1,200 to 1,300 years ago. These are located in the city of Lamphun (Note: The word is actually pronounced as “Lumpoon”). The six temples are: Wat Jarmmathaewee, Wat Phrathart Haripoonshai, Wat Mahawan, Wat Phrayun, Wat Phrathuri, and Wat Phakhong. The first three of these are the most well-known, but all six date from the 8th and 9th centuries. Today, they are a marvel to view with their ancient jedees and statuary in sandstone and terra-cotta.
The three most outstanding examples of Mon architecture and art are Wat Jarmmathaewee, Wat Phrathart Haripoonshai, And Wat Mahawan. The first is located approximately 1 kilometer west of the city; the second is located between Inthayongyod Road, Lamphun’s main road, and the Guang River on the east; and, the third is two blocks west of the Haripoonshai National Museum, itself across the street from Wat Phrathart Haripoonshai.

When in doubt, ask the embassy to find out.

I’m sure you can apply straight away

I am thai and have Thai passport with shengan visa and now in Sweden will travel to Zuric to visit friend and relative there

not many places.
If you are based in the UK, apply for a shengen visa. This simple visa will allow you multiple entry into almost every western european country for 6 months/ a year.
So, one visa, a lot of countries.

I want to have a good (quick) exploration (buildings (architecture), vegetations, people, transportations, businesses, parks, mountains …) of Thailand in 5 days.
If I visit Bangkok for 2 days then fly to Chiang Mai for 2 days then fly for Krabi for 1 day …. will I succeed my goal (quick exploration) or should I use the trains to get a better overlook?

Check out Sanry’s Money Changer, they have the best rates I’ve seen. You can find a branch in most of the major malls in the city, especially in the Makati area.
