another cool morning. kns, last night machiam like never sleep like that. close eye open eye morning liaoz. now at shop.

Hi bro. Good everything started for you. I'm back in Bangkok but no trip to Pattaya until mid this year I am sure cos very busy. Hope you're enjoying whatever you're doing though the work may be hard. If you can get a good helper who is experience running such things will not only ease you but inject some expertise into the business.

Just taking a dig at Chon, as he probably needs new venture capital for his next opening of arb nam joint. :p

Anyhow, for Pfingo ...hear it "varies" from bank to bank (on proving your residency ie work visa etc). Maybe can try asking UOB Thai? Anyhow, ThaiVisa forum has some (old) answers:
