    If anyone is interested I have an update on this. Not being one to fanny about I hot-footed it to Bangkok Bank today booted and suited and armed with a plethora of paperwork and my passbook for Krung Thai Bank.

    F.C.D Bangkok Bank account

    Thanks CoCo I think it might be wise to start afresh with Bangkok Bank too.

I've heard that Bangkok Bank does not do this...

    Thanks for the information gents, much appreciated. It seems my informant is misinformed. And I was getting all excited too. I'll have to leave it until next year. I'm going to Cambodia to visit Bantheay Chhmar temple. I think it's accessible from the Cambodian side. I've looked on the web...

    Access to Preah Vihear (AKA Khao Phra Viharn)

    Hello folks..... I've just been told that Preah Vihear (Khao Phra Wiharn) is now open for tourists again and has been so for about two weeks.
