keep u all updated :D

[maxpee88]

Bros,

May I offer my experiences too?

I travel frequently in the region, to me... I always thought that exchanging for local currency is always best to do so when you are in that country.

Exchanging for foreign currency even in Singapore may not get you the best rates.

For eg... for Malaysian Ringitt. If I change here in Singapore, I get aboout RM2.16 for S$1.00 But if I change at KLIA, the rate is at RM2.18 And if I take the trouble to walk out the malls like Mid Valley, or even Sungeu Wang, I can get RM2.20 rate. Ok - just my 2 cents worth (no pun intended). So dont flame me if you dont agree.

Anyway - back to the BKK THB rate. I was just there last week. The rate was 24.10 for S$1.

[Garage1]

ok, just back from G.mile
ah neh shops offering 24.5 tdy

Report from The Nation dated Friday 27 January 2006 :-

CAPITAL INFLOW: Baht appreciates to a one-year high

The baht appreciated to Bt 38.80 to the US dollar yesterday in intra-day trading, a level not seen since January 14, 2005, with about US$3 billion (Bt116.8 billion) in capital having flowed into the stock market since the start of the year, according to the Bank of Thailand (BOT).

Yesterday’s currency surge was also due to importers purchasing dollars in preparation to buy oil, dealers said.

The baht opened at Bt 39.15-Bt 39.17 (offer and buy prices) and closed at Bt 38.87-Bt 38.89. Dealers said the baht could hover between Bt 38.50 and Bt 39 in the near future.They also said the Singapore dollar and the Korean won appreciated yesterday.

Of the $3 billion in capital inflows, more than $1 billion was used to buy Shin Corp shares in its buyout this week, said Mr Pridiyathorn Devakula, the BOT governor. He said the rest was due to foreign investors’ heightened interest in the economy.

The capital inflows for portfolio investment were $2 billion for all of 2005.

Speaking at the “ Economic Outlook and Strategies for Economic Management” seminar organised by the National Economic and Social Advisory Council, Pridiyathorn forecast that commercial banks’ lending this year would grow 10 per cent, the highest since the 1997 economic crisis, thanks to high industrial capacity utilisation.

Pridiyathorn said loans were likely to grow 10 per cent from 2005, compared to 8 per cent between 2004 and 2005. The double-digit growth is expected due to industrial expansion. Industry was running at an average 74 per cent of capacity in December.

In addition, listed companies, which reported an aggregate net profit of Bt279 billion for the first three quarters of 2005, will also be expanding this year, he said, adding that firms would plough their profits back into operations.

Credit expansion is expected to record double-digit growth for the first time since the 1997 financial crisis, when plenty of companies went bankrupt and the banking system’s non-performing loans skyrocketed.

Despite high capacity utilisation, investors during the last few years delayed their reinvestment plans because they lacked confidence in the economy and were concerned about political conditions, the violence in the deep South and increasing oil prices.

Pridiyathorn said the current-account deficit last year had grown to $3.7 billion. It could have been worse, save for the second half of the year, which saw a surplus of $2.2 billion, compared to a deficit of $5.9 billion in the first half.

He said the current-account deficit would be around $3 billion to $4 billion for some years to come because of high oil prices. But the deficit would not have much impact on the economy thanks to strong international reserves of $53 billion. In addition, capital inflows would help strengthen economic stability.

“The $3 billion-$4 billion deficit is acceptable even if there is no capital inflow at all. But, the deficit will not last for many years,” said the governor.

The governor said he would continue to gradually raise the 14-day repurchase rate, which is currently at 4.25 per cent, in a bid

to slow down inflation and encourage positive real deposit interest rates.

Today, I had changed Thai Baht at S$1 to 23.55THB at Golden Mile .

Regards
Homeaffair

[taurus75]

I personally think the rate will not be over 23.6 or 23.8 till a new governement is formed after the new election..which is rumoured to be 6 mths to a year.

till then...not much drastic drop in exchange rate. think every brudders should not worry too much.

[sibaysong4u]

2day rate @GM SGD$1-$23.5Baht. Knn still beri strong leh.:mad:

2day rate @GM SGD$1-$23.5Baht. Knn still beri strong leh.:mad:

No choice, newspaper already reported their reserves are strong enough to withstand.

[84gunner]

it is not only a matter of their reserves.

when the coup happened, THB drop against USD, but SGD dropped against USD even more than THB's drop against USD!!!

if u noticed, during that time, SGD to THB seem even lower than before the coup. I remember 1 SGD was 24 something THB before the coup. When the coup happened, I wanted to withdraw / exchange SGD to THB, but on seeing the exchange rate, I realised it's even worse.

Thanks to Temasek Holdings & Singtel...

Any update on the rates?

Where is a good place to exchange for good rates in bangkok? :D

[JWNY]

Where is a good place to exchange for good rates in bangkok? :D Honestly bro...if you're changing a small sum, the "difference" is not significant :)

JWNYI may want to change a BIG sum? :D

[JWNY]

I may want to change a BIG sum? :D I'm sure a big sum may get you a rate of TBH 24 ~ 24.5 for each S$1

JWNY

[B.Bollocks]

I know of a good place to change in BKK...but not in Spore...PM me if u wana know...

[mvpexcalibur]

How about the exchange rate at thai airport ?
Guess I have to change some US to Thai baht on my way there .... too bad S$ is so strong .... since I make my pay check in the US ...

[justl00king]

I'm sure a big sum may get you a rate of TBH 24 ~ 24.5 for each S$1

JWNYCan advise where can get such rates? Current only bht 23 to S$1. :)

[B.Bollocks]

Can advise where can get such rates? Current only bht 23 to S$1. :)

it's hard to get 24-24.5 actually...becos the trading rate between banks is even less than that...maybe u can change with the bro who say there is...haha..kidding..no hard feelings... but i changed around 3000 sing for 23.7...compared to 23 , i saved 2100 baht which is close to ard 100 dollars sing.

hi bros,

will be going to bkk next month. any places to recommend to change for good rates for thai baht in bkk?

[yinyang]

...any places to recommend to change for good rates for thai baht in bkk?Unless you're changing a small fortune, little diff to sweat over with. Bring enough cash to change, as ATM rates really sucks + surcharge:D

[ca1vin]

bro yinyang,

so is it ok if i can say that over at bkk airport the exchange rates are also pretty good? can i also check what's the exchange rate now for baht? :)

[yinyang]

..so is it ok if i can say that over at bkk airport the exchange rates are also pretty good?
NEVER change at Changi (lousy rates). Bkk airport better rates. From my experience, change enough at Bkk airport to tide you over initial day or so. City rates sometimes marginally better. Easy to check daily rates and change at most shopping places etc over your trip. Also GM rates competitive for some handy bahts prior to trip. :D

[thaiboy]

Best rate you can get in bkk, even better than golden mile.......:D

225 soi pradipat 21, pradipat road, phayathai, bangkok

tel 02-6157192, call to check the rate

[84gunner]

aiya, even the rates are better at some places, it's not gonna be much better. It's abit better only, the diff is not tat much (mebbe 100 - 200 THB, or slightly more), unless u changing a huge amount, like several tens of thousand US dollars!

mebbe it boosts yr ego abit, saying u got a better rate than elsewhere, feel abit more shiok wif "discount", got a good bargain, etc. But, if u take into consideration the travelling expenses 2 those location, the "savings" u get from the better exchange rate ends up goes 2 the transport expenses.

Generally, the cut-throat places (all over the world) 2 change currencies are at hotels & airports. In China, u wont even get money-changers on the streets! Even u go 2 banks, the queue, plus the number of forms u need 2 fill, and the exchange rate sucks big time!!! Similarly, only star-rated hotels are authorised 2 change currencies, still got lotsa forms 2 fill, the exchange rate oso sucks big time!!!

Outside China, I normally use Int'l ATMs, those wif the "PLUS" System, 2 withdraw local currencies. PLUS System is used widely throughout the world, I have no problems wif it in Australia, Europe & most parts in Asia. Even some ATMs in China oso accept PLUS System ATM cards now! At least, these ATMs are owned by the banks, the exchange rate is more or less pegged 2 Int'l Currency Market Exchange rates, albeit the banks make a little bit profit from it, and some service charge imposed by the banks. The banks still have a business 2 run, they need 2 make some profits! At least, I don't have 2 carry tat much cash everywhere I go. Otherwise, I'll be carrying quite some amount of cash & in more than 10 different currencies wif me at any time!!! It's much more convenient 4 me this way.

Nowadays, I'm not charged the service charges imposed by PLUS System ATM withdrawals. Probably I'm such a frequent traveller, I do it so often until they waived the charges 4 me (might oso be the banks' initiative 2 absorb the charges 4 me), which is even better 4 me. Or mebbe tat's the competitiveness of HK banks. SGP banks still impose the service charges, sometimes dont. Not sure wat's the criteria 4 the service charge waivers. But tis is wat I call "service", the convenience of getting different currencies at reasonable or competitive rates & charges! And dunnit 2 handle too much cash 2 become an eye-sore & attract thieves & robbers!

If I'm going 2 money changers, I may well be spending 1/3 of my time travelling 2 money changers!!!

Dear Brothers
My small contribution for your information.
I am now in Bangkok. Money changer in Sukhumvit Soi 11 giving S$1=Baht23.01; same for money changer located inside a small booth along main Sukhumvit Road near Soi 15; Robsinson's Dept store (next to Westin Hotel) money changer offering Baht 23.04.
The money changer at Robinson's is located next to the store's main entrance; it also offers much better privacy as it is partially enclosed. Be careful when you change money is public areas, there are always many eyes watching you.
Take care & all the best.

so brudders, look at the difference, for every 1 SGD, difference is only 0.03 THB. so if u change 1000 SGD, difference is 30 THB. U gotta change more than 3000 SGD for the difference to touch 100 THB.

With 100 THB, probably juz enuf 2 give some tips to several waiters / 1 taxi trip, depending on where & how far u go some more!!!

Then, if u specially search & travel around 2 get the best money-changer, u either end up spending the difference on transportation, or probably not even enuf for the transport costs, not to mention the time & effort!!!

[krestar]

FYI yesterday was quoted 23.10 Bht - 23.15 Bht at Parkway Parade money changers

[yinyang]

FYI yesterday was quoted 23.10 Bht - 23.15 Bht
Pal, you keeping tabs for your next LOS foray hehehe?:p

[84gunner]

FYI yesterday was quoted 23.10 Bht - 23.15 Bht at Parkway Parade money changers

calculating from the worst case scenario, ie. 23.01 THB vs 23.15 THB, the difference is 0.14 THB per SGD. Again, changing 1000 SGD, the difference is 140 THB.

calculating from the least difference scenario, ie. 23.04 THB vs 23.10 THB, the difference is 0.06 THB per SGD, 60 THB per 1000 SGD.

But then, unless u stay within walking distance from Parkway, or need 2 go there 4 reasons other than changing $$$, take into consideration the transport costs in SGP, parking fees if u are driving, etc, and check if the "savings" vs time spent is worth it?

For most short term travellers (most travel to BKK for not more than 5 - 7 days), normally, flights & hotel rooms are already booked & settled by credit cards, similarly, many F & B, entertainment & shopping can be paid using credit cards. So, how many folks actually need to spend more than 1000 SGD in cash? That means spending more than 23k THB in cash!!!

Well, there's some pple still need more than that, but in general, most pple I see dunnit so much cash. I observed, for most cheongsters, or those go Thailand solely for cheong only, 1000 SGD cash is normally enuf for less than 5 days.

[thaiboy]

exchange rate here in bkk is @ 23.35

[Spore Cuntel]

dear bro, if i am going to get more than 300K baht out of the cuntry, what is the best way to do so legally? thanks

[84gunner]

dear bro, if i am going to get more than 300K baht out of the cuntry, what is the best way to do so legally? thanks

pack the notes into a laptop bag!

Tat's oso wat I do every time, when I'm carrying RMB (more than 100K) outta China. At least, THB has 1000 THB notes. RMB, the biggest is only 100 RMB note!

Of course, the other thing is, dun look nervous, nor pay unnecessary additional attention 2 yr laptop bag. The more nervous u look, the more u r telling pple there's something fishy. The Chinese saying, a thief is guilty in his heart.

[eggkiller]

Then I WIll RECommend A SUper FL for u TO Earn MONEy...hoo..HOO..HOO

Read his question carefully. He said transfer 300K out of the country legally. Not hiding it in bags. :p

[84gunner]

hee hee, ok, I travel / cross countries so frequently, I dunno wat amount is legal, how much is illegal. Some countries' Immigration officers even find my face familiar, hahaha.

ok, to be on the safest, legal side, go to bank & TT lor! Pay the TT charges only mah.

[yinyang]

...dunno wat amount is legal, how much is illegal. ok, to be on the safest, legal side, go to bank & TT lor! Pay the TT charges only mah.
There are exchange controls, more so now with latest capital controls (with large amounts). Not unless you volunteer to declare money has been through maytag washing machine. Dunno what's the new threshold, but old limit was for all to see at Don Muang.

[84gunner]

I go Don Muang Airport v often, but I oso din see & dunno wat's the legal amt, hahaha.

[thaiboy]

50,000 bhat is the max to bring out from bkk;)

[84gunner]

oh, then when go Poipet, whether in or out, likely 2 exceed tat amount!

hee hee, so my method of currency exchange (using PLUS System ATM withdrawal) keeps me safely within Thai laws (or most, if not all countries' laws). It works like local banking service 2 me, dunnit exchange any cash b4 entering Thailand (or most other countries), oso won't withdraw until got more than 50k THB balance when going outta Thailand, hahaha. Probably only exception is if I win that much in Poipet.

[coseaco]

Hi Bro,

Its matter how much u need to change if it's not much change anywhere is still around the same but if you decide to spent a lot than i would advice you to change Big Singapore Note($1000) from the Bank in S'pore before you go coz it fetch a better rate.;)

Enjoy ur Trips!
Kindly up me Bro:)

[84gunner]

besides TT, the other method to do it legally, is like wat I'm doing everywhere I go (sometimes except China), use PLUS System ATM.

So if u have tat much cash, put into local Thai bank acct, open 1 acct if u do not oredi have 1, and get an ATM card wif PLUS System. Then when u are outside Thai, go 2 the local ATMs tat support PLUS System, 2 withdraw cash / local currency.

This way, u dun have 2 pay TT charges, but PLUS System service charge may be imposed.

Oso, depending on the local ATMs' daily withdrawal limits & currencies' exchange rates, u may have 2 do it over several days.

[ca1vin]

Bros,

today's exchange rate for thai baht is 23.5

[84gunner]

hey, u guys sure u are looking at the correct rates? I checked the bank's rates via their websites, both SGP & Thai banks, oso dun have so high rates leh. some more the diff is more than 0.40 THB from those posted here!!!

For SGP banks, I look at THB Notes sell rate, ie, notes (cash) exchange, the financial institutions sell THB (take-in SGD) to consumers.

For Thai banks, I look at SGD Notes buy rates, ie, they buy SGD (pay-out THB) from consumers.

Though I monitor more on exchange rates wif EUR & USD, cos these rates are more applicable 2 me.

[XX26]

Bros,

today's exchange rate for thai baht is 23.5

which money changer provide this rate?

[84gunner]

Walao act high class is it?

no lah, these currencies are directly related to my salary, but I'm working (travelling) & staying in AsiaPac region, wif occasional travel to Europe.

Juz 2 give u a little more details, my current salary was negotiated in USD, but juz at the point of penning things down in black & white, the coy requested if they can pay in EUR instead. I am fine wif tat, and used the USD vs EUR exchange rate at tat time (v early tis year), so my salary in my contract is in EUR. I am v happy now, cos USD dropped a hell lot!!! If the coy din request or if I din agree 2 use EUR as my salary payment currency, I'd have indirectly suffered a pay-cut! My salary bank acct is in a country / currency tat is directly pegged to USD.

If u were me, would u monitor exchange rates of EUR, USD & several AsiaPac currencies?

[totti79]

Not very good news for people who frequent bkk regularly and convert large amounts i guess. Todays exchange rate 21.5 when i looked at mustafa forex website:( . They have competitive rates for any currency. You go to golden mile and change baht also can't be much diff. Apparently some events in the financial market this morning i guess. Something i have no background to comprehend but hope this thing changes soon enough. I guess samsters like 84gunner who may have more knowledge in this may kindly enlighten us if they have the time.:)

[totti79]

Hi,
Thanks for the toa payoh info. Had a shock when i saw the mustafa rate today. was 23.09 yesterday there too. http://www.mustafa.com.sg/forex.asp Then i went to see news if anything funny happen, then i was led to this from googles news site : http://www.thestandard.com.hk/news_detail.asp?pp_cat=22&art_id=36926&sid=11910036&con_type=1 I think i better change my money today too, since someone says theres 1 is to 23 somewhere. Still got some hope.:)

Thanks.

tat rate at mustafa is damn cut-throat!!! It could have been a typo error. Did u check the banks' websites? I juz went 2 ATM 2 withdraw THB cash ytd afternoon in BKK, havent check my bank acct yet. Din hear any big news either, except few days ago's trading, there was abit of hooha in the market, there was quite some "spread" between the offshore & onshore markets, n BoT kinda stepped in 2 try 2 mitigate.

Basically, planning 2 change currencies a few days earlier or later, is same as playing the stock market. +++ about tat, many pple would straight away jump 2 shares market, aka as securities. This was seen in my postings in another thread, when I mentioned the economy & financial markets, some pple jumped straight 2 say they have some blue-film, oops, blue-chip shares, hahaha. Mebbe these pple only know got securities (aka stock) market, tat's all.

There are many different objects, or instruments, which are traded in the financial markets. The most commonly known is of course the securities market, oso commonly known as stock market, where some members here have some blue-film shares. Other more commonly known markets are commodities, currencies, futures, bonds, treasury, etc etc.

+++ about currencies trading market, there are several trading centers in various parts of the world; in AsiaPac, they are traded in Sydney, +++yo, SGP. From time zone difference, the furthest behind is USA. So, the currencies markets are actually trading round the clock, starting from Monday morning Sydney time till Friday afternoon USA time. Tat is why sometimes u hear some "stock market" traders say they have 2 monitor the market, even when it's SGP nite time (or even midnite), when SGP market close trading 4 the day liao.

U wont know whether the market is going up or down. U look at the rates now, it looks going down, u wanna change now, a few days earlier b4 yr trip, b4 it drops further, so u get better rates now. But then, often, the markets can juz U-turn within seconds! So, wat happens if juz after u change the currencies, the markets U-turn, then u squeeze balls, dampen yr mood 4 the trip?

Currencies trade in 4 decimal places, and fluctuating by 1 cent (2 decimal places) is quite alot oredi!!! So, if u are changing 100 SGD, the difference is how much, change 1000 SGD, difference is how much? Mebbe when u gain abit at the exchange rate, u feel shiok, but I'll say it's juz the ego feeling, like as if u kio-tio some discount, better bargain at the same product than other pple. Even if u change several thousand SGD, the difference may not even be able 2 cover the taxi fare from airport to town!!!

Tat's why, 4 me, I'd rather save the time & transport fares travelling 2 the money-changer. If I wanna speculate the exchange rates, I'll speculate in the financial (currency) market. The amount of miscellaneous cash needed 2 spend on the streets is really 2 little, compared 2 trading in the markets, 2 waste my time & efforts 2 bother about. I'd rather save the time & effort 2 tink of or do something I feel is more productive. The savings, or difference, dunno whether enuf 4 a taxi trip anot.

haha, if everyone tinks & do like me, all the money-changers on SGP streets can close-door liao. But then, how many times a year I go SGP? less than 5% of my time in a year. hee hee, another whack at SGP businesses.

[yinyang]

Such a 2 pt change to 21 is not likely to go unoticed, and there's been no earth shaking circumstance over the last week. Agree, for us ordinary folks it's simply not worthwhile to sweat over choice of money changer -save for hotels and airports which are worse places to change (maybe emergency). Destiny of $$ rates is not in your hands (except for puyings hehehe), only big players in money markets.:p

Btw, you are blessed as an expat in overseas posting. No offence to your (sometimes hard hitting bias) stand, but surely there are some SG plusses too? We are seeing a new breed of SG expats to region over recent years, eg Vietnam. There must be some redeeming factors from our system -education, infrastructure, instituitions etc. :D

[84gunner]

We are seeing a new breed of SG expats to region over recent years, eg Vietnam. There must be some redeeming factors from our system -education, infrastructure, instituitions etc. :D

I admit, I am damn fxxking biased & prejudiced, &, I wish 2 clarify, I'm not an expat in overseas posting.

I am not employed by any coy in SG & then posted overseas. I am directly employed by companies outside SG, where the coy doesnt even have an office nor any operations in SG. Therefore, no CPF, no income tax in SG.

Anyway, I oso find the CPF system crap. It's juz another name game, the $$ is in yr acct, under yr name, but u cant touch it. How much u can withdraw / touch when u are at the eligible age is a billion-dollar question!!! Use it 2 buy property, who sells HDB flat 2 u? Use it 2 buy medical insurance, who sells the insurance 2 u?

In another forum, I mentioned tat by looking at another point of view, CPF may be viewed as another form of tax, juz tat the name & way of administering is different from the conventional way. The $$ is deducted from yr monthly salary, it is held in yr name, under yr acct. Whether u can get it back anot is a billion-dollar question. The main difference is, pple are not so upset becos it's in their name, they still feel it "belongs" 2 them, they "own" it, rather than paying it straight 2 the gahmen & say goodbye 2 it! It's a psychological game. When u view it as a form of tax, then all working SGPeans are paying a basic tax of 20%, the other tax tat u declare & file every April is additional, 4 those who's salary is higher & needs 2 pay "income tax"! On top of tat, yr employer is oso paying tax on a portion of yr salary!

Wat does the gahmen do wif these $$ ? buy expensive toys (military equipments, ships, planes, etc), "invest" overseas. When the investment makes $$, they get the credit. When it loses $$, nvm, it's not their own $$, juz give some excuses, & shut the pple's mouths up.

After a series of coy-close-down & retrenchments, I'd had enuf, decided 2 call it quits. Best part is, those days, SG head hunters call me up wif job offers, wanna cut my salary by at least 20%, then can tell me my coy is closing down, I should be happy & thankful got job offer, still wanna bargain 4 same salary???

Therefore, when job hunting, I'd reject all SG jobs. Eventually, accepted a China job offer wif an MNC. Little did I know tat the top Mgr & snr mgmt personnel of China office is SGPeans. The offer was semi-local terms, ie. higher salary than many locals, but then no expat benefits such as accomodation, fly-back air tickets, etc etc. We were managed in similar style as in SG (the mgmt even tried 2 apply SG law to us even though it's in China). About slightly more than a year after joining the coy, I led a labor strike, most of us (80% of employees) left the coy and the top mgmt was replaced shortly after.

Ever since quitting SG, I had been directly employed overseas, ie, paid in foreign currency, employment permit, pay tax overseas, no CPF crap, rent my own apartment, no fly-back air ticket nor home leave, etc etc.

U have oredi said, I'm biased, I dun see any pluses in SG except there's no natural disasters! I'm used 2 typhoon strikes, earthquakes (Taiwan & China), labor strikes, protests / demonstrations, (Govt) revolution, terrorist bombings, etc etc. Well, if u tink u prefer the "stable & safe" life in SG w/o those, there's nothing wrong wif tat, juz tat I find these events / occurences as being in the real world, in reality, not the artificial world / life in SG. At least I wont be a suaku, being shocked until dunno wat 2 do except mebbe juz screaming.

Despite the "stable & safe" environment in SG, u hear SGPeans complain more than most, if not all, other pple in the world!

Talk about the education system, look at the spoilt brats / young kids nowadays, no respect 4 elders, no manners, rude, selfish, self-centred, arrogant, etc etc. All's in their eyes is only academic & job / career advancement, the paper chase, the rat race. End up, u see plenty of wood blocks wif impressive paper qualifications, high ranks, etc, but how effective & productive?

Not 2 mention, many so-called Chinese cant even speak Chinese properly (not to mention their own dialects), if at all, yet they still dare 2 call themselves Chinese? Tat's being a shame on their ancestors, shame on Chinese culture! If the education system dont teach their mother's tongue at all, tat's still forgivable. I'd seen other nationals, either their country's education system does not teach Chinese, or Chinese language is banned & illegal, but their elders somehow still insists they know the language, & teach them or make them learn, by hook or by crook. The simple reason is, as a Chinese, u must know Chinese. My ang moh associates told me, if u dunno yr own language & culture (unless legal reasons), how do u expect others 2 respect yr culture / roots when u dun even know nuts about it? Many mainland Chinese & Taiwanese are mocking those SGPeans when they said they know / can speak Chinese v well, yet more often than not, cant write the correct words, mixing wif other dialects, not 2 mention other languages, etc. The more outspoken ones oso said it's an insult 2 Chinese culture!!!

U go read SG local news, u see all sorts of policies & new policies, complains & more complains. SGPeans are demanding 4 perfection, everything in perfect accordance 2 their opinions & wishes. I thot I mistook it; demanding 4 perfection in life?

U see all sorts of taxi surcharges & price increments, promising a "better" service quality after the increments, yet, u get even more complains of taxis "hiding" away, touting & refusing 2 turn on the meter, etc etc. In the service industry, shouldnt service quality be a top priority, regardless of the $$ charged? Recently, I'd even personally seen taxi drivers touting inside Changi Airport's passenger terminals, until the touts quarrelled (fighting 4 business), almost started fighting. Tat time, I thot I was in another country!!! Whether I was in China, Taiwan, Thailand or several other countries, where there's no such thing as midnite charge or watever crap surcharges, I still have no problems getting any taxi at any hour, round the clock! In some cities, I can even negotiate a discount off the meter!!! Note tat it's not negotiating a fixed price b4 travelling, but negotiate a discount, turn on the meter, then travel!!! If the taxi driver is hardworking, he drives more, he's likely 2 earn more. Those who're lazy, naturally earns lesser! With more rules & policies & surcharges, tat'll only indirectly encourage more of such crap!!!

If this is the "civilised", "well-educated" 1st World so claimed, then I cant imagine wat it's like in the 3rd Worlds!!!

Wat is it about the new breed of expats 2 Vietnam?

[yinyang]

I admit, I am damn fxxking biased & prejudice.. If this is the "civilised", "well-educated" 1st World so claimed, then I cant imagine wat it's like in the 3rd Worlds!!!

Hi Bros,

Anyone knows the updated sin to thai exchange rate . Will be going bangkok in 1-4 march. Will appreciate if bros can also state down the best exchange location. Thanks in advance.

[totti79]

The rate over the past 2 weeks at Arcade in raffles place was about 23.00 to 23.15, always up and down ard there. Not sure how the rates elsewhere in sg is, but arcade is a place with a lot of money changers and tons of singaporeans work in raffles place/ tanjong pagar.

[jinrenhe]

sorry dun rely understand ... how come the rate is so good at s$1= 23 baht?

the rate posted at DBS is only s$1= 21.22 baht (converted from 100 bahts=$4.7120)

the internet FX convertor also shows $1= 21.80 baht

i tod money changer would usually offer a less attractive rate? (jus asking out of curiosity)

bro, i juz change at golden mile yesterday..
its 1 to 23 :)

[Nismo_boy]

Thank you bros who provide me with the exchange rate. Im also quite surprise with the rate .

[nama75007]

ya think golden mile's rate is one of the highest in sg :cool:

[jinrenhe]

bro, i juz change at golden mile yesterday..
its 1 to 23 :)

wow that's high... btw can senior bro explain how come money changer seem to offert better rates than those i see on bank website ?

so it's better to go money changer than bank for change of currency? i always tod bank offer better rates since they have economies of scale (sorry newbie to this foreign xchange stuff... but plannin to go BBK soon)

[scorelan]

In my opinion, these are the rating for the money changer in singapore:

1) Golden Mile
2) Geylang Between Lor 10 & 12. (Beside is a provision shop)
3) Bugis Junction (road junction beside UOB & DBS atm machine)
4) Choa Chu Kang LOT 1 Shopping Centre (Basement 1)

Pls correct me if i am wrong. For sharing. :)

[Highfive]

got the rate in chinatown, people's park centre, about S$1=TB23.15 on monday, there are many money changer in china town, ask around to get the best rate.

Yes, they hav economies of scale but those saving R nt passed 2 ordinary folks, lik me who go & change 4 $1~2k ONLI. If U wan 2 open a term saving account (3mth or more) in FX, then maybe k100k~500k k give U a better rate, otherwise, U mus be able 2 change millions 2 enjoy those high inter-bank rate.

Since there's so much money-changer, tat's why money-changer mus give better rate than bank, except 4 those super unpopular currencies where very little ppl chg, then the money-changer mus need 2 charge higher comission as they oso knt gt better rates fm bank since they oso dun enjoy benefits of scale.

Orchard Rd gt gd rates 4 USD$.
Golden Mile gt gd rates 4 Baht$.
Wdlnd gt gd rates 4 Ringet$.
...

[apui]

in Chinatown Peoples park complex also got not bad rates:D

Yesterday went Golden Mile change Thai baht. The rate I changed was 23.08. Day before the highest at golden mile was 23.10. Wow within 1 day rate drop 0.02. Before making a trip down golden mile i actually went down chinatown to check out the rate as 1 bro mention people's park centre got rate with 23.15. I found none and highest around chinatown is only 23.02. I expected rate to drop further so bros who will be going bangkok better change 1st before price continue to drop.

Just returned from bangkok at midnight, this afternoon in MBK center at the BTS station my friend changed for 1 to 22.92, not sure if its the best rate in town but that changer is a huge chain. The blue board one i think its run by some local bank and can be seen in many places in bkk.

The difference between PPC and GM is a difference of 0.06baht.
If let's say you change 1000 SGD, you get 60baht extra by changing at GM.

However the transport from PPC to GM is roughly (estimated $1 if you take MRT)
60baht approx equal to $2.60
Minus the transport of $1, still make $1.60

WORTH IT MEH? Unless you change $10000SGD, then get an extra 600baht.:confused:

[Nismo_boy]

Hi siamcutey,

Thanks for your breakdown. This simple calculation i also know how to count. I went there was becos I went to chinatown that day for some other things so must as well check it out for bros here. If purposely go down to check of course I know that it will not worth it. So if it is confirmed that the rate is 23.15 as what 1 bro mentioned so future bros can go there to change directly. My intention is to verify the 23.15 rate and provide info for bros here since Im there and is not becos Im so stingy to search the entire singapore for the best price. That is why there is such a thread for thai baht update. Just stating my point of view and forgive me if you think Im sounds rude to you.

I wont weep cos she sometimes can be very fan one. Sometimes i need to sleep alone,but she insist to go lunch or come over and see me. That's why dickhead friend see me in RSAF shirt on a sunday Brunch time. Ask me to go lunch with her when i barely sleep a few hours. :(

[84gunner]

talk about RSAF T-shirt, probably u might see more Thais, especially those in construction / living in slumps wearing SAF T-shirts & uniforms, hahaha.

Few months back, when I went to SG, I wanted to donate some old clothes to the poor & needy in Thailand, so besides the civilian clothes, I packed all the SAF T-shirts (Navy, Army, RSAF), uniforms, etc etc, and then bring to Thailand. Few days after touching down, a fire broke out in a slump in BKK (near the Stock Exchange), so I personally delivered all those clothes to the slump, and oso donated several thousand THB.

Tat was during winter, when u see the families hugging 2gether, under those tentages which were their temporary homes. Tat was the time where survival matters, having enuf clothes to keep warm, to protect them from cold weather. Juz nice, SAF uniforms are thick enuf for them.

So u may see "SAF personnel" around the Stock Exchange of Thailand, hahaha!!!

I been thru 3 services in SAF!!!

Those days I damn poor, I wear SAF T-shirts at home (oso as pyjamas), so dunnit 2 buy civilian clothes 2 wear. I oso asked frens & relatives 2 gimme the clothes they dowan, civilian & SAF clothes. 1 of my ex-gf was damn tulan, cos my "cabinet" was mostly hand-me-down (2nd hand clothes tat frens & relatives dowan & pass to me & family) clothes!!!

I joking with u lah.:p

Wow,no wonder u hate SG so much. Wear SAF short at home nothing wrong one lah. Got money means must wear burberrys at home,guess underwear meh? Not like u would wear RSAF shirt to Gclubs. That is really something wrong.I also see SG guys wear Tshirt and bermudas go Nana before.:D

But at least u made it nw!!And now overseas if i am not wrong rite.

I know u joking lah, hahaha.

I ever wear SAF T-shirts to KTVs, brothels, MPs & agogo leh!!!

u dunno meh? 2 many pple, "face" is more important than anything else. Like, many pple will take loans, overdrafts, owe credit cards, etc, juz 2 show-off tat they can afford 2 wear tis, can afford 2 own tat, etc etc, spending more than they can afford. Tat ex-gf oso like tat (if not, y she tulan?). After "eaten" oredi, kick her away (break-off), hahaha.

If u earn pple's respect, hardworking & got capability, mebbe if u got abit achievement, u'll naturally have lotsa "face". Many pple will auto give u face, many pple oso wanna carry yr balls. It's those who dun earn others' respect, yet have low self-esteem & very gian "face", tat they feel "shiok" when they chak or suan pple, feel superior when they "win" in these minor situations, 2 "overcome" their low esteem / inferior complex. How u expect these pple 2 do big things? Tat is y I say 面子是人家给的，脸是自己丢的！

I'm somewhere in AsiaPac most times. If still in SG, I'd either still be running in circles wif the rat race / revolving financial cycle or simply struggling 2 survive. I'm in SG probably less than 5% of my time.

That is why i see those always come in here to chak (newbies) really CMI. They need to get recognition or duno simi sai here. True,they do feel "superior" in the forum because of the seniority here. That is the only "face" they can get in and out of cyber. :rolleyes:

I should wear more often RSAF shirt in bkk then. haha...:D what matters is whether i am enjoying myself here instead of just being in SG wearing branded clothes.

aiya, pple can make it or cant make it, let them & their output, the facts, prove themselves lor. some more, the definition of can make it or cant make it is not specified. So, arguing here until the cow comes home oso no use. But then, I'm 1 such person who doesnt like such "measurement" or definition, tools of management to measure things until everything becomes too bureaucratic & inflexible. End of the day, if everyone happy, can liao. Pple happy wif wat they have, their achievement(s), u happy wif yrs.

So, which way are u happier: wearing branded stuffs & staying in SG, or wearing SAF T-shirts & staying in BKK?

True,definition of being successful is so vague. How successful u want to be? Become influential President of US? Become rich like Bill Gates? There will always be someone who is much more successful than u are.And what's the use of trying to be them and not be contented with what u have. By being a good chaker or someone who had farked all the WLs in GL? Does that qualify as a success? :rolleyes: End of day,as long as u are happy and contented with what u have,that is what i call a successful and happy life. f forever trying to outdo someone along the way,grumpy about other's successful story,one could see how pathetic that person can be.

As long as I am myself,i am happy wearing either branded or SAF Tshirts. At least i do not need reap JOY and satisfaction from putting people down in a forum. they need to "overcome" their low esteem / inferior complex that is why they chose to laugh at people.;)
