Airbus to scrap A380 superjumbo production as sales slump
Aforek replied to webfact's topic in World News
I feel you are American yes, Boeing is very good, in the past I have travelled one time in a Boeing 777 and was very impressed, but, you know, I am European, so I hope Airbus will fly many many years more, they have proved that they can build wonderful planes like the A380 -

No A380 anymore doesn't mean that we can't fly with it anymore: she can fly about 30 years more , and Airbus is not finished: 890 aircrafts to build in 2019 ( a220, a320, a330 neo and A350 ) -

what type of bank account?
Aforek replied to samsensam's topic in Thai visas, residency and work permits
I suppose that before you were not at Krungsri Bank ; how did you transfer the 800000 bahts to the new bank ? may be I could be interested, but I want to keep my saving account with SCB; there is a Krungsri bank a few hundred meters from my bank and what you describe is better than the SCB fixed account -

Aforek replied to samsensam's topic in Thai visas, residency and work permits
These two last years ( last time of my extension with a fixed deposit of 800000 bahts : october 2018 ), Prachinburi IO accepted my FD , no problem next month, I'll go and ask them if for the future and the new rules, they will still accept it -
You are unlucky and I am sorry for you; it depends really of people ! I never take money from ATM, always cash from the desk , in three SCB branches, and never had any bad attitude from the staff; withdraw cash is a normal operation
-
I have a SCB account for more than 10 years, 3 different branches, nothing to blame , nothing to complaint , nice and smiling women, but because it's up country, they don't speak good English , better to speak Thai with them

How Do You Spell Farang?
Aforek replied to blackcab's topic in Farang Pub - fun, entertainment and Expat life
Because phonetics represent the sound, not the spelling, the only acceptable spelling is " falang " , not farang ( have you ever heard a Thai say " farang " ? ) they are unable to pronounce our " r " -

Right, the rest is only phonetics , for people who can't read or write Thai every nationality has is own way to write it with it's own script ; how do you spell it in Chinese ? -
You have problems with politics here? nobody disturbs me here , I don't make problems and no visits of police, military etc ...
