[Health Care]

I lived in Thailand many years as a younger man and want to return there to live. I am currently on Medi-Care and Va health care for end stage renal disease. Does any one know if either of these programs will pay for my dialysis in Bkk? I can afford to live off my disability, but can not pay for the dialysis.

[Transfering Funds To Thai Banks]

I've a friend in Bkk that makes very nice costume jewelry using silver and semi- precious stones. She would like to sell these items on eBay in the USA but is having problems with depositing checks into her checking account. Pay Pal will not work for her, nor it seems any other means to transfer the funds to her account. We are looking for suggestions to make this process eaiser for her. I have agreed to act as her agent here in the US and perhaps list her art on a Yahoo or eBay store. Has anyone had this problem? She said that sometimes the bank fees etc. exceed the value of the check.

It also seems that since 9/11, a person must actualy reside in the US in order to open a bank account. (At least Bank of America said so.)

We would really appreciate any help from someone that has already encountered this problem.

Thanks!

[Online credit card processing, for thai businesses]

I have a similar problem in that a Thai friend of mine wants to sell her hand made jewelry on eBay and is having a dickens of a time handling funds.  It seems her bank wants to charge more than the transaction was worth.  Hope this solution will help her.  Thanks for posting the link.  Any additional information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again.
