Are you permitted to deposit or withdraw money to/from your accounts, as a monk? I'm not asking whether you do, that's none of our business, nor is it a challenge -- I'm only curious, in general, whether Thai monks use personal bank accounts. #53

I have never known a bank to refuse anyone's money...and withdrawl from ATM's is anonymous.
I would imagne many Thai monks have accounts. #54

Ah, good point. Thanks. But I heard that for social work a special work permit and visa is possible. I work in a Buddhist Wat as traditional doctor. My Luang Pho told me, that there is a special work permit possible, for volunteers etc. Can somenone check it out.? I have good young people in Europe who would like to stay in a good Wat. #56

And from the Thai embassy in the UK:
9. An NGO in Thailand has invited me to go there and work for them as a volunteer for 45 days during my school break. I will not earn any money in Thailand. I am a British college student in Liverpool. I understand that I do not need a visa, do I? A: Although you will work as a volunteer, you do need a Non-Immigrant visa as well as the Work Permit. The NGO must be legally registered with the Thai authority, and that you need a recommendation letter from the NGO for your visa application and the Work Permit. #58
