However, i was actually surprised that the baht was still going strong even after the Ringgit inched its way down....RM is S$1 = 2.32RM...so lets hope that the baht will ease a little.....

It's the soft USD vs other currencies. Reason S$ is better of late (vs THB) is MAS tweaking within a broadband of basket of currencies. If only we had a crystal ball..but I wouldn't hazard a bet 24.7 (or did you mean 23.7?) -24 range so soon. If you are right, many bros will be smiling to the bank (ooops, LOS)

Bro, there is always some diff between remittance rates and regular exchange (money shop or ah neh2). Diff sometimes called margin, service charge etc. Your cashing out US$ must have hurt..

Hi bro, i am not too sure about the costs, but the last time i went to bring in some stuff, i decided to check out the rates. It is something like this, please do correct me if i am inaccurate,

They charge either by half container or full container load....something like SGD$2500 or so for the full container load or something. Its about 10m square of space....like i mentioned, i did not bother to find out in detail when i heard the costs. There are other factors to consider, i.e., singapore port duties and taxes, some holding charges and what have you. It turned our quite costly. As i was bringing in some cloth material, i decided to handcarry it over....saved a whole lot....but there are places in jatuchak where they make arrangements for your transport. There are also a few at Pratunam Plaza OTOP where they do tihs service....i suggest you go to these places or ask others who have experience in this for more info....

really sorry about the lack of help. Kor Tort mak...

depends on what you are going there for.

purely sightseeing, should be more than enough.

if going to cheong every day, then might not be enough.

if visit terak, confirm not enough
