Im wondering if you can transfer baht into the chinese currency,or the dollar for that matter. Is it out of the question for a foreigner to open an account there? I know its called the rimba and yaun.Maybe Hong Kong is easier than mainland? Im thinking that when China floats its currency it will rise maybe four or five fold against the U.S dollar and some other currencies.Id rather have something that will hold its value and possibly rise a great deal,then at a later date trade it back into baht or dollar. It was easy enough opening an account here in Pattaya,but then everything is easier here. :idea: Rocket
