A partnership between local bank Kasikornbank and Thailand Post will provide greater access for rural customers wishing to access their accounts . The postal group have already begun rolling out the scheme in 964 of its 1,300 posts offices , with cash withdrawals expected to be available next year . "It looks promising ahead because banks will likely cut their investment in branch expansion, while Thailand Post ... has the potential to respond to their needs thanks to our extensive network," she said. Cash remains the prominent payment method in Thailand . The deal helps Kasikornbank reach customers who have no local branch without having to expand its physical presence , as well as better serve online customers and shoppers who use post offices for parcel deliveries . The latter has become a significant income source for Thailand Post .
