 no because the budget is limited and you won't be reimbursed if your
 ticket doesnt get approved.

 According to the notes I have from gnokii, your travel is approved for
 $465.  Will you be booking your own ticket and getting reimbursed?

 If $465 is exclusively for travel. then I can book my ticket and get
 reimbursed later.[[BR]]
 Will you be arranging for my accommodation or do I have to pay for it?
 From your reply I understand that the subsidy of $465 is for travel only.
 [[BR]]
 Also is there a way in which the organizers may book my air tickets?

 Will it be okay for me to go for "visa on arrival" after arriving at the

 The e-visa site seems to have some issues.

 Did you get e visa or 'on arrival'?[[BR]]

 I guess 'on arrival' visa won't be a problem.[[BR]]

 Moreover I don't think I need any visa at Bangkok where I have to change
 flight?

 Ticket purchased.  Unfortunately Thai Air has CC rules they don't disclose
 at the time of purchase.  Ticket is valid, but I still need to deal with
 CC verification.  Will continue to work on this.

 Thank you Bex.[[BR]]
 I suppose the ticket you purchased is from Kolkata to Phnom Penh and
 return as per the itinerary I sent you?
 Moreover, do I have to purchase the other ticket that is from Ranchi to
 Kolkata and return or you have that one covered too?

 Have you purchased tickets from Kolkata to Phnom Penh and return or from
 Ranchi-Kolkata-Phnom Penh and return. Please let me know whether I have to
 purchase tickets for my Ranchi-Kolkata return journey or that part too has
 been covered by you?

Comment (by mpduty):

 Can I request for some extra budget?[[BR]]

 My travel subsidy was totally spent in buying tickets from Kolkata <->
 Phnom Penh by bex and I had to book Ranchi<->Kolkata tickets myself which
 cost about USD 120 which is outside my allocated subsidy.

 Bex told me to get in touch with Sirkho for extra budget.[[BR]]
 It would be really good if that could be possible. At least USD 50 would
 be of great help.[[BR]]

 Am I able to connect to Sirkho through this ticket?

 @sirko - how much budget are you allocating?
 @mpduty - you need to upload a receipt.  Boarding passes alone are not
 enough.

Comment (by bex):

 @mpduty at this point it has been 5 weeks since @gnokii made his unclear
 comment that indicates he will approve a budget of somewhere between $50
 and the actual cost of your tickets.  @gnokii is the event owner and he
 has chosen to not clarify his remarks and to not answer any other form of
 communication (email, ticket, IM, irc).  He is not listed on vacation in
 fedocal.

 Because @gnokii's lack of responses in 5 weeks, because the budget for
 this event was allocated by the council, and because the event is
 currently underbudget, I am authorizing the reimbursement for 8151 INR.

 @mpduty, please take the following actions:

 1. Create an account with transferwise.com and send me a request for 8151
 INR to bex @ pobox.com.
 2. Send an email to me at bex @ pobox.com with your full name, account
 number, and any other details required for me to complete the transfer.
 3. Update this ticket acknowledging that the use of transferwise.com to
 send you INR is acceptable.

Comment (by mpduty):

 @bex
 Thank you for the budget approval. That will be very helpful.
 TransferWise.com is okay for me as I shall be receiving the money in my
 local account. However, I shall not be able to create request in INR from
 TransferWise.com as they do not support request in INR. I spoke about it
 to one of their custormer care executives and I was advised to mail my
 local account details to you which you may use to make the necessary
 transfer. Once you use my account details and transfer the necessary
 amount using TransferWise.com, I will be receiving it in my local account
 in INR.[[BR]]
 I have created a TransferWise.com account. And I am sending you my local
 bank account details at b...@pobox.com. I hope it will work well that way.
 No previous experience of this kind though.
