Hi all, 

I have a question to this forum:

Are there any special visa or permanent residence roles for a director of a company with a foreign business license?

As additional info: one of the requirements for a 100% foreign owned company in Thailand holding a FBL is that at least one of the Directors most be a resident in Thailand. 

This is so unfair, like Prawit says: “she earlier always insisted that she would not flee”

And now suddenly in oppose to all expectation and precedence in the Taksin family she just run out of the country without prior notice to either police or Prawit himself, very disappointing behavior.

I think we should all give the Police some understanding in this case - I mean honestly who could have prevented this ? 

Some cruel individuals might have suggested that she should have been kept safely in prison until the case was over but it would of course have been a against the legal standards in Thailand to keep people behind bars without a proper trial.

Good resume of the week, the strange thing is how I have become used to all this. I'm sure you will get more good stuff to report week by week until you run out of ink.

Well done, clamp down on the small fish and let the sharks making the big money alone. Very safe method.

So one of two:  You either have to be rich to get in or you get rich after getting in !

Most of these girls are controlled by the guy's that really makes big money. Sex slavery are the right name on this business. As long as someone are willing turn the blind eye to the facts and pay the demand is there.

And how come that these girls ended up in Taiwan? 

I can tell you:

So called Brokers are travelling around in rural areas for example North of Thailand and visit families with teenage daughters and persuade them to let them arrange a "job" for the girl so she can send home good money. 

The girls only get a minor part of the mentioned 2,500 B and the rest goes into pockets of scruples people. 

Simply disgusting.

What a joke! From basically acceptance of corruption combined with minor or no consequences and then to death penalty!!

What really is missing is an updated train service to do the long haul instead of travelling long distance in these van's

There are plenty of crocs in Khao yai and warnings too, I saw a big one in 2010 when trekking with a ranger. Closing up to them is plane stupid.

Everything regarding laws in Thailand is just guidelines including a death sentence......

How tragic. Guns lying around no matter circumstances is simply just a bad idea. Look at statistical data from countries with and without guns in every home and the picture gets crystal clear.

No second hand bike or car can legally be imported to Thailand. Buy a new and safe yourself a lot of hassle.

If this is the story only thing to say is :well done girl and speedy recovery !

Reminds me of a CCTV video of a big guy grabbing a bag from a little school girl on a train station, unfortunately for the thief the girl was a pro taekwondo fighter and kicked him to ground in two seconds, collected her bag and ran away.

Its hard to know if the Thais knew but if the Malay Company have supplied "form D" and can't comply the custom Duty problem is actually not created on the Thai side of the border

When it comes to monks the logic disappears.
I still get surprised how superstitious some very rich an educated people are: Give a future to a monk who are supposed not even to own a pair of flip-flops and your life will turn up great......

Trust is good, QC/ precaution is better, in this case a hotel safe would have been handy for this unfortunate guy

I dont really see any big :Welcome to Thailand" signboard in this 10 year visa for the average "good"  person that just want to relax in Thailand on a normal retirement budget and still spend good money for the benefit of Thailand. Also the 90 day rule without a chance for internet based check-in instead of wasting a day in some Immigration office is very old fashioned.

I have stayed and been running a business in Thailand for over 7 years now with Work permit and Visa done and its still more difficult for me to get the papers done and approved than getting a Schengen visa for my Thai girlfriend when we go to Denmark to visit family. If the Thai immigration had a nationwide Computer system and  a internet self service they would be very much in control like in the EU and it would be great for us people that have chosen Thailand as a long term destination.  

So If Thailand really want to benefit from long stay tourists and business people and companies that want to open subsidiaries there is only one way: Make it easier for us !

I got mine for car and motorcycle in the Mochit Land transport department. Didn't bring bike or car but had both licenses on my Danish driver licence. I had to translate my DK licence to English.

It will be interesting for sure. Maybe Michael More will be right in saying Trump wins and it will be the biggest "F... You" in modern history.

He did it himself just to make the police look bad....

In line with most comments:

Let's see said the blind man!  - if it happens it will I will give it a thumbs up.....

Intertainment again, needless to say but what works is education and in forcing the law.

As long as the main income of the police force is based on running the show like now all other good intentions will not go far.

If they are truly guilty that's it, everyone knows that long noses get no mercy in cort here. If they on the other hand are set up somehow it's a problem.

No wonder that many farmers and other good and honest Thais with land in attractive locations a scared of the land office officials.
