Immigration System Overhaul Underway at Suvarnabhumi Airport
Cadan replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Left abroad Saturday and the airport around 6 am is super busy. However this time was amazing with the automated system for passengers to leave. Zero queue. I could not believe how quiet it was. Almost deserted. Even hand luggage checking improved. Really well done. The best I have ever seen it. Once they figure out arrivals it will be an amazing experience. Amazing Thailand. It takes time but once it’s done its world class 😁👏 -

Looks like a 7/xx t-shirt promotion 😁. Some people are really smart - no matter what age - was he on a flight to Texas ? -
Frenchman arrested in Krabi for eight-year visa overstay
Cadan replied to snoop1130's topic in Krabi News
Sorry but I have no sympathy for people overstaying. There is always a way in Thailand. Been here for 15 years with annual visa at immigration, agents, time and cost involved. Hope they can find more as it punishes all the right doers. Social system in France will be happy to have a new chap on their list. -

Cadan replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
4.5 billion $ will stimulate the economy by about 0.6-0.7% - just take some money from the import duty pot averaged at 20% / 58 billion US$. Smart move to keep the people happy -

Cadan replied to jayo278's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
500 baht overstay per day max. 20,000 baht what I remember. I would not expect any exceptions even it’s Songkran. -
Foreigner's Shocking Behavior On Soi 4 Sparks Outrage in Bangkok [videos]
Cadan replied to george's topic in Bangkok News
Happens anywhere in the world… drunk, mushroom hallucinations, overweight, heat stroke, mental issues +++ Thailand has toilets literally every 10 yards… A fine would be the least and if he lives in Thailand probably revoke his visa… -
Thai ferry fire: Authorities blaze into action saving all aboard (video)
Cadan replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
I am surprised nobody uses a fire extinguisher… fire gets bigger by the minute and everyone watching calmly… standard procedure? Jump and swim with a life west on and always carry a waterproof bag for the cash and mobile -
Thai doctor in Swiss expat case says she has ‘stress’
Cadan replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
Section 295.Whoever, causes injury to the other person in body or mind is said to commit bodily harm, and shall be punished with imprisonment not exceeding two years or fined not exceeding four thousand Baht, or both... I’ll go for the 4000 baht 😁 -
Swiss national opts for jail after assaulting Thai woman in mall
Cadan replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Why are people getting more aggressive these days ? Nothing else to do ? Life is so boring to get others involved ? If you don’t appreciate the life and people in Thailand it’s time to go back. Revoke visa and blacklist person non grata. As a man hitting a women its the lowest of lowest scumbag. Maybe some mental issues… keep him away from society -

Thailand sees tourism growth skyrocketing to three trillion baht in 2023
Cadan replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Thais and translation to numbers makes me always laugh - really confusing with the zeros. Trillions, billions and millions of BAHT. We have 15 million tourist now and bla bla next year trillions. Jumping ahead of the gun. Here is what we like to hear: Projections where 25 million so we are well on track to reach / surpass that number with estimated generation of X baht to the economy and Y % of the total GDP. In 2023 we expect over x number tourists. Average spending per tourist and top 10 countries visiting. Just write facts and not half story of 2 years with bits and pieces. We all know Thailand has its own dynamic and one of the best places to visit. More people will come to visit.
