I just dont get it Lie after lie after Lie about tourism Who should you believe? I guess don't believer any of them They all lie.

They need to smell the coffee and then take real steps to improve the situation. Lifting Martial law is the first step. The second step is

hire someone with western experience to head up TAT with an Asian along side. This will work but then they don't do what works.

Stop worrying about saving face and do something

NO no no.... Martial Law is a tourist attraction i clearly remember TAT saying it yesterday .......

Maybe the TAT can sell this to the Thais but the international community will just laugh about it .

What are they smoking

It says \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

Hope this helps

You may have missed it but the new rules call for arrest if you are on overstay. The new government has no tolerance for anyone who violates the visa rules.

But what is even more chilling is that once you have been arrested then you need to get a lawyer for it and it can take up to 6 months to go to court. And from what I have been told they are not giving bail for this anymore so you will have to sit in a nasty jail cell for the time till you go to court..

And in jail here in Thailand there is no medical.

Just pulling your leg Give you a bit of adrenaline. Its fine just go to immigration they will give you a 7 day extension for1900. This is no bit deal

Have a safe flight back home

Of all the hair brained ideas Promoting Marshal Law for Tourists That is the reason they are staying away. Read the English dictionary as to what it means

I cannot believer they are doing this Great Idea Guys

You should start with the level of reporting and teach your reporters to finish a story. I worked for ABC for a number of years and all stories must have a beginning middle and end.

So many stories here are missing one component or more and are disjointed. They will start with the middle and next have the end and then the beginning

How can someone have faith in a news organization that have so called journalists that do not even rise to the challenge

Why am I not surprised

In a nutshell the whole thing is a Lie and you should stop.

Playing with someones feelings are a dangerous game

Hey I have PINK EYE does that mean I am an albino I thought I was Caucasian

Of course then retracted their statement Did you expect anything else once a lawyer got into the picture

As I have said on many posts Thai police= Key Stone Cops

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystone_Cops

That should clear it up

I really don't get it They say " they may be feeling guilty of the murder so they are stressed out. This is a stupid uneducated remark

They are stressed out because they are in prison facing murder charges and face the death penalty. This would stress out anyone

I just do not understand why Thais make such uneducated ludicrous remarks.

This is really easy Call the old owner Tell her you made a mistake and paid her the rent instead of the new owner. Tell her you are pissed and then tell ask her to give you the funds back. She will obviously say no She was scamming you So then say OK

No problem In the meantime I will let the tax department know you have been getting this money and Tell her you hope she declared i

She did not

She will then relent and give you the money

Done

I had one taxi driver play dumb and pretend not to know where the MRT is So I said OK take me to the BTS in Thai

Then Low and behold I ended up at the MRT

What a scum bag He did not want to go Too bad This is the job If you dont like it get another job

Good for what. Should have put more pressure on the Thia government to level the Visa playing field. A Thai can emigrate to the USA and has all the benefits of an American Citizen except the right to vote.

But if you have a Thai visa you are not equal Many inequalities .

Example If you are a foreight student in the USA you can get part time work Not in Thailand

My Girlfriend obtained a visa to the USA for and had no problem Stable job money in the bank

Your not going to have a problem

Either get used to it or send her to a nuns school

Sunday at mbk they refused to pick up people unless they pay a flat rate. They wanted 200 baht for a trip that cost me 68 baht. To hell given them a raise. It seems to be getting worst and worst. Even when they get a pay rate they will continue doing the same crap.

Next time get their taxi driver number and report them They will be fined for it

Get used to Eating Ramon

Here it is in a nutshell. If you continue to pay police the small wage they get then there will be petty corruption among them Pay them a decent wage they they want to protect and keep and they will forgo the tea money

This is a no brainer

When I was going through a divorce My ex wife threatened me with the Police For what I did nothing

We settled I divorced She had bi polar problems and the doctor prescribed her meds When she was on them she was very lovable When not she was the she devil.

She would not stay on them so I dumped here

Its simple put up with some short term pain and your done

Nice story but you left out that he was arrested which is key to this story and whether he was actually a parking attendant working for the company or a beggar Poor reporting

This is long overdue and a giant leap for Thais in general. My hats off to the General for making this decision.

This is without a doubt moving in the right direction

One day overstay is no big deal I did the same think one time and they just smiled and said SORRY you have to pay 500 baht. He was really nice about it and joked and then had me translate a few words for him he was not sure of Very nice immigration officer . Then I went and got a non o visa without a problem

So overstay one day is nothing Don't worry just pay it

Just because you develop an antibody does not mean it will work or not work in Humans It must go through trials

This is grandstanding at best
