He's been living on the streets around Nana since April. No money. Overstayed his visa. His medical condition is really bad. All he wants is to go back to Sweden. He used to be a successful chef in Sweden (background checks), but after a work accident in 2008,is life seems to have gone down the drain.

A friend is now helping him (also Swedish). He put him in a hotel, gave him some clean clothes and located his belongings and passport, which a really great Pakistani guy we met last night, had taken care for him. He has also arranged escort at the airport (to follow him all the way on board the plane) once we can get finds to clear his overstay and ticket back home. 40K is needed. If any of you guys want to help, please PM me.

I'm Swedish and your story and PM you about giving money smells. According to himself, the Swedish Embassy and all the othet Swedish papers/internet forums that I have been reading, your story is wrong.

And collecting money for him, yes sure

Nearly everything in your story is wrong.....

Upto to you my friend. We have his passport in our possession, and can see the stamps. We bought the ticket already, and got the money for immigration. We paid the Swedish embassy to escort him all the way (we had to pay them) . We contacted the Swedish "sossen" to pick him up at Arlanda. This with own funds. Especially from my good Swedish friend. You can still contribute, as all this costed around 50K total. He leaves on Wednesday.

This time of year a one-way non-stop ticket Bangkok-Stockholm costs barely 10 000 THB (with Norwegian etc.). Did you buy him business class?

Do they really look at previous stamps to see your immigration history? I thought they registered your national ID in their systems. What is it they are typing if not that?

Anyway, glad to hear.

Thanks!

About the letter that I'm suposed to get from some ministry and bring to the embassy when applying for the ED Visa. Is there any time limit on it? I mean, do I have to leave the country immediately when I get it or can I wait 1-2 months to match my TR Visa expiration?

Great, thanks.

I'm flying in on a triple-entry TR-visa from Stockholm. Should I pick tourist or education on the immigration card? I guess I am a tourist until I have a ED-visa?

I'm looking to enroll on a language school in BKK this fall, learning thai. Is that still possible or will they crack down all non-university education? I'm going to attend classes, so I'm not looking for "ghost schools".
