Twitter just links to an email which links to nothing. Again you are assuming that the criminal-to-be is on an extension and has a bank account. Many can get by just using an ATM linked to their home account.

Personally, I'm not gonna ever give any false information but I'll be cautious as to what information I provide as one of these days I might decide to become a criminal.

Public profiling..... this is non of their business.... Immigration concentrates only on the validity of documents, background checks with those documents with the authorities back home, who have the competency to answer any question related to the person. They have no need for social information, with whom one associates, hangs out or plans to go. In Germany a country that knows much about this profiling and abusing...under nazism and also the STASI in the Eastern block. People are not obliged to give their ID or copies of it to people who have nothing to do with the law. Even Banks will not disclose any information of a person unless parties have agreed with each other. Prying into personal life is not vouched for every tom dick and harry, who is looking to find a reason to make a case.

Foreigners recognise your rights you are only obliged to give details of where you are staying and how long you have stamped on your travel document. The rest is not anyones business. They cannot control their own lot...let alone follow up on the local crimes, they are thinking of international.....Good luck

Foreigners seem to forget who they are in Thailand. They are "FOREIGNERS" and not THAI. If one wants to be a a country other than your own,

comply with the Laws and Regulations of that Country or leave and go back home !

Inconsiderate and totally selfish to his family. Made a fool of everyone looking for him and a bigger IDIOT of himself and his attitude towards responsibility and others, including Thai Authorities,Police wanting to assist , expats wanting to assist, his Embassy, his family. Bet his airticket return is now useless or he will have to pay in a packet to ugrade or a totally new ONE WAY Airticket back home!! This Person will most likely become an "Overstay" ,Big possibility of that happening. Very wrong way to build a good reputation as a sensible and trusted Tourist in Thailand. He has put himself into the RADAR of Immigration and the Police forever with his Name, Identity Number, Passport Number etc now being in ALL the Systems. Is this Guy mature enough and has he enough sense, to be safe travelling on his own? Does not seem like it.

Well it seems to me you grew up in a totally different environment to hundreds of thousands of us that are Huguenot descendants and of other South Africans. We certainly did not have any in our families that sat and drank Brandy on Sunday afternoons. BUT then we come from an Ancestry that brought the Wines to South Africa and also distilled the finest brandy and our family still do. Gold Medal Winners. So we are used to fine Wines and KWV Superb Brandy and Cognac. Cases full in our homes. There were NO BLACK tribes in 1652 in the Western And Southern Cape. They did not even know it existed or table Mountain . Their Ancestors were migrating from upper Africa and never got further than the Fish river. Also please inform people there are 11 tribes in South africa and they have fought amongst themselves for decades, many many wars between the Zulus, Xhosas etc. ALSO please inform people WHY apartheid was rife in the early years and more Western People could not live, at that stage near Tribal Areas either- they were not welcome also. Culture Clashes were vast. Unless you liked neighbours in that Century that slaughtered cattle in the front yard and drak the blood warm spurting from the necks of the cattle in their rituals. Bull? NO FACTS!.. Times have changed over the 300 years plus and education and development took place. Vastly different now, but apartheid policies should have been dismantled when people became more Westernized. It was very wrong very once People were more Westernized and could live as neighbours without serious Culture Clashes. By the Way, the NGK and Afrikaners did not install the first Apartheid and the pillars it was built on. the BRITISH installed the 1913 Land Act. Just to help you update your History of your Birth Country, GOOGLE the following, www.the Independant.co.uk/.../apartheid-made-in-Britain and www. BBC.co.uk/history/022786616.

By the way we have been visiting Thailand for over 30 years. We spend a lot of time there. We have retirement Visas as well and 2 of my Grandchildren are born in Thailand.

Nigerians again ! No Surprise there. Wherever they go they are involved in Crime of some sort. They are now even unwanted guests in most of the Countries In Africa. !! They just bring trouble with them . They have been responsible for destroying hundreds of thousands of lives with their DRUG Cartels too. Save Thailand from these thugs ! Once they get a foothold, it is just tragedy that will follow. Most of these Criminals are DANGEROUS.!Ask the people of Africa, they will tell you all about these thugs.!

Thousands have been scammed in our Country by Nigerians ! They are 99% involved in Illegal activities in any Country they are permitted entry into..Never mind the Drug Lords ! IMMIGRATION should take note.!

You friend will need a return ticket, the letter from the Employer in Thailand and Proof of his Qualifications, a Completed Visa Application form and Photo etc. Unless he can actually provide his ACTUAL Work Permit from the Thai Authorities presented here to the Thai Embassy during application for his Visa , he will have to have a return airticket and proof he can support himself in Thailand for the duration of the Visa.. Without the valid Visa, the Airline will also not BOARD him/her on a way one Ticket.

I suggest he/she contacts the Embassy before application by E Mail advising them of all the details. BUT A return ticket is necessary. I would also ensure that the Passport is still valid for a few years, take along record/letter of Previous employer, Proof of address/family in South Africa and Bank Statements showing sufficient funds for own support as there is not confirmed fully paid Accommodation Vouchers to present when applying for the Visa.. Getting a job offer and only a letter is not the same as having a Legal Work Permit.Also a job offer at a Restaurant will not be considered in the same light as a OFFICIAL job CONFIRMATION offer from a Reputable Hotel Chain such as Hyatt/Sheraton, Dusit Thani Group in Thailand. RESTAURANTS close down all the time. The embassy will also check the Restaurant via Authorities in Bangkok. Unfortunately, there has been abuse by Visa Applicants from various Countries having just Letters from some contact in Thailand to get

Visas for long stay and the job does not pan out and NO Work Permit guaranteed. Thai Authorities are wise to this and job offers are very thoroughly investigated. Hope this helps.
