  1. Don't know how many times I hear from my Thai friends and workers that when they need the police they call 2-3 different police stations hoping someone will show up.
  2. umm...he didn't run, he was in New York for a UN meeting when the military preformed a coup. I'm not a big fan of the guy, but no need to make false claims. I do admit that when he was PM things were good, our business was booming. He did some good things for the people too, but he's corrupt just like the rest of the them.
  3. What are you talking about??? IDC to pay a 90 day late reporting fee?? 20 years ago immigration could care less if you overstayed, especially 1 day, maybe a fee , no IDC time or bans. Back in the 90's I came to Thailand regularly for work and always had delays. Never had an issue overstaying 1-2 days, IO would laugh about it. as for overstaying they didn't really get serious on that until about 10-15 years ago.
  4. I dont think that's correct.... The Philippines nor Vietnam are getting along with China.
  5. Wait I'm confused..so was your partner exhausted from all the work from the election or all the work from the erection??
  6. yeah......That wont last long when everyone is being handed cash to vote.
  7. What your failing to understand is they dont care what the people want or need, they only care about keeping power. Why do you keep bringing up hope that their families are abused. Do you believe a child should suffer due to the actions of his father?
  8. A Thai still needs to own 51% of the company....
  9. Yes, Alcohol is completely banned in Saudi Arabia. If caught with alcohol as a foreign national (If a Saudi citizen you could get away with it) you could get lashes, a prison sentence or possibly deported, but not executed.
  10. Come on, you know this is Thailand and a great education doesn't mean anything if you dont have the contacts and / or the money to pay for a good job!!
  11. not a problem....until it's a problem you might never get caught, but you never know. if you run into an officer in a bad mood??.. things could change.
  12. yes, gone are the days that Thai IO would tell you to just over stay, that it's no big deal.
  13. I guess you forgot that Taksin is the one that started the crack down on boarder runs and changed the fines on overstaying. It went from an IO joking and laughing about an overstay to it being a big issue. I do agree he did some good things, started the 30B medical program, finally got the new airport completed and the economy was humming along.
  14. ok...I got it, I see where you draw the line. you wont touch a whore, but you'll have a relationship with a slut.
  15. Sorry, I cant post a rule and not going to spend hours looking. It might not a be a written rule like allot of things in Thailand, but the officers at land boarders always want to see the exit stamp from the other crossing and would never accept it being in a different passport. My old business partner had two passports and tried this in the past and was never allowed, even if we spent a few days in Cambodia it didn't make a difference. They want to see the exit stamp in the passport and will only use the passport with the exit stamp.
  16. We are talking about changing passports at a land border.
  17. Yes, I saw that. As stated, the rules state this cant be done, but as always in Thailand corrupt officials are always ready to bend the rules with a little incentive.
  18. but he needs to exit on then EU passport or he will be on overstay. Not possible to change at land boarders as they want to see exit stamp.
  19. You cant change passports at a land crossing. He will need to fly out and back.
  20. When staying in BKK I never had issues. However, in Surin it was hit or miss if mail would make it.
  21. Best answer would be to speak to your doctor!!!
  22. opening (starting) a recruitment agency would mean you have a Thai company therefore employees in Thailand. Prior to moving to Thailand I came to Thailand on a regular basis and our company was only required to get me a B visa for meetings, a work permit was not required for business meetings.
