that's not xenophobia, you're just paranoid. -
Here's someone playing pigeon chess- hilariously like all pigeons they are totally unaware of this.

you realise that comment has no meaning apart from telling us all what we need to know about you?

Mass Arrests Follow Violent Far-Right Demonstrations Across the UK
kwilco replied to Social Media's topic in World News
This is the UK’s Kristallnacht….. Mobs of Hitler Youth attacked Jews in their homes Jewish homes, hospitals, and schools were ransacked, and businesses were destroyed and often looted. The violence did not end until the afternoon of November 10, but riots continued in some places for several days. It was a campaign against Jews carried out by the Nazi paramilitary forces along with some participation from the Hitler Youth German civilians throughout Nazi Germany on 9–10 November 1938. The euphemistic name Kristallnacht comes from the shards of broken glass that littered the streets after the windows of Jewish-owned stores, buildings, and synagogues were smashed. (See the parallel?) The pretext for the attacks was the assassination of a German diplomat by Herschel Grynszpan, a 17 YEAR OLD German-born Polish Jew living in Paris Any bells ringing now? Just take out the word “Jew” and put in “Muslim”…. Jewish homes, hospitals and schools were ransacked as attackers demolished buildings with sledgehammers. Rioters destroyed synagogues throughout Germany, Austria, and the Sudetenland Over 7,000 Jewish businesses were damaged or destroyed. The authorities and people did nothing. In the UK the authorities are timid but the “anti-protestors have shown up in numbers totally dwarfing the far right gangs. -
Move Forward Party dissolved, leaders banned for 10 years - video
kwilco replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
so that's how democracy works? -
I'm not making any claim - in the video K Naruvhai says rthe for example if you cross into Vientiane you can return as many times as you like so long as you return the next day or later - there are no limits.How do you interpret this? have you watched the video? on multiple entries on 60 day visa exempt. Look at the q&A at 9.27 on the video. then Q2 at 11.59 to 12.57 multiple entry at Vientiane.After that they discuss proof of finance etc which remains the same - POOT can be by "air by land" - POOT can be "booked on the spot."

I'm quoting your post - You miss my point - form the OP I have being trying to point out that although the information is not available people are trying to see things in black and white, which is not the situation with any rules or regulations put forward by any Thai administration. I firmly believe that the full implementation of the new regs will not be fully understood for some time, yet again people are trying to make definitive answers when they are simply not in a position to do so - the embassy statement is an example of this.

Is WP Required for Volunteering?
kwilco replied to audaciousnomad's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I can't find where this is said - how about volunteer teaching?So you can do this on visa exempt or tourist visa? -
Nothing foreign about the Thai embassy anywhere -it's Thai. Maestro Global Moderator 33.5k Gender:Male Location:Confœderatio Helvetica Posted 10 hours ago On 8/5/2024 at 9:52 AM, Chivas said: ...Time will tell whether the Embassies have updated completely wrongly these last 3 weeks or not... I believe it is not "the Embassies", in plural, but only the embassy in London that still has that incorrect information on its website.

Yes- on the Thai UK embassy site for several years. People love to see Thai immigration rules in black and white - yet they don't seem to grasp how inconsistent these rules can be and how apparently various clerks and officers can make up their own interpretation on them - this then invokes the problems of Kraeng Jai that obfuscates the situation even further. It's also a factor thet not many people flew in and out of Thailand 6 times in a year (or was that 6 months?) on visa exempt.

Tes I have but I guess you haven't been anywhere else No, dogs are not banned from most US National Parks, but there are restrictions in place to protect wildlife and the environment: Leashes: Dogs must be on a leash no longer than six feet at all times. Waste: Owners must pick up and dispose of their dog's waste. Areas: Dogs are usually not allowed on trails or in wilderness areas. Some parks, like Yellowstone and Yosemite, limit dogs to paved roads and developed campgrounds. Other parks, like White Sands in New Mexico, allow dogs in more areas. B.A.R.K. Ranger Program: The National Park Service recommends following the B.A.R.K. Ranger principles, which include respecting wildlife, knowing where you can go, and looking for events that allow dogs

If you like camping on a beach, try Khao Laem Ya–Mu Ko Samet National Park Campground. You may or may not be charged - it's right on the beach >Beware at week-ends and pubic holidays it's rammed but at other times empty. the beach overlooks Koh Samet. Quite a lot of the beach has hard core flattned surfaces for camping - and of course shade. Don't confuse it with the "Khao Laem" they are talking about near Kanchanaburi. They seem to have the wrong photo there too.. That Khao Laem NP (kanchanaburi) is one of the nicest campsites to stay with leveled platforms if you have your own gear and you can drop your kayaks in easily enough. There are some cabins there but I'm not sure how to book them.

I have already said that the officer in front of you has final say - however this is a majot change in Visa exempt and DTV etc etc - it is unlikely that immigration will without notice revert back to the old 30 day system and restrictions. For instance there are no changes to retirement and marriage rules - this is not down tpo immigration in the first place the policies are set by the government. I have said from the start that these laws tend to be poorly introduced (v the marijuana laws/wildlife/road traffic etc - it remain to be seen what migration will make of them after a few months - but K.Nurachai claims these laws have been months/years in thw making and are part of the long-term review and reform of how people get into THailand. THy also say they are the first "short-term" changes (permanent in nature) to be followed by changes in the near mid and long-term future. I doubt if anything is cut and dried as it never is in Thailand, but as laid out at present, the is no reason that someone couldn't stay long-term in Thailand so long as they are a tourist and can afford it.

Yes but you haven't introduced anything to the contrary. In the OP if was hoping people could come up with some reliable evidence. i've just listened to a Spotify podcast with the deputy director-general of the Department of Consular Affairs at Thailand's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Naruchai Ninnad - who has said that immigration has no limitation on the number of times you can return overland on 60 visa exempt (with 30 day extension) so long as you return at least one day later. Imigration Laws are decided by The immigration Commission which consists of the Under Secretary of the Minister of Interior as Chairman and the following members: Under Secretary of Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Director general, Police Department. Director General, labor Department.

of course if you are outside of an NP then the matter is different - they just have to get along with the local mutts.
