  1. London is one of the worst racism city . I lived in London for 8 yrs. I had so many bad experience there. I think because I am a skinny , small Chinese., I am always the target . Almost at least once a week.  Not even the people in London, but also immigration at Dover . I came back from France , when I arrived at Dover immigration, I gave my passport to the female officer, she threw my passport on the floor and told me to leave because she could not see my visa in the passport, I told her I had student visa , she said " get your passport up and show me " She was rude. Everybody behind me was shocked .   Once I went to Victoria station  to get the train to Croydon, as I was in rush so I asked few people who worked at the station, i knew they were staffs because they had the uniform so I asked them which was the perform to get train to Croydon. My God ! everyone of them swore at me and one called me " Foreign Baster , <deleted> Off"  After these incident I decided to leave UK and would not back to Uk anymore.

  2. the school won,t get fine, so if they don,t want to pay the teacher, the school will tell the immigration dept, the teacher will be caught and then the school has no need to pay. My friend from USA had this problem few yrs ago.  It is good to catch all those so called teacher, they don,t know how to teach anyway. Thailand is like that, if you are farang, do not look like oriental,you can be English teach even you don,t know how to teach at all

  3. it is so confusing , I went to the Chiangmai immigration to ask about it, I opened my passport to show the officer my retirement visa and asked the male officer if my visa is 0-A and do I need insurance ? He did not look at my visa and said yes it is O-A and you need insurance. So Bad

  4. I had the almost experience in Chiangmai, I was crossing the Zebra cross, the motor cycle almsot ran me down, I managed to chase the rider and told him he was wrong and almsot killed me, his answer was that he had done nothing wrong and what was the problem. You see they did not want to stop or they dont even know they should stop.

    That is the Government's fault. No road education and no police to enforce the law

     

  5. only yesterday I went to Chiangmai immigration office to ask about the TM30 report. I said I am living in Chiangmai , if I go to Chiangrai , when I come back , do I need to report to the immigration? The officer said yes if the hotel does not report for you.  That is a strange answer, if the hotel does not report and I don,t also , who knows where I have been. There will be no record to tell anybody I was not at home. So what is the TM30 report for ?????????????

     

  6. it is Thailand Government fault,they don,t control the quality of the teacher, they don,t check school. Many school want to employ those people who are foreigners , it doesn,t matter those foreigners know how to teach at all. One of my friend who taught in Chiangmai for few months does not know how to teach , he could not answer any question from students. On the other hand I had a friend from England, English born Chinese, having a certificate for teaching English but could not find a job here , the schools told him because he is Chinese , they only wanted to employ farang looking teachers

  7. it is normal in Thailand. Long time ago I went to Bangkok with two elderly friend, one was handicapped , we traveled with a Taxi from Siam back to Sathorn . Arrived to the Hotel, the taxi driver shout at me and asked me to pay 100 bahts more than the meter price. He was very angry and shout loudly, my friends were very scared. I did not want to make my friends suffer as they were over 75. So I paid.  I hated that incident , my friends were so scared, They did  not want to go out anymore . Next day they left Thailand earlier and cancelled all their trip in Thailand.

  8. come on !!!!! in USA , Europe, Australia.....etc even you have money you can not retire there. Thailand is so nice to let us stay with only little money, Foreigners here do not know their own country immigration law . They are much much tougher than Thailand.  Tell me where you can go if you leave Thailand ? Go back to your own country ? The living standard will be a lot higher than here.
