I was hauled to a back office in Swampy and questioned by 3 immigration officers because of multiple visa exempt entries. They asked if I had a Thai wife. I said no a Thai wife would take all my money….they just laughed and said go on … you’re ok .
Inviting trouble isn't a great idea. Whoever posted this should expect to be set upon and burdened with multiple difficulties . So sayeth the soothsayers.
Maybe they are trying to discourage foreigners from moving to Thailand to ensure long lasting sanity .... for the Farangs that is.....very kind of them .
I sometimes waste time just watching the intersection of Soi Buakhao and Diana and Lengkee for the chaos and near misses and sheer lack of safety that goes on all day. In fact crossing the Soi is dangerous in lots of places.
Do they do this to extract fine..aka , a bribe , tea money, whatever ? Do they realise that the tourist numbers would be decimated if there was “really” no prostitution in Thailand.
50 meters from the rank at swampy the guy asked for 800 to Silom … I said stop the car get my bag and I’m going back to the rank to report you. How much you pay …I said no …get my bag . And he said meter meter …390 it was and no tip .
