Do you do immigration business yourself? If so why?
To save paying people for nothing. Also for me it's a day out because my provinces IO is 90kms away and I can do some shopping eat in a restaurant at Robinson's. The time spent going is immaterial to my lifestyle.

Ambulance blocked by pickup truck in Pattaya sparks social backlash
The Muppet driving the pickup was probably a lowlife thinking that no one is allowed to jump in front of me. Let's hope if he is ever in one another ignoramus blocks his path to hospital or medical care.
