I don't understand the majority of posts hostile to Thaksin.

I probably know less about Thaksin than all of you and I don't like Pheu Thai's attitude towards Move Forward (I support Pita), but Thaksin was elected and then tried under the Prayut dictatorship, by a justice system under that dictatorship, and Prayut is free.

Find the error!

Prayut should be in prison for life and Thaksin free.

Hello,

Due to covid-19 pandemic, I lost my previous extension of stay in 2021 (I was not in Thailand) and started all the process from scratch at the end of last year when I  cam back : Entry on visa exemption, then Non-O Visa based on retirement, then extension of stay.

I did only one 90 days notification (at Chaengwattana) because I left Thailand before the 2nd one date. I read that the 2nd notification can be done online.

When I come back this year, will the 90 days notification after my arrival be considered as the 2nd one (which can be done online), or will the fact that I left after the 1st one make  this notification as the "new" 1st one (which has to be done at Chaengwattana) ?

Thanks

Will admit that I tend to wear more formal attire (long pants/trousers and polo shirt) when I visit Immigration

There are well cut branded bermudas shorts too. With a polo or long-sleeved linen shirt

Mr Thaksin has always said the outstanding sentences, over charges of corruption and abuse of power, were politically motivated.

Whatever one may think of Thaksin, how impartial can a judgment given under a military regime that overthrew him be?

Should the Thai government be shut down because of corruption?

Minister Chaiwut Thanakamanusorn should have come with a solution while he was in power.

What about coup makers ?

A constitutional referendum was held in Thailand on 7 August 2016.

The charter offered only semi-democracy and was seen to tighten military rule in Thailand.

However, it was approved by 61% of voters with a 59% turnout.

“More of the same” is insured now.

This is what happens when you don’t pay attention

But no real  election campaign under military rule

And a senate nominated byt the army. Is it democracy ?

Dictatorship goes on

Do you know he increased visa fees from 500 to 1900 baht.

Still very cheap!
Strange to make a political opinion just about that!

An elected politician tried in court under a dictatorship but the dictator remains free

He has an under consideration period.

His stamp will be issued when he returns on indicated date. 

It was the same for me and it made me not worry.
Due to the covid-19 period, I lost my previous extension which expired while I was in France.
I asked for a new Non-O Visa on 2022 november 10th and they gave me a paper stating, in english, that my visa would be ready on november 28th.

That visa, ready on 28th, started from November 14th.

Shame on this guy!

Where can  we see the video?

But Prayut, who made a coup, faces nothing ?

last night CNN with Amanpour had an interesting interview with Pita, he did say some interesting things worth of listening

Where can we read that interview? Any link ?

Was his own "transition of  power " peaceful in 2014 ?

Who nominated the judges of this "supreme court"?

We had several countries where the president said he would not make a specific person to the prime minister even if his party wins.

Often that is when a right wing party is about to win in Europe or a party that says that they want to make a referendum about leaving the European Union.

No democracy allows the army to appoint senators

they all expire soon, but can't remember when...1 or 2 years

Will it change something ?They will be again appointed by the army, won't they  ?

A legally elected prime minister is a fugitive

And a dictator is legal

Thai justice is on dictators's side

I always have problems with Bangkok Bank app when scanning a QR Code everyday between 23:00 and 01:00
