Forced to book a hotel on the spot
ChaiyaTH replied to Saigon's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
You should ask what I am reading and how to get educated. Else you just get more and more shocking things that control you instead of you using it to enrich your own life. It's no different with the fact that one can earn money remotely on demand today while this used to cost 40 years career in sacrifice upfront before even considering. In a decade most people with many types of cancer get cured who still die from it daily today as well. Many things in that way are like 'magic' including simple things like AI and it's capabilities so far already. Okay okay, you win, sativa indica hybrid. Weed works for me tho, since i signed up here all my predictions were correct. From economy to visa policy to covid to bitcoin to exchange rates, russia, trump and more. I have a crystal ball. -

I guess you missed the point entirely, this is based on what you emit in protons / energy yourself, it is like frequencies. This is what people often refer to as magic or ghosts because we not have enough explanations for it yet even we are very close. It is the same that you simply know someone stares at you, in your back. A lot of these things we are just born with but we lose them in the modern life. But many things we also simply not use or develop as skills anymore since maybe centuries, maybe we simply never did, maybe in another time of life thousands years ago. Who knows but it is all science. -

In most places it is even a rule to be shaved etc. I mean you could get away with being dressed as a real tourist if your stamps match it but otherwise... I think people confuse what this means in general anyway, you can just wear sneakers with shorts and a t-shirt, as long it is looking fresh and clean. If you arrive like you just partied until 5AM and stay at the cheapest places, not seem the freshest, have <deleted>ty clothes on + let's say overweight on top of that or a white ghost face, and then you claim you are financially good and live here, well, I would want to know more lol. They always say you need a visa but that is just because Thais are non confrontational, they actually likely mean they think you are talking BS. I can testify to this myself with 14-15 years visa run history, each time I had issues, I actually had issues in my life myself. From those years and experiences it is even a miracle I got away with it most times. Exception on the rule: female IO with period. -

Is never a issue to work online since years. Let alone since the DTV now, it is like even desired. We younger online workers are like what all the oldies now want here more + tourists in general. It's the old guys / sex scene that is targeted as well as gangster types or simply brokies. Seems they were schooled around covid because even the old aunties on islands in the south knew about 'digital nomads now ok' at that time. Was about time though, there has been lobby for it since 15 years already. For some reason it is mainly the old foreigners here, that somehow seem to think that is not allowed. I think this came more from jealousy than anything else, they just hoped it would be like that. -

I think they just really do their job to be honest, where most Thai male IO's are also often at least 10 years older already, it's just a different generation as well the male know perfectly well what the history and reason is foreign males like to be here. I could see the females dislike this in general. However it is 100% a fact that you should always try to get a male IO queue, I notice it each time even at suva airport too. Male is 15 seconds, female is 30-60 seconds + potential questions. However with the right answers, these female IO are no issue at all too. Some even like to flirt. Thais in general are very very talented, maybe one of the few things they are good at, is to know exactly when you are happy or angry, broke or not broke, have something to hide or not etc etc. They still have well developed senses that are close to nature. If you would arrive with them in such condition (stressed, afraid, broke in reality) you are 0-1 behind already unless lucky. When in Rome do as the Romans: be clean, don't smell, make short proper eye contact but otherwise watch mainly to the floor. Don't be arrogant. Don't be inpatient etc. So for example: things are delayed again or it is busy, instead of looking angry and annoyed, you just sit down and play a game on your phone like all Thais do. -

Never seen anyone in 14 years that needed to show actual cash, if it already came to that even a bank balance was sufficient. The classical doubt cases always get the same: flight ticket / hotel or just the hotel at least. Not that strange to ask in the first place if someone stays since years but somehow not rents a place too. Like it becomes a bit a doubtful case if someone says to live here or renew a passport here, while also having years of history, to then not have lease or permanent address + says to have vague plans. In a way the Thai IO's are very nice, I think most countries would ask more from such people. I had a few times the question where I was going, I always say I go home to here on X address. It seems they are very aware of that since these new systems of the last years, and then it is always right away fine. I assume they can see this recent or historic TM30 check-ins anyway too, that would also tell a lot of one always stays a cheap places, but i doubt it goes that far. Be happy I not work at immigration, I would make an AI algo that filters out all of those people lol. -

Yes as well as semi to really full passports. I know a handful of newbies that are here now 1-3 years total, all have clean passports, leave for 3-5 days every 60-90 days, come back after and except for the question 'you come back again?' with answers like: yeah i work online, never a single issue. Each time I do see people with issue they actually look wasted, broke, both, or worse. As well they then are a bit older already + have semi full passports. Thais can smell if you are broke or not, even you hide it with brand clothes. -

So just a random comment of a random IO with a person who most likely has a really full passport and then did a dodgy border run. With other words; nothing new here, move along. Reports like this are pathetic and nothing but fake news, specially on the low frequency this site is still used. The IO was even nice, not demanding a flight ticket but only a hotel booking in Bangkok. She did not believe him and this was the minimum she wanted. -
Visit to tax office, Koh Samui,(today)
ChaiyaTH replied to CFCol's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Once again a misleading and inaccurate detailled post of someone their fk'ed up decision to go there and do it wrong... So now people think they found the truth or reality or solution, by just filing randomly taxes, at random locations in Thailand, with random employees saying Yes or No. This changes like zero to the reality, in case of enforcement, checks, audits etc. It also tells others zero about what is now really going on. -

The dude it clueless, too many senile dinosaurs on this website. Same as those claiming to live here 1-2-3 decades while all they did was sitting at home, a new person going out daily and travelling around would know more.- 92 replies

Guesthouse in downtown Hua hin for a Family 1000 baht/night range
ChaiyaTH replied to rocket2's topic in Hua Hin and Cha-Am
You think people can't find airbnb places on the website themself? Then secondly you mention something of a year ago that was airbnb priced, have you even checked their current rates? Pretty sure it is more by now and/or fully booked otherwise. You talk about just 1 place / unit. This is how so many conflicting as well as fantasy stories exist surrounding living in Thailand and the real costs as well. -
In Case You Missed it, the Tattoo Fad is Over
ChaiyaTH replied to Walker88's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Not sure what this nonsense is about again but facts are there is more people than ever having and getting a tattoo to the point its at least 50/50 to hear Yes. P.S. If you want people to actually read a few sentences of your crap, maybe reduce the length and apply spacing. The length of these nonsense posts are so much smelling like desperate employees or benefitors of this site are trying to get the last little traffic and platform activity. It will die anyway.- 92 replies
