Thalueng

You cannot compare Thailand with Western countries for many reasons. When a country is not well developed, most people are poor, most jobs are simple, and education is basic or poor too, then most people have problems which makes them ignore "lesser" things like safety, environmental protection, and yes any kind of laws. For many a motorcycle is the only affordable family vehicle, and renting a taxi with seat belts simply out of question. Not unique to Thailand, and as long as the standard of living (for the poor people) does not improve these things will not and cannot change.

You should teach them how to do it. Of course for this you first need to learn how to speak, read, write, and think Thai. After that you probably cannot find the problem anymore.

This has been asked and answered several times in this forum. If you live in Hua Hin please note that the immigration office here requires you to do 90 days reporting no matter if and when you leave and return to the country (implemented when the TM6 arrival form was abolished). However, I don't report online as the IO is a few minutes from my house, but I can confirm this based on clear instructions received just a few days ago.

Misspelled names unfortunately are a big issue here, for several reasons. There are names different by just one letter, first or family names, problems with fake identities, etc. 1500 is a really small price to resolve your issue.
