I think you should look in the mirror and ask yourself how you could have possibly ever supported a very obvious evil terrorist group.

Malaysia, Japan and Hong Kong no stamps. What are you on about?? You're wrong. Japan is about 4,000km away from Thailand. I don't think you understand the meaning of nearby. And last time I was there about a year ago they still stamped. Hong Kong is a bit closer, but still 3 countries away from Thailand. I wouldn't call that nearby either. I just entered Malaysia 5 days ago and got a stamp..... They stamp at all land borders and all airports except KL.

The malls and tourist areas decorate for Christmas because it makes them more money. They aren't doing it because they are gracious.

I wonder how many Thais riding motorbikes on the wrong side of the road going in the wrong direction passed by while they were collecting a bribe from this poor guy.

Not including rent or accomodation cost, it is quite possible to live on 20,000 baht per month. If you don't drink or have an expensive hobby, you wouldn't even need to budget or try very hard to do it.

Interesting. I'm in Malaysia now. Entered at Penang and got a stamp. No autogates for foreigners there. Maybe it depends on the arrival airport.

It's very, very common for people to apply for visas in countries nearby Thailand. All the nearby countries except Singapore stamp.

So they couldn't find the intruding aircraft. Doesn't really give me confidence in their competence.

Obviously, that will not occur thus your post is possibly ignorant but most assuredly stupid. It's certainly not ignorant. The comment brought back memories of India to me. Police throughout India actually carry sticks and routinely wack misbehaving people with them.

If you lose your passport, most embassies won't issue a new passport or travel document without a police report.

Since your Thai license is in English, you don't need an IDP in almost every country that uses the roman alphabet. You only need an IDP in a few countries. Mainly those with different alphabets such as Japan, South Korea, Taiwan.......

Says the vegan Nope, I eat meat. I'm just not a hypocrite. I don't think I'm morally superior to the Japanese just because I only eat farm animals.

Report the passport as lost to the police in Mae Sot. Bring that report with him when he travels. Try to make an appointment with the Malaysian embassy to get the passport replaced. Print the appointment and bring it with him. Print and bring anything you can find about replacing a lost Malaysian passport. Those and and a little luck should get him past any check point.

None of us needs to eat any animals. We can get plenty of protein from plants.

He needs to: Get a passport Buy a ticket to his home country Bring 20,000 baht cash to the airport when he departs to pay his overstay fine. There will be no detention if he does that. If he really can't scrape together that much cash, he needs to contact his embassy and ask if they can help get him home. Some countries will provide emergency loans for repatriation. There is no reason to surrender.
