Sickening treachery by Phua Thai, laughing in the face of Thai voters

House by the pond is pet friendly, several reviews on trip advisor complaining about dogs barking, and even roosters!

Sitting on a Thai train is purgatory, you are in heaven when you can get off the damn thing, eventually.

The prices have gone up a lot, stayed there a couple of times, not now

Well done, add pedo's to the list as well

Was she following somebody holding a flag?

Teen sensation again, typical concert, sanuk mark!

It's Phua Thai who should be doing the apologies, backstabbing traitors!

In reality they probably would not be- the compensation cash would soon run out and that would be that. Same happened with the govt compensation scheme for bust insurance companies last year, pot ran dry very quickly and no more given out.

Million I think used to be more

You still failed to show I said paying bribes ties you to an agent

My name is not jingthing though is it!, so you are wrong

Quote it then, or admit you were wrong to say so

where did I suggest that?

Phua Thai take back stabbing treachery to a new low ????

Backpacker idiots and other assorted clueless types

They would have to have a fake address in the province you don't live in to process the extension, then you change it every year by lying on a new TM30?

No it's not, it's a choice and a protest against exploiting trendy wokeness for profit, which happily always backfires

No such thing as a visa food chain, you are either paying bribes because you cannot or dont want to meet the requirements, or you are doing things legally.

I would say so, perhaps those paying bribes would like to tell us how that works.

I common hope/fallacy just wait and see!

Common practice for visa agents to bribe officers to issue extensions from a province applicants do not live in, either because they do not have the corrupt contacts where you are, or it's cheaper to get them elsewhere, usually up country offices.

Many have their fingers crossed, the ones who keep saying there is too much (corrupt) money involved and that nothing will change. They said that 20 years ago when they stopped the ghost visa runs, in fact is that not what George of Thai visa was up to in Suk soi 15- agents taking the passports on a visa run while the holders stayed at home? The fact that over 100 immigration officers were arrested this year gives some hope to changing things to a fair and honest system.

All speculation, but whatever they do re the requirements they need to close the loophole allowing officers to take bribes to ignore them, as well as extensions being issued to those from other provinces. If they don't, upping the requirements will just increase the corrupt agents business

Why do you think Thais cannot speak Englsih?
