  1. Ya agree with you 100%, one of these low lives punch out a small framed girl in our area recently, no ramifications as the place he/she works pays, the know who, each month so a waste of time getting any retribution on the assault.
  2. I believe rather than just a blanket vanilla email rejection of 90-day submission reports, these intellectual giants at IMM provide users what a PowerPoint presentation and information criteria of how all these convoluted systems work collectively or individually and how they tie information together (if any do) I know IMM love doing PowerPoint presentations, as we see them regularly displaying them in criminal cases. If we all knew where the bodies are buried (tongue in cheek 555), we would have a greater chance of a successful submission. How does the autopopulate of the form work, where does the data come from, state of the data validity, central database or other IMM repositories How does the IMM country inbound / outbound system, IMM TM30 system, IMM TM47 across the counter system, IMM TM47 online system and the IMM Visa renewal system interact with each other Is there any synchronization between systems. If any systems are connected with each other is the data real-time, batched processed or stale, and manually updated - where, when and how. How are 90-day online submission reports processed, manually - central or distributed, automatically - how What are IMM manual follow-up processes on rejected 90-day online report submissions, how many rejections before a human actually looks at all the associated information related to the rejected submission. How about some statistics on the website: number of submissions, number of successful submissions approved first pass, number of rejections, number of rejections resubmitted and then approved, list of the rejection types and quantities, number of rejections that had to be processed manually at over the counter / mail in or at IMM offices. Nice smiley face widgets of ratings on the Website, but how about adding a comment feedback text field and a file upload feature to complement the rating widget selected. A future nice AI help feature and fallback live chat service on the website would be an excellent help feature to users, it's just IMM staff redeployment, and a bit of technology investment. How about an effective hot line number to help solve rejected submission, even 09:00 to 12:00 and 13:00 to 17:00 would be a great start, with a queue position counter announcement and I know a long stretch, but a leave your phone contact number call back service. An FAQ section on the Website where IMM posts common Q and A's, plus as we are all registered to use the site, a community forum link where users can share their information, experiences, concerns, thoughts and questions. Why does the 90-day online reporting not have soft validation, checks for user input fields, before submission with red underlines or red notation for user input field exceptions Why just a blanket rejection email, why not implement input form field unique rejection error codes for all user input fields. The head of IMM recently announced significant solution upgrades to allow a more user-friendly utilization and to lesser the load of manual processing and waiting and queuing times at IMM offices, REALLY? This stuff is not rocket science, most of it is 101 basic software solution design practices, it requires some governance and qualified technical leadership to make the solution an improved experience for all. I live in hope, but you never know, miracles can happen.
  3. After you enter your passport number and country, just select the little magnifying glass widget, it will pre-populate all the required information fields necessary. No need to enter any additional fields' information.
  4. Non-binary, well we could label them as "quantum dudes".......555
  5. Re: Here are the exam outcomes: - **Thai Language**: 309 students failed, 335 passed. - **Mathematics**: 264 students failed, 379 passed. - **Science**: 505 students failed, 139 passed. - **Social Studies**: 451 students failed, 194 passed. - **English**: 315 students failed, 330 passed. So metrics are everything in a situation like this. Go back and provide the last 4 years of the face to face teaching methods, student pass / fail metrics. Then we can see if the real value of students capabilities versus the two systems.
  6. You see, give them an inch (or in his case 6 inches) and they take a mile. This has always been the tactics of the left. They get you to support a small radical change and then redefine it as the norm. Then they further push the boundaries of it, and if you reject or don't support it...they call you a racist or homo...... something. You see it in every aspect of loony leftist liberal's tactics to change the norms of society and politics.
  7. In my personal experience, I had left the country and retuned in the middle of my 90-day online reporting window, which was yonks ago. When my 90-day online report became due (email reminder from immigration 15 days before due date), I filled out the form with my new entry return date. Rejected, so resubmitted it with my previous old entry return date (that was stored in the 90-day online reporting system)...wham'o....approved. So I have left that old entry return date in my last 6 90-day online reporting submissions successfully. IMHO there is a big information disconnect between the IMM 90-day online reporting system, the over the counter IMM 90-day reporting system, the IMM Visa system and the inbound / outbound IMM information system. The reason the whole thing is such a Clusert_F. PS. And yes, each year when I update my Visa my next following online 90-day report submission gets rejected, until I re-submit it a number of times and some IMM Somchai gets off their lazy backside and goes and checks the Visa database information.....and then updates my 90-day online report visa details in the system.
  8. Enforcing helmet use................ Really You know why they are only enforcing helmet use on foreigners. I know it's a rhetorical question? Most Thais, they would pull over for non helmet use, would not have the big cash reserves that the BIB want for their slush funds.
  9. One important fact missing from your synopses, Thai Immigration is a loss center, the Thai Revenue Department is a profit center, the more taxation funds the TRD secure the bigger they can become as a collection agency for the government, and expand even further and collect more taxation funds. They are like most government taxation collection agencies in the world, they have the most say, the most pull and the most power of business and peoples lives. They can mandate and implement any and all conditions against any individuals, other government and non government department, Immigration, DLT, Banks, Clearing Housings, SET, Financial Institutions and Investment Companies and Provisional Government departments. Remember, the country is currently broke and heading south in most economic portfolios. It's often stated, you can't tax your way out of economic hardship, but outside the TRD the Thai government have no real options to boost their funds to run the country ..........so the TRD may be slow and currently wanting but over time they will adjust and be like a steamroller.
  10. With the current scrutiny required by IMM officers at inbound desks, can't see this ever working in Thailand, just too many regulation variables to consider with inbound passengers, tourist, non-tourist, resident, non-resident, permanent visa types and validity, re-entry permits, tourist e-visas, visa exception, visa on arrival, and all the visa associated arrival conditions for the various visas' application...in addition to other contributing factors I have missed here. Then the old out of sync of information between all the various IMM systems. You have been rejected at the e-passport processing machine, please go to an immigration desk, now you get on the back of the long queue with all the other folks that were rejected plus those not wanting to use the e-passport processing machines. LOL
  11. RE: However, the tourist, who is pursuing legal action against his assailant, was not seriously injured, The Pattaya News noted. Well, maybe he could have been, if those thugs decided to thump and kick the crap out of him like they did to his mate. Sue the ass off all of them and the bar owner to boot.
  12. Give me a break, Sky News re: This rhetoric indicates a potentially unprecedented use of presidential power to target political opponents, which could deepen the political divide in the country. OMG, what have they been doing to President Trump since 2016, weaponizing the justice system in an attempt to jail their political opponent. The divide started when the Democrats, their cohorts in Big Tech and Big Media plus the Deep State tried to unseat a duly elected President of the United States. The people spoke in 2016 but the Washington elites and the Deep State could not accept that they were not running the country anymore, but the people of America were, via Trump's appointment. The only way these individuals can we stopped is to give them a taste of their own medicine. Start with the 51 intel agents that assured us the Hunter Biden Laptop was Russian based disinformation, which impacted the outcome of the 2020 election results. A whopping 79 percent of Americans suggest President Donald Trump likely would have won reelection if voters had known the truth about Hunter Bidenʼs laptop—that it was real and not “Russian disinformation,” as intelligence officials aligned with Joe Biden falsely led the public to believe, a new national poll reveals. You might be an anti Trumper, but what goes around comes around.
  13. Climate Change, Carbon Tax. Please give me Money! CO2, 0.04% of the atmospheric gases. It's a scam, every 5 or 10 years we get these earth ending climate predications from the so-called scientific climate experts. None to date have come to fruition, man can not control global weather outcomes. How about a plastic tax here in Thailand, that I can see with my eyes would and fully support. Thailand, one of the top 10 countries for plastic pollution. Clean up Thailand's environment.
  14. LOS - Land of Stupidity I have always been of the opinion that there is a lot of dead brain matter in Thailand. The process of implementing new legislation by a government typically involves the following steps: Determining What the New Law Should Do: The first step is to identify the purpose and objectives of the new law Demonstrating Necessity and Appropriateness: It’s important to justify why the new law is necessary and how it fits within the existing legal framework Building Consensus: This involves gathering support for the new law among stakeholders, including lawmakers, interest groups, and the public Ensuring Soundness and Viability: The final version of the new law and the mechanisms for its implementation must be practical and capable of achieving the intended outcomes Following the Rulemaking Process: In many jurisdictions, the process of implementing new legislation is governed by certain laws and procedures These procedures include the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), Parliamentary Review Act, Paperwork Reduction Act, Regulatory Flexibility Act3, and others
  15. Prayuth...........do you miss me now..........555 These rich young liberal politicians are going to tax the crap out of the country and everyone in it, they can get their hands on!
  16. I have used WISE for years here, transfers from my Aussie NAB account to my Bangkok Bank here in Thailand, always successfully. But, there is always a but....never every had I received the transfer of funds in hours, minutes or seconds. At best, if I did a WISE transaction in the evening in Thailand, and it was before NAB opened for business there next morning in Aus, I received the funds in my Bangkok Bank my next day. But on average it took 2 to 3 days to arrive from Aus to Thailand, on weekends it of course took longer. I may be a skeptic, but while these financial institutions organizations are holding your collective funds, it gives them the opportunity to invest in the short term money markets. I know for entrain that with for the Reserve Bank of Australia, it has specific requirements for banks to hold cash equity overnight, banks borrow and lend the balances they hold in their Reserve Bank Exchange Settlement Accounts (ESAs) in the cash market. Sorry for the detailed information, but it supports my point. The Australian Reserve Bank has specific requirements for banks to hold cash equity overnight. This is part of the cash market, which is the market for unsecured, overnight loans between banks. Banks borrow and lend the balances they hold in their Reserve Bank Exchange Settlement Accounts (ESAs) in the cash market. These transactions are undertaken between banks on an unsecured basis for a term of one business day1. ESAs, which must be in credit at all times, are used to settle obligations arising from interbank payments within the Reserve Bank Information and Transfer System (RITS), Australia’s high-value payments system1. Each business day, banks that hold more exchange settlement (ES) balances than they need (i.e., to settle their net payment obligations) can lend the surplus in the cash market to banks with a shortfall1. The (annualized) weighted-average interest rate on these unsecured interbank loans is the overnight ‘cash rate’, which is the Reserve Bank’s operational target for the implementation of monetary policy. The Reserve Bank does not directly participate in the cash market, but it is able to control the aggregate amount of ES balances that are available for market participants to borrow and lend. It does this by supplying enough ES balances through its open market operations, such that the demand for ES balances is satisfied at, or close to, the cash rate target. In recent years, banks that make payments outside business hours are no longer required to contract open repos with the Reserve Bank. Financial institutions were still free to lend any ES balances in excess of their open repo position (surplus ES balances) in interbank markets, and earn a higher interest rate than if they had left the funds in their ES account.
  17. You are all wasting your keyboard energies. If found guilty. Joe will pardon him before he leaves the White House this year.
  18. OMG, do these idiots running government here ever think through clearly about policy changes before they implement them. As stated above, by many.... many scenarios where the owner of the bank account performing the mobile transaction is not the current registered owner of the SIM card. e.g. family plan, business ownership, replacement SIM card in travelling countries....and so on Seems, if it's in their Thai DNA intellect... no matter if it's BOT, IMM, RD and now NBTC..... Understand their strategy, but in life you can't legislate everything to protect everyone. With technology comes advantages and disadvantages.......a little education and common sense go a long way to mitigating spam and scams.
  19. Well, that's your opinion and as the know opinions are like AO's, everyone has one. Green energy currently is a hoax and unsustainable financially...........what do you think is currently driving this forum's infrastructure and networking, the PC or charge for your phone, the electricity services where you posted this msg. I can assure you, not your expensive subsidized green energy supply. Cheap energy drives economic growth and raises living standards of all people.
  20. So the VAT charged on imported goods is to protect local items available and sold in Thailand. Based on their announcement statement, if the product is not manufactured or available here in Thailand, there should be no VAT incurred on those imported goods. Tongue in cheek statement! 5555
  21. So here we go.....you all are beneficiaries of this amazing TM47 90-day online reporting software upgrade 555. 4 days of bumbling around with inferior software and inexperienced IT architects, programmers and developers. The answer to all your online 90-day reporting issues, "are you feeling lucky" "You can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear" Jan 23, 2024 Feb 23 to Feb 26 2024
  22. Re: The next day I received a nasty surprise via email with the following content: "Your application for "STAYING LONGER THAN 90 DAYS" has been rejected. Incorrect entry date upon entry into the kingdom/ Incorrect visa expiration date There may be a possible reason for this, I believe that the IMM database and 90-day online reporting database were never connected to share information real-time. You recall months back, we had this significant 4 to 5 day 90-day online reporting outage for significant maintenance.?????? Just an assumption, that if your details were correct, it may be possible that they finally have this IMM database to 90-day online database connection established. But, like most Thailand software, it's not working as conceived and pulling records from the wrong user index database records for your details. BTW I have VPN and find issues when it is activated with the 90-day online reporting system. PS. This could be resolved quick and simple if IMM had the smarts and initiatives to resolve it. On the error, ask if the user requires more details, if yes, generate a msg with a security code to the user with a request to enter the security code sent to your mobile. Once the security code is confirmed, a link opens where you can click to show you what information is required in your form field in error. (no guarantee it will be the correct information) If that does not resolve the issue, make an REAL English-speaking support hot line desk available for 90-day online issues.
  23. After you insert your Passport number and Nationality, select the blue box with the view symbol, the form will autopopulate all your details. This information autopopulated in your form application is what Immigration has for you currently for 90-day reporting details. If it gets approved with incorrect information but gives you the 90-day reporting extension date, just go with it. If you ever get queried, just give the same response Immigration officers do, "90-day online software broken not work" My understanding and I don't know much but IMHO, just guessing, the IMM and 90-day reporting databases are not real-time synchronized, in fact they may not even have any physical or logical connection between them. Only when IMM officers are forced to check your 90-day report details because of an online 90-days reporting failure do they look at the IMM database records and insert the updated 90-day details manually into your 90-day profile to match both sets of records. As you can see, if my best guess is correct, it's an ongoing God damn nightmare every time there is a IMM database change to your profile details. Cheers
