when the current James Bond, Pierce Brosnan was shown 3 pictures or 3 thai men

and asked 'which one would you want for your next movies', Brosnan chose

Taksin and said 'who is this one, he'd be great for playing the bad guy', when told

he was Thailands' PM, Brosnan added '...that's perfect, he already had experience'

All of the comments say about the same message:

1. I am from THAILAND entering through the US-Border Police filtering

2. I am in THAILAND contacting the US-Embassy, the US-State Department

In both cases, for either US State Department or for US Immigration or US Customs [now joined as ICE=immigration+customs enforcement]

...standard training is: all first contacts [with aliens or with thai's] for visitors from

or within Thailand are to be suspected for thruthfulness {thai's and all asians are treated from the onset as liars, comes from US-Police experience}

It's actually no different than meeting the father of your girlfriend, you get looked over, especially if you have been 'over there'. Sorry Thailand, you've got a Rep.

It is easy to smooth contacts with either: polite, friendly, no pompousness [do what I want becuase I'm american citizen and my thai girlfriend...wants...blah]

It is that easy. It is also smart to choose who you talk to, everyone can be in a bad mood.

This comment goes double for thai police, be simple and polite, but be smart in choosing who you talk to. Thai Police, if you're not respectful enough or too friendly

can get suspecious, ...because in Thai training and Thai mindset, falangs cannot be trusted, lie, ....and have drugs, money, etc, are 'bad-guys'

comprehende?

...I can get you married to a thai girl, age 29, competely trustworthy and

smart, an english teacher, she has one 4yr old daughter [from a thai who will no marry her], daughter is genius, fluent in english;

...thai girl is now pregnant with american-boy, expected in april...this

makes for US passport

....this would give all the things that would enable someone to stay here

....I would give you her email if you can help her

....just give me airfare, one-way ticket out of thailand, never want to

see or hear of this place again,

...but will help this lady

....sorry, you all missed 3 important points:

1. you need to show the bank-book, no orignial bank-book in your hand,

no visa from out-of-T-land embassy, no visa-extension in bangkok

2. thai-embassy personnel can be testy and bitchy, and have 'been given

the discretion' to decide, under Thaksin, it is easier and safer to decide NO to visa or to the visa you want or no to you 'because you stay too long thailand'

3. bankok thai immigration police: room 205 personnel are 50/50.

sargent-major Vut Sripoo will try to be helpful, but his bitchy supervisor

regects everything no matter what you've got: wife, babies, money, recs, friends, etc. go to chiangmai, where friendly = helpful.
