He was looking for a Thai lady to be his wife.

The Ministry of Commerce needs to work with the Lawyer's Council of Thailand. The Committee of Professional Ethics must now include a new regulation to suspend the practicing certificates of errant lawyers involved in registering such companies. The lawyers are the ones touting the "loopholes" when there is no loophole to begin with.

Russians property agents are everywhere in Pattaya, holding themselves out as marketing analysts. Come on, Ministry of Commerce.

So the Lawyer's Council of Thailand is going to spring into action and suspend the practicing licenses of their fellow members ?

Can I invite the Ministry of Commerce to go after property agencies in Pattaya too ? It's important that Russians are also represented. Of course, their business cards will not show they are property agents. They are employed as "marketing analyst". 😄 After they have analyzed the buyer they will collect a fee from the seller.

Why did the Email headlines pick up the 3 Britons ? Why not "Chinese detained in Thai nominees crackdown on foreign businesses" since Chinese is represented by a much larger figure ?

He checked into the apartment on November 29 and checked out on December 1. So it was just for 2 nights, and it was an apartment, not hotel. I don't suppose the owner is operating Airbnb at her apartment and renting out to guests for 2 days.

Why does he even need a gun ? He is a tourist, isn't he ?

They should begin by investigating the law firms that helped register such entities. The law firms would often give assurances that it was fine to have Thai nominees. By removing a dozen of lawyers from the Thai Bar or Lawyer's Council, it will serve as an indication to potential Thai nominees that the Government means business.

The one from outside must be the motorbike taxi man. They are the unofficial officers of the unofficial Homeland Security Department.

Jomtien. So do the rules allow an agent to represent you ? That really is my question.

I'm referring to the 30-day extension. I understand agent charges 500 baht. Of course you have to pay 1,900 baht to the Immigration, separately.

It's the 30-day extension. Yes, my question why is the agent able to do it without me ?

You entered Thailand with a visa exempt passport, and before your 30 days is up you decide to extend your @ Immigration. Most people go to the Immigration Department to have their extension done, but some people pay the agency to do it. How does the agency do it ? I'm curious because I'm pretty sure the person seeking extension has to be there. Does the agency pay the Immigration Officer for the convenience ?

I haven't seen any advertisements online, be it PowerBuy or Numchai. I would like to get a TV that will has the decoder built-in so that I don't have to buy a separate set-top box. Has anyone come across any so far ?
