not correct...
you asked me "Why do you think they are doing that?" and then you gave me two options
1. Is it just because they are far to stupid to understand and read their own language...
2. Or might it be that they see a good chance of earning a little bit of more money...
Your question was a leading question. Both options are showing your intention. You expressed what your were thinking.- 4

Overstay is overstay ... nothing ever changed. You always had to pay a fine for overstay.

This is an open forum, which you seem to forget, and it´s a place where we share our opinion and discuss different matters.
Why don´t you go back to my previous post that you replied on instead, and explain my questions for me.? You seem to know everything.You wrote that "they are far to stupid to understand and read their own language"...
Is this a your style to discuss different matters? If foreigners in my country are talking like you I want them to leave. Your behavior is very poor.- 1

I've been enjoying Mexico since I left Thailand. Fixing to head down to the beaches of Cancun, Tulum, Progresso, and for my big city fix Merida. I have had all of Thai immigration I can handle in my lifetime.
Mexico?? How long will you survive? Quite dangerous there...

NON-O Retired Visa Is Not Enough To Come Back To Thailand
This situation is clearly known for a long time already. Nothing new at all and it will not change in the near future.
The OP must have slept for a long time if he did not know about it.- 2

Maybe just me but I honestly can't see what I'd do with 9 months in Thailand.
I can't imagine 9 places
( areas) that would provide enough to do to pass a month in each.
If, as is sometimes reported, many places are shuttered due to Covid what would I do to pass the days and evenings? How many temples/beaches can you visit etc.
It's not as though you can visit neighbouring countries ( 14 days lock up every time you return to Thailand )??
A couple of weeks ago we had a break in a 5☆ place we had been to a few years ago. At that time it was really good.
I reckon we were 2 out of 20 staying there. Breakfast was buffet style and only 2 or 3 staff on hand to clear tables.
Everything looked and tasted like it had been cooked at least 2 hours before and was all stone cold. When we asked about getting freshly cooked eggs/bacon/ham the answer was 'Covid problems' whatever that means.
If someone goes through the entry requirements tests/insurance/expensive flights/expensive quarantine then ended up in a similar situation to the above described I would not like to be on the receiving end of their tirade.
Just sayin'
After reading your post I got headache...

You clearly do not follow threads on here, many posters, myself included are unable to do it on line.
My last entry into Thailand was in 2012, too far back for immigration system to accept.
I am really sorry that I did not follow all the threads on TV...can you please forgive me?

It seems abundantly clear that those who make the rules do not intend for Thailand to ever return to the 40 million/year tourists they had been welcoming over the last few years.
Yes, 40 Mill. were too much. Better less and more quality.

I don't bother trying to do it online as it's a short trip (11 kms) to the Immigration Office once every 3 months. Small price (and effort) to pay in order to stay compliant.
I usually add some other chore to the trip (like a visit to Makro or stopping for breakfast somewhere on the way back).sure, everybody must know himself how to spend a nice day 55555

mainly tourists from China can come (Europe and the US are too risky)

''Prem asked the police to investigate a possible case of fraud amounting to 40 million baht''
Fraud? I don't think so...it is just Covid 19 ==> no tourists ==> no money- 17

I didn't get any schedule during my last extension to proof 800K after 3 month. Does anybody know if it is obligatory to proof this after 3 month? Last year I got a schedule and I went there (Soi 5). They checked my balance but I didn't get any receipt that I fulfilled my obligations. Of cause I kept this amount on my account this year too but what happen if I will show it next year with my next extension?

The govt is kinda stuffed if they do and stuffed if they dont. It is not an easy situation to handle. They allows tourists back and covid makes a rears its head again they will have the general population up in arms wanting their head. If they dont do anything they have the tourism sector protesting at their doors. I understand what they are trying to achieve here even though its probably not the greatest of ideas but i guess it at least shows they are making some attempt.
In regards to some of the comments about long stay tourists or expats being forgotten. These types of tourists are not what is going to save the tourist industry. Some foreigner renting a private apartment on a monthly basis eating at local restaurants and drinking at a local bar isnt their focus. Its the short stay tourists that are staying in hotels, eating in restaurants targeted at tourists who are also going on day tours, diving and all that stuff most long term stayers arnt interested in doing and spending money on souvenirs and duty free.
No, they don't target short staying tourists. 2-3 weeks quarantine makes this impossible. Perhaps they don't target expats but they like that the long time tourists come back (I mean the real tourists)

There should be no problem adding more hotels onto that ASQ list to accommodate the few more that this would apply too..
Maybe you don't read the news....the "emergency" is not over.... and the government is deciding how to manage the problem, not you. I don't think that you have enough information to form an opinion whether there could be added more hotels to that ASQ list or not. There are even many Thai people staying abroad who don't can come back at the moment. Your ownership don't entitle you to any privilege. Just be patient and wait a while.

Even all Thai citizens cannot come back to Thailand at the moment. There is not enough capacity to handle the quarantine.
and you are talking about property owners... 555 I understand your problem, but you should be a bit more patient- 3

What do you expect? If you aren't a Thai you are a outsider (outlander). You don't have equal rights like a Thai. This is in every country. You have to follow their rules. In your home country you also have to follow rules.
It is their right to ask you these questions. Have you ever traveled to the USA? They will ask you much more....
You criticize that you must have a proper visa? Are you joking? From which universe do you come from?
