Selling counterfeit stuff in one of the small shops or in Jungcylon? 100's of them in Patong without visa or workpermit. Good backhander every month.

farang62 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 It's time to check everyone, everywhere, no passport to bad hold them in police station until one is shown. Problem Police stations won't be big enough. The law should be enforced, carry your passport and be prepared to show it, The Thai's are required to have their Thai ID cards with them at all times. When requested by a properly uniformed and identified officer. I have noticed and witnessed "non uniformed "Thai Persons" saying they were either police or immigration officers. Demand them to show their ID card, if not tell them to take you to the police station. I have seen it in Lamai, when they are asked for an ID they tell the person "never mind" and disappear. I always have a photo of my passport and latest TM card available on my phone. Most of the time this is enough proof, but if not produce your documents as required by the law. inconvenient, to bad! This is the law so enforce it. It is also the law in most other countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time Traveller Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Maybe it's a slow news day or something, but how is this even news? In other countries, 300 illegals could get arrested in a day and it wouldn't even registered in the news at all.......I suspect the biased Thai media is deliberately trying to paint foreigners as evil threats to society by finding any law breaker (even having to resort to the most trivial transgressions of the law when there's nothing else to raise a stink about) and pushing this to the front of all news reports. What makes it so laughable is the best they could find for todays anti-foreigner propaganda piece is 3 people on expired visas It's disappointing that a website catering to the foreign community in thailand consciously spreads the government line by publishing stuff like this.

Agreed. We've tried eveything else to get rid of these pesky tourists, from taking away the sunbeds to down and out violence; but still they come. Let's lock half the suckers up, and see if that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonron Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 No need to segregate people based on region and color . everyone must be dealt with according to the law which l, I think is the same for all.. so clean all people who overstayed their visas or have been living with out proper documents. No cheap charlies from any country for that matter.. in fact most of the cheap Charlies are Occidental and not Oriental .. never condemn people based on color and region..

meinphuket Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Ahum....go to the largest shopping mall in Patong, and pick up more than a few dozen Nepalis and Indians illegally working and staying. Go to most Thai restaurants and the staf will be Burmese. Stop pick up trucks in the morning, and find 75% illegal Burmese. But this generous of source of tea is of course very well known to the BIBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this generous of source of tea is of course very well known to the BIBs. Burmese have a special agreement, as do Cambodians and Laotians, their situation changes from year to year but at the moment they are being given ID cards if they are in work here, they provide roughly 10% of Thailand's workforce, they are very much needed, nothing to do with tea money, more to do with fulfilling all the low paid jobs that Thai's are not willing to do. Indians and Nepalese vary in status, just like your own nationality, some are here illegally some legally, not sure why anyone would assume that they must be illegals just because they are from India or Nepal.

Because that's where they belong - most of them are illegal for a reason, on the run from home country, scammers, selling counterfeit watches on the street - nothing to do with seeking a better quality of life.
