Considering you claim that 95% of Thai BGs are low class I'd say it would be safe to ASSUME you either know every Thai BGs or you are claiming to know something you have no actual idea about.

 

Now, can we get back on topic.

 The OP reckons it is about 95% as well !

So 5% of bargirls are high class?

I think you are asking the wrong person, how anybody can band about such figures with any seriousness is beyond me.

As long as she's a spinner, who cares about her class?

Yeah right; A friend speaks fluent Thai and is a professional certified translator. Her citizenship was recently granted, a process that took TEN YEARS with more obstacles than Aintree Racecourse.

I have some friends who got it, ranging from 2 years to 4 years.

@Neeranam, the comparison is quite clear and the point is clear, do you really need to have it explained to you?

What comparison?

ThaiVisa.com Forum Rule #2 states that you will not post material that " ... is knowingly or can be reasonably construed as false ..."

 

That doesn't rule out a whopper being thrown in by some now-and-then.

A whopper, or even a junior whopper is now known as "False News" and seems to the norm in these days of social media and hysterical reporting.

:burp:

This is not true.

 

There is no certification for translators in Thailand.

The MFA seems to have a list they want you to use.

Would you seriously have us believe that a country so hell-bent on paperwork and bureaucracy would allow such folly?

Yes, anyone can do it - I've done it myself a few times. Just write your name and telephone number on it. Even using shops that are recommended by certain embassies doesn't guarantee the MoFA will accept it.

Having a fancy stamp means nothing, apart from fooling some gullible foreigners.

When I wanted to get married I had a Thai schoolteacher do the translation of my 'Freedom to marry' document.

Sent it off to the MFA, and they returned it marked, please use a translator on our list (enclosed) for the translation.

 

Which I then did and it was accepted (the translation was the same).

I begin to think you are just a forum troll, as you seem to know absolutely nothing about Thailand, or the government offices and requirements (I paid 500bht to the official LISTED translator, including MFA fees, caught out once it was payment on receipt of the MFA approval, and the finalized and approved documents in my hand).

BS. I work as a translator. There is no such list.

It cannot have been the MFA.

I've noticed women married to Thai men get citizenship very quickly too.

MrPatrick seems to be making it all up.

I visited the special branch police on Monday and they told me the whole process could be done in two years.

And, I translated some documents myself, which were legalized in 4 days by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. My passport was one such document, after getting it stamped by the UK embassy.

I'd love to see this imaginary list.

 

What translation company charge 500 baht for a translation plus the MoFA fees?

I'm guessing a UK consular official was not required to countersign that document, it's the consular signature which the MFA is confirming on the 'freedom to marry' document, not the translation. If you read the MFA stamp on the 'freedom to marry' document, it says something along the lines 'I confirm this to be the true signature of Blah Blah'.

It was signed by the Pro Consul, whose name also has to be translated correctly.I asked her at the embassy how her name was translated as I knew it might be refused if spelled wrongly.

My stamp from the ministry of foreign affairs said nothing of that nature.

What wrong info  have I have provided on this thread?

 

Can you provide the list from the MoFA or are you just going to block me too :smile:
