royar2002 Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 And the overstayers are something else. Why overstay? You get people on here asking what are they to do as they have overstayed by months the odd day I can understand but months? What did they do let it slip their memory? No sympathy from me I'm afraid. Drinkin' and shaggin' keep 'em fully occupied it seems. a few joints a day. What day is it? What month? What year? Oh shit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

britainmal Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 No, Samran you don't know what you are taking about. If the admin.

samran Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 well to be honest you are not the best ambassador for the cause. Ranting and raving acheives nothing in Thailand. And the way you are going about it, while nice for a anonomous internet forum, gives you a snowballs chance in h3ll of being sucessful in Thailand. And you reckon you want to be a Thai citizen?

britainmal Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 I am the one of the best persons for the cause. You don't seem to care because you already have Thai citizenship. I am talking about it something your not doing. If you have better ideas then help us out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dighambara Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 It is my opinion that, in this instance, Dr Pong & Derek have missed the point. I am here on a 'retirement visa'. In researching on which visa I should apply for, I was thoroughly confused by the Thai system. Since then, I have heard & read about foreigners who thought they had legal visas, only to be incarcerated under the rather harsh Thai system. My point is that same one I made a while back. US, Australian & European visitors usually have more ready cash and income than 10 Thai, Burmese, Laotian, Indian, or Chinese families, so should be in an entirely different category. In light of foreign aid to Thailand from the aforementioned countries, I am astounded that 'short tour' visas are even required. The greater majority of visitors in this group could care less about illegal activities. Those activities serve no purpose............................... The rare 'western visitor' who willingly and knowingly violates the current laws, does so at his/her own peril. NOTE: When I arrived at Don Muang, authorities did not follow regulations, step by step. My passport was stamped indicating my visa was valid for one year without any mention of quarterly check ins with immigration. They also obligingly overlooked numerous local and international requirements regarding my cat........................? Visa descriptions are unclear, it is a confusing process to get a visa, authorities handle every case differently, so how is a person to know just what is correct?

thaimee Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 Yes, how is a foreign guest or toursit to know where he stands and what his or her rights are in attaining a Visa when the laws that be, contradict A, B, C and D RESPECTIVELY!!

If the Moderater like's it or not. (Basic Human Rights) unfortunately on the net and on given websites the hosts can edit what they please. This is not a human rights issue in any way. Perhaps a freedom of speech issue but the site and all sites can posts and edit or delete what they please. It is their right. It is their site. I'm not saying I agree with it, it is merely fact.
