These people smuggle drugs and sell them openly working with corrupt Thai elements They run boiler rooms. The laundry money, for sure involved in terrorism indirectly. They fleece lonely 43 year old Thai women out of their money on "romance scams" Do the vast majority of farangs do anything like that? , no way. But because of these crims the average workers, family men, pensioners and tourists are troubled with ever increasing immigration hassles. Any decent law abiding person should be happy to see them driven out. Looking forward happily to the next Black Eagle crackdown. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPatrickThai Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Let's hope the Cameroonian English teachers with fake degrees are next.

Be thankful for small favors. Draining the swamp in Pattaya, Lower Suky, and elsewhere, is a step in the right direction. Yes, next week they can target Australians, the week after that Koreans and then UK citizens. It's fine as long as it's not your country or people being targeted. Police work is easy when anything goes. There's no voting public to appease here. Watch out - you're next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The progressive left would be flooding the streets condemning "racism" and "profiling" while calling for sanctuary cities to be built to house these poor, downtrodden souls from sub-Saharan Africa who also deserve social welfare payments from their host country. But, not here in Thailand. Not a social justice warrior to be found. Even the neo-liberal Thais must be looking the other way. It's Thai-way or the highway folks! "Good Guys In; Bad Guys Out!" So, Nigerians are perceived to be a predominately criminal class by the Thai establishment, so they get Big Joke and company's attention. That's actually somewhat refreshing in this day and age of political correctness. The US should hire him to run the TSA. ? Can he do 6/6 months USA/UK?

They didn't stay for 6 months or longer and outstay their visas did they? or sneak in using porous border areas etc. Worked with/for one Nigerian engineer who was Cambridge educated and was working for Shell UK. I think the vast majority you see on the streets in BKK don't fall within the same brackets. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DILLIGAD Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I worked for one of ‘the big 4’ UK banks during the ‘80’s we had internal memo’s instructing us not to open any accounts for those with Nigerian passports. There was reports of ‘schools’ set up to teach how to defraud banks in Nigeria so I applaud the action of the RTA however racist it may seem. Hopefully results will speak for themselves and make it easier for Honest tourists/Expat workers of any nationality.

Is the Thai embassy in Nigeria a soft touch to get a tourist visa? They do not qualify for visa exempt entry on arrival. Or VOA. They have to apply for a tourist visa in their home country.

"Bad guys in Good guys out" What a great mantra, the only problem is the harder they look for "bad guys", the harder they will be to find. Sure, they may catch some innocuous overstayers, but the real criminals will still be on the loose, one or two steps ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been plenty of references to them in the local press over the years, on a site about Thailand nightlife in which some of them have a presence, and on a site of someone who had to flee Thailand in fear of his life. Google Boiler room Thailand and you'll find plenty of links/info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
