Happened to me twice last week !! Okay, morning rant over That doesn't mean she is doing anything illegal just queue jumping,many companies hire labour from ajoining countries and the factories etc stand warranty for them the office lady takes all the visas/ 90 day due and gets them stamped up. You should try a 90 day at Pratchinburi. They have three staff just on 90 days and they are working flat out I hate the reporting bit but it is the waiting that is the pain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But good to see that it was cause for you to have a good laugh anyway....strange what makes some people happy. What makes you think this would only be about profit from illegal businesses and not capital held by illegal businesses? Why would it not just be about any illegal businesses? And it doesn't make me happy but it will make me laugh if people lose their property due to having used Thai nominees who are not actually a part of any business but have just been used by a foreigner to illegally own property, its amusing to me to see people brought to justice who are so arrogant as to think the law does not apply to them. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luk AJ Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Wait, they actually said that? I was in Thailand during that time and don’t remember the reds or yellows suggesting that foreigners should be kicked out. And none of their disagreements were around foreigners.

Popular Post brucec64 Posted October 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 5, 2018 All these guys that have asked for advice on this forum over the years about buying a house here with a nominee and been told by so many that it was not really legal no matter who tells them, and not to do it. Big Joke has not said he is going after corrupt illegal home ownership, YET!!! But imagine being deported and in worst case scenario banned, after spending X million baht to buy a house that some legal local person now owns and possesses the important 51% of. Not a good situation to be in. Possibly always waiting for a knock on the door.Everybody settle down. He is Immigration and house nominee ownership is under the land department. BJ is going after thai nominees hiring foreigners, not your homes. Dont transfer to the gf just yet, you probably have a better chance of keeping the house by keeping ut in the company.Sent from my SM-N950U1 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Google search for this only shows your post. Are you kidding me? You dont remember this. It was all over the Thai press. They nicknamed then the dinosaur generals. Parading and speaking at their protest at the stadium next to MBK. People laughed at them, then they morphed into the street protest show ponied by suthep, still the dinosaur generals pulling the strings. the reason why they were laughed at, was saying such things as, "closing down Thailand for 5 years," "rid Thailand of foreigners" They had thousands of protesters cheering them. You can see from their rhetoric what they meant, control thailand for 5 years and put in place mechanisms to stay in power longer, and make life a whole lot more uncomfortable for foreigners.....

Once he decides to "cast the net wider", going after "nominees" and their Farang customers having formed companies to "legally own" property, WATCH OUT BELOW........! Ahhh so you are renting?

Popular Post Antioc Posted October 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 5, 2018 Thailand is only following the "Global Norm" when it comes to Immigration. Try entering Australia to work illegally, Immigration Detention Centers there are full and deportation is a regular occurrence. Part of the reason the UK is leaving the EU is because it wants more control over it's own borders. If you are doing the right thing and conforming to the Law then you have nothing to worry about. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
