He said 48 foreigners had been arrested for overstaying their visas, 262 for sneaking into the kingdom without a visa and 232 others on other charges. More and more, these random raids are looking like a shakedown to fund RTP's gambling, drinking and mia noi/gik addictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the same things not happen in your country? I know in mine the process of getting a visa to live and work there if you come from outside Europe is beyond belief ..it's so difficult, a lot harder than it is here.

You ever walked through the 'nothing to declare' part of an airport and suddenly felt uncomfortable and nervous, even though you know you've done nothing wrong and you really do have nothing to declare? Yea, that's the feeling some genuine tourists and expats may be feeling when seeing these kind of stories, etc. I have the same feeling in any country. Don't think thats the issue. I just think that the priorities is non-exsistant in the Thai dictionary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saladin Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I have no argument with rounding up illegals but I question why this is apparently being done by the Traffic Police rather than Immigration. Surely their time would be better spent actually enforcing the road rules and apprehending and punishing the transgressors who have turned Thai roads into the world's most dangerous.

I think the figure is actually 99 1/2 foreigners arrested since some countries use the comma as the decimal point. ???? 5 hours ago, vinegarbase said: I am waiting for the day they lock all foreigners bank accounts and make them leave with just the clothes on their back.

Firefan Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I recall from previous mass arrest article(s) that some of them was for not doing their 90 day report. Not mentioned here, but probably quite a few under the "other" category. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have 5 poor baby pelicans in your bag. Haven't you heard the saying about pelicans "Its beak holds more than it's belly can" that is another 5 bottles of scotch, 1 in each of the pelicans beaks.
