Rimmer Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Immigration: All foreigners working at Pattaya Floating Market legal PATTAYA:--Immigration police said all foreigners working at the Pattaya Floating Market are doing so legally after responding to complaints by xenophobic Thais. Officers checked the entire tourist attraction, checking passports, visas and work permits for 43 foreign sellers. Paperwork for all of them were found to be in order. Chonburi Immigration Office officials said the inspection resulted from numerous complaints and baseless allegations from Thais about foreigners working at the floating market. Immigration officials planned to check other local markets as well. -- © Copyright Pattaya Mail 2019-01-18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because a Thai in ottoman costume preparing/selling Turkish style ice cream just looks "funny"? One of the few opportunities for Thais working legally in Germany is as qualified cooks/chefs in Thai restaurants. Got the point? And I am sure that many westerners have work permits in the gastro/hotel business in Bangkok. Would you want to see a Thai belly dancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulic Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Thais don't want to do the work, and they don't want foreigners to do the work either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipButty Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 When they say foreigners they dont mean Farang they could be Burmese if so they go to the labour dept and get a permit to work not a Farang work permit, thats how the builders do it down here in Phuket, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lambchops Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I went to an open air restaurant in On Nut, Bangkok, Best Beef i think it was called.All the employees were Burmese according to my Thai friend. I was initially surprised, but after watching them work the effort & efficiency required much less so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Burmese of Cambodians do all the real work, if they need someone to stand around picking their nose or playing with their phones plenty to choose from!

Lots of long sad faces and they don't even hide the fact that your annoying them! Staff in the food court yesterday were screaming at a Russian family. Full on abuse! Went to oz recently and was blown away by the super friendly smiling professional staff pretty much everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Academic degree or qualification in highly searched job combined with a job contract and you can apply for a Blue Card EU. I think the salary must be around 40-50k Euro a year. After 33 month in the job the Blue Card holder can apply for a German "Niederlassungserlaubnis". Basically a unlimited resident permit. So I think compared to Thailand, that is a very easy process. In Thailand it is a lot more difficult to get a resident permit. https://www.eu-bluecard.com/who-can-apply/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
