People actually thinking they are cleaning things up are just too naive. It is always a matter of bumping off the competition so that everything flows their way.

Hmm then 10s of 000 would have to leave Immigration income stream decimated.

spidermike007 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I do not buy this. I do not believe it is true, or sincere, for a nanosecond. This is meant for public consumption, to ally the fears of additional corruption in the immigration department, due to the changes in visa policy.

Honesty for him is what other people think, not what is real. I doubt there are many honest people in Thailand, and this guy certainly isn't one of them, but it will suit him to create that impression and be seen to be helping the government out in a task they have completely failed in. But it's a game. Charades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommysboy Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Gulp.... never thought I'd see the day.

Now it clearly states that the person doing the extension must do it in person, unless unable to do it because of disability. So going by that using agents is not allowed.
