Immigration crackdown nets 522 law-breaking foreigners

[BigC]

You know that  pretty much  any thai xan be tracked via  ID card 

 

When making  tracking  sims for foreigners  is only becuase  foreigners  are harder to find thai Thais 

 

Foreigners  do get special treatment yet complain when they  worry about being  tracked

 

You knkw in UK the moment  you call the ambulance  service  they are already tracing  phone locations 

 

And that's  jsut tbe ambulances

The USA should steal Joke away and pay him by the illegals he deports. A much better compensation package. 

He would have to fight Nancy Pelosi and hundreds if not thousands of politicians that somehow benefitting from having open borders with minimal deportation. Not a concern in Thailand because here, apparently, the potential votes from illegal aliens have not been an issue for several years.

I'm sure they were all gone last time. BJ was around.

Or is it some new type of,  Catch and release scam.

 

Catch and release scam about right, that's why they let the in in first place, charge for entry and charge for exit, good business.

most of these will work for 300 Baht a day. Thais won't. At least not in Bangkok. Too lazy. So if thai police rounds up all these foreigners and sends them back home to Myanmar, Laos and Cambodia - who will do all the factory-/serving-/ construction-/ cleaning-work?

Feeling a little racist today are we?  This is all about (mostly) Thai owners of companies who prefer workers with no rights to a livable salary and few or none legal rights.  This is the kind of work force loved by disreputable employers all over the world.  And the people the BIB really should go after.  But going after their workforce time and again might also help.  Teaching new illegals every other month might be a burden.  So it's a thai sort of way saying "stop this, stupid".  Have a nice weekend y'all!

My girlfriend is on overstay from Myanmar and has been for awhile. We have been trying to get her ID for a long time now. Have been scammed a little or just get the big "run around". It does not help I don't understand the language and she just doesn't understand much she is told and forgets and tells me wrong stuff. On a recent visit to her consulate here in Chiang Mai they told her to go home. She said she didn't want to so they told her to stay out of trouble or she could be arrested and deported. She also has the belief that immigration can't go to her room and arrest her and she also said they will just let me go. She is very naive. She doesn't work as I have been supporting her.

Drive her to the Mae Sot refugee camp where she can walk across the river back to Burma (no guards or immigration).

Then come back alone.

My cousin pays 100bht/shift for Laos girls in his restaurant.

If they want more money they can go home with customers after work.

"One from Denmark". It looks as if by now they have got rid of all of them and are now just scraping up the residuals.

Unfortunately she doesn't want to go home and she thinks she is immune from immigration problems here.

You're asking for trouble keeping her around, get ready to be deported and blacklisted yourself.

Oh that was last years bunch.

500+ law breakers seem to be a common haul. Is this story just being recycled? You know the Thais are big on the environment.

And if all that work stops the air could actually become breathable in bkk again ????

Common practice years ago for the Thai building companies to send in the Immigration to arrest all the Burmese so the didn't have to pay them

My pet orangutan is too smart for BJ. Like me he never bothers his head with such matters as visas, in the unlikely event of them ever catching up with me. I will just inform the staff at the country pile, to make ready for my homecoming, get Robinson to dust off the Bentley, instruct Smithers the ostler to have the horses well shod. Demand Jones the vintler to have the cellars well stocked and be on my merry way home to old Blighty. I should imagine most others will do the same.

Are you dreaming or hallucinating? Get to the root cause soon. Age also creates this type of muttering.

I think he was having a sense of humour.  Perfectly reasonable light heartedness..  Much written each day that is nasty .. not this. He must be foreign tooooooo.  I get the gallows humour. He is laughing at our / his situation not being superior.

 

But hey ho.
