This is something I'd like to know...

Do governments know where you are buy the use of the passport? Thailand keeps track of your use of the passport in and out. Does it know to which country you went?

Uk (or others) I doubt it keeps track like thailand. The schengan neither.

And I've always wondered why the stolen pasports could ever be used, is there no worldwide data base cancelling them?

 

Ever heard of Interpol?

So, why didn't you put 800k in the bank in 2001.  I did and most of the fellows I know did the same.
