Must monitor much, much more closely. After our leader Napoleon having recently encouraged us to read Animal Farm, the post above has just jogged my memory, seeing the word 'bad' in there: Four legs good, two legs bad. Perhaps there should be some Orwellian attempt by immigration to encourage the sheep's thinking to be: All Thais good, foreigners bad. Seeing references to 'pigs at the trough' regarding the coalition government members haggling for jobs is beginning to make more sense now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pi2005ni Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 The problem with most articles on news sites is the bad reporting or lack of understanding of English language resulting in the heading and content of the article being totally incorrect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

overherebc Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) 2 hours ago, DeeMak9 said: It actually was confirmed it would be like that. What was your interpretation of it? It was obviously a system where an employer who may have had work locations in different areas of Thailand could move employees, most likely migrant workers from neighbouring countries, as work needs dictated. It would also mean the employer would have to register those workers in the new area with the local labour office without the need to apply for and pay for a new work permit. So many posters were convinced they could get a work permit and then swan around working for different companies but were forgetting their work permit is tied to the job they are doing. You just can't leave your employer and go work for someone else without cancelling your WP and of course the extension of stay that is tied to that WP, ( you only keep your extension if on married/parent O extension ).

Wilsonandson Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Police and immigration officials checked the documentation of foreigners at 238 different locations around the country, including private schools, hotels, entertainment locations and language schools.What about temples?

DLock Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 I must be the only person that thinks this is not a bad thing. What's so hard about following the rules to get visas and work permits? Sure, it's not easy and it costs time and money, and I'm saying the rules are right...but why should some be able to avoid the rules and others not.

Is this under a democratic government or fascist regime? I am having a hard time deciphering this. Next it will be pointed at going to all the above board registered having all i's dotted and t's crossed foreigners residences showing a force. It’s about submission and servitude. The elite broke the backs of the people a long time ago and keep a foot on them every day of their life. If they attempt to stand up straight, they are charged with something ridiculous, usually in connection with the main you know who family. But they cant rule foreigners. We’re opinionated and vocal. We move freely and do what we want. Well, those days are over. Dust off the old laws and track us down, make us report every chance they can, knowing where we are at all times. Their foot is on foreigners now and they are in the process of breaking the backs of those who choose to stay here. They will rip apart families without a care. You will submit or you’ll be shown the door. You will lock up your money in a Thai bank with nearly zero interest so the wealthy can make money with your money. You will jump through their hoops when they tell you to jump, you will continue to humiliate yourself and continue to slouch and lose your posture as a proud person. And if you’re caught complaining (wait until they start coming after foreigners posting online), you’ll be shown the door. You’re not human here. You never were. You never will be. And now you’re being reminded of your place among the peasant locals. Know your place and shut up. Consider it a privilege to be here. Do as your told and don’t even think about standing up straight.

Good to see the correct terminology used. Police and immigration officials. So there you have it, Cops doing immigration work. ( that can't be so, well according to some posters) So lets have the surplus immigration cops, ( loads of them) out on the roads catching the bad guys and girls on the highways. after all, only 65 per day die on the roads here, unlike the victimless crime above. But hey, forgot TIT. Ps Nearly forgot, Get em, Get em now, evil foreigners. Yes.

Quote: And if you’re caught complaining (wait until they start coming after foreigners posting online), you’ll be shown the door. Very WELL written and I agree with every word you wrote. And I do believe your absolutely correct on that statement above that I copy posted. It is just a short matter of time before they turn on and up the flame on the foreigners posting online regarding their displeasure or thoughts on the powers that be. I as one person need to sit back and go silent at one point because I cannot afford to be tossed out as here I my life with my family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
