Report Israeli Tourist Busted for Selling Magic Mushrooms on Koh Samui
Oh I forgot one thing. Remember that oil company that formed the foundation for Abramovich's wealth? He obtained it in a rigged auction and admitted to paying billions in bribes. The Chelsea owner made billions after buying an oil company from the Russian government in a rigged auction in 1995. Mr Abramovich paid around $250m (£190m) for Sibneft, before selling it back to the Russian government for $13bn in 2005. The Russian billionaire has already admitted in a UK court that he made corrupt payments to help get the Sibneft deal off the ground. He was being sued in London by his former business associate Boris Berezovsky in 2012. Mr Abramovich won the case, but he described in court how the original Sibneft auction was rigged in his favour and how he gave Mr Berezovsky $10m to pay off a Kremlin official. The document says that the Russian government was cheated out of $2.7bn in the Sibneft deal - a claim supported by a 1997 Russian parliamentary investigation. The document also says that the Russian authorities wanted to charge Mr Abramovich with fraud. It says: "The Dept. of Economic Crimes investigators came to the conclusion that if Abramovich could be brought to trial he would have faced accusations of fraud… by an organised criminal group." Mr Skuratov told the programme: "Basically, it was a fraudulent scheme, where those who took part in the privatisation formed one criminal group that allowed Abramovich and Berezovsky to trick the government and not pay the money that this company was really worth." The document also suggests Mr Abramovich was protected by former Russian President Boris Yeltsin. It says law enforcement files on Mr Abramovich were moved to the Kremlin and that an investigation by Mr Skuratov was stopped by the president. The document says: "Skuratov was preparing a criminal case for the confiscation of Sibneft on the basis of the investigation of its privatisation. The investigation was stopped by President Yeltsin … Skuratov was dismissed from his office." Mr Abramovich remained in the Kremlin inner circle when Vladimir Putin came to power in 2000. The document contains details of another rigged auction two years later, involving a Russian oil company called Slavneft. Mr Abramovich formed a partnership with another firm to buy Slavneft, but a rival Chinese company was planning to bid almost twice as much. Many powerful people - from the Kremlin to the Russian parliament - would have stood to lose out if the Chinese won the auction. The document says that a member of the Chinese delegation was kidnapped when they arrived in Moscow for the auction. "CNPC, Chinese company, a very strong competitor, had to withdraw from the auction after one of its representatives was kidnapped upon arrival at Moscow Airport and was released only after the company declared its withdrawal." https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-60736185 In short, there can be absolutely no doubt Abramovich is a criminal. -

Non O Extension Renewal | Timing and Travel Question
Personally, that's just maybe my 'too-proactive' approach to things Immigration here. Do what you can the earliest you can. However, for you in your case, if you do your extension on June 16, 17, 18, or even Monday the 21st which is a few days prior to start of your first trip, you will surely be back at the conclusion of your second trip ahead of the last day of the 30, or what ever number of days it turns out be, under consideration. But make sure about the need or not for a new re-entry permit for that first trip, or whether you will being able to use your existing one for it. And you will surely need a fresh re-entry permit for that second trip during the under consideration period. Factoring that issue, that's why I'd favor getting the new extension and new re-entry in the fold before departing on the second trip...which means going out to CW May 29 or 30 for the extension. Please do report back what happens!
