Yep, Thai Visa Haters gotta hate.

Any vitriol they can spew to make themselves feel better.

They done this to us so we gotta do that to them. Har har ha.

Pathetic little creatures.

You'll note, a lot of the TM30 moaners are also Brexiteers.
Now there's a conundrum ne'st pas?

Get them migrants out of the UK!

We want our freedom back from the EU!

Can't control all those Africans and East Europeans!

Yet the Thai govt just asks for a form to be filled out to keep track on er, immigrants and the baby is hrown out of the pram.

Pot. Kettle. Black.

Re, the Thai in the OP - what a sad state of affairs that he has not been granted a visa.

Still, if he'd been a Saudi, or N Korean - no probs.

Pro democracy Thai - ooh no - too dangerous.

Says more about modern day America than..............

It says everything about Trump

There is no comparison between immigrants to the UK  who are granted citizenship,  can stand for office and receive the benefits of health care,   education and welfare with foreigners who live in Thailand. In 35 years in London the white population has dropped from 90% to 40%. Whole cities have become Muslim and whites and white culture have been socially cleansed. Some schools have whole classes who struggle with English.  Numerous terrorist atrocities have been carried out by immigrants including the Manchester bombing. To compare the complaints about TM 30s to the insidious destruction of Europe is drawing a false comparison.  There is no comparison at all.

Very sad to see the negative comments in this post against the Thai guy. The people responsible for these anti foreigner policies in Thailand are the military junta. This guy is clearly not on their side. Odds are he is welcoming to foreigners in Thailand as his own daughter lives in the US. Know your enemies!

After working with Thais who lived and were educated in western countries, I suspect the odds are actually that he takes advantage of western openess and still would support Thai xenophobia. 

 

So many Thais and other Asians simply take advantage of us thinking we are stupid for allowing them to do what they will not allow us to do.

You don’t need a visa to enter the USA, they have a southern border that is wide open.

Wide open? I suggest that "wide open" is inaccurate and uninformed.

Please post your research on the subject to support the "wide open" comment.

Gawd  you can spout some  bile  all by yourself yet whinge about others. I note Brexit affects only the UK and TM30 all nations who stay in Thailand.

 

dare u point out reason and logic backed by facts, have u forgotten what forum this is?

Don't feel bad. Thousands of visitor visa applications to USA (and Canada) are rejected every year. Often for the same reason that after the visit they won't return to Thailand.

Public backs activist Sombat after US rejects entry visa
By The Nation
 

Sombat Boonngamanong
 
Pro-democracy activist Sombat Boonngamanong has received overwhelming public support after he posted to Facebook that his application for a visa to visit his daughter in the United States was rejected.
 
Sombat, editor of the online Lai Jut magazine, posted on his Facebook wall on Saturday that his visa application was rejected although he had previously visited the US several times at the invitation of international organisations.
 
He said visited the US for the first time as a guest of the US government to attend a seminar and present his ICT project for social development. He visited on two other occasions on invitations by the World Bank and The Rockefeller Foundation.
 
He said he had not visited over the past 11 years although his last visa had a 10-year period. During the past five years, he explained, he would have needed approval from the coup-maker National Council for Peace and Order before he could leave the Kingdom.
 
He said he wanted to visit his daughter for two weeks during her school break in September, but the US embassy said his visa was rejected for fear that he would not return to Thailand.
 
“It’s unexpected but understandable why the embassy officials think so. But I swear I intend to visit my daughter and return. I have no plan to seek an asylum there,” Sombat said in his post.
 
His post received over 4,200 reactions and was shared over 110 times. It also received over 370 comments, expressing sympathy from his friends and supporters, including some university academics.
 
Pravit Rojanaphruk, a senior editor of Khaosod English website, said in a comment that it was a shame that the US rejected an entry visa for an anti-coup campaigner after US President Donald Trump laid out the red carpet to welcome the coup leader, General Prayut Chan-o-cha.

Exactly.

Apparently he is high risk.  
Why is his daughter going to school in USA?  Thai schools not good enough?  Hmm.
