I've been waiting for some announcement like this - it's the front end of a gigantic face-saving exercise.

The current administration are totally out of their depth and have been looking for a way to explain the humiliating mass-infection that they daren't declare or even admit to. With everything "100% under control" ???? they can now blame it on the South Koreans.

agree

The Thai Minister of Health doesn't have any concept of the concept of unknown unknowns. The department seemingly bumbles from one catastrophe to another. One can reasonably question the effectiveness and qualifications of leadership.

1100 prostitutes are coming back to Thailand? 

 

    The right time to celebrate Songkran and spread the disease.

They know how to find a foreigner on 1 day overstay ,but registered incoming traffic is hard to find ?? 

[spidermike007]

It can be referred to a dereliction of duty, and extreme incompetence. That is the very definition of the Thai army and their administration. Sometimes, it appears they cannot do anything right. The fact that they pick their ministers from the absolute bottom of the barrel, does not help. Considering how poor they perform, it is a wonder we are not seeing a major spread of Corona. Good fortune? 

[khunpa]

I don’t see the problem? The PM has said it is 100% under control and has also ordered any virus issue fixed.

 

There is nothing to worry about!

BMW Smart Cars; they find lumberjack Joe in the sticks of anywhere so doing a run on Khon Thai is a walk in the park! Pathetic, to say the least! 

 

It is not Lumberjack Joe ..... 

it is Timber Jack Joe.... and unfortunately he died a few years back... I think his horsevTuffy outlived him,  but not certain.

That just proves, how the Immigration / Government discriminates foreigners. All foreigners need to fill TM30, but Thai are actually not really

registered where they are.

Don't tell me the house book registration. That is nonsens, because most Thais live on different addresses.

 

Foreigners do not fill in TM 30's  these are for all householders to complete if they have a foreigner staying at their property. Don't call the Thais stupid if you as an educated farang can't get your head around it. 

[connda]

The government expects the Thais who work illegally in other countries to obey the laws in their own country?

Don't worry, give it 1 week and it will all be forgotten - problem solved by applying the usual Thai method.

Yes, the authorities have been outsmarted by illegal farm workers and prostitutes returning from Korea!!

A lot of the sex workers are probably in Pattaya. 

[JohnFlory]

The funny thing is that most, though I am sure not all, of these Thais did the same thing in Korea. They arrive with tour groups and then run away to get factory jobs and stay well past their 90 days. These are people that all immigration officers should view skeptically.

Credit card companies usually have the customers address, it would be highly unusual that they didn't, even in Thailand. I suspect you're looking at things from an avoidance perspective, I'm looking at the issue of what most normal people might have.

I doubt that illegal Thai workers in Korea have credit cards in either Thailand or Korea.

I think the Thais working in Korea did not just “run away and get factory jobs”. All set up for them prior. And probably did border runs the same as many on here do.As they are Thai they must be allowed back in regardless.

First of all, and I am in Korea now, there is no "border run" here as the only land border is with North Korea. Second, yes, some factory jobs are set up prior to arriving, but the tour group runaway is very common. My Thai wife is warned whenever she passes through immigration at Incheon airport. Immigration Officers flat out say Thai Tour Groups often have this occur.
