I can't celebrate the return of anyone who attempts to stop the practice of "tips" to IO officials. Brown envelopes are the reason I can continue to stay here without a local bank account. I want the option of buying privilege. 

Hopefully he or someone else  catches up with you, as you're one of the a/holes who maked life more difficult for those that abide by the rules

Just be careful you don't end up on any of his lists, or it will be bye bye. 

I have no reason to end up on one of his lists, where’s your sense of humor fella?

I never really had a problem with this guy. He was essentially doing the job he was supposed to be doing.

However he was becoming an inconvenience to other high ranking people which culminated in him arresting  someone's girlfriend as I recall.

His downfall followed rapidly after that. 

If you recall, Big Joke was flying all over the country when he was head of Immigration dealing with things like casinos that had nothing to do with foreigners or Immigration. Apparently his capabilities were too stellar to confine him to his desk at the Immigration Bureau and he was entrusted with many important and delicate tasks that needed his special skills. He was very close to a DPM who allegedly pleaded for lenient punishment when he was caught committing an unmentionable offence which allegedly involved straying into someone else's jurisdiction.  I didn't hear anything about the girlfriend but I am sure it was much more important than a that.

I make more than the amount stipulated. I cannot keep money in an inferior Thai bank. I have bills to pay at home. I abide by the rules they make (or waive for a fee). Big Joke needs to get with the program, accept a brown envelope and SHUT UP!!!!!

Oh boy!

This is the guy who made tons of more archaic rules and hoops to jump through during his short reign at immigration.

 

 

Hogwash.

Name one... just one.

A lot of the derogatory remarks on this thread seem to reflect animus towards the RTP in general or snarky amusement at his nickname in particular.

Oh please.

 

The guy made a lot of stupid new rules.  Thousands of expats had to leave families because of his rules.

 

In return the government lost millions of baht of revenue to the detriment of the Thai economy.

 

If your his fan boy good for you.

We can see why that your nickname.

One of the "tourist police" wannabbe guys.

 

I hope he catches up to you and gives you a big smooch for being so loyal.

 

Ugh
