LTR Visa is Now available for Long Term Residency
It's odd that whereas e-gates are used to enter and exit in Malaysia and Singapore, as of a few days ago, Suvarnabhumi only allows e-gates for exiting, and as you mentioned, you would receive a stamp upon reentering. However, it appears that you can enter through e-gates if you have a passport from Hong Kong or Singapore. Other passports will eventually be able to enter through e-gates, I suppose. Additionally, I made the error of not informing the officer that I had an LTR the time before I entered Thailand, which resulted in a two-month validity stamp! 🙄 -

Thaksin, Anwar Ibrahim, and Brunei Sultan Discuss Myanmar Crisis
Picture courtesy: Thai Newsroom Key figures from Southeast Asia gathered for a crucial meeting in Brunei, intensifying discussions on pressing regional issues. Former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, and Sultan of Brunei Hassanal Bolkiah focused their talks on the Myanmar crisis, the South China Sea disputes, and enhancing intra-ASEAN trade. Leading the talks at the Istana Nurul Iman, Anwar Ibrahim, as ASEAN's current chair, asserted the importance of these discussions, highlighting Sultan Bolkiah's vast ASEAN experience. The leaders collectively addressed the continuing Myanmar conflict, reaffirming the need to adhere to the Five-Point Consensus and to engage all relevant stakeholders. There is a pressing concern over the burgeoning illicit economy in Myanmar, dominated by drug trade, human trafficking, and scam operations, necessitating an urgent and strategic response. On the topic of the South China Sea, the trio agreed on the importance of diplomatic progress. The negotiation of the Code of Conduct (CoC) should be expedited to maintain peace and order in this often contentious region managed by several ASEAN countries alongside China. The leaders stressed the urgency of these diplomatic efforts to avert potential conflicts. Economic collaboration within ASEAN also took centre stage, particularly focusing on fostering greater trade and creating a business-friendly environment. They discussed the need for effective regulatory frameworks to stimulate capital inflow and to encourage robust economic growth within the region, promoting shared prosperity among nations. Cryptocurrency emerged as a topic of interest, with discussions centred around establishing proper blockchain infrastructure and enabling digital accessibility, which are seen as vital to the region's digital economy. Additionally, Anwar endorsed the proposed ASEAN-US summit, decided at the ASEAN Foreign Ministers' Retreat in Langkawi, urging that it be promptly realised. The summit would aim to strengthen ties with the US, enhancing cooperation on various fronts. This high-level meeting underscores ASEAN's commitment to addressing both economic and political challenges in a collaborative manner, paving the way for a more integrated and stable region. The cooperative efforts of leaders like Thaksin, Anwar, and Sultan Bolkiah highlight the role of ASEAN in navigating complex geopolitical landscapes, focusing not only on crisis management but also on future economic growth and regional stability, reported Thai Newsroom. -- 2025-02-19
