Popular Post ALLSEEINGEYE Posted November 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2022 If people knew how bad the conditions are at IDC and how difficult it might be for some to pay for their hugely overpriced plane ticket home (which can only be purchased through IDC with a massive mark up) they would probably not play the overstay game. IDC is a true horror show of human rights violations. Avoid it at all costs!! 5 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kentrot Posted November 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2022 Earlier this week at Jomtien Beach, I was seated near a young Russian who was on his phone continuously for over an hour. Strange behaviour for a tourist don't you think ? I have heard from reliable sources that many eastern Europeans buy their way around Immigration rules . It is considered quite a routine business. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read this forum.... all the questions asking for agents etc So many forum members themselves are also doing the same thing and ‘buying themselves’ a way around the immigration rules... And... IF Thai Elite is not ‘exactly buying our way around immigration rules’ then... Don’t hate the player, hate the game !!! - Immigration, want things exactly this way - its how they make some money !!... 7 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is your problems with that? Do you want innocent Russian citizens to participate in a war that they do not want? When USA attacked Iraq and whatsoever, you talked like that about US people living here as well? Stop dividing people even more. People like you are the reason why this world is such a mess in the first place. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happens all the time in all countries and is hardly headlines. The problem is that despite Thailand's tough behavior against tourists (which they need, even if they do not wanna admit it) and even often being hostile against expats with families in Thailand, people are still flocking into Thailand in masses. Supply and demand. Immigration can be tough, there is an endless supply of cash cows. Other poorer countries which are not so over-runned with tourists are happy about any of them. If you overstay there, you get a slip on the wrist and can continue your things. So yeah, while on the one hand it is a joke that this is any news, on the other hand Thailand can afford such a behavior. In the end it is still one of the most sough-after holiday places in the world. The country of Georgia literally offers 1-year-visas on arrival for most citizens. But no one wanna live there. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
