Drumbuie Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 "The implementation of a new database played a crucial role in the success of this initiative" is perhaps the most significant sentence here. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no nabbing those 109 unfortunate souls. the headline is just ridiculous and bears no correlation to the actual facts reported. My first thought ... hmm, new math.

Mike Galley Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 I believe that the dark figure is much higher . Especially Russians and Ukranians may be involved...and in some way I can even understand them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're saying 109 foreigners died in Phuket in 25 days of May in Phuket? Sorry, I'm just not buying that. Perhaps they're inflating ALL those numbers to justify their existence? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xtrnuno41 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Shouldnt be that difficult to check. You have database people coming in Thailand and on what visa. You have database people checking out Thailand You have database people working on visa You have database TM30 You have database 90 day report You have database TM28 You have database TM6? And probably some more additional databases. So software (put an AI in it) could spit out all the over stayers and or questionable stayers every day any day, if so..

Looks like those who are using the database don't have a clue what they are meant to do with the data, or more likely, they don't know what the **** they're doing! Would guess most the overstayers who have left the country are from Myanmar, migrant workers. Then a chunk of Soviets and Chinese. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
