Illegal is illegal, and yes some of those that snuck through the border, were given an amnesty and issued a pink card and work permit would be overstayers if they went past the time allotted......no difference to any of the people not here legally, either by expired Visa, expired extensions of stay, expired work authorization, or those without documentation or even Stateless people. In another OP running the Thai government is willing to let the children of illegals who have no ID themselves attend school in Chiang Rai. Seems that not all are on the same page as this Immigration head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(IF they ever do). There are advantages to them being so far behind. Yeah right, by what measure? Immigration has all the information in they’re database, easily accessible on the fly by any IO in the field, not to mention the face recognition capabilities of their vehicles, what stoneage western country has implemented that? Not many. Banking systems light years ahead of many western countries including the US. It’s remarkable the number of individuals here that just lay and wait for a hasty put-down without rational.

tomazbodner Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 It is actually not so hard to get rid of overstayers. There are many countries that don't have such a problem. Discourage overstay by adding jail time for every day of overstay and increase fines by 100 or 1000 times. Utilize the immigration system, financed from the fines, to find everyone who hasn't left the country or extended stay by the date they were permitted to stay. Set up facial recognition from that million+ CCTV cameras around the country and actively search for those faces. Give 3 months grace period of no fines and help pay for outbound flights for anyone who wants to, but can't afford to leave and is on a long overstay. Advertise it so everyone is aware of this and have opportunity to pack up and leave. But then, getting country in order and making it very unattractive for anyone wanting to overstay would also make the folks who profit from those people lose a large chunk of income, and they are in quite influential positions. So although doable, it'll never happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was responding to "How are they going to account for people that have sneaked in through the porous boarders or came by boats? " If they have "sneaked in' the are illegal , have no papers to expire, and as such they are illegals rather than overstayers , In order that you be an "overstayer" one has to be a stayer first. Of course all overstayers are illegal, but not all illegals are overstayers. Edited July 8, 2023 by sirineou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Paul Henry Posted July 8, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2023 The one thing the wizz kid didn't consider is an amnesty. Many other countries use this with effect. If you get caught now you will face a massive fine, an incentive to go on keeping low. An amnesty would waive any penalties and would probably see a lot of overstayers wanting to leave the country 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
