itsari Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Is the story really News ? I do not think so. Thousands upon thousands are on overstay in Thailand and most probably longer than the chap from India. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Wondering which of those thousands of Somchais never ever had the idea to run an "overdue" list in their fancy immigration computer. I saw - by co-incidence - my own online record on a screen of an immigration computer and, trust me, everything is recorded there. The only explanation could be, that they put in the arrival year as 2557 (Buddhist calendar) while the computer runs on the Gregorian calendar (2014) which allows another 534 years until the immigration whistles and bells go off ... Another harmless fellow and an extremely poor certificate of immigration performance 8-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumongkhwai Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Well I will certainly miss my Rotis in the evening when I hear his horn on his bicycle or, some warm roasted peanuts with a cold beer. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LALes Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 After reading this, it begs the question, who holds the record for the longest overstay? Amazing what you can accomplish if you keep a low profile. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This gives hope for us all, especially as we get older and deportation seems less catastrophic. Natural death may come before the Immigration boffins knock on the door.... My retirement extension is due end of this month. Makes me question why waste petrol and money on stupid photocopies? Assuming no need to ever exit/reenter Thailand of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbbbooboo Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Hmmm… only 3168 days overstay. If it were years it might be remarkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 I have no sympathy for over stayers. If you are not rich enough to be in another country legally, go home to your own country. That is simple math. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AhFarangJa Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 I thought that about two years ago Big Joke stated that after extensive efforts there were no more overstayers in Thailand....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will probably just go back home, get a new passport, and do the same in another Asian country. Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, take a pick. Might even be a blessing for him to change ground. The question is how did he slip away from all checkpoints, registrations and hunting all this time. Laying low, hiding in plain sight seems still possible. I doubt he was hiding underground for 8-9 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing what you can accomplish if you keep a low profile. There was a guy on here with 11 years overstay some years ago, just before the severe penalties came into effect. He got his sheet cleaned, and was back the next week. What the record is, Buddha knows. I have no doubt it is more than 2 decades, maybe even 3 or 4, never caught.
