Popular Post CartagenaWarlock Posted March 24 Popular Post Share Posted March 24 (edited) What's the Thai immigration number to report illegal business and work? I have seen an uptick in businesses and work by foreigners in Thailand, and they post on many social media sites. I'm guessing it's 80/20, using the universal 80/20 rule. Yes, some may have a work permit through their Thai spouse. Also, I see an explosion of social media videos inviting westerners to come to Thailand to start a business because vendors in Thailand don't need a license to start selling as vendors, unlike in the West. These video posters have stepped up their activities from touting 5000-baht rooms and 50-baht meals to starting businesses as vendors in Thailand. I am thinking of tasking my concubines to scour English language social media and report any suspected businesses (like taxi services, tour guides, salons, selling foods on the streets, and other possibly illegal stuff) by Westerners and Indians who watch these English-language videos.  Edited March 24 by CartagenaWarlock 1 4 14 2 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, you really took that one out of context! The OP should mind his own business. Not get involved in something that has nothing to do with him. As he is not affected in the same way as the context you are suggesting where for sure he would want to catch whoever it was that hurt his family. 5 1 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is obvious that I must have read it due to the fact I responded with reference to Thailand, Thais and their potential loss of revenue! If you go down your route you may find that your next door Thai neighbour is impacted by your interference and tries to take revenge out on you! I suggest you keep your nose well out of it and also don't second guess posters and insult them when you are asking for information!    Edited March 24 by scottiejohn 5 2 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt 35 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 I wonder if the Thais in our home countries think the same way🤔 If so, they will have a full-time job just reporting their own Nationals where I come from. Felt 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I doubt whether anybody loses money.In practice farang working illegally are not displacing Thais from employment.In many cases these farang businesses are adding to employment opportunities. Â Still the law is the law and it should be respected. Â The actual danger - if it comes at all - to these businesses comes from Thais who want to exploit the opportunity the foreigner identified - often the foreigner's partner or a rival business interest.And it goes without saying the constabulary will always be sizing up the financial prospects. 2 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
