5 year multiple entry DTV visa (Destination Thailand) from 2024-xx-xx
"Criminals" would just use the agent-system to avoid scrutiny - the same as is done for the many other forms of entry/stay they could use before the DTV existed. It is only legit applicants who must deal with immigration roadblocks. They are punished for doing things honestly. This has been constant for years - only varying by the degree of problems honest-applicants face, for various types of entry/stay. The DTV, like other cases - including the Non-Ed, TVs, METVs and Visa-Exempt - those using the agent-system will not have to deal with any of that. But, those mistaking the system as "honest" may have problems, until they learn the real purpose of "the system" - generating brown-envelopes. Those who learn to navigate the "real world" environment, vs the "how it should be" fantasy, will have a less-stressful experience. -

What was your job (profession) when you moved to Thailand
I studied Psychology but completed only half the course I am now qualified as just a Psycho! Actually, I never had a profession, Worked on the Railways for about 15 years from Messenger Boy to Senior Officer 1, that;s 6 promotions involving working in a few places around England, Went into Sales of Office equipment before going to College again, failing there again to complete my course in Anatomy and Physiology. This enabled me to get a much better job that a full qualification as an Occupational Therapist would have provided. 5 years in that helping disabled people learn to drive with hand controls and getting in and out of a car with specialised wheelchairs. Very rewarding job, I enjoyed so much Then for 15 years in my own business in greetings cards, half of which time employing 5 people in England and 8 more in Portugal where I covered the country. In my large Grade 2 listed building I also managed a bed and breakfast business -Yes I was very busy. At the same time my English wife was a Speech Therapist over almost all the time of my working life. -

Thai man condemned for using free cafe WiFi to watch porn - video
What is the problem? A bar is free an if they give free internet it is up to them. That the man did not spend anything should be told by the man in charge that consumptions are obliged or leave. But he did not do that. Policy should be changed, but you can't control what people ae doing on their cellphone -

Can you defend yourself?
Thats called gaslighting and is a common but wholly unintelligent technique commonly used in forums by those lacking an intelligent base from which to enter the fray of decent debate... ... Try harder. -

A question on sibling responsibilities'
If Bro cant pay sister will.....A friend of mine bailed out her drunk brother who crashed into a parked police car, she borrowed the 150,000 bail money and she was paying to off for several years as the case kept getting delayed, I asked her why she didnt let him rot in jail well in a more polite way she then says he has wife and kids, this is an adult pissed as a parrot behind the wheel and takes out a police car and sister foots the bill....Family bond is strong here. -

Do You Believe: Next year, and the next, will be HOTTER than 2024?
The smoke problem will never go away. People burn things all over Thailand and nothing much is ever done. Northern Thailand is the worst. Being a prisoner of your house is no fun . There are many other places to live where you'll be more comfortable and not have to hide from the outside world. If it wasn't so cold so long, and I didn't have family in Texas, I'd move to Canada.
