Foreigner Wrecks Chiang Mai Stall After Smoking Ban Warning

Well the Rot has set in now on Kho Chang, with the office now fully staffed, instead of just the one older guy doing the 90 days, ( the same guy who does my home visit) I just went to do my 90 day report, and they wanted 100baht 'service fee', I said OK give me a Receipt, had 3 different officers repeat it, so I just repeated no not unless you give me a receipt, this is not about the money but the principle, I walked out with my passport new 90 day in my passport, to be followed out by the older guy, saying he will take care, off he goes and comes out, everything is now ok and I can go, out comes 2 more officers, trying to explain that now they are busy they need to charge, I just repeated the no receipt rhetoric......and now we can do yearly extensions there, I told the lady I still need to go to Trat, Laem Ngop as my bank is only in Trat now, "Oh I can take care of that" she says. Oh yeh I bet she can.......$$$$$. I know I can do it on line but it is so easy for me to pop in while out shopping.

  I rang 1178 just now and they want all my details, before one can make a report, something I fear  would have bad repercussions for me. No wonder they get away with so much corruption.

You dialed 1178 and they actually picked up the phone!

It is a recorded message, it has the option to give all your personal details, if you select no, then it just repeats the same message.

Same for the residence certificate racket in Hua Hin, sometimes you don't pay as per the rules and another time some overweight corrupt one in uniform will charge...and of course they will tell you to go to hell if you ask for a receipt.
