Visa Crackdown on Koh Phangan: Two Foreigners Arrested for Long-Term Overstays

Thai tourist police have arrested two foreigners on Koh Phangan for overstaying their visas. South African national Schalk Jacobus Botha, 51, was detained after reports of him harassing tourists—he had overstayed by 1,255 days. Myanmar national Zaw Ni Tun, 30, was caught separately after trying to flee police; he admitted to overstaying by 510 days. Both men cited financial hardship as the reason for their failure to renew visas. Authorities emphasise that the crackdown reflects a zero-tolerance stance on illegal residency.
