Maestro Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Just now I saw this new notice on the website of the Immigration Police dated 30 June 2009 and published 1 July 2009: http://www.immigration.go.th/nov2004/2noti..._not_permit.pdf The only thing I can read in it is "300 Baht" and I wonder if it is anything that will affect ThaiVisa members. The file name "not_permit" sounds ominous. Could anyone who reads Thai give a short summary, please? -- Maestro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoorSucker Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 My wife translated it to "If immigration police learn English they will receive a higher salary" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 Thanks, PoorSucker. An internal notice to immigration staff, then. Like the other notice, a spreadsheet that seems to be the result of an English language test of some staff members. It's nice to see the effort the immigration bureau makes to improve the English language knowledge of their staff. -- Maestro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noahvail Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 My wife gave me this synopsis: Anyone who has worked in immigration for less than two years has to be tested for proficiency in English. She didn't say anything about criteria or penalties if one fails the test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 There's something about 300 Baht. Not a fee for the test, I should hope, but rather a bonus for the officer if he does well in his test. -- Maestro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
