Well, I got my letter today so I guess the 2004 applicants will all be informed soon.

Good news, we hope?

Seems like it. The letter is in Thai, but the payment details are in English.

Congratulations, Camerata.

Thanks. And now, a month later, I've finally finished the whole process... I think. The last stop was the district office, to get on a tabien baan, and they are really meticulous there. They pointed out an obscure error in both my Alien's Book and Residence Certificate that no one had noticed before. Later that morning I ended up on the 6th floor of the Immigration building at the Aliens Registration section and their reaction to the error was: "Ha ha ha... this is Thailand. Don't be so serious! No need to change anything! Would you like to have lunch with us?"

I have to say that in Bangkok the officials I dealt with were all polite, helpful, and generally friendly throughout the whole process.
