Homebased Work On Internet

[freddiek]

As a retired ex-pat lving in Thailand without a work permit , can anybody tell me if I earn a few ''bob''

on the internet am I likely to be rushed off to the bangkok hilton, or some likewise dungeon!!!!

Only if you get caught.

Seriously, I was under the impression that any work in Thailand (even a director of a non-trading company) should have a work permit. Even voluntary work with no salary or expenses requires a work permit.

Although technically you need a WP, if keep what you are doing quiet and dont advertise things to friends/family etc etc, highly unlikely you would be caught out

Generally the only people that make money from the " earn big money at home" are the people selling you the ebook or training or whatever it is they are selling. Best thing is to start reading up on webmaster/affiliate forums and learn a bit before jumping in with your cash.

There's quite a few people out there doing internet work at home. All you need to do to verify this is look when someone is looking for a rental and their number one priority is high speed reliable internet, unless they're downloading pron .

Currently in Thailand there is a MASSIVE lack of web designers who can do quality work.

and before you say no dude there are heaps, I can tell you for a fact that while there are quite a few 'agencies' in Thailand there are very few Quality designers and i can also tell you that as a web design school with a decent reputation here we get calls every 2nd day from companies (foreign and Thai) looking for designers.

If you wanted a easy job, where you can do everything but meetings at home, then get into web design. there is millions of bhats of work that is left not done because there are not enough designers here.

Look at web jobs bangkok . com and you will see some of the jobs there that have not been filled.

THAILAND NEEDS MORE WEB DESIGNERS!!!!
