2 Year Overstay Bum

[beano2274]

I was in the same boat, had a mate who was on Overstay no passport, drunken a-hole, but he changed for a few months so that he could get his passport and overstay sorted out. He found a good job, but has gone back to drinking, only weekends now, but spends all his money and has gone into Overstay again.

Best way to deal with it, is let the family sort him out, do not get involved or you will be the one he asks for money.

Despite your incredibly insightful 'take on things', unless you are an 'effluent' errr sorry I think I meant a 'fluent' thai speaker, you really have no frickin' clue whether the family 'hates' him or not. Especially if you're goin' on some half-arsed thai-engrish translations, related to you second hand, to get the gist of the story from the family

Thais are complainers, and gossipers to the n-th degree. They will gossip about anyone behind their backs, (you should hear what they say about you!!, joking...). They will also complain just to hear themselves talk.

That the 'sister' and the person in your post fight all the time, is plain and simple none of your business (unless you finance the family thru some ‘salary’ or other assistance). Until it becomes a financial burden to you, I'd totally ignore it. The thais will sort it out themselves (or not depending on their motivation or lack thereof ).

You would do well to steer clear of 'thai family squabbles' whether they involve a no good worthless foreigner, or thai of similar ilk for that matter.

It's not your business, and currently Thai Immigrations offers NO reward to turn in over-stayers (FWIW: I checked already, because if they did offer even a paltry sum, I'd be a billionaire by now! )

And no it doesn't make a bit of difference whether he's in Nakhon Nowhere Issan , or downtown Bangkok , it's still not your business. ...

As an aside; I know all tooo many thai guys who sit around all day getting piss drunk and chain smoking too, while contributing nothing to the family. .

..the family might see the OP as the 'rescue package' and by throwing out hints and their obvious discontent have managed to shift the problem over to the OP to resolve seeing as it a farang..they will keep comlaining 'til the cows come home..and seems like there's a few 'milking maids' there to flutter their eye-lids.

Bottom line..let them do their own dirty work.

No one likes snitches, even the police who they snitch to. What is it with you?

Perhaps it goes back to an old bible quote: "let he who has no sin cast the first stone".

I vote with the group that recommends you mind your own business.

So do I.

Especially as you don't live here and most of the information you are getting is via the telephone.
