Tourist police track down overstayers

PATTAYA: -- Tourist police have been checking foreigners overstaying on their visas, following the recent murder in Pattaya of a Dutch national by two foreign men. They believe the killers may still be hiding out in Thailand.

Officers have charged Alex Boertien, age 35, a Dutchman found residing at Pattaya Pat Condo, with illegally residing in the country. In another case police visited a house in Soi Loumbamrung and found a German, 38-year-old Rene Schlief, who had been on overstay since his visa expired on August 5. He was also charged with illegally residing in the kingdom.

Pol Maj Gen Panya Mamen, commander of the Tourist Police, said the crackdown was in response to the murder of a Dutch tourist. Police are in the process of verifying all tourist records and will immediately initiate deportation proceedings in the case of anyone found outstaying their welcome.

Always bad news when a crack down comes around.

Its open season for multiple grassing by many people falangs and Thais.

So my advice to you all is

Do your visa runs or extensions down soi 8

or jomtien if its open now. (Not sure about that.)

And most of all don’t tell anyone your on an overstay. (go to the airport)

Especially your latest girlfriend as this may become an ex in a short time in pattaya.

Have a nice day.

Good advice,

I would also recommend if you have over stayed your visa, go straight to the airport.

Not only do not tell your ex girl friend, do not tell your drinking partners, golf

buddies, new girl friend. Do not tell anyone. An over stay on a visa can be enough to

have you deported and black listed....

Thailand is getting the Hub of crackdowns on overstay

But at least it makes sense to check that a little bit...

What full of Brits?

bottom feeders, scam artist, under funded retirement people who in no way could try to stop working back home. The ones that say everyone else is ruinning it, prices are going up to much.

Maybe a few years of the infastructure crumbling, sewer and water problems to include traffic. Then maybe the government will wise up and realize they are

losing more moderate income foreigners that have 3 times as much disposable income and use less resources.

Seaside resorts have to be managed well in order to be prosperous long term. Quantity over quality will never work as is the case today.
