Attention all Thai immigration officials

We all know that Thailand is a great (some may say Amazing) country, and therefore many people would love to live here.

However, not all potential migrants to Thailand would be additive to Thai society, some even have evil intent.

As immigration officials you are faced with the tough task of sorting the goodies from the baddies.

I have come up with an idea to make this arduous task so much easier (to benefit genuine migrants and Thailand in general).

My proposal is for all potential migrants to be tested on their knowledge of (and love for) cricket.

This could be done either by a multiple choice questionnaire or some more advanced lie detector test / brain screening.

Those who score highly are obviously good chaps and should be granted the freedom of the kingdom.

Those who score lowly are obviously evil sinners and should be imprisoned or shipped back to the US.

Those with average scores could have their case screened more carefully (maybe even with non-cricketing factors considered).

What do you think?

Please note: this is an English language forum so it would be good if you could post your answer in English (or have it translated in the Thai language sub-forum before posting into this thread). If you have no particular questions, feel free to go ahead and make the relevant changes to immigration policy as of today (or tomorrow if you are off to bed soon).

Boss, as members of this famous "Thailand Needs cricket" team, we could draft the multiple choice questionnaire, and in that way, give our friends from immigration the time and freedom to learn the benefits of cricket. This would also eliminate any strain that would otherwise be placed on their immigration finances.

As for using the lie detector test / brain screening method, this could place added strain on the finances due to the frequent brake downs caused by people confusing

the machines with thoughts of that other ball game called baseball.

Anyway, as you say Boss, we will leave it up to our Immigration friends reading this forum to decide which way to go.

I am sure they would appreciate any input from our other team members.

Thanks for all the extra input guys..........sad.png

Certainly going to keep our friends, from immigration, busy......whistling.gif

Maybe we will get a better response from the Thai immigration officers if address them in Thai...

KJ, it seems you have been infected with the "up to you" virus. Has this been diagnosed by a doctor yet?

Thanks for bringing that to my attention, Boss.

Will consult with harrry, our medicine man, and get back to you.

What is the remedy for this virus? Will Nortons do the trick or should I try AVG?

Thanks Boss. You really had me worried there for a moment.

Might go and have some shut eye, as it is after midnight, and will see if I have recovered in the morning.

At least I know the remedy, now.

Well he has decided to lie down....not just lie down on the job.

Maybe we can get him to support the Thailand Needs Cricket (Two Knees) Cricket Team.

Maybe a cheer leader on each knee will cure the back problems......wink.png

Welcome to the team BespokeMan.

I you care to take the time, and read all 155 pages, you will learn that this is not only about cricket but also why "Thailand Needs Cricket".

Many things, too numerous to list now, have been discussed as to why "Thailand Needs Cricket" but anyone reading this topic would see

the great benefit to Thailand from having the "Thailand Needs Cricket" team.

This team is dependent on TV members so that we do not have to import outside help.

As you read through you will learn the positions of each TV member and how they contribute to the advancement of cricket in Thailand

and therefore the betterment of Thailand through this noble game.

Enjoy your reading and we look forward to input from you.

By the way, any position that you feel you could handle or assist with, please tell the Boss.....(Manager brit1984)

and don't be shy to ask questions.

Dear Thai Immigration Officials

I have not heard a response from you on this, nor have I seen any public announcement on reform of immigration policy.

Are you really reading this site or was the member who made that suggestion just a little bit bonkers?...

Dear Thai Immigration Officials

Further to the above, if you don't reply we will assume Thai Immigration Officials do not read this site (at least in an official capacity).

If you do use this site for pleasure (non-professional use) we would welcome your contributions, and we understand that you might prefer not to comment on the visa issues.

Careful Brit..you may find yourself clean bowled next time you go to immigration.

He will be OK harrry. Can use his undercover name......"Blimey Charley "

Actually the immigrationpeople may make good fielders..

They are allways catching people out. And if you overstay you will get caught behind too.

No problems with keeping records, either.

And they certainly know about paperwork.

If they give our team some multiple re entries it could up our run rate.

...which reminds me nobody has volunteered to keep score yet
