PEA office outside BigC closed.

I'm not paying my bill until they open.

Went to Maenam post office today Wednesday the postmen are delivering mail just the front of house not open I asked them when full service would resume and they just shrugged there shoulder the staff who work in the front were just sitting there so they will still be getting paid I managed to pick up my mail as they do not like coming up the hill to my house for some reason.

My visa runs out on the 2nd of Feb, I can send someone to extend it for me (have a paper from the doctor). I suppose now is not the time since Immigration will be closed? I wonder what will happen if they don't re-open before Feb... They can hardly blame me for overstaying, I can't walk until another 4 weeks or so.

I had an accident and was in hospital for a month here in Mae Sot. My visa expired while I was semi-conscious and I went to take care of it as soon as I got out of the hospital. They were not sympathetic at all and charged me the full fine and stamped as overstay. Do not depend on any sympathy. If you have a friend to help, use them.

Was your immigration office closed throughout your hospitalisation?

Did your hospital or a reliable 3rd party try to do it for you before you became overstayed?

Did you present documentary evidence to support your late request?

If the answer is 'no' to any of the above your reply is of little help to this thread.

Samui Immigration was open today.

Tot bohput closed I mean near traffic lights

I bumped in to the manager of TOT earlier in Lamai, he told me they will open again on Monday.

When they turn up Monday dismiss or sack the lot.

at the end of the day and over stay is an overstay even if you were in Jail for 10 years you would still have to pay the 20 k over stay. I know it does not make sense but different departments just see you as a bit of paper like in elsewhere across the world.

Would do but who would you replace them with

Defiantly should have their salary deducted for each day they miss as allot of people such as business people cannot operated and have to work double hard

Such as the transport office. People who need to update their license for work

Buy selling cars bikes

Very valuable, thanks a ton! I have a handful of friends, all of them busy right now but I'll tell them your story - maybe one of them can take half a day off. Peak season - everyone is working their a**** off...

I have to go before Jan 28. I can take your paper if you can get it to me on Samui...

Thanks... But getting to Samui is the whole issue. Someone needs to take my passport & the paperwork to Samui, I won't be able to walk for another 3-4 weeks so I can't do it myself... But thank you anyway :-)

Thanks, yes will call before I send someone to make sure they're open. Otherwise a pointless trip... Just need to find someone to send first :-)

The labour office is closed, apparently 'until further notice'. Not so great for people that have to renew their work permit right now.

I miss read that, I thought it was the Labour ward at the hospital then that would be a problem.

Great now this is starting to annoy me now The government get paid the same wage anyway just now the people who are going to be effected are people who need rubbish collecting sewage removed from their hotels, houses for rent extra Amper people shall have problems wok registering ID cards registering births marriages and all that This is really starting to piss me off now I sore a school marching today If my kid was in hay school I would be proper angry kids have nothing to do with this which makes that brain washing If kids want to protest then they should do on a Saturday and put their names down In other words up to you if you want to turn up in fact it should not be allow or it could build up tension in the school With kids who have parents from esaan might get picked on unless they join in Sent from my iPhone using ThaiVisa app

they would never do this in the US -- oh ... wait.

It's sad thing about all this, for some of the local businesses, they are having problems getting some parts/ stuff shipped from BKK... so unable to do their work or provide service... (my computer shop guy a case in point) .....

Tell me about it the land office people could be losing customers and millions or 100's millions of baht

People can't but or transfer cars

Yet the Thais who want to make the sell go down to the offices and get pissed off then join the protests

We are only hurting ourselves

I don't yingluck or her brother really give a toss from their luxury houses, condos and personal servants, private jets

I bet they are laughing their heads off

Why are you allowed to post's such rubbish. I'm all for Khun Yinluck she is the appointed Prime minister.of Thailand.

No politics please.A bit hard I know, but we leave political discussions to the news section.

Thanks.

Any chance of a starting a forang band and close forang businesses if the Thais ask us what we are protesting about

Our answer shall be

We don't know

Then Thais shall say neither do we

By the way this is a joke not really want to do this

That really gave me a laugh.

OK not a closure per se but still related.

Be prepared for slight delays because of traffic queues at Bangkok Samui hospital.

The yellow shirts have set up a small stage and demo on the ring road (as at 13.30). You can get through - just a bit slow.
