nedkellylives Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 What an thread! Since when selling is reserved for Thais? I used to work for an MNC which had reasonable large sales team here in Thailand. Many of those people who were on technical sales were definitely not Thais. Or is it just a matter of defining the work title a bit differently. Plenty of tourists working as time share touts in Patong and Kata/Karon with no work permit as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesseFrank Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Nathan, I have to question your figures. I have been riding m/bikes and driving cars for 25 years inThailand. For me to achieve 1,000,000km, it would require about 110km of travel every single day of those 25 years. Not possible when you factor in days when you don't go anywhere, only short trips to the shop, holidays, etc. I think it is possible, Wit. I'll try to simplify the calculations: If he made MANY trips to Pattaya, for instance. A roundtrip is already more then 1000km. So IF he made 1000 trips to Pattaya in 7 years the million can easily be reached. Very plausible.. A roundtrip to Pattaya is more like 2000 Kms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me that puts him to a quite different set of people than the time share touts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post N47HAN Posted May 10, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 10, 2014 Ive held a WP here for 10 years, employ 15 to 20 Thais depending on workload and im proud to say ive paid all relevant taxes and have run a legal buisiness here since inception. I listen to all the bar stories of how people dont pay this or dont have that and havent had for years. Me , im happy to sleep at night knowing im (and the company ) are totally legit and when the day comes that immigration or whoever wants to check my records I nothing to worry about. I would appreciate if anyone wants to question my legality here they join me for a beer somewhere.

NamKangMan Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Below are a few occupations reserved for Thai's only. I would be surprised if your work did not involve one, or more, of these restricted occupations. Especially in relation to driving. Labor work except labor work in fishing boats under the next category below. Driving motor vehicles or vehicles which do not use machinery or mechanical devices, except piloting international aircraft. Front shop sale. Auction sale work Brokerage or agency except in international trading Professional civil engineering concerning design and calculation, systemization, analysis, planning, testing, construction supervision, or consulting services, excluding work requiring specialized techniques. Hawking of goods Clerical or secretarial work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wrote "for an MNC" not "for MNC" nor "for an MNC branch". Oh, you native English speakers.. you always seem to need assistance with the language And as this topic has wildly gone where no thread has gone before. Do you know if it's possible to hire Chang girls to serve at private party and how much would it cost for an evening? That could be a fun thing to do if friends from back home visits the island.
