As ex-pats should we help convicted criminals (not naughty people) convicted criminals settle here?

As ex-pats should we help convicted criminals (not just naughty people) "convicted criminals" maybe people committing serious crimes settle in Thailand and live amongst us?

Should this be a decision solely for the Thai Authorities?

I have spoken to many people over the last few days on this subject and I am getting very mixed replies.

I was a victim of crime and injustice back in the UK which came very close to ruining my retirement plans, but I am here now and enjoying every minute of living in Thailand; maybe I'm afraid of losing that if undesirables are allowed to come here and spoil it.

if undesirables are allowed to come here

That train left the station a long time ago.

"As ex-pats should we..."

As an individual, you can choose to help or not help someone.

Don't drag others - 'As expats' - into what you decide to do.

I am asking generally what is the right thing to do?

Define 'help'. No-one helped me settle here - I've had to work it out as I go along - and I'm somewhat perplexed by your query.

Vague questions usually get vague answers. So far I can only say: It is `Up to you`.

This has nothing to do with visas. It is up to the administration to decide who is granted permission .
