For the IT experts. For a government activity like this and where there is the possibility of compromise of national security, do other countries have live back up / alternative systems etc? Is that possible?

 

Not in Thailand. Not so long ago the Air Traffic Control system went down and there was no backup. Any money for such things might have been siphoned off, perhaps?

Wake up yourself, I never said anything about Mr t. 

Yes, it is 2016 and he is sooooo over thailand. He's got a great life where he is. Why would he jeopardise that. Most of the concerns about him coming back or even giving two hoots about thailand, are from unfounded paranoia of the i want to control everything camp. 

I was refering to any number of people with no one specific in mind. 

 

What total rubbish.

What happened......someone posted a pic of their lunch and all terminals clicked "like" at the same time?

 

I think it's more like they were trying to filter out cynical negative TV members and found there was too many positive results but couldn't understand why they keep coming back in that crashed the system.

 

SYSTEM ERROR DOES NOT COMPUTE.

As I mentioned in a previous post when I was at immagrtion in MAP ta Putt  I saw one the monitors with XP windows. Man how long was that software used. Not a.wonder it crashed. And if they are still using that country wide no wonder there are problems with the 90 day report.

It makes one wonder- how did people survive prior to the computer age?  Actually, quite well.

 

   Although before computers . you could just give your passport to a local guy , who would go to the border and come back with a new visa without you ever having to leave the beach

I'm guessing they could easily override that error by entering your elite card number. :coffee1:

Great! I actually thought all the electronics at the immigration was just for looks, especially with all the existing piles of paper files at Immigration police stations waiting to be processed.

Good to know there was/is a system actually in place.

Yeah it's a joke and a system designed only to fine people.  They always come unstuck looking stupid. Even when you run around for them. Your still treated like a potential criminal. Do they not know that these people at the desks are the ones that give there digital hub of Asia a bad name.

Money spent on maintenance= a working system. 

 

Maintenance in Thailand means: washing the screens, the body and when it has wheels; the wheels too.

 

I know a story of a friend's wife that maintained his laptop what happened in September 2016. It was clean from the outside and after 4 days water still came out of alle the holes... New motherboard, CPU, HD, DVD drive, battery, memory cards but it was cheaper than buying a new one... Also he had a Thai version of Windows 7 installed loaded with extra software containing loads of virusses and fake virus scanners.

Don't spout your hate on here. Ridiculous comment.
