How did immigration not notice it when he first arrived? And why did they suddenly decide to pay him a visit? Lastly, why do we so often only get half the story? Seems doubtful to me that they re-check visas at a later date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djayz Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I don't understand why the authorities at the airport didn't spot the fake visa at passport control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to look twice as well he seems rather hidden by the dark shirt worn by the cop in the background. A phony visa but trying to make an honest living by teaching unless he encountered some of his fellow countrymen. Not hard to go astray these days.

Go irritate somebody else. To me a mistake is not an act, that when you make it, you already know it´s a criminal act. Period! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a grip on yourself, it was you who started the "word beating", it is hardly my fault if what a word means to you is more limited than it's actual use and the OP was actually using the word correctly. Take a tip from yourself and stop word beating, you are clearly not capable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a tip from yourself and stop word beating, you are clearly not capable. Just getting more and more tired. I try to explain it this way for you. Below example sentences taken from Cambridge dictionary (The blue explaination is mine): I'm not blaming you - we all make mistakes. (Here somebody has made somebody aware of a mistake, which he didn´t know or can´t be blamed for.) This letter's full of spelling mistakes. (This person did clearly not make these mistakes being aware of them. That´s why they are mistakes!) I've discovered a few mistakes in your calculations. (This person did not calculate wrong on purpose. That´s why it is a mistake) Why am I under arrest? There must be some mistake. (This person is not aware of why he is under arrest, and therefore believe it´s a mistake) Conclusion: This cambodian must have been aware of that his passport included a visa that was another persons. Therefore it is not a mistake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
