Non-Imm B one year for Chinese citizen in Penang

[michemiche]

Looking for answers.
Does any one here know why Chinese citizen cannot get one year Non-B visa, even with all papers, including Work Permit.
Instead they are just allowed to get a 3 months visa.

They were lucky to of gotten a single entry non-b visa.

China is on the list of countries that can only get a visa in their home countries. Here is the list from Vientiane's website: http://vientiane.thaiembassy.org/upload/pdf/RestrictedCountries2013.pdf

If the business can meet the requirements they could apply for a one year extension of stay at immigration.There would also be a 35k baht minimum salary requirement plus at least 4 Thai employees.
