[Anutin tells Swiss man Urs Fehr he should go home]

The question is: what will happen to all the assets owned by the foreigner who will be expelled?
Because he won't have time to sell everything if he is expelled.
Will the Thai government take them? If something like this happens, foreigners will have to be very careful in the future, all it takes is that there are false accusations or a case invented with someone's complicity and they will expel us and the assets remain in Thailand at their disposal.
Think about it, it's a dangerous precedent.

[Maybe Thailand should follow Korea and be more selective of expats/tourists]

From the linked article:

 

"Maybe it’s time we stop letting in the English-teaching..."

 

Yes because they are so good in English that they don't need foreigners teachers.. 🤣

Dear Wanchai Vatanakool (the author of the article) you cannot compare Thailand with Korea, don't be so arrrogant, you are totally on a different planet...
You want a different kind of expat\tourist? Before improve your hospitality sector and your country and after you can talk..

The only obscenity committed here, is the one done by the RTP. The level of pretense, the level of fake purity, the dumb and mindless application of laws here is beyond inane. 

 

What he was doing might be considered wierd by some. But, it was so utterly harmless. Women are getting abducted, raped and trafficked at this very moment, by Thai officials, and the police are pretending to be engaged in law enforcement. I seriously hope this results in just another omelette on the face of the rather useless RTP.

I totally agree, I don't see any serious crime in this case. In Thailand they give jail time for offenses that in the West deserve only a fine... They are dangerously resembling Saudi Arabia...

Welcome to the club.  However, my Thai wife passed away many years ago.  Oh, and I met her in my country where she was a graduate student.  

I've heard that if the Thai wife die, It's a big problem with the Marriage Visa for a foreigner, because the marriage Visa expires consequentially.
How was your experience?
Thanks

[Tourist faces huge bill, separation from family after testing positive on arrival in Thailand]

Hi all.
I want to give an advise to you.
I heard some stories about someone sitting near you and that in that case you would have to quarantine too..

So, I contacted the SHA+ Hotel I booked and... SURPRISE! ????

The van from the airport will be shared with other passengers going to the same hotel!
Understand? This totally incredible. WE prepare tons of paperworks and difficulties to go to thailand and after they put us in a same van with other persons that may be covid positive!
This is  a nonsense!!!

I objected and they told me if I want a private transportation I have to pay 500 more.
ABSURD.

So be careful!!

Thank you for checking the status of the application. Does it provide any more information other than saying it was approved?

No there isn't any other info only that is approved.
I got the "Verification of your date of birth...etc.) email too and I was scared about my thailand pass (already approved) . I was puzzled because they have already approved but after I got that email..
I checked my status and is still "approved".
The funny thing is that login failed at tp.consular.go.th/issues/cases/access but on the check my status page same login worked!
Illogical..

Apparently this is not a hotel bill, it is a hospital bill for covid treatment. Logically the policies covering asymptomatic cases would cover it.

[Costs of forced repeated tests threaten Canadian Sandbox holiday]

If Thailand continues like this, it will lose most of its tourists and many other nations will replace it soon, very soon.
And those tourists won't come back once they'll try something else.

Thailand thinks it is at the center of the world, but it is not....
