Presumably many of these would have arrived over the past 4 years. Maybe the problems associated with visa renewal might have something to do with it. Just alone the time and mind draining inconvenience, travel expenses, having to put up with bad tempered, inflexible, deliberately unhelpful and inept immigration officers plus the loopy laws related to the different visas would be enough to deter anyone from bothering to renew their visa. But that wouldn't occur to them. Well said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 My friendly local som-tam lady, the informed-source of inside-information on most Thai affairs, tells me that approximately 77.2365% of the 100,000 over-stayers were hitch-hiking when Yingluck stopped to pick them up ! This explains a lot, really ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These crimes had resulted in economic damage to the country and tarnished its image. These are 'protected occupations' for Thais only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyDunky58 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Seems like the only time anything happens by the BIB is when they have a "crackdown". That means they have an extraordinary period where they are actually doing their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawker9000 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Whine & backbite all you want, overstayers are a logical target for the Thai government. 'Fits in well with the overall xenophobic campaign and no end to the stream of reports of foreigners committing whatever crime who turn out to be in an overstay status as well. And that means the rest of us playing entirely by the rules, however labyrinthine they may be, get to enjoy some extra scrutiny. Long-term overstayers fall into two categories: the ones that really are the criminals Thai officials say they are, and the ones still living in the 1960s. Neither group is making life any easier for the rest of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattaya1234was Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 It might be interesting to check on the number of over-stayers in the UK for example. Rather more than 100,000 I am sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevieAus Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 On 11/13/2017 at 4:01 AM, Watchful said: Regardless of the justification, actively policing immigration laws is important for every country. Failing to do that and you end up in the mess we have in the US, where millions of illegals demand their "right" to stay. It's hard to convince people that just because you have been illegal for a long time, you are NOT suddenly legal. I think the problem is that once you leave the airport, realistically there is little the Immigration can do to check on people particularly if you move from the address stated on the arrival card. I rememember years ago asking the question of an Immigration officer in Australia who laughed and asked if I was serious, he said unless people are caught breaking the law they can evade detection for years.
