No, you are wrong. For a lot of jobs you wouldn't get a work permit. Many jobs are for Thais only. (doctors, pharmacists aso) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airbagwill Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 there is a move to broaden the kind of work foreigners can engage in..... basically, those without permits ae just asking for it at present and are ethically suspect if that is the way they think they can do business.

Stargeezr Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Isn't his job description, one that a rich Thai person could have? I am not saying that any would want to do what he was doing, just that it could be done by a Thai person. If that is the case he has no leg to stand on. Bye Bye Mr. French guy..

Thailand has some wonderful resources. It takes some patience but it is usually worth the wait. The current officialdom makes life hard for everyone, including Thais.

Curmudgeon1 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Well done? Every tailor in Pattaya don not live up to the work permit standards. 15000 baht/yr for fictitious nominee employees. Not much effort to round them up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran00001 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 3 hours ago, Xonax said: Time to make it legal for foreigners on long stay to work in Thailand. On what grounds? Those who can prove that they do not take a Thai persons job can get a work permit, the rest would be a really bad idea for Thailand to allow as they would put Thai people out of work. Imagine if they actually did what you are suggesting, there would be a massive new influx from neighbouring countries, basic labor wages would decrease and price the Thai working class out of their jobs, there would be massive unemployment almost instantaneously. It actually might be a better idea to stiffen things up a bit, it would push the wages up in the sectors who use below minimum wage immigrants as they would need to pay minimum wage and there would be hundreds of thousands of vacancies, we would see a large reduction in unemployment.

There was no indication in the OP that the neighbours that reported him were foreigners: "Neighbors at the View Talay 7 tower called immigration police" How well would your "neighbourhood watch" program go if it was foreigners or Thais reporting on illegal Thai operations?

He seems quite comfortable there, Indeed many Europeans for the entire 20th century have been more than comfortable in dobbing their neighbours in (and killing them) It's in their blood.

HLover Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 4 hours ago, Suradit69 said: Well yes, you can't seriously expect the Thai government to throw open the borders and let everyone who is unemployable in his own country take employment away from its own citizens. One of the main responsibilities of any government is look after its own citizens. Very true, we see what is happening to the well qualified refugees in Australia and various EU countries. Those governments have the audacity to provide accommodation in addition to a monthly stipend for people who have paid so much into the system. Meanwhile, Grannie eats cat food alone without funds to pay for her utilities. Yes, the Thai's have it wrong= laughable common statements from the Thai bashers.
