mickymouse1 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Reasons are: Auditors discovered the numbers of foreigners arrested and supposedly removed did not match the numbers announced by BJ. BJ always stated that there are no more overstayers in the kingdom, fake info. The Big Boss has been reading TV on regular basis....555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCC1701A Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I was going to be the only one in line at immigration in July when I get my extension. Now there will be long lines again of Nigerians getting their education visas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcnx Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Good. From what’s being reported he was abusing power. May he be stripped of all rank and power and his life ruined. The shame and loss of face he’s going to have will be overwhelming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt if it will be reversed because its the RTP as a whole who would lose face. Hopefully it will be a "revision" of the rules after "careful consideration", in the Thai interest of course, that may see the acceptance once again of Embassy income letters. After all, whether people tell porkie pies in order to get an embassy income declaration or whether they use an agent to bribe the IO and/or bank it amounts to the same thing. It will just be back to normal for those honest amongst us to obtain marriage extensions in a reasonable and less stressful manner. But there again, I always think of a glass being half full, rather than half empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
