geoffbezoz Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 The partial quote " Naew Na quoted arresting officers as saying that the work was done following orders from immigration chief Lt-Gen Sompong Chingduang to keep Thailand safe" indicates that prior to that order from the chief they did not bother their backsides to check anything ? Guess that is par for the lazy RTP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Isn't it amazing how ineffective the bothersome TM30 enforcement is to keep undesirable foreigners out? I said it before and I'll say it again: TM30 is worthless for ensuring "national security" because it cannot prevent undesirable foreigner from getting into the country in the first place. All it does is put a heavy burden on law abiding foreign residents and make them feel unwelcome. On the other hand, real criminals ALWAYS will find a way to slip through the net and couldn't care less about TM30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaanbiker Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 There's a waterfall in Prachuap Khiri Khan province and when you climb up you're all in a sudden in Myanmar. Can't be that difficult to cross a "green border." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emdog Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 If you could wave a magic wand and be rid of all foreign criminals it still would not make Thailand safe. There are more than enough home grown thugs, gangsters, drunk/stoned drivers etc here to fill any voids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would think they'd like relieve from all the paperwork TM30 generates, but it's quite the opposite. It secures their jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
