I have no idea how many illegal over 80 year old there are, do you? Set precendents expect the unexpected Monitor person? Here I am, stung by your rapier wit. I did define the outcome in my reply. There aren’t a lot, but my guess 13. Have a nice life. Edited January 4, 2020 by Ramen087 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Aussiepeter Posted January 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2020 Oh - and for those who want to know about his health. If he ever needed to see a Doctor, old David went to Mae Taeng hospital and the lovely old lady there, who knew his wife and also his financial situation, would see him but put it on his Thai wife's medical record. Which is why in future years when someone looks at those records, they will see that in 2003 MRS Gaewboonrung Smith had a small cyst removed, from her left testicle. Not all Thais in government jobs are insincere - many are very caring folk. (David assumed anyone reading the records would perhaps think he had married a ladyboy) ! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to rid Thailand of criminal elements and foster peace and stability in the Kingdom.???? Silly bug++r is just a long time overstayer, criminal, seriously!!! Overstaying & illegal entry are criminal offences in Thailand, whether we like it or not. In fact Thailand ain't that different to many other countries in that regard. Do the same thing in Australia and you could end up on Christmas Island (there are/were Kiwi nationals there). I'm not picking on Oz, just that that's an example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Dogmatix Posted January 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2020 I wonder how many thousands of Thai criminals are overstaying in Europe, the US, Australia, Japan, Korea, Taiwan & etc. The UK should arrange a prisoner exchange and swap this gentleman with an illegal Thai waitress or prostitute without fine or incarceration. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giddyup Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Can you imagine at 83 arriving at Heathrow in the middle of winter in shorts, T Shirt and thongs, with possibly no family or friends to take you in, but instead thrown into some depressing old folks home where you can spend your final days in misery. I think I'd be throwing myself of the highest floor they have at Swampy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, its not a big deal in a case with an 83 year old retired man but the law applies to everyone, not just some. So pass the word. OVERSTAY is a CRIME in Thailand. Get over yourself! Don't give these ridiculous tin pot soldiers any credibility! If they were in the tiniest bit professional, they would have caught him about 12 years earlier, if he were really any risk at all, wouldn't they? Jeez, you people who empower these power-mad half-wits drive me to distraction. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Golden Triangle Posted January 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2020 2 hours ago, Just Weird said: Much more likely that he's not an Alzheimer sufferer but, even if he is, are they exempt from the visa regs? You're asking about compassion but there is no indication that the IOs are not being compassionate. He's been arrested, yes (what else would they be expected to do?) but that doesn't mean that no compassion has been shown subsequently. If the way Pattaya plod treated that 70/80 year old in their reception area is anything to go by then then any chances of compassion being shown are 0% - or did you miss that little gem ? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New knowledge Iam sure I am not the only one unaware of this process I have to say that the training we had at the para school was some of the best, most professional training I have ever had. It was also one of the best two weeks I spent in my entire life. It was 1973 and I had just turned 24. From a disparate bunch of part time Marines, paras, combat engineers and SAS with all the inter-corp rivalry, within 4 or 5 days the instructors made us into a highly cohesive bunch who would have done anything for each other. The true meaning of esprit de corps. It was also nice to think we came out of it alive! Here's a snap of my stick with our instructor, a brilliant chap. I'm the good looking one.

I think I'd be throwing myself of the highest floor they have at Swampy. Indeed, what a thought. He should have thought ahead. Cases like this were the reason I decided to get Thai citizenship. Some here have this Colonial attitude that think they have some kind of right to stay here for a long time, while their only contributing to Thailand is maybe by helping a Northeastern buffalo vet. Stop moaning about immigration laws and do what needs to be done to comply, it isn't that hard. I have a neighbor in a similar position, he sits at home all day moaning about the weather, politics etc, can't even speak to his neighbours as in his 49 years here he thinks Thais should learn English! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all ended happily as far as I remember. The assumptions made so far without the slightest evidence: 1. He's got Alzheimers 2. He's going to die in IDC 3. He's penniless 4. He's harmless 5. There was a battalion of troops to arrest him & c. One question worth asking is about his passport. Has he renewed it in the 13 year of overstay, or is he passport-less? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lipoman Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 He overstayed his Visa in Thailand. He broke Thailand's law on day one of overstaying his Visa. Therefore, he committed a crime in Thailand. He is a criminal with respect to Thai law. His age is irrelevant in this matter.
