bkk barney Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 just as a warning to some of you teachers working here without a work permit, the tourist police volunteers do monitor this site so it is probably best if you do not give out too much information about your selves.

He actually said... the tourist police volunteers volunteers... not regular Tourist Police, but Farangs volunteering to help the tourist police, they are active in Pattaya. Whether or not they would be checking visa/work permit status from their minivan by Walking Street..... I don't know !! totster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konangrit Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 There is at least one that posts here too. I'm not surprised that they had problems reading ladybird books when their English teacher is incapable of reading a post properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ijustwannateach Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn. Couldn't you have posted this on one of the OTHER threads already open about teaching and work permits, "Barney?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenkannif Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Just out of interest do these volunteer police have work permits? As I thought that even if you were doing volunteer or charity work (unless you work for an NGO? Like the BC?) you still needed a work permit? Also wouldn't it be more of an Immigration concern than a police concern? And aren't they mainly based in Pattaya rather than Bangkok (or do they hang out in KSR?)? Sorry this is a tad off topic, but I'm interested in knowing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkk barney Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 ken, unfortuneately these guys are allowed to work here illegally by the tourist police whereas teachers are not protected by such high powered ppl, yet the volunteers for the normal police are setting up bar owners for working illegally, i assume the tourist police volunteers will start doing the same in the near future. lovely ppl we live amongst, i remember when i first came to Thailand and everybody said dont trust the Thais, well that has certainly changed now...
