For Thai government the foreigners bring more benefits than the Thais
Corrupt Thai government is working demonstrably more with foreign mafia than with the own Thai population because foreign mafia is bringing millions of benefits every day, among other things by bribes for illegal but human visa. But Thai population does hardly bring any benefit for the corrupt government, above all on the countryside.

And now one has to know that the visa system for foreigners in Thailand is inhuman and is provoking new bribes, this time to the Migration Board.

Inhuman visa regulations in Thailand - and bribes "under the table"
Thai government has - in collaboration with criminal foreign mafia - not only installed big brothel industry in Thailand and not only installed a pensioner's law for people from 50 years on. But Thai government installed visa regulations depriving foreigners systematically from their honor.

-- for students under 50 years counts that they have to get a control  stamp every 3 months at the same migration office paying 60 dollars (1900 Baht) so the passport has two more stamped pages every 12 months
-- for the same students under 50 years counts that they have to go abroad all 1 1/2 years for "getting" a new general visa which is called "visa running" in the press
-- and as a person of over 50 years a bank account with over 1 million Baht is preconditioned - which is illegally solved by a bank account with regular payments on it.

These are only some examples. Visa regulations are a paternalism and are an absolute nonsense. On one side the passport is always stamped on and on with Thai stamps and pasted with Thai documents. On the other side many migration officials and transport companies are occupied by this "visa method" of 3 months permanent control and other staff is missing at other places. On the long term this degradation of foreign students - who mostly are speaking several languages and are more intelligent than the Thais - is a frustration of course. And then the offer follows: Instead of 7,600 Baht (240 dollars) for four stamps in one year it is allegedly offered a year's visa with only one stamp but for 20,000 Baht. And the trip abroad allegedly can be evaded with a payment for 40,000 Baht. As a white foreigner of over 50 years it's allegedly also possible to live in Thailand without 1 million Baht but one has to open a bank account and has to make regular payments on it.

Well the year's visa has got a "hitch" instead of all: All 3 months one has to go to the migration office giving a "report" ("90 Days Report"). That means that Thai authorities mean that their control terrorism in the country would make "order". But there is another sense with this terrorism against foreigners with visa regulations: Corrupt Thai police commanders and corrupt Thai government are cashing from the foreigners millions with these high visa fees. The payment is allegedly made "under the table". The funds are not flowing to the official cash points and are not distributed to the Thai population but are flowing into the pockets of the corrupt commanders and of the corrupt government - and the "normal" population gets NOTHING of these high visa fees. Corrupt police commanders and Thai government are the main culprits - and the "normal" Thai population is not aware of anything but "normal" Thai population only is getting aware that there is never bettering anything in their life.

Instead of installing projects for all people in Thailand bettering life conditions for all and also in the country side with more staff, police commanders and Thai government are organizing the inhuman visa system which is much work for the Migration Board and is even provoking that the foreigners are paying 1,000s of dollars as bribes for getting human visa conditions - but filling the private pockets of the corrupt commanders and government members with it. This money could be used better in other places - for example for the construction of water towers.

"Normal" Thai population is not realizing nor perceiving the complexity of this problem and does not see the maneuvers of the corrupt police commanders and of the corrupt government. Thai population does not see how the criminal commanders and how the criminal government is organizing a system with the foreigners getting full private pockets, but "normal" Thai population is simply insulting the foreigners with the word "Falang" expressing it's frustration...

Don't call foreigners "Falang" but "kon kàú" ("whites") because every foreigner is different.
