Isn't he sticking his nose in business where it doesn't belong? Last I read is the Immigration Departments are their own police and nothing to do with him.

😂😂. So funny this article. Portrayed as police doing their job, but hands up anyone who actually believes that 😂😂

I am sort of surprised they didn't dress up like commandos.

I've dealt with Chonburi Immigration for 10 years now never had a problem.

Prior planning and preparation prevent p#$h poor performance. 

I must admit I  was very impressed with the way they were sending such People to the back off the queue when I did a 90 day report last month.
