ORIGINAL POSTER

I have a friend stuck in Malaysia. He tried to renter through Don Muang airport on a visa exemption while a new place processed the business visa paperwork for him. Immigration at DM sent him back to Malaysia. He tried to renter again via the land border but was denied entry there as well. Obviously at this point he needs a real visa from a Thai embassy. Is it possible to get a tourist visa from the embassy in KL or would he be better off going to Savannakhet?
