Hey guys! 

How hard is it to get a single-entry tourist visa in Jakarta? I'm wondering whether it's worth trying there, because I have a lot of Thai tourist visas in my passport, and somewhere I noticed that it's a difficult place for people like me. ;) If not there, what country do you recommend? In Malaysia, I took visas in KL and Kota Bharu. Is Singapore ok? Maybe Penang in Malaysia?  

Thx for help! :)

Whether you manage to get a tourist visa somewhere or not I suspect actually entering Thailand is going to be your biggest challenge given your history

I have my own tricks that allow me to increase my chances of getting in, and they have worked so far, but if they fail, then I'll have to go back to school haha! Education visa. 😉

oh deer, another one who has nothing of substance to say, but has to add a few words to show his superiority. Don't you feel bad wasting your time on this? Unless it's to boost your ego? PS. Don't judge people you don't know....

No personal experience, but the Thai embassy at Jakarta has a reputation of being very difficult for foreigners.

For Singapore you would apply online through their special system and you would have to be approved before they will let you make an appointment to attend the embassy.
