ORIGINAL POSTER

Has anyone with Chinese passport successfully applied for DTV at Thai Embassy Kuala Lumpur recently? I'm currently in KL and planning to apply. Need to know if it's feasible or should I go to Hanoi or somewhere else instead. Which city you recommend and which muya Thai club in Thai you recommend

Malaysia is the most difficult embassy to gain approval for the DTV e.g 3-6 months of 500K, 6 months of accommodation booked in Thailand, Jakarta i hear is more friendly to Chinese applications recently. Tiger Eye in Bangkok, and Muay Thai Fever chiang Mai are popular MT gyms and DTV compliant.
