Unless you really want to visit Malaysia, why spend time and money there, instead of just crossing the border back to Thailand.

You can't apply for DTV when you get back. You must apply whilst in another country

I assume he refers to when he gets back home, after his 6 month trip...

Do it soon rather than later.

It’s quite popular and the requirements are getting tougher.
