pack the suitcase and take it with you if you are so afraid of getting separated of some clothes and the phone charger.

C;mon you are here on holiday, what is the big deal with your belongings,

I decided it’s not a good idea to leave kpg. I don’t see why it should be an issue to give us a tourist visa extension. We can’t travel to samui without getting stranded there and it’s unsafe there compared to here.

I don’t want to get stranded on Koh Samui, when my stuff is on Ko Pha-ngan.

I am in the same boat. My visa is good until April 18th, I still have a regular extension available to me. But I am wondering if they will still want me to bring a letter from my embassy.

You need nothing. But if you do not like to leave this country as requested, you can apply for a 30 day Extension of Stay at the Immigration Office on Koh Samui or in Surat Thani.

You are asked to do this during the last few days of your admitted to stay period. Thanks.
