Numbers in Thailand always looks good for those who presented them. The TAT always have more tourist than the hotel branches who like Government support etc.

Immigration In north east of Thailand, also came out with some numbers of how good they do their work.

Just read it as information, it seems they do work even if the numbers are smaller of even bigger. Be careful out there.
