What was your positive experience with applying for a DTV workation visa in Thailand?

@Nick *****

Your last remark is correct, most are doing it for the visa and that is NOT how it is intended, the visa is there to facilitate the possibility to train Muay Thai, and not the other way around. Compare this to non-o marriage which is there to give spouses of Thai citizens the possibility to live in Thailand, but it is certainly not meant to attract foreigners to marry a Thai to get a visa...

well, once again, allow me to disagree. We already discussed this in a previous post and our opinion simply diverge on the matter. That's okay, different opinions usually make the discussion more interesting anyway.

@Nick *****

Of course you have the right to live in your own world where everything is the other way around. No country in the world creates a visa that makes people doing tricks to get that visa. A visa is created to facilitate a group of people they want to have in their country, and what you see here is people not belonging to the target group, just are trying to comply with the requirements to get the visa. Some of them just ask if they really have to attend a course, and you still think that is how it is intended?

so you seriously believe Thailand is currently in a position to 'dictate' its attractiveness to foreign investors and tourists? They are just trying to find ways to attract more source of incomes and investments, as other SEA countries do, and the DTV is just one of their 'tricks'. You're free to 'live in your own world' as well, but no need to always try to pretend that you own the one big truth all the time.

@Nick *****

You are so funny, you just seem to believe this yourself!.

Of course DTV is meant to attract visotors, but not the type that only gets a cheap training for a few months and then just abuse the visa, they are of no value to them.

And allthoug I might live in my own world according to you, at least Google AI is also in my world and does not share your opinion.

"It's essentially a conditional authorization, often placed in a passport, that allows a foreigner to legally enter and potentially reside in a country for a particular purpose"

For a particular purpose, also not a "trick" like you suggest just to get in everybody.

When your idea really was true, why would they have requirements then?

@Luit ****************

I'm glad you think like an AI then, and I'm relieved I don't.

@Nick *****

I not think like AI, but explaining that to you might be useless.

Just go on the way you do, you missed a job as stand-up comedian!

your obtuse words and condescending tone speak for themselves.
