There have been 10+ hours from various clever clogs,like you, rubbing it in for likes, saying the same old thing, like its not been said before. The point has been made. Having said that there have been eejits recommending online IDPs on this worthless thread, another scam. And actually there are countries that administratively convert driving licences, so it's plausible to believe some with an established Australian licence to believe it can be converted to Thai. The OP is likely naive, rather than as you alleged, corrupt.
