Right. And even if "they were given 30 days" wouldn't that be the validity of the visa? They'd be stamped in for 60. Damn, I wish one of those people would show up around here and offer some info :)
Very cool. That is actually a different thing, though. This is a regular 30 day extension of a tourist stay. But it saves me the hazzle of going to the government complex which is basically in Isaan.
