With Taipei too, i had an interview. They are very similar questions basically about your application. With Laos you need to open your bank app show your balance,, soon after you will be approved. You can find posts about the interview in Laos.
Other Anons have dropped the similar entitled story being from Europe etc. should mean an easy exit,, no questiosn asked. His ending ",Thais so quickly forgot what happened to them when Covid-19 hit. They quickly forget how important we are for their economy." speaks volumes to the level of disrespect, ignorance he has for LOS.
