close here, open there….if the right guy owns it gambling is legal

All of the comments here discussing the illegality of playing cards without stamps and gambling (be it actual or otherwise) is 100% true and these laws are vigorously enforced…interestingly, as recently as 2010 there was a full fledged casino operating in Silom complete w video poker, roulette and baccarat tables with cocktail waitresses in branded uniforms

@Michael *******

he’s 100% correct

@Nigel *************

it’s possible in practice also…if you struggle at bank branches head over to their hq branch and you’ll get it done regardless of visa type

@Tom ********

indeed

@James ********

it’s a problem for everyone when people enter any nation unfettered

@Tom ********

I’m all for immigration, we thrive on it and must have it…that immigration needs to adhere to protocol however and when it doesn’t it becomes a threat

@Tom ********

I’m familiar with that number…you may also note that yesterday set the record at over 10k…regardless, illegal immigration is very much alive at our southern border in numbers we haven’t seen in modern times

@Tom ********

he’s not wrong…I lived on the border too…yesterday alone over 10,000 people crossed that border illegally and unfettered in Texas/az/cali…it’s the single biggest issue in the upcoming election

no, only relationship recognized by Thai immigration is marriage
