The official website isn't very good, many people can't get it to work.

If you are from a country that needs a visa in this case, as much as I normally avoid doing so, I recommend using an agent. They cost 20-25 USD.

... & then they act surprised when a tiny number of foreigners act out in frustration at the constant scams & racism on the odd occasion then propagandize using such odd occasions to further justify underhanded treatment..! :/

Imagine what a paradise it would be without all of the wasteful corruption destroying efficiency & development...

Do you think you're in Buckingham palace?

Age doesn't always denote wisdom. There's a balance between being too cynical & wearing rose colored glasses as both are misguided. There's good & bad, so just roll with it.

It should be pretty obvious that the majority of natives in the region have a low IQ. I could see that easily in my first day here. The evidence is everywhere.

Yes, IQ testing measures certain types of intelligence. It is accurate in what it measures.

I know a number of professional Thais who are very competent who acknowledge this difficult issue for the country.

From what I've seen, a lot of the ruling class of Thais look down on the rest of their citizens & use general low IQ as a justification for nepotism, corruption, etc... which really holds the country back as obviously not all poor or middle class Thais have low IQ, & not all ruling class Thais have high IQ.

That's not what I was talking about. You seem to be new to the region.
