no it's not a problem .if you share the infos. everyday people are wondering where they can cross ,
some people who haven't cross the border , some people who think that maybe it'is possible here or there , but don't know . some other try to guess .
2 or 3 days ago somebody ask if he could cross at Mae Sot . somebody told him that he didn't know , but told the guy ,if Mae Sot wasn't open he could try Mae Sai , like if Mae Sai was next door ! and if Mae Sai wasn't open he could cross all the north east of Thailand to go to Chiang Kong and across to Huay Xai in Laos ..
so I posted today to inform from experience , not from guesses , that Mai Sai border is opened , and if you can supply sufficient documents and pay 10 Us $ . you can get 30 days ...
But some people are still not satisfied with my clear detailed info .
I shared my own experience in details , and I call this FACTS no second hand . sorry if you didn't understand .
if you want to check out my friend's testimony you cross the border yourself . he works right over the bridge . he's done it for more than 20 years . and it can be said than almost everybody who crosses the bridge walks in front of him ! so Yes he's got a good insight about who crosses the bridge .
and when you are a farang it's quite hard not to look like one .
so he knows one or two farangs a day from a crowd of farangs like it used to be years ago . g
John Doe wll certainly tell you that he doesn't know either , except that maybe , if etc...., and he probably will have a friend who even knows less , but can't be trusted anyway , so
there is a John Doe in this group, who knows everything but is not really sure , so he asks his friend who knows even less . I'm sure he'll be answering your question quite soon , he'll tell you he is not sure , but maybe , in case , if , .... perhaps ,
no problem for the 500 baths , it's not even a subject , as you get a receit and anyway there are always 3 or 4 agents in the room. There is absolutely no reason to deal with this matter as if it was suspicious , for it's not .
