I can confirm this as I just talked to the officers in the Chiang Rai Immigration Office at Central Plaza. In fact when I was translating for my friend he told me without being asked that border runs now are unlimited. You have the option of paying 1900 for extension or do a border run if you are near a border. No more twice a calendar year bs, all started from the 15th of July. And before a smartass comes in and tells me all this is valid until an officer at the border informs you that this will be the last time you come into the kingdom this way, yeah, even my 5 year old neighbour's daughter knows this. My advice is this, enjoy it while you can, because thailand is thailand.

@Shar ******

may I ask, what difficulties did you encounter when applying for a visa?

@Bis ****

your indonesian wife will cut your janchok off if you dared. Wkwkwkwkwk

Up to THEM.

@Tod ********

2 free entries by land per calendar year cancelled will just mean more people milking the system for longer periods of time. As if we dont know many people are already starting to make plans on how to milk it till its dry. Anyway, we will just have to see if this is a one off case of getting stamped in more than twice a calendar year or they really scrubbed the old rule out.

We will just have to see if this is a one off case or many others get it. Too early to make any conclusions, just too risky for people that are planning to do this.

You asking a jealous trolling bunch of farangs... Come here, the important ones will welcome you. They trolls? They wouldnt dare do jack even if they are in your face. Live your life, welcome to thailand.

@Michael *******

nah, ask them. I have mamy singaporeans telling me that.

@Michael *******

Malay food comes from the malays. Chinese food comes from the chinese. Indian food comes from the indians. Malaysian food is one big fusion. There is no laksa debate, every state has their own version from Johor to Penang to Sarawak and Singaporean laksa sucks period.

@Michael *******

no probs with that, its a matter of taste. Whats Malay food though?😀
