Correcting misinformation is important. There is no such thing as "IO has always been cracking down...". It's airport and border specific, always has been. I'm simply relying new info about Nong Khai that date max 2 months. The crackdown there is very recent. The crackdown in BKK is ancient. Two different things completely. I'm not looking for help, you completely missed the point of my post. My post is for other runners, not intended to you.
It seems like many had too much to drink tonight. What is so hard to understand? I'm not looking for suggestions. I've been in Thailand for more than half of my adult life. I'm simply warning others of the current ever changing situation. It's now harder to border bounce easy border like Nong Khai. That's it.
I'm in trouble. Might not be allowed back in today. Countrywide crackdown on visa runners, even in Nong Khai. I will have to negotiate in the immigration screening room.
