@Malcolm ******

sure, they don't do anything about the indians and all the Africans that overstay. Just walk down soi 4. I guarantee they don't have proper visa.

They ran off the Chinese and now they are crying about it. Europeans are going else where and they are crying about it. But they let in all the Indians which is their main problem. And they just can't figure out why the numbers are at historic low numbers.

visa is different but if I am going to split time then it's not a problem. You can do as many border runs as you want. And your correct it's not fair to come to Japan. Japan and Korea are levels way beyond se Asia. They are the standard of success. Hoping Vietnam will bring back the one yr visa.
