One more thing thai people like to work with Thai people  they’re much easier with them than they are going to be with you. I know it’s not fair but that’s the way it is in that country.
Are you gonna always hire an agency to do it? Trust me it’s worth a couple hundred US dollars you’ll spend for them to do it for you less aggravation for you
Always smile always be nice. Trust me I’ll get you a long way. You just have to accept the way that they do business and the way that the government runs in Thailand. It is completely crazy but like I said, just smile be nice as to please explain to you in detail just don’t lose your temper because then they won’t give you shit.
