Where can I find Kellogg's Cornflakes Mango in Thailand?

John *******

What should I know about the Tourist Visa application process in Penang, especially regarding guarantor, accommodation proof, and dress code?

John *******

Short pants are fine, as long as you wear long trousers. Write where you will spend your first night. Write that you have no guarantor. That they ask for a fax number tells you how closely they’ll be scrutinising your answer. 😉

What are the requirements for a Thai person applying for a UK tourist visa, and does she need to have 500,000 baht in her account?

John *******

That’s some twisted logic there. Tourists from anywhere are not in a blanket sense ‘less fortunate than ourselves’. Those who clearly are less fortunate than us are people who risk their lives to get to a country and arrive with next to nothing.

You seem to resent that, yet then tell us how ‘modern society should be ashamed’.
