Yes Sir I know Thais can cross border to Myanmar. And I am not allowed. Yet a Thai is a foreigner if outsided of Thailand.

Technically we both are foreigners but different rules apply to us. That's all I am saying.

Actually if I would have a discussion with a burmese IO and he would be telling me a Thai is not a foreigner in his country...

I would not argue with him. I would think ok he dosn't speak english well. So he dosn't know the definition of the word foreigner.

But I am very surprised you don't understand words of your own language. I assume english is your native language. But maybe I assume wrong

@Paul ******

I would not dare telling any IO anything.

All I know anybody being in a country one is not a citizen of is a foreigner. That's all I know regarding our "discussion"

I know Thais can cross border to Myanmar.

Yet they are foreigners once they set a foot on burmese soil.

IO might will not consider them as foreigners but technically they are

@Paul ******

I didn't provide any info. I said PROBABLY. So it means I don't know.

Sir do you actually speak english?

You seem to have problems understanding words and the meaning of it

@Miguel ******

The code at the bottom of first page is important

When they swipe the passport through the reader.

I doubt they will even look at the cover

@Paul ******

Yes Sir yes I always believed you but a Thai is still a foreigner in Myanmar. With privilegues obviously.

The word foreigner has a clear definition regardless what you or burmese IO thinks

Definition foreigner:

a person not native to or naturalized in the country or jurisdiction under consideration

You can continue writing long texts taking everything out of proportion explaining me what Thais can do in Myanmar. How welcome they are etc.

They can be invited for lunch, dinner and whatever by burmese IO.

Still technically they remain foreigners.

I am certain you know exactly what I mean. You just want to argue.

No problem to me I will just copy paste the definition of the word foreigner again and again.

@Paul ******

Yes Sir you explained the rules.

Yes the rules are different for ASEAN citizens and probably indians too.

I believe you burmese IO will consider a thai as a brother and not a foreigner.

Still you cannot argue about the definition of a word.

I happily post it again for you:

Foreigner meaning

a person not native to or naturalized in the country or jurisdiction under consideration

@Paul ******

That's exactly what you doing Sir.

You give long explainaitions why thais can cross the border and who think who is his brother and who is not.

Fact is the word foreigner has a definition.

a person not native to or naturalized in the country or jurisdiction under consideration.

@Paul ******

Again it is not relevant how the IO operates and who is a foreigner to him.

Also not relevant who got privilegues from who will not get.

Fact is:

Foreigner:

a person not native to or naturalized in the country or jurisdiction under consideration

@Paul ******

I agree. But a fact remains a fact😆

for·eign·er

a person born in or coming from a country other than one's own.

@Paul ******

Yes Sir. Google it yourself what the word foreigner means. I copy paste it for you already.

You can laugh all you want. A fact is a fact
