While finishing (the ridiculous amount of) documents I came across that a copy of all pages of her passport is needed. Now a Thai passport is very thick (66 pages)! As if a Thai teacher from the countryside can fill that in ten years…
Thai citizens are now allowed to transact with government agencies without having to provide photocopies of their identity card and house registration. This has been announced by the Ministry of Provincial Administration (DOPA) in the Royal Gazette.
Thailand's shocking world of counterfeits
Of course you already know, in Thailand many (brand) products are counterfeit and sold cheaper than the original product. It is obvious that you think in the first place of watches, (sports) clothing, women's bags and (sports) shoes. But the list of counterfeit products is much, much longer.
Bangkok police seize 210.000 counterfeit branded sunglasses
210.000 pairs of eyeglasses and branded sunglasses were seized in a raid on three warehouses in Bangkok's Klong San and Pomprap Sattruphai districts. It concerns counterfeits of well-known brands such as Ray-Ban, Prada, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Burberry and Oakley.
Counterfeit branded goods
The Thai government is sensitive to comments from the media abroad. To keep up appearances, corresponding measures are taken to indicate that what appears in the international press is not normal in Thailand either.
Copy behavior in Thailand
Initially, when people think of copying in Thailand, they think of brand watches and designer clothes. But many other things are also copied, just think of the recreational places with an Italian look. Near the Vineyard, an Italian village is being built with the beautiful name Cita del Como. The purpose is still unclear. Will this be a resort or a new recreational area with shops?
