"Phuket and Bangkok also appeared on the list"
Vad är syftet med att göra en artikel om hur hemskt det är med Pattaya som nr 8 på listan?
När Phuket är nr 9 och Bangkok nr 1 men de bara nämns i förbifarten.

Det behövs inte, då de som bestämmer står för våra åsikter
Nu blev det lite tveksamt.
Hur ska man visa att man har samma åsikter som de som bestämmer om man inte får visa dom?
De som jamar med får ju inte en rättvis chans att visa att de håller med de som bestämmer, om de inte får ha samma åsikt som dom.
Du måste tänka på att vi har en demokrati än så länge. Du har väl inte gått händelserna i förväg?

Jag läste den i dagens Bangkok Post men det här ju inte heltfärsk, men vi läser väl numera lite dagligen om insatser och razzior på diverse turistorter mot verksamheter av den typ man tar upp i artikeln, så nog verkar det hända något.

Thailand Immigration Bureau Launches Nationwide Offensive Against Visa Runners
Bangkok, November 13th, 2025– In a bid to safeguard Thailand's borders from exploitation, the Royal Thai Immigration Bureau has rolled out stringent nationwide protocols targeting foreigners who exploit visa-exemption schemes for illegal purposes, including unauthorized business ventures and/or working illegally and cyber fraud operations.
The crackdown, unveiled following a high-level strategy session, introduces tough vetting at entry points and ramps up oversight on extensions and overstays, with penalties including entry bans, fines, and forced repatriation. Officials stress that these steps are to preserve the kingdom's allure as a premier tourist haven while dismantling networks tied to scams, a persistent headache in Southeast Asia's bustling travel corridors.
Presiding over the pivotal gathering was Pol Lt Gen Panumas Boonyalak, the Immigration Bureau's Commissioner-General, whose directives echoed firm backing from Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and National Police Chief Pol Gen Kittirat Panpetch. The session, joined by Deputy Commissioner-General Pol Maj Gen Cherngron Rimphidi, zeroed in on curbing the "visa run" ploy—a cycle of quick exits and re-entries that often conceals deeper criminality, such as call-center rackets preying on global victims or people working illegally without a work permit.
Echoing recent Thai media spotlights on border vulnerabilities, Pol Maj Gen Cherngron explained how such abuses erode public trust and fuel underground economies.
The change draws on intelligence from hotspots like Mae Sot in Tak Province—a notorious gateway for cross-border fraud rings along the Myanmar frontier:
Travelers attempting recent visa-free access more than twice minus a verifiable motive face outright denial at the gate or port of entry. TPN Media notes that there was no window of what "recent" is considered and Royal Thai Immigration says this is by design to stop scammers from gaming the system.. Since January 2025, enforcers have turned away roughly 2,900 suspects nationwide, with special focus given to people entering from Myanmar or Cambodia.
- Border Hotspot Lockdown: Amped-up patrols zero in on repeat offenders and blacklisted individuals, especially via the Mae Sot-Myawaddy conduit, a smuggling artery flagged in dispatches for its scam connections. Deportees from this route get a permanent re-entry red card. Immigration is also paying special attention to foreigners who travel into these border areas or list the border area on their travel information, often taking them aside for interviews to determine the purpose of their visit.
- Extension Audits and Revocations: Local Immigration offices must comb through recent visa extensions, yanking approvals for serial abusers and pursuing legal action that could culminate in permanent blacklisting. They will be looking for people with long histories of regular visa running and who are suspected of working illegally without a work permit or visa in particular.
- Overstay Sweep Intensification: A nationwide dragnet against lingerers, complete with mandatory progress reports from regional units, promises zero tolerance and faster deportations. New AI technology will also be used in tourist hotspots to find people on overstay.
Pol Maj Gen Cherngron candidly addressed potential hiccups, noting that beefed-up interrogations could nudge passport queues by up to 40 minutes during rush hours, with each check clocking in at an average of under 45 seconds. "The ripple might be felt briefly, but it's a small price for fortifying our shores. Genuine tourists have nothing to worry about. Some frequent visitors and travelers who are not connected to scams or working illegally may be advised to get different visa types versus use of visa free programs, which are intended for genuine tourists, not people living in Thailand."
Full operational guidelines and rollout timelines are slated for release on Monday, November 17, 2025, as the bureau gears up for peak-season influxes and begins a major crackdown on visa runners.

Police have launched a nationwide operation targeting foreign nationals who have violated immigration and criminal laws, resulting in hundreds of arrests on its first day. The campaign, titled “Operation Bad Guys Out”, involved coordinated raids across the country beginning at 6.00 am on 20 December 2025. Authorities said the immediate impact was the arrest of 870 suspects in a single day, most for illegal entry into Thailand.
The operation was ordered by the Royal Thai Police as part of heightened security measures to protect public order and national security. Pol Gen Samran Nualma, Deputy National Police Chief and Director of the Centre for the Suppression of Transnational Crime and Illegal Immigration, travelled to Pattaya Police Station in Chonburi to oversee the launch. He acted on instructions from National Police Chief Pol Gen Kitrat Phanphet, with senior immigration officials present at the briefing.
The crackdown followed earlier immigration enforcement between 1 and 19 December 2025, during which officers conducted intensive checks nationwide. On 20 December alone, police searched 161 locations and arrested 870 suspects, including 242 people accused of illegal entry. From 1 to 20 December, authorities inspected 13,394 targets and arrested 13,073 suspects, with 6,500 cases linked to refusal of entry into the kingdom.
Police said the operation focuses on foreign nationals staying in Thailand without permission, those breaching visa conditions and individuals linked to transnational crime or activities deemed a threat to security. Measures include inspections of workplaces, residences and entertainment venues, alongside enhanced border surveillance using intelligence assessments, risk analysis and security databases. The aim is to intercept high-risk individuals at entry points and address violations within the country.
Daily News reported that Pol Gen Samran said the police are applying preventive law enforcement under the rule of law, necessity and proportionality, while respecting human rights. He stressed that the measures are not intended to affect foreigners living legally and peacefully in Thailand. Authorities confirmed that foreign nationals involved in criminal activity or conduct affecting public order will face visa revocation, deportation and placement on watchlists.
Key Takeaways
• Thai police arrested 870 suspects nationwide on 20 December 2025 during a coordinated immigration crackdown.
• A total of 13,073 arrests were made between 1 and 20 December 2025 following inspections of 13,394 targets.
• Authorities said the operation will continue monthly while respecting human rights and lawful residents.
