if she was legal, her work permit is/was ONLY for one specific location, occupation.

It's also impossible for a semi-literate, uneducated, unskilled Thai manual labourer who can't get laid in his own country to make enough money at his job to afford alcohol-fueled whoremongering tours of Australia.Beerinthemorning wrote: ↑Sat Aug 18, 2018 5:44 pm Its impossible for farang to work legal doing menial labour in thailand cut a thai can work menial labour in the west legally, go figure....

Re: Moving to cambodia from Thailand
Not safe, and now Thai immigration knows that you worked in a bar without work permit...Alexandriaclark wrote: ↑Sat Aug 18, 2018 3:38 pm I didn’t. Even think of that Idk how to change it. I’m thinking maybe to just fly into Siem Reap since I’m familar with it and then bus it to a few places what would be the areas of Kampot that you would recommend
You should spend some time in Phnom penh first...

Farangs could only work legally in 5 stars or any expensive place, and even, it doesn't really happen. Anybody else behind a bar in Thailand is illegal, 5 years ago or 10 years ago.

Problem is they only hire there own.
Theres job vacancies here in perth advertising only indian staff or only mandarin speaking staff , or prefer vietnamese/thai.....
This is typical of asians, imagine i goto pattaya and hire all farang staff in my hotel ......
Noway in hell.
But they do it over here in perth on every damn street corner.......
Respect is a two way street, but not for asians
