Did some intern struggle with a maths impairment add a zero on each of those per chance?

Re: HUGE increase in Thai visa fees from NZ
Thaiconomics at work: you want more tourist income? You double the visa fees. Somebody has to make up for the huge loss of income due to the medical herbs now sold freely.

Re: HUGE increase in Thai visa fees from NZ
NZ citizens are still allowed for 30 days under the exemption/waiver scheme though at now fee? Most tourists don't need any longer.
There are also quite a few articles in the last day or so that immigration may be asking for proof of funds to the point of wanting to see cash. That might be targeted at their "poorer" ASEAN cousins though.
Maybe it's the new tactic to cut down on the queues at the airport, the PM apparently is making surprise inspections.

Surely has to be typo, maybe those amounts are actually THB, not NZD?
