Because it fits into the law as it exists. make it impossible to deny
I think the Ministry of Interior And the Northern Unit would be a lesson to other provinces as well. which has all Must admit that Foreigners who come to do business in our country must refer to legal regulations. In order to have 49% shareholding in a foreign company and 51% Thai people, it is a law that many ministries must link together. Both the Ministry of Commerce Tax matters and About travel business Many parts are involved in the area. Try to monitor it carefully.
The province has assigned a special task force to be set up, chaired by Captain Adul Chuthong, Deputy Governor of Phuket, with relevant agencies as a committee to arrest many foreigners who have broken the law. If you see a foreigner breaking the law, please report it to Phuket immediately. But the problem is that when you go to the report, there are usually Thai people coming to pick you up. This is the truth It’s a waste like this. When the matter is sent Give it to the relevant agencies to go to the area immediately. It has become Thai people who have come to sit in place of foreigners.
In addition, Phuket Province Set up another committee to inspect public beach areas that are closed which must be opened according to the law. Because in the past the survey did not separate the central roads. There is a title deed attached to the entire area. The principle is not correct, that is, there is no place to vote, so each committee will be appointed. Wherever there is a public road, it must be opened. Where there isn’t any? You must use the method to request space. which he carried with his face until he did not know where to put it I only ask for one thing. If you can’t ask, then buy. Make sure there’s enough of a walkway to go down first. It doesn’t have to be too big. It’s a set guideline. In order to be able to walk down to the beach, it doesn’t belong to anyone. The beach is public use, but walking down the beach Because sometimes the title deed plays out in full length. All obstructions to the beach, which was a matter of issuing title deeds in the past, must be resolved now. must ask for his space If people have questions about any plot, they can check and submit it at the Phuket Provincial Land Office,” Mr. Sophon said.
Police Major General Sinlert Sukhum, Phuket Provincial Police Commander, said that statistics on the number of arrests of foreigners Since the beginning of the fiscal year, there have been over 360 arrests of foreigners who are accused. In the past period from the 5th – 10th, when every unit was mobilized, there were 33 arrests of illegal foreigners or Over Stay foreigners. Working without a license Staying in the Kingdom by giving permission to accept foreign workers without a license to work in drugs, prostitution, divided into Russia 11 cases, Myanmar 5, England 3, China 3, Australia 1, there are all nations that have committed crimes.
Following the initiative of the Governor of Phuket, an operations center has been established to suppress offenses related to foreign business operations. This center will receive initial complaints and can be reported through all areas and the Phuket Provincial Police page. There is an integration of forces from both the administrative departments together to carry out the operation and there will be channels for additional notification via various social media, Line or various channels. which is an advertising cutout Foreigners’ behavior that violates the law can be reported through the aforementioned channels. In which both Thais and foreigners commit crimes, every police station has been instructed to take strict legal action. Initially, there is no foreign mafia.
In the area of Patong Police Station, there is a group of ladyboys in the area. All history has been prepared. Importantly, there are CCTV cameras and cooperation from Patong Municipality.
