February 24, 200818 yr Read an article on ThaiVisa about Farangs being asked about their details in Issan. Thought nothing of it until this evening. About 1/2 hour ago, having a drink at my local Noodle Shop - live in P'Lok - I was approached by my neighbour who is a Policeman and asked to complete details about myself and the house I rent. Details required: Name, Family name, Home and Mobile no:, Sex and number of people in the house. No problem, as he also had a list for the complete tambon - about 100 houses - which had been completed as well. Strange - anyone have an idea what is going on? PS We still smoke in my bar
February 24, 200818 yr No problem, as he also had a list for the complete tambon - about 100 houses - which had been completed as well. I don't know what's going on, but unless I misunderstand, when you say he had a complete list for the tambon, then it seems to me he was gathering this information for everyone, both Thai and farang. I would imagine the best way to find out what the list is for would be to ask him.
