"The tourism industry in Thailand is just so good for me that I don't' need to place advertisements any more as I am already highly listed on all the search engines"!

Staying in Thailand beyond your Visa?  Well, you need to do a visa run.  The Visa run is the one real gripe about staying in Thailand for longer than is usually expected of a tourist, ask any ex-pat what they dislike most about Thailand they will probably retort with 'The dreaded Visa Run'.

Wisut Buachum, director of Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) office in Mae Hong Son said this week that Tourism for Pai district  generated B1 billion for the local economy this year alone.

Mae Sot is a good place to go to extend your Visa though the options for travel arrangements to Mae Sot from Chiang Mai are limited compared to Mae Sai in the Golden Triangle however, if you find yourself in Mae Sot and your visa period is coming to an end it's worth to just re-stamp at the Thai Myanmar bridge just 3kms outside on Mae Sot town.
