Many Leaving Thailand for Malaysia

I've been in Penang for over three months now, and I've met quite a few ex-pats coming down from Thailand on visa runs. Most of them are very unhappy with the new rules. Rumors abound, and some of the enforcement is really erratic. People with visas are being turned away at immigration, and everyone is getting very frustrated with not knowing what is going on for sure.

Consequently, I've met several people who have moved down here to Malaysia. The entry stamps are for 90 days, and the Malaysian government doesn't really seem to care how often you go in and out. As one guy said, since he only has to leave every 90 days, he's going to go to Langkawi to lie the beach for a week, and take the ferry in and out of Thailand. He'll call it a vacation.
