I interview Matt from America who tells us about his deportation from Thailand and how he ended up spending time locked up in a Chinese prison.
Matt moved to Thailand over 12 years ago. He started teaching in Chiang Mai but after a dispute with his school about his visa Matt found himself on visa overstay. What led to Matt’s deportation? Well… let’s just say the Director of Matt’s school had something to do with it.
Before he was deported Matt had met a Chinese woman in Thailand. He decided to move to China, got a job as a traveling teacher for a Chinese CEO in the oil and gas industry and settled down for a life in China with his Chinese partner.
Matt eventually opened up two successful businesses in China but things didn't go well and let's just say Matt got into legal difficulty in China where he faced 5 years in prison. #thairishtimes #thailand #bangedupabroad
