Foreign woman assists Chonburi immigration police as interpreter, sparks mixed reacti
A foreign woman named Varvara Davidova shared photos on Facebook of herself wearing an Immigration Police vest on January 7 while captioning:
“Worked until 2 AM last night as an interpreter.”
The post quickly garnered significant attention, sparking a debate among netizens. Some questioned how a foreigner could serve as a civil servant in Thailand. However, the woman clarified that she was only assisting as an interpreter for the Immigration Police in Chonburi and other agencies, not employed as a civil servant.
The situation led to backlash against the person who raised the question, with many netizens criticizing the inappropriate comment. Some argued that skilled individuals, regardless of nationality, can contribute their expertise in various countries, just as Thais work abroad in specialized roles.
Meanwhile, another group of commenters, particularly Thai men, humorously praised the woman’s beauty and cuteness, with some jokingly expressing a desire to be “arrested.” Others offered words of encouragement for her work, commending her for her politeness and fluency in communication.
The post continues to circulate widely, with many appreciating the woman’s role in bridging communication gaps as an interpreter.
