Laughing at the stupid fears that prompt people to take out bizarre insurance policies is all fun and games until the article mocks one that actually sounds rather reasonable: Thai riots. A quick google search will show you that yes, this is a more legitimate fear than being impregnated by a deity or abducted by aliens (I think). I do want to visit Thailand in my life, and no, I wouldn’t buy this insurance, but it’s not like I don’t see why other tourists would consider doing so.
Protip: When a country deports you, they generally mean for you to stay out. Forever.
Say that you were convicted of smuggling drugs in Thailand and sentenced to death. And suppose that sentence was the changed to 25 years in prison. And what if, four and a half years after you got to prison, you were pardoned by Thailand’s king and sent back home to the UK, where you were from? To recap: what if you’d been sentenced to death and then imprisoned in a country, and were later kicked out of it, never to return?
Would you then go back to “tie up some loose ends?” You are probably not a moron, so I’m guessing your answer would be “No.”
