Sample answer:
Honestly, believe that it isn’t. Although foreign workers here in our country serve as a key to
invite more foreign investors, we are still all equal. Thus, aliens should also be careful and law
abiding, or they will be deported back to their country or be punished equal with that of a
National.

1. You are a newly hired engineer in a factory of TFT-LCD monitors. You just ar-
rived in Thailand and your employer told you not to go out of your pad alone
without the assistance of a national until you receive your ARC – Alien Reg-
istration Certificate for your own safety. You are trying to convince yourself
to follow what they told you.

Sample answer:
“I know that it’s the best for me. However, I’m getting bored here. I want to go out for a walk
in the park, a minute shopping or a grab of food to bite, I must follow or else I might be in
trouble. The nationals are being hospitable and helpful enough in assisting me and showing
me around, but of course, they can’t always be here for me whenever I feel like going out, since
they still have to attend to other duties or aliens like me.”

2. You’re an alien musician in Brazil, and your ARC has already expired. You’re
planning to go out today to the Department of Foreign Affairs to have it up-
dated, and though you still haven’t had much sleep, you then fixed yourself
and went to the DFA. You tried to recall the things that you should be bring-
ing along with you to have an updated card.

a. old Alien Registration Card
b. Identification cards/passport
c. 2 1x1 I.D pictures
d. Letter of permit to work from the employer
e. 2,156,000 Japan Currency (yen)

Sample answer:
Good morning Madam, this is Kathie Urayenza, I wanted to update my Alien Registration Cer-
tificate/Card because it has already expired yesterday. Yes, I know that I have to pay for the pro-
cessing fee. I have here the other set of requirements; old ARC, passport, Identification cards,
2 1x1 ID pictures and a letter of permit to work from my employer. Here’s my payment for my
application. That will be great! Well, I think I’ll just have to go back here after an hour, and I can
have my updated ARC. Thanks for your help! Good bye. See you later.
