you are right epi sasa, i traveled to qatar via bangkok thailand. because at first when my friend bought me a visa (business visiT VISA) I was alarmed full of questions, why business vist? why not tourist? i asked my friend why? and he said it is the usual visa they apply for filipinos who want to come here to look for a job. what i did, i went to travel agencies and asked informations regarding my issued visa. they gave me precautions and advice on what i should do. i may not be fully equipped when i went to immigration but at least i am more than half-equipped when i faced the officer. it was thailand where i was going to. and kalas, i was ready with 400 dollars for incase they asked how much do i have to tour thailand, but they didn't ask. i was thankful.. it needs a careful plan and a little common sense if you really want to come out from the country in a deceiving way..
