Licensed to beg
The Thai government will make a beggar ID for people that are really poor and really has no money. The ID will be only given to Thai people so all you begging foreigners go home before they arrest you.
The problem is that many use handicapped people to beg and the beggars never get the money. In the new law it will not be allowed to use someone for begging. If you are poor you have to go out and beg yourself.
I think by giving out a begging license the Thai government is admitting not to taking care of their own citizens and if they really want to arrest people for begging they can do it anyway.
