Visa and Thailand problem....

Today I used almost the entire day at a Thailand Government office. To get my visa extended. But since I started out with an educatonal visa, then they did not want to give me more than 7 days extension of my stay in Thailand. Think about that the biggest income in Thailand is tourism. Think about that they need tourist money SO much (I used already more than 1 million Thai Bath in Thailand (200.000+ DKK)). But they still refer to 'regulations' and stupid rules. Come on Thailand. So within 7 days I have to leave the country ;(. Stupid rules
