    Thank you, Danmairen. I am aware that rules are in place for a reason. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, my question was on how to get around them. The options you have listed are not immediate options for me.

    My L visa will run out before I am able to get an X visa, if I were to choose that route. I have been unable to find a job which will provide a Z visa.

    Any other suggestions are welcome.

    I arrived on a 90 day visa, and I'm 60 days in to it. I'm looking for either a renewal/extension or a brand new visa. I understand that after 90 days the options are limited. I can no longer go to the visa place near the PSB to renew beyond the 3 months.

    Do I really need to go out of country and reapply for another tourist visa?

    I have heard that tourist visas can be extended in 3 month chunks (turning my 3 month into a 6 month) if you find the right visa company. Anyone have any personal experience with some in the area?

    What about suggestions on any alternative methods I should be thinking about?

    thanks in advance to all of you -

    I hate to add on to the feeling of being watched, but I would love to speak more with you both, TheSwedishGuy and Tonyaod. I am a filmmaker in the area and I was hoping to get a few more interviews about the subject (you would not have to be in front of the camera if you do not wish). I am very interested in speaking with the both of you, as you both bring up the great level of complexities of the issue. Speaking with both of you would be invaluable, if you are both willing to provide me with a few minutes of your time to speak more about this, feel free to e-mail me at lathamjones [at] gmail [d o t] com. Thanks so much!!
