I translated your response but yes, once a government becomes corrupt (are there any that aren't) they start to make a whole mess of laws to either protect their own interests, or to create the illusion that they actually care about the public. However, the old statement of "follow the money" is normally the best way to get to the bottom of things.
Thailand started making long-term visas very difficult to get once they created this new "Elite" visa where people with money can pay $15,000 to never have to worry about visas ever again. Not many people signed up... so now they are eliminating all other choices one-by-one.
