How does Thai Lion Air circumvent the Thai law which prohibits any foreigner pilot from operating domestic flights in Thailand?

Are all TLA flights international?

Or do they schedule all foreigners to operate international flights only?

I heard Thai Lion Air is "basing" pilots employed by Lion Air Indonesia in Bangkok to circumvent the law. Any truth to that?

Or did DCA abolish this law?


Thailand has a law that prohibits any foreigner from the following professions:
Taxi driver
Tuk tuk driver
Farmer
Pilot of domestic flights...

... there is more I can't think of right now.
