It sounds to me that Meow was cheating on her husband all along, and didn't want to get caught. Any rapist is stupid, but could one be THIS stupid?

Because Thais love a reason to be in a lynch mob when they have no knowledge, reason or right to be doing so.

While part of me doesn't want to promote his channel by pasting this link👇🏻the winning part of me wants to say how really fckn annoying this guy is, especially his voice/accent. https://www.youtube.com/@CBMedia404

But how many jobs are done here by Cambodians and Burmese because those occupations are 'below' them? It's only fair if this law applies both ways.

So, only the Frenchman was suspicious... but not the Russians? And as many have already posted, how about ALL THE THOUSANDS of Somchais who modify bikes yet get away with it?

DTV is my first choice. Marriage my second.

After 24 years on a NonB I have been on 60 day stamps since May 2024. I just got back for my 8th time, and although the IO was a bit quiet and slow, I showed her a flight out and she stamped me in for 60 more days. I don't expect this to go on, and I plan to get a proper visa in a month or two. Each time I leave, I go out for several days (sometimes more than a week), always by plane and to a variety of countries (Japan, Indonesia, Vietnam, Maldives and Taiwan).

We have seen a trend of these stories recently. To me at least it appears that whoever's publishing them is looking to sensationalize things that are either not special or might not be true. I agree on the use of pics, as well. #waitingformyholiday 🙄

Scumbags come from all backgrounds, countries and income levels, so how can this possibly have anything to do with the visa free nonsense mentioned in the article?

They're all on here, ready to tell you about it.

Without me having to scroll through 53 pages... A friend mentioned that this visa only allows for a stay in Thailand of no more than 180 accumulative days per year. I was under the impression it was 180 days per stay, and you can effectively leave and re-enter to get another 180 days within the same year. I would like to be able to spend approximately 10 months per year here, in stays of 2-3 months at a time. Thanks in advance for your input.

Helluva boyfriend to allow that!

Is there no air pollution at/around the kids' houses? So to avoid it, all the families will need to turn on air con to filter the dust and stay home to babysit their kids. Surely schools have air con. But it's too little, too late as always here.

Do any of you guys have first-hand experience with the digital nomad thing? I thought it was show 500k and some evidence of your job for 5 years of up to 180 day stays, This 5.4/1.8 BILLION Baht over three years for the employer sentence in the OP confuses and worries me.

Ok, if we're going to compete and not bother to read/notice that this poor lad was FREEDIVING, then I'm an ex Navy Seal SAS KGB frogman Nitrox TriMix rebreather instructor trainer trainer, with 9,000,000 dives. Oh, and I trained doctors in all specialities. My Diploma is from the University of Facebook.

From what I read, this young lad had just completed a FREEDIVING course, which is not scuba. Anyone can die, at any time, including - young healthy people - people who recently had the Covid vaccine - people who upset Koh Tao locals - people who get electrocuted by dodgy wiring - scuba divers of any age, even after a safe dive - people who don't follow AN forum rules - people who disagree with some AN members🙃

Freediving and scuba diving are not the same thing. How he died, and what activity he was doing at the time, is important to know.

EVERY time I order Subway, the process is as follows - I choose my sandwich - they make it in front of me - they tell me the price - I pay

Sorry, but at Subway they tell you the price AFTER they have made your sandwich, with the toppings. Unless you have a standard sandwich without any extras, it's impossible for the staff to know how much it will cost.

I go to that exact branch every time I fly out of Phuket. Yes, it's a bit more than Subways in the street but there are reasons for this. How this English woman could imagine that 'add this, and some more of that' wouldn't add up seems weird. And jeeez she must have an appetite to add what she did. Sadly, her accent suggests that she's from the lower classes on not far from my home.

I hope that the several posters on this thread who mentioned brake failure or anything to do with 'brakes' never get to pilot a speedboat, or any boat for that matter. Let's really hope that their comments are tongue in cheek.

Good old Daily Fail calling it a HORRIFIC speedboat crash. Clicks sell!

The (high) target amount of money to get his body back seems to have been calculated very quickly, as well. I would have thought a grieving family would have other things on their mind than working out t he exact cost, and setting up a GoFund me or whatever.

Shouldn't this thread be in the jokes section?
