That is why almost every article here is about the bad things Farangs/Foreigners do abroad in Thailand.

They added the bla bla bla bla bla and for the rest nothing changes?

A better way costs money which they don't have. So they cheapest way is burning the fields. Which they will keep on doing.

when i am in Thailand the snot/mucus in my nose turns black within 24 hours after arriving. Their lungs must be black as can be. Do they really care about air quality? I guess it is a lot bla bla bla bla for the media and doing nothing in reality.

Maybe they really don't care? I always wonder how these bikes and cars can drive around. In my country they would have been set aside and not allowed to drive any further from that point on.

Losing face can never be a free-ticket to kill somebody. They should grow up and act like a adult instead as a pissed off child.

That is why he was arrested..... 😉

How many locals are arrested and get into the news?

I just can not believe this happens in such a way when you overstay a few days. There must be something more to it.

One drunk Foreigner (Farang) driver and its big news! How many intoxicated Thai crash every day? Where are they in the news?

Lately AseanNow looks like it is only focussing on the "bad" farangs and all the fuzz they are creating. It feels like the hubble telescope is zoomed in on them. I wonder why they still want to expand the tourism industry with all that negativity about their visitors. I stopped reading more and more these kind of articles as it does not contribute anything to the positive view i like to keep about Thailand and their citizens.

This kind of news is never good for foreigners and for Thailand. We all know stories of taxi drivers scamming their customers and one bad apple infects the whole lot. But bringing news like that this way also does more harm than good. It feeds the ones that hate the foreigners and it feeds the ones that hate the way foreigners are ripped off. Neither will win this discussion. Is it not just a way to draw negative attention by the news media earning their money from additional advertisements?

No probably he is a foreigner with a invisible ATM tag on his body?

Why? what the hell is this person doing? Is she insane? Bizar!

Why are they surpised? If you have a debt at the bank of course they will first take care of the shortcoming and if something is left you will get the remaining part. that is how it works. Instead of being happy she now has less debt complaining about the missing 6000 baht? Bizar and weird.

You are absolutely right.... But drawing attention to something this way that would have just disappeared into thin air when left as is.... Now he is the "owner of a restaurant that pursues people when posting a negative comment on social media about his business". That he is right in doing this will soon be forgotten and does not matter anymore. It is the negative message that stays in peoples memory. People in the long run will not remember what the woman complained about, but they will remember what the restaurant owner did. He better had accepted a public apologie and handle all in peace instead of going to court about some "missing income" which he never can proof. It is better to make the end result a positive than a negative one. I have seen similar examples happening elsewhere (not in Thailand). And it is always the owner off the business that draws the short straw because he is making the issue bigger than it actually is. Although he has every right in doing this. Sad it escalates this way. No winners here.

How is the driver suppose to see the cyclist? he is overtaking the cyclist.... so he has to know what is on his left side otherwise he should not drive a bus at all as he is a bad and not qualified busdriver. And he has enough mirrors to see what is going on on his left.

The new highspeed train between Bangkok and Nong Khai will run at halfspeed..... 😉 or they will exclude products from China and probably Russia 🙂

What is in it for China? What is their advantage?

What is the advantage for China?

How many tourist does Bhutan have in a year? Max 400.000 !!! What a joke!

Close the country instead of complaining every day about the foreigners! Land of smiles? No way!
