  1. Anyone who has been to or lived in Thailand know it is a daily business. Get their gambling,drinking,whore money with these shake downs. I have been in several taxis that were pulled over. I pay the fine for the driver, they work 12 hrs a day for often just 300 or so baht a day after fuel and rent. I do not know how they ever smile. Do your part!

    Maybe the motorists of Thailand should launch a class action against the police for decades of roadside shakedowns?

  2. Remember the 3 golden rules:

    1. It was like that when I got here.

    2. I didn't do it.

    3. (To your Boss) I like your style.

    how stupid perfect for you sir.

    you are correct, the embassies wont be able to help

    now if thailand actually had a proper ploice force, it wouldnt be that difficult to identify her.... IE using Face Regonistion software against the deceased and from the database of pictures tken from arrivals into Thailand

    RIP

  3. why argue for 100 baht not worth it, just not worth your life. Getting that heated then just pay it and live.

    My thoughts, I know the Thai's and it is just not worth anyone's life.

    The meeting became the forum for the strongest comments yet by the Phuket-based honorary consuls, who urged Phuket Provincial Police Commander Pekad Tantipong to take action and bring to justice tuk-tuk and taxi drivers who assault foreign tourists.

    Good to see this problem being aired once gain. Will progress be made... unlikely.

  4. I live in Bangkok and wanted to go to Phuket but I hear nothing but stuff like this all the time. The dam_n place is unsafe at least that is what it appears to be. What a shame hurting only themselves as people just will not come their.

    Violence like this should not be tolerated regardless of the amount in question. If the authorities don't crack down then Phuket isn't safe. You cannot just kick the shit out of somebody because you lost face and expect to get away with it.

  5. Not much really to do there, I lived there a short while and loved the sun sets, hated all the dam_n boats ruin it. Anyway do not see the worry as stated this other lady is supposed to be a teacher. If that worried have her checked out, that is cheap. good luck!

    what is he worried about??? He is not a baby, he can look after himself. There is no more danger in Koh Chang then anywhere else in the World.You are not talking about great deal of money, accomodation is cheap there. And if the woman is a teacher , she is the most likely decend girl.

  6. I understand opinions and suppose that this might be a great place for farangs to express it. I do say that I am careful not to discuss Thai Politics it is not wise. Thailand is not our country we have no rights to verbalize our thoughts on this subject. Recall recently that Aussie bloke who was out at the Reds meetings I believe, and he was rightfully deported. No place for us to assemble or speak imho!jap.gif

    It seems from the recent polls that more Thais than not would like him to come back. If he does he'll have the Democrat's incompetence to thank. They were handed the reigns and then rode in circles for 2 1/2 years.
