Motorcycle rental companies are Much too eager to rent their bikes without doing due diligence ( like handing out statistic sheets stating that Thailand is VERY dangerous for Motorcycle drivers )...or checking for insurance, proper driver license etc.etc.

America will return back to civility once the current convicted rapist and his thugs are out of office.

Looks like you need to prove financial stability and good health in order to get a Visa. Sounds reasonable. However, there are plenty of other countries to travel to . Once the current Administration is Gone - Common sense will once again prevail.

The American obviously wasn't transparent. If he had nothing to hide, why hide in a bathroom and refuse access to his phone ?

Kevin Clayton thinks Casino's are part of the answer ? He's dead wrong. How about eliminating Double pricing for foreigners as a start. How about having more police on the roads to bring down the high accident rates. How about NOT being sued so quickly by a local when someone speaks the TRUTH about a hotel, restaurant or person ( see Big Joke defamation case ).

Replying to Purdey....The Chied DID say there were Bad Apples on the Force.

Living in a 32 to 45sq met condo gets old fast. The walls close in on you after a while. He doesn't mention transportation.

Hasn't the Daily Mail warned Brits enough about events in Pattaya ? And still, they keep coming .

Thailand complies with plenty of requests from the UK to capture and hand over criminals. I would imagine the UK would do the same. The key question is ; WAS a RED ALERT ever issued by Thailand ?

Thai police fail to understand that by being LENIENT of foreigners committing crimes, they are stoking ANTI FOREIGNER emotions. They are also NOT giving Justice to the Victim(s) of these crimes. The man who was popping wheelies that killed a Thai lady is OUT ON BAIL !! Why ? He's a Definite flight risk.

Thailand has virtually NO spousal or family support laws, thus many men have affairs or, just walk out from their families. No one enforces whatever laws are on the books, since Most policemen, lawyers, judges, politicians etc. have mistresses ( geeks ).

Everyone assumes it was too much alcohol. He might also have had other substances in his system ( ED drugs etc. ). Wait for the autopsy results for a better understanding.

I thought Thailand was the Land of NO Refund.....not to mention, NO Prostitution.

Must be another MAGAt with mush for brains.

They can't be serious. Chiang Mai is a nice little city but.....a muddy stream for a river. No intercity transit system. Congested and heavily polluted March thru May. Give me Singapore or Kobe.
