I'll believe it when I hear it from experts who don't have ulterior motives.

American man discovered cuffed and dead in Na Jomtien hotel
David Carradine via auto-erotic asphyxiation. Not really what this seems like for various reasons from the article, mostly him being clothed, but you never know.

US Man Indicted Over Alleged Sex Crimes During Trips to Thailand
Lawfully, it doesn't. And if you read, they were minors from 2018 until 2025 so definitely not 17.

They flag a water damaged stamp yet people get through on fake passports or passports that aren't theirs.

Foreigners Sought in Phuket Shoplifting Incidents

French Man Seriously Injured After Jump from Pattaya Hotel
Big nightlife area where it's easy and encouraged to get drunk and/or high every night mixed with a city full of prostitution that attracts the lonely, mentally ill and addicts. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often.

Did a Thai woman ever put toothpaste on your toothbrush for you?
Same. It was nice but also a little uncomfortable at the same time because I wasn't used to it and of course, like you said, it eventually stops once they know they have you. I think you won't get that same treatment as a foreigner from Thai ladies even at the start of any kind of relationship now.

Thai-Aussie Couple Reports Police Extortion Incident in Pattaya
Dumb move. The next time he doesn't pay his bill, his wife won't be able to bribe him out with no charges. Also would be dumb to rat out the police or whoever handles the bribes after accepting their alleged extortion services if they are planning to continue living in Pattaya. You don't get much dumber than these two.

Israelis are not really a visible minority so while it would probably make them feel unwelcome to eat there after seeing the sign, the owner will have a lot of false positives if they actually try to enforce it.

Indian Man Knocked Unconscious After Argument Over Urinating
Indians don't seem to lack the concept that when traveling abroad, you can't treat it the same as your country. Can't piss and <deleted> anywhere you like, can't walk on the roads while holding hands and block traffic.

I got the same email.- British Gang Busted in Phuket for Robbing American Lawyer

Thanks for the update, glad you got your visa. Hopefully all this will be resolved when I need to renew/upgrade my Elite visa and have it affixed in a new passport in a few years.- Locked out of Lazada and others
Have you refused/returned/not paid for orders recently? Saying wrong email or password even after resetting can mean you are banned/blacklisted from using them. Either by IP, device and address or all.- Korean Man Charged After Attacking 81-Year-Old Brit
These old pensioners are bored and like to stick their nose in everything, need to just mind their own business like we do when they scoop up people's food court leftovers to save money on food.- Elite Visa appointment suddenly cancelled
