    The headline is totally fictional.


    It states that British tourists have been warned about their behavior, implying/suggesting that the warning is about drunkenness, disorderly behavior, maybe not having sex on a beach, kicking people in the back, that sort of thing.

     

    in actual fact, the article goes on in some detail to talk about visa rules and the need to comply with them.

     

    sensational headlines don’t make a story, they make the writer look incompetent 

    I gotta agree with this wholeheartedly. 

     

    Also, when did quoting a bunch of anonymous people and their silly Twitter (now called X) tropes become reporting?

    My daughter (half English/half Thai) was sexually assaulted 2 times this week on a school trip. In one case a boy groped her in the swimming pool, then yesterday she was surrounded by a gang of 4 boys who started to touch her butt and breasts. One of the students in the latter attack had already been 'punished' for taking photographs up my daughters skirt. The punishment was suspension. For this offence his punishment is going to be "isolation" - so he's allowed at school but is supposed to stay away from my daughter. After 2 assaults. 

    In the oldest attack, my daughter was surrounded by boys again and they started pulling on her bra. Two attacks occurred on school grounds and the other two on a school residential trip in Rayong.

    That totals 4 sexual assaults against my daughter - all under school supervision. This is not just happening to my daughter at the school - but the girls are too afraid to come forward because they fear what the boys will do.

    I would like your thoughts on civil/criminal action in this case. At the end of the day - it's sexual assault on a minor. Any good tips on lawyers would be good too!

     

    You sound Canadian. Who else would actually write the word eh? I know, I do and I'm a Canuck.

     

    Go to a lawyer. Then let him/her go to the media and call the Canadian Embassy.

     

    Get the Canadian media involved. Call the Canadian Embassy. The new Canadian Ambassador is unique. She is the first and only Ambassador to a country in which she was born! She is Lao, born here and emigrated to Canada at a very young age. She is the Canadian Ambassador to Thailand, Lao and Cambodia. File a complaint with her. Then go to the Canadian media. They'd run with this and then talk about the school losing face!

  3. Let me put it this way for all of you who seem to defend this murderous thug. 

    Someone was flirting with his girlfriend. So what. 

    If you are secure in your relationship then it doesn't matter who is trying to chat / flirt / pick up / take to bed....your girlfriend. She's either going to go with him or not and you being a jealous Neanderthal is either going to push her away or keep her beside you out of fear. 

    Do you really want a partner to stay with you out of fear? If you do you are evil and likely ticking a few boxes on the psychopathy test. 

     

    On the other hand, would you like to be with a partner who no one ever found attractive enough to flirt with?  If you are, that person is either seriously unattractive or everyone knows you are a jealous Neanderthal who fights because they aren't intelligent enough to deal with normal life situations without resorting to violence. 

     

    Some people have never evolved much past the cave. They tend to do violent things. Sometimes people get hurt, or dead as in this case. 

     

    Throw that murderous thug away for a very very long time.

    I often wonder how the police identify suspects via cctv.

     

    CCTV doesn’t show the names of people depicted, so is it that the police have prior knowledge of the individuals and recognize them when they see them on cctv, or do they wander the streets after the incident and look at peoples faces until they recognize them?

    They only have to locate one of them. Finding the identity of one is as easy as asking locals around the scene. Catch one, a little bit of "persuasion", and the cops easily find the others involved.

     

    You'd have to be crazy to do anything illegal with someone else!

  5. Is the Thai government capable of implementing anything smoothly and appropriately? 

     

    Use Canada as the shining example of the legalization of marijuana. The government did studies for about 3 years covering every situation from every possible angle and talking to every level of authority. They came up with a plan and went through with legalization. It has been smooth and the government is reaping the benefits in tax dollars.

     

    The Thai government wanted tourists to come back. hahahahaha

     

    WTF did they think would happen?

     

    Rhetorical question. They didn't think at all. Thailand!

  6. The legalisation of weed in Thailand was done much the same way all of their important decisions seem to be made. Which is of course, with no proper due diligence, no thought process about the implementation, no care given to timelines and how thigs will roll out.

     

    Legal weed isn't the problem. The problem is the way everything is done there. There's no freaking plan! Everything is done in an off the cuff half-arsed way. The only wonder is that some things actually work.

     

    Canada legalized weed. Where's the problems there? Crickets....it's called planning.
