Well, to be fair, most stuff here IS settled by a cash payment, that's part of the social/legal culture. I wouldn't have called it a "bribe".
What would you call it? greasing the wheels? LOL

Another Big Brother rip off.They got people using cards/digital during covid.I pay for big things [airfares etc] by credit cardbut I have reverted to using cash as much as I can in Australia and have always used cash in Thailand .My bank charges an international fee plus a crap exchange rate,so I ain't using card unless an emergency .

Looks like a grey nomad from the blurred picture. Charge & deport the drunk old fool, ban him for 5 years and cancel his retirement visa. Seems every day it's the grey old nomads making the news for the wrong reason.
39 year old grey nomad. ROTFLOL

And how do you think they should be dealt with?
They were informed they were in the wrong and therefore returned and paid the bill.
Also, before we all gather for the stoning, we haven't heard the flip side of the argument, or aren't you interested?
Where's the fun in that? "Asean Now" members have made their decision. It's only the punishment needs to be decided on

That's always been the case. Low class destination.
I'm driving almost every day in Samui, there always a steady flow of tattooed, shirtless, no helmet scum around me, trying to break the road rules in every possible way. I feel that I'm living in Thai version of Mt Druitt or Blacktown.
It's sorry to see the way Thailand has gone down. It always attracted low lifes but these days they seem in epidemic proportions

The Thais have always focused on quantity. and numbers through the immigration counters.

Likely the two Russians referenced in the article will apologize and get a small fine. But I doubt we will ever hear about it
Has the Swiss Doctor kicker been deported? It all went quiet about him. Maybe his money is talking.

Has the Russian woman had her visa revoked and been blacklisted? Need to have exactly the same treatment for her as for the Swiss doctor kicker, who got what he deserved.
BUT has he got what he deserves? Unless I've missed something? I've heard nothing about him for awhile has he been kicked out ,blacklisted or is he laying low making his money talk until it all goes away?

Geez, let's wait until we get both sides, of the story.
In NZ it is reported that the guys were protecting themselves.
But as usual, on here, we get the "hang the farang" attitude. Guys, Thai police are not law abiding people, even Thais will tell you that.
Wait ? Asean now members don't Wait for facts. Where's the fun in that ?
