Hope they also have their traveling insurance also , Thai immigration should check tourist traveling insurance at check point

Travel insurance has exclusions relating to incidents of terrorism.

So I don't think travelers would be covered.

come on, guys, give the ozzies some credit.

they have successfully obliterated so many traces of own their attrocities - surely they can help the thais to do the same.

Would you care to expand your theory on what / when / where just so we all understand.

not a theory, i am afraid. right at this very moment the australian government is committing crimes against humanity under the guise of 'border protection'. in times to come, when what is being kept from us now by abbot and his boys, citing 'no comment on operational matters', we, the australians, will stand just as dumb and gullible as the germans did after ww2 when they claimed: 'we knew nothing'. the evidence is everywhere, even on our very own 'abc' websites.

they have done all the expanding that you might possibly need to change your cocky attitude.

You sound precisely like a member of the 'better to sit on your hands and watch them drown' club, under the guise of 'compassion'.

Lovely gesture by the Aussie government but I think the Thais may be too proud to accept such assistance

A naive gesture by the AFP unless they know something the Thai authorities don't, in which case they should reveal such information.

The AFP are among the best of the best when it comes to forensics.

The Australians can leave Thai politics to one side, the Thai's cannot.

Want see TAT's spin on this.

They say possible gas explosion/faulty LPG tank.

Can sometimes be a terrific mix!

I feel terrible for what the families and friends of the 2 innocent victims must be going through right now following such a horrific event.

Ahmad Jauhari Yahya, the Malaysia Airlines CEO, said the plane had no unusual cargo, though he said it was carrying several tons of mangosteens, a purple tropical fruit.

Who's doing a background check on the mangosteens?

A search on Aliepress (.com) yields a new 1300cc jet ski can be purchased from China and shipped to Thailand for US $5,848.14 or about 179,000 baht.

Do you also drive a Chinese car or Chinese Motorbike ? lol, These Chinese things differ a lot of that what we are used to!

I disagree. The Germans now manufacture Mercedes motor vehicles in China.

Saw the headline and spat coffee all over the front of my shirt. Now I'm going to have to race home to change.

Oh well, it was worth it for the laugh.

Crap day to visit the forensic museum, me thinks. Bound to get run over by a BMW.

Did he come to Bangkok for the suckling pig or the woman?

I'm glad that this particular infidel, didn't have to endure a flight while sitting next to that man!

In my opinion every government in the world should place a $10 per pack tax on cigarettes, cigars, chewing tobacco, etc. I don't care if smokers kill themselves but I do care that they throw their butts and the empty packs on the ground. At least the government could make some substantial revenue.

Using your logic, after I've paid your proposed $10 tax per packet in Thailand, I guess I then become entitled to discard my cigarette butts on the road or footpath and I can freely dispose of my empty cigy pack in the Chao Phraya, because I've paid for the privilege?

Australians!

So what does this supposed to mean

It means that his spell check is working.

Can someone just operate an armour plated bus service and be done with the whole matter.

I don't see anyone here advocating his release.

If he was Australian (for arguments sake) and received a royal pardon, he would not be re-arrested and re-tried once he arrived back home, so why are some trying to hold Israel to higher levels of accountability? Hmm?

He has a head only a mother could love.

We can't afford it based on last nights budget.

There are plenty of qualified life savers here in Oz and clearly a large shortage on Phuket.

Why don't the authorities put out the call to volunteers from Australia (maybe offer free accommodation or subsidised airfares)?

Problem solved (for this year at least).

Someone's got to put up those red flags!

is this the man who wears a balaclarver on his head when on the news in hand cufffs. is this the best picture we can get. why does he get specail treatment. i have never seen that before in Thailand.maybe that is is real face just looks like a balacalaver maybe that picture is his mask. maybe he is some freak like out of a bat man film

The caption actually suggests that the photo is of the deceased, not the alleged murderer!

The last time I checked, Phuket's beaches were a major draw-card.

Time for the greedy authorities to spend less time promoting the destination and put more money into ensuring the safety of it's lifeblood, the tourist!

Just think of the money and the time and resources they are going to have to invest once the authorities go into full damage control mode after the first couple of deaths occur this season on 'once patrolled beaches'.

Shame.

If you think these announcements are great news, just wait until next week!

I have it on good authority that the Thai telco's will be unveiling their latest technology, 'Dial up'.

more aussie bogans heading over to the LOS. thats all we need. Cant they go to bali to surgically improve their looks.

No one is holding a gun to your head. You could always leave if you're disgusted by Aussies. Just saying.
