Today I tranferred money by Wise to my account here in Thailand using Wise. I do this for many years already, but I noticed that the last months the money transfers are being with held by Wise.

When you check the rates they mention that the money will arrive in 4 minutes, but when the transfer is made it suddenly change to Wednesday, tomorrow. On  Friday 30 May I transferred money to my account and it could not be paid out for Wednesday 4 June too. The reason was that the banks were closed. Today again I contacted Wise and they told me they need time to process the transfer, but that is rubbish of course, as everything is being digitalized. I know that banks are checking more for money transfers, but Wise don't send the money to bank, they do it tomorrow. I am sure they will hold the money to make extra money out of it, no problem for me but be clear on your website and don't promise it will arrive in 4 minutes. A few months back never had a problem, until these last 3/4 months. Remitly is much quicker although a bit more expensive, but I am going to use Remitly until Wise is not withholding the money anymore. I hope those who have the same problem maybe have other options too, and let Wise feel that we don't accept their policy

Got mine last week in seconds via normal bank transfer.

A top Thai news anchor has been accused of engaging in public sexual acts and selling pornographic videos online, sparking a media frenzy. The allegations emerged on Sunday, June 8, via a Facebook page named Tan Pao, which described a high-profile news reporter wearing glasses reportedly distributing explicit content through a secret chat group.

 

The Facebook post suggested that the reporter, often in front of a studio camera rather than on the field, recorded his activities in locations such as petrol station bathrooms and railway tracks. Disturbingly, all this was shared within a covert online group, adding further fuel to the already blazing speculations on social media.

 

Photos purportedly showing the journalist were shared online, prompting a guessing game among netizens eager to unmask the reporter's identity. The images included a naked man in a petrol station bathroom and another exposing himself in a shopping centre. Public curiosity quickly narrowed down the suspects to a few familiar faces in the Thai news industry.

 

Veteran news anchor Sorayuth Suthassanachinda, a prominent figure at Channel 3, was among those named. Known for media charisma coupled with fair skin and glasses, he appeared at the studio post-accusation wearing shorts, playfully showing off his legs to highlight differences with the leaked images.

 

Keeping the spirit light-hearted, another Channel 3 personality, Pasit Apinyawat, joined in with humorous social media posts. Sharing pictures in shorts, his captions declared, “Not me, my legs are a lot bigger!” while maintaining a witty tone about staying indoors away from mosquitoes.

 

Additional named reporters, including Gunchai Kamnerdploy, Phakphoom Phansatit, and Ekapat Choedthammatorn, also took to social media, vehemently denying any involvement and poking fun at the wild conjecture.

 

Meanwhile, Facebook page Jmoi v+ further alleged that the reporter, described as married with a child, may secretly be homosexual, with the incriminating videos now supposedly scrubbed from his online presence.

 

Legally speaking, public sexual acts fall under Section 388 of Thai Criminal Law, penalising public indecency with a fine up to 5,000 baht). Distributing or selling explicit content online breaches Section 287(1), risking up to three years' imprisonment or a ฿60,000 fine.

 

Offering or hosting such materials on public internet platforms could also invite scrutiny under Section 14(4) of the Computer Crime Act, translating to penalties reaching five years’ incarceration and fines of ฿100,000.

 

While the scandal stirs public discourse, the identities remain unconfirmed amidst a swirl of allegations and humorous responses within media circles.

dementia is the only logical explanation...66 years old.

The tourists are scumbags, but as always, the brave thai, kicking to the head when a man is down. That should be prosecuted.

I wonder what they fight about , girls, drugs or just plain drunken idiots wanting to fight I prefer the latter.

And the poster is right, never used to see this, many forms of drugs around now , meth , cocaine and the illustrious dope shops selling unchecked medical weed, that god knows the THC content off.

Maybe they could isolate a designated area for these animals , call it Dope street and have boxing rings instead of pole dancers.

 

these arabs never need a reason to fight.

A daredevil French tourist has found himself in hot water after a series of reckless actions on the streets of Patong caught the attention of Thailand’s national immigration chief. The 23-year-old, identified only as Ali, was apprehended following CCTV footage that showed him running red lights, causing noise disturbances, and riding without a helmet.

 

The brazen joyride quickly attracted the notice of Police Lieutenant General Phanumas Boonnalak, the National Immigration Bureau Chief, who instructed Phuket Immigration to track down the law-breaking tourist. Utilizing CCTV and traffic camera footage, officers swiftly located Ali at a hotel on Phra Mettha Road in Patong.

 

Although the specifics of the arrest were not disclosed, Ali was promptly detained and transferred to Patong Police Station. He faces charges of reckless driving and violating local traffic regulations. Having been fined for his infractions, Ali reportedly expressed remorse and assured authorities that he would refrain from such behaviour in the future.

 

 

 

A Phuket Immigration officer emphasized the bureau's dedication to curbing illegal activities by foreigners to ensure the safety of everyone in the area. “Phuket Immigration aims to stop illegal behaviour by foreigners and is committed to keeping everyone safe, both locals and tourists, to build trust in Phuket as a safe place to visit,” the officer stated.

 

This incident underscores the clear message that foreign visitors are expected to adhere to local laws, despite Phuket's reputation as a party hotspot. Immigration officials have reiterated their commitment to maintaining order and safeguarding Phuket’s standing as a secure and welcoming destination.

 

As Phuket continues to draw thousands of tourists each day, authorities are resolute in their efforts to enforce rules and handle those who disregard them. This serves as a caution to visitors: enjoy the vibrant offerings of Phuket, but remember that laws still apply on and off the road.

So another East European fool aggravated a Thai by thinking he was clever and saying "Ni Hao", thereby making all foreigners look like idiots.

 

Deport all East Europeans from Thailand today and 80% of problems would go away.

 

But yes, farang, is obviously derogatory..

 

Notice the difference, a Russian says Ni Hao because he's a stupid fool, but the deragotary word farang is used with knowing intent.

Was an Italian who made the NiHao, btw...
