Surprised to see the police presence there. It used to be legal to release those into the air until some complaints caused them to be banned. One has to wonder where he even bought it and if it was purchased inside Thailand. The sale should be made illegal also if they are illegal to use. I hope the kid learned some kind of lesson. Clearly he has no respect for any authority. Or he must have been watching how the Thai kids get away with everything and thought he could as well.

What a stupid comment to make to try and justify the attack. Anyone who has been to Lopburi and tried to get within a foot of a baby makes them run away. Let alone handling them. Being protective, yeah possibly, but not handling them for sure.

Yep. clearly the man stuffed himself head first into the drainage pipe and got stuck with legs protruding. Must have lost his gold in the drain and tried to dig it out. hmph.

I suggest you have a sleep test done at the hospital. A few thousand baht for a room overnight and a couple thousand for the test. I will explain why. For a couple years I would wake up in the middle of the night and be unable to sleep for another hour or 2. I thought maybe noises or needing to go to the toilet was the reason. I mentioned it to my doctor and they began testing me for the reasons. I tried sleeping pills and tried antihistamines and even tried CPAP machines that push air into my mouth while I sleep but nothing changed. Finally, I agreed to a sleep test in the hospital. It turned out that my breathing would stop many times an hour and that would wake me up. They call it sleep apnea. X Rays showed I had blockage in my nose and throat. I just recently had surgery to clear the blockage in my nose and throat. Prior to the surgery they tried to get a camera inside through my nose. They were unable to do so and later told me that my airway was blocked 80%. I never thought this could have happened. I breathed normally I thought. But in sleep the position of the body and the way you breathe changes. Throat becomes more relaxed. Since the surgery, I have been able to sleep all night a full 8 or even 9 hours without waking up. Whereas usually i was awake within 3 or 4 hours. So perhaps you should consider what I wrote here and find a serious approach. A sleep clinic can not help you if they do not know the cause of your problem.

I do not see what is your point. What excuse is there for the driver to come out of the car kicking and punching him to begin with? I seriously doubt the foreigner hit the driver inside the car. There is no excuse that can be said that justifies what the driver did initially. As for the continued beating, the foreigner may have done things that led to continuing hitting him and getting a weapon (the signs) but even still, the foreigner is unarmed and mostly defending himself. A taxi driver must be prepared to accept if a passenger wants to cancel the ride or change the destination and to do so without violence. This driver needs to be sent to prison for assault with a weapon with intent to cause bodily harm. Let him rot in a jail cell for a few years for losing his temper and then attacking the foreigner.

Something really needs to be done about this gang problem in Pattaya. The police make arrests only on the worst of what they do but fail to address the real problem. Why aren't parents held accountable for those that are out late in the evening drinking or racing or causing problems?

In Pattaya really? Perhaps that is the only time or the best time to catch some of the tenants at home and with money in their pockets.

I would tend to agree with this. Usually, worgeordie has some good comments. But in this case I think he has been watching too many leftists news outlets that are trying to undermine the legitimacy of Trumps selections for his aides. There is nothing Muisk can do without Trumps approval. So to say he is acting like the PREZ or VP is ludicrous. Trump would never allow that to happen anyway. He is power hungry and craves to be #1 in office. I do believe Trump listens to Musks' advice and even acts on some of it. But that is the extent of Musks' influence.

What a tragedy.. Not so hard to believe though. I was there yesterday not far from this beach with my own family and kids. The waves were up to a meter high. I had to constantly watch my kids even playing near the shore. I banned them from going in past their knees with strict warnings not to go out into deeper water. It should have been easy for the parents to see as I did that there were strong waves and an even stronger undertow.

Typical Thailand. Something bad happens and they immediately say all need to be checked immediately. What ever happened to regular fire safety checks annually or semiannually. After the news settles down and a few checks are done. All will be forgotten and the normal routines of no checks or bribing someone to pass a check will begin again until the next major incident.

They should have taken the dogs to a shelter to await execution. The fact that they continued to attack even after the owner called them back shows they have a taste for blood and will attack again in the future. They need to be put down.

When i was still in America I thought I would not want to live past 60-. But here in Thailand I have changed that. Now I do not think I want to live when my pecker stops working. If that stops working it means I am too old for anything else as well. I surely do not want to be strapped to a bed without being able to use my pecker when a pretty woman is next to me. Sickly or with injuries my pecker has always worked and always made me feel better at the time. Without that it seems to me that life without using my pecker will be pure torture. Just waiting for something to happen that will let me die quietly and quickly. Better if I do not get so old that I spend my days and nights suffering without any comfort or joy or good feeling inside a woman.

At first reading it did not seem to be molestation. a kiss on the cheek and a touch to the stomach is not necessarily molestation if it was done once. Thai teachers form a close bond to students and I have seen the kids themselves pushing themselves into Thai teachers. Even to foreigner teachers. But for this teacher to do it many times and to many girls. That is a serious problem with molestation even so innocuously done that can lead to even more. And the fact that one student claims the teacher touched her non-existent boobs at 8 years old makes a serious problem waiting to happen. I am not so sure the man could be charged unless he did these things with a sexual intent. But the police should intervene before something worse happens and the school should dismiss the teacher from working with kids. Clearly this man has no thoughts for his actions nor the ages of these poor kids. I also think if these young girls complained then this sort of activity has happened on more than one occasion for each girl. The man clearly needs to be taken away from kids and perhaps even locked up.

Because all the weaker ones have been killed in the battlefields. Except for N. Korea. They will require more troops from N. Korea to fill their ranks that have been killed already. Russia has not shown any strength at all. They should have easily taken the UK given the size difference between both countries as well as their weapons capacity. Russia is about 28 times bigger than Ukraine. Ukraine is approximately 603,550 sq km, while Russia is approximately 17,098,242 sq km, making Russia 2,733% . I think this war, has been going on for 3 years simply because it makes Russia money and reduces their population. They do not gain anything by winning the war.

Woke people

What do you think? They were found in a rented room.

some improvement. Taking only the foreigner prostitutes off the streets. What about the hundreds of Thai women on the sidewalks offering sex services for outrageous prices? Ohh wait. They have already paid their dues and will be allowed to continue until such time as the police need to notice them again. Although I do not agree with the many foreigner sex workers there. The police should be fair and arrest all of them and make charges against them all. Not just the foreigner ones.

Makes me want to make sure i leave all my money in my room. Can almost see the greed in their faces and expectancy to make a lot of money.

They must be given a chance to exhaust all legal recourse.. But if so many courts agree with the decision to kill him. He deserved it. It is not my nor the courts fault it takes so long. But it is a benefit for the convicted to have such time to try every option to have his sentence changed. I would not support killing a murderer quickly to avoid the costs of the time in prison waiting execution.

She has got some boyfriend. Quietly walking away and leaving her to fend for herself. Does not sound like a Bf or lover to do such a thing. Surely by now she has sobered up and come to realize the type of man she was with. Or perhaps she was really one of those foreigner sex workers that had too much to drink and began acting foolish.. The OP does not specify what exactly they were doing and any Thais account of acting improperly could simply be holding her hand in public or acting sexy to the man. It does not mean having sex or doing sexual things in public, Thais are well known for their berating foreigners and claiming inappropriate behavior even if it is only for wearing a bikini outside.

You try your best to show Trump in a bad way for these things. But face it. The men were not put to death and had gotten released from exoneration. They would not have been put to death either because it takes almost 20 years in prison before a death sentence is given. Plenty of time for them to be exonerated or to fight with appeals in the courts. So your nice little Trump rhetoric has no bearing to this OP.

Unbelievable the comments I am seeing in here from the Trump haters. Yet, so many of them would be saying to hang the Thai or foreigner in Thailand that commits a heinous act in Thailand resulting in the death of an innocent. Such double standards apply only because of their hate for Trump. If you kill someone then you should expect your life to be over as well. It is the worst act you can commit and unfortunately humans are the only animals that kill each other. You Trump haters commenting should be thinking how you would feel if someone killed your mother or daughter or wife. It is easy to comment as a keyboard warrior looking at things from a distance saying it is bad. Get yourself in the middle of it and then your opinion would quickly change. Death sentences are not handed out easily. It takes a lot to prove and then to issue a death sentence. It also takes many years to exhaust the methods of changing that ruling. Usually many appeals in courts. Showing that they actually deserve that sentencing. Get off your high horses and put yourself in a perspective that the victims understand. Stop being the keyboard warriors commenting your double standards simply because you hate Trump.

If the cameras catch you speeding. They mail the registered owner a ticket. Failure to pay is not punishable. They were supposed to implement a law that makes you unable to pay the taxes yearly if you have an outstanding unpaid ticket. But i think that law was not passed. I know many Thais who have gotten these mailed in tickets and they claim they never pay them. So I do not see your annoying consequences happening. Reducing the speed limit will only cause more chaos and accidents simply because the people will not adhere to it and those that do will cause more chances for accidents to happen. Also, it means more travel time to get to work and back if you need to drive slower on those roads. Traffic is bad enough in Bangkok. The speed limit was not very fast for the highways. They use this excuse to reduce the speed limit due to accidents with drunk drivers but, lowering the speed limit will not reduce accidents from this reason. I only foresee problems with more traffic and more people in the fast lane driving slower making it easier to rear-end someone.

Don't forget that this wage increase ( like the last one) will make vendors raise their prices as well as decreasing the quantity of food given for each order. The country will see price increases across the board whether it is needed or not.

A shame what is happening in Pattaya so often in the past year. Attack after attack on foreigners. Gang assault attacks happening monthly. Yet, still they claim it is safe and a family friendly city. Seems the only family that is safe is the Thai ones because their kids seem to be the ones doing the attacking. Good thing they got this on VDO. If the police actually do something to find them they have it all recorded.
