Hehe... you a minimizing the impact of it. blinded by your Biden love I guess

self immolation maybe. WHile the police are searching for the killer, perhaps they should also be investigating the abbot himself for wrong-doings. I do not think any one would kill this abbot in this fashion without some serious foul-play done by the abbot

i never said Biden gained financially.. i said his family used his position as President and he was sitting right there in their meetings with other countries with them knowing he was there in the meeting. This was a stated fact given by the son in a court of law a week or 2 ago. That is using your power and position as the POTUS to get favor or gain. No matter how you want to twist it. I do not hate Trump or Biden. But apparently you do as shown in your comments. Perhaps you can name 5 things Biden actually did that was good for the country?

I am curious. Given other news about the rates of travel being so much higher than normal. If this is the real cause of their recovery.

Yeah but you can pretty much guarantee that the philippine LB will be the ones in trouble.

I meant at the beginning of covid. When 100s of thousands were permitted to travel when the government already knew covid was rampant.

If this picture is supposed to be this foreigner blocking the ambulance. It is clear that the foreigner is also blocked in traffic in which case he could not move out of the way anyway. As for giving the ambulance the finger seems a little harsh but perhaps this was caused by something the ambulance did while behind the foreigners car. maybe yelling over the PA for the foreigner to move when it was obvious he could not. This Swiss man is having everything possible that can be made to show him in a negative light come to the news. Perhaps the news is trying to fuel the fire to Thais and enticing even more anti-foreigner feelings to spread to an already prejudice issue.

This should not be difficult to find. How many pick-up trucks could there be with sirens blaring? Oh wait.. That would be every police car. Hmm... Perhaps they should begin the search within their own department.

If an insult was said publicly to a Thai. They would have been taken to court and made to pay compensation and a Wai... But this does not happen with foreigners usually.

Funny because i thought the mans GF claimed her brother was a policeman there? That would make a pretty good connection in the force

Yes, she will be returning soon for sure. Without any problems to face like her brother did with his few hours in prison.

Yes, one stupid act by a foreigner can be utilized and dissected and made infamous so easily. What a Thai does to another Thai is commonplace in society and no-one really gets outraged at it. Have a minor accident or incident or even a major one with a foreigner and it can not be settled without netizens being outraged and huge punishments. The same type of accident or incident no-one would be outraged if it was a Thai and a minor settlement and wai would be acceptable. I have yet to understand this Thainess. The same I have yet to understand who are the netizens outraged either. But, clearly there is prejudism in large quantities within the society towards foreigners and the outraged netizens are enticed by the news reported which details things to make people even more angry at foreigners. A shame really because sometimes foreigners over react and do stupid things the same as Thais. We are all the same. Those that live in Thailand for a long time have made Thailand their home and usually are good to Thais and Thailand. I am not saying this Swiss man does not deserve the punishment that awaits him though. What he did was obviously bad. But the reaction singles out all foreigners now implying that there are many here that would do something so bad. Which I do not believe. In related news this foreigner will be sent out of Thailand even if there are no charges against him. And now the police are ordered to check all foreigners backgrounds in Phuket. The damage is done worse than just kicking that woman in the back. So one stupid violent act now affects all foreigners there.

You know how thailand exaggerates things when something happens. Next they will be demanding background checks on all long time visa holders of foreigners and making you get it yourself so they do not have to take their own time in obtaining it.

Apparently there is a problem with information you submitted in the online application. You must do it in person. Make sure you bring all your documents with you. Especially proof where you live and rental agreement and the house book.

I can say for a fact this is correct. I know several chinese that had their passports taken away by the government for covid. For their New years holiday though they were told that government workers were still not permitted to get their passports returned or to leave the country.

Are you sure about that? Having covid did not stop the chinese from allowing travel here. I am curious though what idiot thought if they take away the visa fee it will increase travellers? If anything it will only increase the poor travellers. Which i thought the Thais were trying to stop from coming? The normal everyday person does not see to travel to another country and base their decision on a meager entry fee.

Wow. i can not wait to read the next story about this and how it was abused and used to commit crimes.

Do not forget if they need to register as selling medical cannabis then they will also need to see proof from a doctor to sell their buds. So, I foresee registered doctors lying in wait to provide instant examinations to issue smoking license to the customer prior to the shop selling the buds.to them. On a side note, This I have to laugh at. Of course it will affect tourism somewhat.

Surely if the entered legally with valid passports their pics were taken and are integrated into the IB AI computers they use now. As soon as the passports were scanned to match that it would have shown up that they entered under a different passport. That being said, perhaps there really is not a good integration to do this as they claim or maybe it is only on that special expensive vehicle they always bragged about as their reason to catch foreigners. Or. These chinese entered illegally through some land crossing.

This is about the funnies thing i have read today. So, some guy in a research institute suddenly thinks.. Hey, we do not need to make our own babies here. We can use immigrant workers babies to show our birth rate has increased.

What a crock. How can this have any truth to it. The music noise is normal for any place near tourist bars and clubs. The way this story puts it. She must have never been outside her property after 2 in the afternoon. Since that is when most of them would have opened already.

Agreed... They raided his club for a reason. So surely he had not given any tea money to them previously. OR not enough tea money..

They already have a help line to report these scamming drivers. They even have an app for it. But alot of good those did when no-one speaks english and the app is in Thai. I tried to report a driver once on the app and once on the phone. I had video footage of what happened for each incident. Nothing ever came about my reporting the drivers. So these nice new little help lines is just like most of the lip service foreigners read about. It will work for a short time then it will stop.

The last comment in the article about the couple on the 2nd floor with glass windows were seen having sex. Those onlookers would have been charged for being peeping Toms in my country. rather than the couple maybe having consequences for their actions inside their hotel room. If you can not even do it in your room. Next will be the voyeur seeing couples having sex from their adjacent hotel room window or from the rooftop poolsides that have the other hotels near and can see the room windows there.

I did that once... negotiated a deal to take me back to my hotel. Enroute the driver decided I needed more girls and more to drink and began taking me to different places that serviced mens uhh needs... Even though I kept saying no and demanding to take me to my hotel as agreed. After an hour driving around the driver finally pulled up to my hotel and then demanded 1000 baht more than agreed. stating he showed me around to where all those places were and wanted to be paid for it. After a few minutes arguing he finally took the 100 baht that was initially agreed upon. If i was not so strong-willed the driver would have scared me to pay it I think. They can be intimidating and violent easily.
