Anywhere else in the world, if a young girl is claiming rape by anyone. If she has an agent with her from some group like the one who accompanied her, and if there is video of the policeman in the hotel with the young girl, the police would arrest the dirty old man regardless of whether he was a policeman or not. The man would have his chance to explain why he was in a hotel room alone with a young student and why she is making these claims in a courtroom. Here in Thailand, seems a cop can do what he wants, without fear of apprehension by peers unless it has already hit the news and they have set up panels to investigate or make it disappear. This story will be forgotten in a week most likely. The panel will be well paid and find nothing happened. But one has to ask themself. Why a young student, would go to a strange police station. finger a man she has never seen before with a rape accusation. Claim he videotaped it to extort her for more sex. Know the cops name. Have video with them both together at hotel. What possibly could this students purpose be for making these accusations? I do not know about the many of you reading, but i have yet to read about any Thai that is this intelligent and can plan things with so many details for a lie. They simply do not foresee their planning when doing things. So I will have to take this into account when thinking whether or not the accusation is real or fake.

Everyone in Pattaya can thank TAT and the Chinese leader for opening up China to travel at precisely the time when their Covid outbreak was at its peak there. Then Tat and the Thai governments approval to allow anyone back into this country. I foresee some terrible Covid situation arising again in Pattaya soon. Let's hope I am wrong.

What a crock of sh--t. Several days of news spouting about cancellations or changes in the venues for the countdown and activities have been announced. Does this TAT idiot even know or read what is being said prior to issuing such a ludicrous statement?

How to know who is a sexpat and who is not just by looking at them entering the country? I think most single men entering the country are sexpats first and then grow out of it. I am most certain you have had your share of women in Thailand and perhaps now have settled down to only one. So you should not be instigating nor complaining about this in the forum. The plethora of women offering themselves to men can be inviting to any man who is here for the first time. Why label them?

Ohh come on now.. We all know the RTP do not walk up casually to foreigners demanding to look in their backpacks or carrying cases. Someone tipped them off about this guy. Perhaps he opened the bag and someone saw it and told the police for a kickback. But surely, the police did not do this randomly.

Ohh come on... We all know the real issue is not about mental competence to own a gun. Most thais would pass this test, UNTIL, they lose face or lose a gf to a falang or something else that makes them snap or makes them responsible for their actions.

Uber was already approved before i think

You better hide the Chutes and Ladders game. It may offend construction workers and cause dissent also.

foreigners you mean. So they will not care that.

Hit and run with injuries. This foreigner and his wife, if they have any brains at all. Will threaten police action like criminal charges and court action against the Thai man. As my understanding is if have this kind of accident, then can get several hundred thousand baht in claim against the driver. If they can not settle a monetary amount then the Thai man can be charge criminally and a case for damages and hospital fees can be sued for. The same as a a Thai does to a foreigner that hits them.

Does anyone know how to get information about upcoming riding events like this one? I would have loved to have driven my bike with many there to support their charity

Why is confiscation in this law? It is illegal for police to confiscate a license now. https://tdl-service.com/new-thai-law-means-traffic-police-cannot-confiscate-driving-licences/

Beach chair mafia against the speedboat mafia.. it will be an interesting fight. Hope they all kill each other and then maybe Pattaya will stop allowing these types of mafia to control businesses there.

I Use Bank of America. There is no fee to send money to Thailand using their banking. But you will need an encryption USB to use their online banking to send money to another country. They do however provide a choice to send thai baht or USD equivalent. The rate of exchange they use is about 1 baht less than the current exchange rate.

What about all those free seeds and plants to any Thai that wanted to attempt growing it? Each plant will make flower so this would make everyone doing it a criminal as well. I do not see this as being the final decision. Too much of the population has already registered to grow as well os getting 2 free plants anytime they want. https://www.insider.com/thailand-gives-away-a-million-marijuana-plants-but-says-dont-get-high-2022-6#:~:text=Thailand has legalized the use of cannabis and is giving,condone the drugs recreational use. https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/se-asia/over-150000-people-in-thailand-register-for-cannabis-planting-as-crop-is-legalised#:~:text=Over 150%2C000 people in Thailand,is legalised | The Straits Times I do not see how they can criminalize or change the laws after doing this knowing they just gave away over a million reasons to make someone a criminal for following their law.

i am told by the social security that the cost of living index for retirees will get a boost in their income from the USA for a whopping 8.9% in January. The most increase ever. I do not believe that Thailands baht value can increase so much so rapidly without some sort of manipulation.. It is not normal for sure to have such a large change so quickly and it was ordered by the PM to do something to increase the value of the baht last month. The comment about China is bulls__t because they are still locking down many places in cities. My friend there has been in lockdown for a couple weeks already just because someone in their neighborhood was tested positive for covid. Also, anyone who travels into China is faced with 5 days quarantine at their government centers and then home self isolation. This was in the news last week. Who would take a week holiday only to be quarantined for another week or 2 returning home?

i would tend to agree. It is safer to drive without a plate or with a faded plate. Noone seems to care about those. Hmm...
