Farang with a box of rice?

why would he bring one; looks like staged in a very Asian way

how predictable. Lets see how many days we need to wait to see them dead;

BTW.

it seems that it may not be the only cover up murder in Koh Tao:

anybody believe that these are the right people?

This is exacly what I expected when I saw the headman coming into action.

This should be a start of another case against these who cooked up the whole 'explanation'; This can go very up the thai social ladder

something for brithish media about that:

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/thailand-beach-murders-second-burmese-4369596

quote from Guardian

"Thai authorities frequently accuse migrants from Burma and Cambodia of committing crimes in the kingdom, where they make up a vast, poorly-paid and low-status workforce.

But police have insisted they would not scapegoat anyone for the crime, despite coming under immense pressure to get a result as anger built over an apparently sluggish investigation in the days after the bodies were found."

how predictable.

The headman got it all covered.

Now they will charge some innocent burmese people.

Problem solved ;-)

This topic is suddenly off the media.

I guess everything has been sorted already 'under the table'.

No more new findings, this will remain unresolved forever .....

Thai media suck. Its obvious there was an argument in the bar on that night. It should be very easy to identify these people. Why were they not questioned.

this whole case stinks. What Sean McAnna says must be true actually

Thailand is already in a technical recession with 2q of negative GDP growth;

see:

they say it will rebounce in 2nd half of this year but i hardly doubt it.

This should be the fastest growing economy in SE asia.

Visitor numbers from China decreased most with a 21.19% drop due to the political turmoil, while most tourists travelling to Thailand are Chinese, Malaysian, and Russians.

how do u understand that?
