The staggering amount of defensive replies to this man's actions is unbelievable! 5 pages. Most of you appear to think that it is absolutely normal for a 41 year-old foreigner, a 'teacher' at that, believing it was OK to invite a 14 year-old girl student to his home, without any apparent check that her parents knew about it? It was stated that he only held her hand and hugged her. Why would he do that? Alone with a young girl, none of you even think that gestures like that are a typical grooming ploy? How do you know what this American was thinking? She probably looked up to him as a respected teacher and placed her trust in him. She may even have given him the impression that she was interested in being alone with him. But the bottom line is that he is/was a teacher. He is supposed to honourable, trustworthy, of good moral character and this is definitely and in no way, that such an person entrusted with vulnerable young people, especially a young girl, should act. You all know that. He was totally wrong to allow this to happen. The fault lies with him. absolutely. How many times on this forum have I seen you all baying for blood and justice when a Thai teacher, or even another foreigner teacher attempts something like this? Is it because he is an 'American'? If he was a Brit, you would all be screaming about him with the usual racial hatred many of you have for them. Disgusting Trump-like show of the way women are viewed by many men! It is shameful!

This is one case where the husband, vile and loathsome creature that he is, fully deserves the most heinous, and most sadistic torture and abuse, to be used repetitiously to punish him on a daily basis, for a period of years into the future. Even then, he would not suffer as this poor woman has in this almost unbelievable and repugnant criminal act imposed upon her by him and dozens of other, like-minded animals.

And you sir, what sh*t-hole country are you from, pray tell?

Great idea! Display attitude of heartbreaking' decision to put 3 savage killer dogs up for adoption. Pass same savage killer dogs on to another person. Who will likely be savaged by them They should be killed immediately!

There can be nothing more pleasant than a whacking out a good Gurfurgle with a twenty-something cute, Thai girl from just about anywhere.......... providing that as an old guy, your GF/wife, whatever is no longer around. Of course, like all of you, I look at beautiful girls or women. It is man's most time-consuming pastime. But I also know that the hurt I would cause to my current wife, (should I stray.......), would be heartbreaking, in that I would cheat on her like that. I just couldn't do it. I also know that if my current wife were to stray, I would be forgiving and head straight out to shag the living daylights out of whichever young cutie gave me the opportunity! 'IF'.................I could still get it up! Or, 'IF' the adorable young cutie - would even contemplate such a monstrous idea!

Party pooper!

Oh dear, dog man 2024.

Why do you specifically want to befriend Thai men? You could be friendly, but they will never be your 'friends' You are who you are, apparently..........!

So the Spanish guy objected to a sexual assault by the victim and he fell, hitting his head on the bathtub. They were in the bathroom together? Or in the bath together? Conundrum! Still, no point getting lathered up about it - back to my coffee.

I'm amazed to discover that they actually have such a document!

And if she's Chinese, where did the machine come from? Did she bring it on the plane? Did she take it with her when she left? Do the police even care? Did they even check? Didn't any policeman see her on her travels? But she's 'gone'. Problem solved!

This news article was responsible for my 1st immediate thought .........that submarine! Easy to submerge, not so easy to surface. Nothing on God's earth would persuade me to enter one - let alone a collapsible tunnel!

I hate to post as a possible 'Spelling policeman', paddypower, but I must point out that you seem to have made a small spelling error, which is important: Your use of the word 'annals' in this context, has only one letter, 'n'!

Koh Samui officials should hang their heads in the shame at this foreigner-inspired clean-up. I used to go to Samui every year back in the early '90s when it was a stunningly beautiful, tropical and almost empty paradise. I recall the first evening that my then English wife and I spent at Chaweng beach. we could look left for about 1Km and then right down that curved 2Km stretch . It was nearly empty, clean, enchantingly beautiful and it remained like that for the next 2-3 years. We then started to noticed the garbage drifting across the sea from Koh Koh Phangan, syringes, plastic and other flotsam/jetsam that washed up daily. Two years later, Samui was a construction site of concrete, low quality tourists, garbage-strewn beaches, all supported by a vast variety of blaring music, outrageous pricing scams and the increasing number of Mafia organisations from various countries taking over and we decided there and then that we would never go back and we never did. I still live in Thailand and have done so for 20 years. The problems listed above have not been resolved. They have just become worse and the garbage is top of the list. I will never return to Samui. The fantastic times we had there are just fading memories - just like many other such places.

Here we go again. Some self-righteous, puffing important foreigner know-it-all has decided yet again that he/she is self-promoted to become the older man/younger companion police ageist-checker! What on earth has it got to do with you? Your repressive beliefs are of no interest to the majority of posters on this forum. However, I recognise your right to have these prim, repressed and virtuous views, but am prepared to give you some alternative advice, old man, which is: Don't be so intimidated by beautiful young women, whatever their profession, nor underestimate the desires or needs of men, regardless of age, to be attracted to these lovely sirens. It's their choice, not yours, Maybe go and try it out for yourself? Forget mummy's advice about 'dirty' women', go dip your wick! - Lap the lips If Ladyboys, boys, the burnt plum or animals are your thing - go for it. Just don't try to impress normal people that their lives are your responsibility. There's a good chappie!

With that short dis[play of grotesque, unswerving subservience - I'm sure you're not!

He's Russian. We're not. Different regulations for Russia and China. They are good - we are not.

How clever. To quote a random Chinese phrase, using transliterated English and then tries to look even more clever by explaining: "I am very surprised if you do not know by now...... Are you guys not of Asia"? No, we're not. 20 years living here; I'm not 'of Asia' and I've never heard of it. Why? Because this is Thailand. Not China. And the song is crap!

In this video, I wasn't really watching Flab-a-fat - I was fascinated by the the sycophantic, nodding imbecilic behaviour of the nerdy to**er in the right-hand corner of the clip, nodding dutifully in accord to what the Watchman was saying, bowing and scraping, almost prostrating himself in drooling, groveling mode towards his 'superior'. The Thai way.

She didn't even have to endure the election selection. Just walked into the top job. No hard graft to get there - just Daddy's little girl cronyism. I bet Thai students can't wait for the old slogan, "Free Samsung Galaxy notebook for every student in Thailand". Just like Yingluck!

Probably puffed and blew him into the canal.

So what? I own a chisel.

Including the monk!

Try the Thai strawberries - widely available during the Chiang Mai/Samoeng strawberry season December - February. And just as tasty as the western variety, cheaper too.
