Cry harder.
You all believe in Buddhism. This is called karma.

He inherited these shares and was not able to sell them due to the company being out of business .
This is false. The company was still registered and filing its papers, but it was not broadcasting or active in any meaningful way.

This makes no sense, whichever way you look at it. How these people get into positions of power is certainly not through ability and hard work.

Looks like the bars were told first to clear away all the laughing gas being sold illegally.

Don't worry, it's all fine, because tourists are willing to pay five million baht for a glorified tourist visa that includes a few free massages and a Toyota Camry collecting them from the airport.

Soi 4 has lots of hotels that many tourists will book without knowing the street is a gutter full of the absolute dregs of humanity.
Any woman walking alone there is not safe and faces being ogled, groped and accosted by all manner of dirt bags, particularly those from the Sub Continent and Middle East.
She was highlighting the problem and trying to save other women from going there by mistake.
But as usual, Thais are thin-skinned to any kind of criticism and arrest the messenger, rather than fix the actual problem.
Why don't they want to fix the problem? Because police profit from crime all along Nana and Sukhumvit.
They don't police criminals, they protect criminals. In many cases, the police are the criminals, and own the same bars.
It will never change, as it's deeply embedded in Thai culture from the very top to bottom.

Every problem in Thailand is due to laziness. This is just another example. It's easier to burn sugar cane husks than harvest them in tact. It's easy for the government to offer subsidies then enforce laws correctly.

Cambodia, Bali, Laos and other countries in Southeast Asia and beyond are all starting to develop their tourism industries to attract the Chinese. Thailand has a lot more competition from neighboring countries, where people are actually welcoming to tourists.

So why is he in the immigration detention center?
What does this have to do with immigration?
Thais are lazy. Visa offenses are the easiest option.

Both are there through choice. Those Poor Thais happily exploit men.

Better blame foreigners who ride a bike without insurance, no helmet and driver's license.
It's not like Thais to exploit foreigners who are in need. Not at all.
Those pure Buddhist heart-of-gold always smiling and welcoming perfect Thais don't do that.

Please enlighten us on the LOT OF taxes that a visitor pays.
Let's hope you don't have in mind the VAT on goods, which you have to pay in about every country in the world, and is in Thailand at 7% about a third of what it is in most other countries.
So your statement actually should have been, anyone who lives or visits SAVES a lot of taxes
Plane tickets, taxis, fuel, hotels, food, drinks... anything where payments are mad.
VAT and income / profit tax from the business all find their way to the establishment.
The moment you spend money in a country, part of that ends up in the government.
If you don't understand that, you're just not intelligent or experienced enough to have any discussion with.

Thais are so kind. They will make sure to give the foreigner the best service possible, at the highest prices possible. Especially high because it's a life-threatening situation. They definitely would not exploit that.
Then they're so kind, they'll keep them on their paradise island for as long as they like, until they have paid every last penny.

You know that the image of Phuket taxis is lower than a snake's belly?
Many would say the image of Thailand is little better.
