  1. If they do manage to get out on bail, I am pretty sure the Thai authorities will confiscate their passports!
  2. "Both men will be recommended for blacklisting, said Col Supharik." For good, I hope!!
  3. Love the sarcasm, but its a bit too near the truth?
  4. You are correct, if the riders are wearing helmets!
  5. Whilst I agree with your sentiment, surely there are many more Thais on motorbikes without helmets on the roads every day weaving in and out, not just on Sukhumvit, they are not immune?
  6. When you say Indonesia, do you mean Bali, or other places in Indonesia?
  7. Well you would have to define what exactly you means by "worst"?????
  8. The headline in the post is about Indian tourists, but the OP does mention Chinese tourists! "Chinese tourists used to account for more than one in four arrivals. But they haven't yet returned while Beijing continues its zero-COVID restrictions. The governor expects to see them back in Thailand during the Lunar New Year holidays starting from late January."
  9. Only if you like it? Not everyone does?
  10. You are correct and I said most do not!
  11. If all the Immigration offices had the same rules and all the Immigration Officers obeyed the rules and interpreted them the same way, you would be correct. Unfortunately as we all know this is not the case, even in the same office different officers say different things. How many people on this forum have posted about problems with immigration, I got to admit sometimes its the fault of the applicant, but other times it seems the IO deliberately makes things difficult. If you live fairly close to the Immigration Office and if its just a missing form or something, usually its not a problem, but some folks live hours away. It seems Immigration change things many times without informing anyone, so you turn up and hey, you need to fill this in, or copy something. Good agents take away the anxiety and can give folks peace of mind. You have to pay for the peace of mind though, but some think its worth it.
  12. Not arguing with your post or math, however I am pretty sure that most massage girls do not make that much per day!
  13. "Thai immigration withdraw tourist visas of two CNN reporters" They entered with tourist visas as per the OP
  14. Scoot used to be very reasonably priced, but since they have put back most of their routes, after Covid, the prices have more than doubled, unless you can book several months ahead.
  15. Absolutely. Even how is anyone to know exactly how much was in the safe unless he has written/photographic proof it was put there?
  16. It seems clear that the reporters from CNN made a mistake coming into Thailand on tourists visas and then doing actual business/work. It also seems that the official who gave them permission to cross the line into the crime scene made a mistake. Its very unfortunate what happened but its been blown out of proportion, by the Thai press, net-citizens!
  17. "as far CNN newscasters they do a great job and they’re pretty unbiased and fair" Great absolutely love good sarcasm!????
  18. Quite so. However it turns out the cops who gave them permission did not have the authority to do so. Will they also get prosecuted for exceeding their authority?
  19. "Most of those punters who allege xenophobia here, continue to do the same against Russians, Indians, Chinese, or anybody else who does not belong to the clan!" I don't think its xenophobia, its just it seems there is preponderance of Indians who seem to get things stolen, or at least reported stolen and end up on AN. Certainly others may have stuff stolen that we don't hear about?
