Oh gosh! hard to keep up with this daily flow of such acts by "high quality' Western tourists. All that some of racist posters can write about is Asians (supposedly) being tight with their money, although that is also a fallacy, based on my impartial observations

"Most" fights! This news is about some "high quality" Western tourists - why do you need to bring in the Indians into this? Or can't get over your thinly-papered over racism, is it?

It is spelt "Strait" and not "straight". How do you say the vessel had no insurance? Or that mines have been laid? (Again, it is "laid", not "layed"). Or that the captain was an idiot? This particular vessel has been on the same regular run for the past many years. It is regularly carrying cement in bulk from India to Persian Gulf.

Wow! By golly, I can barely keep up with the shenanigans of these "high quality", "big-spending" Western tourists! I can just imagine the trolling if he's been Asian/ Russian

Wow! More "high quality' Western tourists, who "apparently" spend a lot more than Asians (which is a complete load of .....) - so many posters here deride the Asians, but rarely do those engage in such crimes

Another "top quality" Western tourist, so highly desired by the regular posters on this website. If he'd been Indian (read Indian sub-continent, case Pakis, Bangladeshis, Sri Lankans all look similar) / Chinese, OMG - you'd have seen all the negative comments.

"Top quality" Western tourists, as asked for by many who post here. Say what you will about the Indians/ Chinese and others similarly vilified here, at least they are rarely accused of these and other worse crimes like pedophilia etc

Another "top quality" Western tourist, desired so highly by some of the people posting on this website.

Top quality Western tourist! Yeah, we want more of these.

Excellent "high quality" Western tourists/ visitors!

More "high quality" Western tourists, since many people who post anti-Indian/ Chinese rants on this website seem to demand these.

A high quality Western tourist. Of the type many posters on this forum have demanded more of, to "save" Thailand from Indians/ Chinese/ Russians.

Quality tourists. Nationality not identified, but look "white".

I'm told that Italian-Thai is a misnomer and the actual company is Chinese? There's no connection with Italy as such.

India is the pharmaceutical supplier to the world. As long as you're buying from reputed companies like Dr Reddy's, Cipla, Sun Pharma, Ranbaxy etc - all their factories are regularly audited by US FDA inspectors. All the supplements we are buying from Costco or Walgreens in the US are coming in big drums from India. So, quality is not an issue. Now, Thai customs is another story. As someone here suggested, make friends with Indian guys and have them buy in India and hand carry to Thailand. I recently transited through New Delhi from San Francisco and spent 3 days there and picked up all my meds for the next 3 months. No issues at Suvarnabhumi.

Yes, let's just keep the Brits and the Aussies and the Yanks with their measly state pensions and farting around on scooters in flip flops in singlets and shorts. Meanwhile the Indians fly in on chartered jets to Hua Hin and Phuket and hold huge weddings with 300+ guests. Unbelievable, some of the guys on this forum with their anti-anything other than white.

I believe it's closed now.

Oh gosh! Another "white" quality tourist, the ones so many posters on the forum wish Thailand had more of, and lesser Indians/ Chines/ Russians/ whatever?

How do you say that? Obviously one party has been scammed. And you tar the other person as well with your stupid racist comment. Next, you'll say "lighten up, it's only a joke".

Yes you made a joke but generally all you prix do is make jokes at the expense of other nationalities - Chinese, Indians, Russians - while overlooking all the crimes that the so-called "rich" tourist from the West is involved in, ranging from paedophilia to stealing

What a stupid answer and comment! Can't get out of your racist mentality, can you?

Most people have their head buried in the sand and not seeing or just turning a blind eye to, what's happening all over the world, and particularly in Western society or other, for example, India.

57, I just checked.

Stop spreading disinformation. Make a simple check before you spout off. "As of June 2024, Thai citizens can visit India with a visa-free e-Tourist visa, meaning they can apply online for a free visa to stay in India for up to 30 days with double entry, promoting tourism between the two countries; this exemption applies to holders of ordinary Thai passports." Stop spreading disinformation. As for your other equally false statement "something no other country on this planet allows", again, I direct you to simple check on Google. There are 57 countries visa free for Indians.

This is 100% true. Stupid bend-over-backwards liberal policies are going to bite the UK, France, Germany, Sweden big time. Look at what Lebanon was once upon a time. Look at what Afghanistan was, in the 70's; or Iran, in the 70's too. You'll see your future.
