I want to say it again: I have no sympathy for rapists or sick pedophiles, but death sentences demanded by the public remind me of the crowd calling: "cruzify him, cruzify him..."
We should be more advanced in the meantime.
I think it's an older generation thing. It's weird but hopefully an attitude that's on the way out.

They are criminals breaking the law and fully deserve to be caught and punished.
I think this is a view of a close-minded person who has lived so long controlled by regulation that they have lost sight of the bigger picture. You should punish people who do wrong things, not illegal things.

Why? Who benefits when they are sitting in a cell for years? Nobody benefits. The Thai way of paying money to absolve yourself of responsibility works okay for soft drug 'crimes'.

Where to get a clasp fixed on a silver chain in Bangkok? It's the bit that you connect the two ends with as you fasten it around your neck. Might need the clasp replacing completely and might also need one of the connecting links repairing/replacing.
The chain cost about 4000 baht originally so an expensive repair job wouldn't be economical. Ideally looking for some backstreet jeweller, not any kind of professional in a sparkling high-end mall.
Thanks

if we're talking a small difference in price of 10% on a service that only costs a few baht, I honestly don't think it warrants getting so upset about. Life really is too short!
Not getting upset about this will ultimately lead to much worse injustices which you will eventually be forced to get upset about. Much better to nip it in the bud at the outset.

Couldn't agree more Sir, instead the VIP lanes should be used by the elderly, disabled, and young families. As you would give up your seat on a bus or train, so you should make similar sacrifices at the airport for the benefit of society.
Scrap business class too, a huge polluter not to mention a congregation of pretentious snobs.

It's different. Both male and female in porn are working. Only one is working in prostitution.
Safer environment, more regulated, less chance of contracting diseases...
In most countries making porn is legal whereas prostitution usually isn't.

10% more for foreigners? So Thais would pay, for example, 30 baht for a fare and I would have to pay 33 baht? I see no reason to raise my blood pressure over a few baht! Now if it was 10 x more (as in the case of national parks) then it would be a different story!
I never understand this argument. It doesn't matter if you are charged 1 baht more or 1000 baht more. You are being charged a different price based on who you are - in this case your nationality. It's the same sort of dangerous thinking that put black people at the back of the buses in the US. Everybody is equal, it doesn't matter where you are from or what you look like. If you started using this sort of backward pricing strategy in your capital city, on a mass transit network where it has most exposure to Thai people, then that's when it starts to trickle down the foodchain, and why you are charged 10 baht more than a Thai for your noodle soup.

now there is a new breed of tourist and they'll lap all this shit up without giving it a second thought
If you post on the tripadvisor forum for Thailand, you will see a lot of threads from Indians in particular asking about the animal attractions, stuff like Fantasea in Phuket and the tiger cub places. They get a barrage of advice, but only about how to be a more ethical tourist. A lot of people asking for advice on that forum seem to be very naive, the questions are all pretty dumb and could be answered with a simple Google search, but there does seem to be a particularly acute naivety from the Indians, maybe because their country has only had mass tourism opened up to the populace more recently. Of course these forums only show the English speakers. The Chinese have their own forums and they're probably even worse.

Oh. Then why are the ones I see all speaking Thai and texting in Thai? It’s simply not 50% I rode it 4 times this week.
Are you suggesting only Thai people can speak and write Thai? By that logic I guess the Thais speaking English must be foreigners...
Anyway plenty of asians speaking other languages other than Thai and I see a lot of asian people typing/reading non-Thai languages on their phones.
Maybe depends when you travel. I don't travel at peak times when maybe a lot more people (mostly Thais) are commuting and it drowns out the tourists.

Agreed. Not as if she woke up this morning and thought-
That is the definition of selfishness - not thinking about other people. She didn't think about them, so it's selfish.

I don't know what the percentage is but there are a lot of post op LBs in Pattaya and like i say many guys don't realise with the very plausible ones. Some are very difficult to tell, point being its greater risk if someone inadvertently barebacks an LB
I can understand that some of them are hard to tell from their looks, but the voice? It's never a female voice. So unless she doesn't open her mouth the whole time there's no excuse.

Any 'entertainment' venue that profits from the captivity of wild animals should be closed down and the entire practice made illegal.
The only reason a wild animal should be kept in captivity is for conservation reasons.

50% of riders on the Sukumvit line are not foreigners lol. Are you kidding? At most on average 10-20% max. Twenty percent is actually quite high and probably incorrect.
I think it's about 50%. Maybe slightly less outside high season. If you mean people who don't look Asian then yes maybe about 20%. As usual all the Chinese, Japanese, Malaysians and Koreans get lumped in with the Thais.

By the way for anybody interested, in Thailand the HIV strain is different to the strain/s in Europe and it's more prevalent in heterosexuals, whereas the strain/s in Europe is more prevalent in gay men.
1.3% of Thais have HIV. That means if you sleep with just 10 Thais with no protection you have a roughly 1 in 10 chance of sleeping with one HIV positive person (which doesn't necessarily mean you will contract HIV).
If you sleep with 10 prostitutes, I'd put the odds at closer to 1 in 5.
Thailand has the highest prevalence of HIV in Asia.

It's interesting to see the amount of people who would take 10 years off their life just to eat fatty/sugary foods. Is it really worth it?
I just see food as nourishment, so eating healthy foods or eating not healthy foods, it's the same for me so it makes sense to eat the healthy stuff. Maybe some people have more active taste buds.
What about all the day to day side-effects of being unhealthy/fat? A lot of them aren't comfortable/desirable.
Seems a no-brainer to me.

So, going forward, a threat to the visa agent asking for a return of the money now or police will be involved? If she is doing something illegal she might be more inclined to give the money back than risk police involvement.

Sure, I'm not saying every person using prostitutes is the typical beer gutted white guy. But there is a disproportionate number of those type of men procuring the services of prostitutes, world over. In Thailand you only need to stand at the end of Soi Cowboy and watch the guys coming out with a girl on their arm. Compare that to the local park where you have what we might consider more 'evenly-matched' Farang/Thai couples.

I have no idea. How much does a work permit usually cost? That seemed high to me.

Some of my dear friends are gals-for-hire. I have a sort of fatherly / brotherly love for them. I don't see their profession as any less worthy/respectable than a politician or policeman or military person.
On the one hand I have respect for people who work very hard, show dedication, get up every morning when they really don't want to, to go to work. And on the other hand, I feel sad for them because they are spending their whole life working, often with just one day off a week. They have no time to go anywhere, or do anything. They have no hobbies or interests. A lot of them will make it to old age without having been outside Thailand.
So, being a whore is on the face of it a good career choice, but they don't save their money or spend it wisely, they get drunk every night, and they end up in the same position when they reach 50-60, they haven't done anything with their life or gone anywhere. They've just had a few more lie-ins in the mornings.
Some of the pretty ones could be really very rich if they would just look after their money properly. They could use the funds to start a proper business and they'd be set for life. But that might require a brain which might be too much of an ask.

Well, you dont know what your missing.
It doesn't do it for me. I can't have sex with them (and enjoy it) because I know they probably wouldn't be there if they weren't getting paid. That kills the whole thing.
Also I think the guys paying for sex are disrupting the natural order of things. They're lazy and often paying for it because they can't get it for free. It takes girls away from the guys who are putting an effort into taking care of themselves. It proliferates laziness. And a lot of the girls who make this career move are pretty, at least the freelancers, so the pool of girls that remain is missing the 9/10 girls. So the rest of us have to make do with what remains.

Lots of assumptions, mainly you have decided it was her fault.
well how else is a prostitute likely to get HIV? Needles? I think not using a condom whilst having sex with a customer is the most likely explanation and a fair assumption to make.

all of those young girls in amateur porn and the like are coming from somewhere.
Porn is not the same as prostitution. But that's another debate.

Civilised society does not involve pre-meditated murder as an act of revenge. That nonsense belongs in the 18th century.
