    A few years ago I went across to Tachileik in Burma, at the Mae Sai border checkpoint.

    I was standing standing near a shoe rack outside a temple when a middle-aged guy ran up with a stick, using it to beat up a young bloke.

    Afterwards I asked another local what it was all about. He said it was the police, and had just seen the young guy stealing a pair of shoes from the rack.

     

    i might take this slightly off topic. i think it's kind of on topic but i'll soon know if the mods delete it. i see stealing someones shoes from a temple as akin to travellers in the uk who claim to be all christian but will quite happily steal the lead off the roof of the local church/chapel. it's just low

    By the way, detained and deported for one day overstay is scary, no one is immune to such an insignificant error as 24 hours for countless unintended reasons. 

    put it this way. the last time i overstayed i knew but i was too sick to go to the border and knew i'd be OK in a day or 2. hardly left the house and when i did was a bit paranoid. not a good idea getting caught on overstay here. the rules are very clear for everyone. right to be here from immo is the number one priority for being in thailand. get caught out and end up like the OPs mate. not a good place to be

    My point was that for some reason you seem to be suggesting that this one individual should not have been allowed to ride off when everyone else in the same situation is.

    no, you got me wrong. no one should be allowed to. to be fair mate, i only drive my bike in the village but i never wear a helmet so i'm no angel and maybe that will come back to bite me in the ass ?

  5. i agree with a few other posters. the reporting on possessions wasn't being callous. it proves that she wasn't robbed and pushed and perhaps money wasn't the issue. they reported on a medical appointment card found too. was that callous. no, just perhaps it might give a clue as to why the poor girl decided to take such drastic action. RIP

    I agree..we actually called the police last week, our small soi has become out of control with speeders and exssisive loud scooters,and alas nothing ever happens until I confront a rider then they want to fight..so I am always happy when an officer'' takes the time '',to a) DO HIS JOB and b) evaluate a situation as ''high risk '' or low risk and deal with it, sometimes ''a stern warning'' and mbey it warrents a ticket'...Thailand is filled with lazy police and it is why the lawless continues...hve a good day sir

    one hit my mrs car day before yesterday whilst she was sat in traffic, not the first time. got dash cam footage showing the little shit drove off. had to report to police for insurance but no plates so nothing they could do. insurance said they'll pay the damage but will affect her insurance next time. can be very annoying. good evening to you too

    ya your probably right,..why not just shoot him..or wait, I read the execution table is free October 14 1630 hours,but call in advance we have those nasty'' left turn on a red ,''executions stacking up

    mate they have to do something about it, i just don't know if it will ever happen in my lifetime. there's kids running around my area on bikes without helmets and no lights or plates that can't can't be more than 10 years old.. i don't think press ups is the answer. no need to waste money on execution, they'll probably kill themselves

    UPDATE: Just received a Post Office Missed Delivery Card through my letterbox which was clearly my passport and visa. Therefore, the Thai Embassy doesn't issue a tracking number for the recipient to use. If they had, I'd have known to be in for the delivery date and not missed it!! Anyway, thought I'd mention it for those that send by post and wonder if the Embassy send you a tracking number, they don't.

    off to the post office then. 3pm over there. should be open ?
