Just six? They didn't look hard enough. More lightly whipped than crackdown. And why would someone on just an 8 day overstay be lying low in a room to hide from immigration. I smell something and it ain't good.

Not that I have ever been to Pattaya but if I did I think I would walk. A nice stroll along the beach would be OK with me.

Pig heads offering are deeply rooted in Taoism. Poor pig. This kind of superstition is deeply ingrained from birth and part of their social and cultural conditioning. Thankful I wasn't born into it. It must dominate their lives. Sad.

The stats shown in this peace are designed to get people to roll of their sleeve. My entire family came down with COVID this last month's all vaccinated 4 times. Brother in law in hospital with a blood clot to the brain. My wife and I are not vaccinated and visit them maskless and have not had as much as a sniffle in years. Something is not right about any of this.

The problem is in a country where corruption is so normalised in society that these raids will amount to nothing when the trial leads to some very high up officials. It's all in the language. The Chinese are gangsters but the Thais are officials. Wouldn't the truth be both are gangsters and that the Thais just happen to be officials also.

You mean if they have passports or are willing to disclose there country of origin. Many can't be deported for that reason.

Of course he should. He was only going 10km an hour. Just kidding. No he should not. Case closed. Next question.

Welcome to Thailand where you will own nothing but be happy. Straight out of the handbook of the World Economic forum.

If the UK did their job and done this they would be called racist by the loony lefties. You can't blame Thailand for doing this. Sounds like the guy knows Thai culture well as his reply was right out of the Thai Wai book of "please let me off".

We have a guy from Pakistan selling Roti on a stall on our local market. The locals have asked him how he can work and he tells them he has a work permit. Guess he won't last long here

It was a spy. I hear Jonny English was over on holiday

Smart virus that Covid. It can tell the time.

A culling of dogs in a Buddhist country will not be accepted not that I would ever agree with that. A national spay neuter program would be more compassionate and successful and you would only need to do about 80 percent of the population to it became manageable for many years.

We also run a rescue here Nakhon Sawan and yes the free rabies vaccine program ended three years ago. Thank you for rescuing.

I don't eat meat so no.

The only reason that they make people do border hops is it keeps the tourist numbers inflated. I just did one as my 5 year visa wasn't convertible inside the country so had to go back to the UK and apply at the embassy in London.

And you are part of the problem with that stupid comment big boy. I love these keyboard warriors. Kill a dog in front of your children and see how long you last before being kicked out

Which will result in more dogs being dumped. Education is the key and in a country like Thailand unfortunately it will evolutionary not a revolution. That will take many years.

A few years ago the government set up a program called "set zero" and was primarily aimed at dogs. When local government officials were caught poisoning the dogs instead of vaccinating them their was a public outcry and it was stopped. This came about by one man dying of the disease that he got from a cat. Then we had the government minister caught selling fake rabies vaccines. I am all for a vaccination program and a spay and neuter program but if this is another one disguised as killing dogs I will do everything to expose it. We have dedicated our lives here to help the dogs and cats with over 3 hundred helped and building our own shelter using our own money. In a Buddhist country I expect nothing less than a compassionate solution to this. The problem here was created entirely by humans taking no responsibility for the dogs and cats in their care.

Exaggerated deaths, assumed deaths, died with not from, false testing kits. Can't believe you fell for it.

They would have weathered it better if they hadn't closed the country for two years over a flu. So would the world economy. No cared a jot about jobs and people's ability to feed themselves this past years only the mass hysteria over a disease that was no more deadly than the flu. Strange how virtually no one got flu this past two years also.

The story is related to Thailand. And lying is part of their culture of you knew anything about collectivism, cultural narcissism and saving face. Are Thailand unique in this. Absolutely not.

I would be careful who they are letting in the country in the first place. Just revoke all visas from Iran. Job done.

Why do so many lie in this country like a child caught with its hand in the cookie saying they were just making sure the jar was full. Just be honest.

I'm a Brit and even I found that funny ????
