    Meantime mr red bull continues to enjoy his freedom after killing a cop while hoped up on cocaine.

    Maybe the swede just didn't understand how many big envelopes need to be distributed.

    I wanted to read the comments to see how long it would take for someone to mention the Red Bull Guy. 15th comment. I'm sure Red Bull Guy isn't living an under the radar life.

  2. Date 13 Dec 2025 but in the complaint is uses the Chinese/Thai date of 2568, strange. Like a few people have said, I'm not sure if this is real but it mentions taking 50 hours of pay from the December pay cycle. As it's 15 Dec when it was written are they saying they are taking money from the employee for OT already worked? Making that person work OT without paying? Bothh illegal under Thai law from what I've read. So if it was mandatory for the employee to attend the event, were they being paid to attend?

  3. As mentioned in one of my earlier posts, there is no one on Interpol's website by the name Vorayuth Yoovidhya or Yoovidhya Vorayuth. There wasn't one now or about 5 years ago (The last time I looked). A search for just Thai people produced the results in the photo and opening up the page for one of those people produce a page that doesn't look like what's being posted on this forum

    There are no Red Notices  on Interpol's website for anyone by this name. There are only 3 Thai people wanted and he's not one of them. A search provides 3 results and clicking on one of those results produces  info on the wanted person that on a page that looks nothing like this. Perhaps this is an old page but still there is no person by this name on Interpol's website. For reading a post above it seems like this photo was published in a Bangkok newspaper. After some research on the actual Interpol website today and 5 years ago, it would appear this post is possibly fake or it was removed a long time ago, as there are no Red Notices for this person. Fake or removed makes a person wonder.

    Is there an Interpol red notice for this shameless billionaire?

    A search on the interpol site for that name shows he's not on the Interpol website. A search looking for just Thai people produces 3 results and he's not one of them.

    A Kazakh businessman filed a complaint with the Phuket Governor after being tricked by Ukrainian and Thai men into investing in a real estate project in the province. However, he has not received any profits from the investment.

    However, Takhir, who was one of the project’s partners,

    Was he an investor or partner. There is a difference. Perhaps he was both or he thought he was both.

    How a liberal Harvard professor became Trump’s most distinguished defender on TV, freaked out his friends and got the legal world up in arms.

    "liberal Harvard professor" He's still an intelligent man when it comes to law but I believe he is known more for constitutional law

    Do you have a link to that Comey quote?

     

    Trump committed crimes and got convicted. It speaks volumes about you that you support a criminal.

    I personally heard him say it during an interview while promoting his book. At the time i stated this was election interference. No one listened. a few years later I saw this

    and since you asked that question I started to do a search for the video, there is loads of stuff but that exact video I don't have the time at the moment to search for. Possible later today.

    Amazing how these Thai men treat the women like they own them.

    Somebody shagged my wife I'd just say fine you don't want me so I'll go. 

    And I would be very happy to be free from her! I have a thai girlfriend whom I care for dearly but if we ever break it off I will never have another girlfriend. I love my freedom.

    Not in itself illegal, I would wager a great number of shell companies exist, and not just in Thailand.

     

    Citation? Employment agencies are very routine, found in all countries - they sit between employer and employee and skim a commission. It's a legitimate business, and the work permit is incidental to this operation.

     

    What is illegal, is Thai nominee shareholders, and (where it applies) not actually employing four Thai employees per foreign work permit, not paying tax etc. In this case it sounds like the issue was Thai nominees, and potentially bogus Thai employees on payroll.

    No more than two years ago I read an article written by a Thai legal expert about foreigners forming companies skirting the system with the sole purpose of buying land to live on. The article said a true company must have employees, actually doing some business and all the documents taxes etc that go with a true business. If the Thai government found the company wasn't a true business the foreigner could have his land taken.

    If I remember correctly technically each Thai shareholder is supposed to have a certain amount of money. I forget the exact amount but it was around 1,000,000 baht. I doubt this Thai has 270,000,000 but it's possible.

    Yeah I know my comment posted twice. I clicked submit but the was no action that let me know my comment posted.

    ...but gave no specific details in the story. Other than the business must not have more than 49% foreign ownership. A very greay area as to what is "fraudulent" or "bogus". The companies were formed as per the rules by all accounts (or they wouldn'y have been formed) but the authorities don't like it. OK the Thai lady has interests in 270 companies. Maybe she's just very successful. It is clear that "authorities" do not like what is happening but to call it "fraud" is a stretch. Who is actaullay being defrauded and losing their money? As usual the story is light on specifics.
