Swedish man arrested for 972 days overstay in Thailand
Cabradelmar replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Doesn't pay his rent, threatens to kill someone, all while on overstay. Yep, not the sharpest tool in the shed. Good riddance. -

An Iraqi was caught out on a 15 year overstay. That's the most I've ever heard about. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2627061/iraqi-held-for-overstaying-visa-for-15-years -

Just grind the buds and sell it in a pre-rolled. -
Foreigner Poses as Immigration Officer, Assaults Pump Attendant
Cabradelmar replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
On loan from Potty-ya #EscapeFromPattaya 🤣 Udon Thani (and Korat) are quickly turning into expat destination settlements... it was just a matter of time before these foreigner's acting badly reports become more frequent. -
British Tourist Dies in Tragic Jet Ski Accident in Phuket
Cabradelmar replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
Doesn't take much water to drown one's self... could have aspirated a mouthful simply falling off the jet ski. Him dying at the hospital most likely means that's where they called his official time of death (and he was already "unresponsive" -- dead --on arrival). Tragic any way you look at it. -
Motorcycle Accident in Pattaya Claims Life of a British Man
Cabradelmar replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Self control can save your life. Dueling motorcycles on a wet road (assuming the dispute claim is accurate), what could go wrong... and here we are. Unreported extenuating facts & circumstances notwithstanding (alcohol, helmets, intent, etc.). Tragic, and my guess 100% unnecessary and avoidable. -

But you're not. You assume far too much, think you actually know people that you don't, and feel harmed by their comments. You're fragile, and you suffer in imagination. -

No problem. My pleasure. Stay safe, and while traveling about, don't run your mouth off to anyone anywhere in THA at 4am. -
British Tourist Injured in Gang Attack on Bangla Road, Patong
Cabradelmar replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
You assumed he engaged a group. You have no idea what occured in that 7-11. A group was present, sure. Who engaged who, and how, to what degree is 100% unknown. The fact is, he got stabbed for arguing with a Thai. A common occurrence in THA (and no, not like EVERYWHERE else, as you incorrectly asserted). The point being... don't be a fool while in Thailand. Don't argue with a Thai man at 4am in a 7-11, especially when everyone -- including the foreigner -- is likely puffed up on alcohol. Thai's are thin skinned. prone to emotional outburst and obsessed with saving facing (and probably, as in this case, armed with knives). And if you are not carefully, the attackers friends will gladly pile on (again, a very common occurrence in THA, pack mentality). Now you are caught up. -

Cabradelmar replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Maybe you just moved here, or are unaware about the culture... Thai men are a unique breed. Their thin skin, propensity for emotional outburst, exasperated by a constant need to always save face... Argue with most anyone else (non-Thai), and it turns into nothing physical, or at worse a 1:1 battle, argue with a Thai and all of a sudden you get jumped, joined by a group (armed with knives). Try paying attention to current events and newscast in this country. It might save you some pain and suffering. Idiot foreigner argues with a Thai and gets stabbed... News at 11. Rinse and repeat. -
British family leaves UK for Thailand for lower costs of living
Cabradelmar replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
She is doing her daughter no flavors by enrolling her in the Thai public educational system (unless enrolled in private, and hence pricey). As a young unmarried person living with her "partner" her only long stay visa option is an Elite Visa, nonB, or as a parent/guardian under her daughters ED. There is more to this story than is being presented... Sounds like they are people with money to start with. Which just means privilege has its privileges. But living in another country is not a walk in the park, and the grass is never as green as in the brochures. -

Always an unwise decision to engage in any type of argument or disagreement with Thai men (especially in a group at 4am in a 7-11 after a few drinks - downright stupid). -

Just another scam in the LoS (Land of Scams). Numerology, superstition, and ghost are all part of the national fabric.
