Don't they get sent back home after completing half the sentence? I know of a young guy a few years back who did 8 years then sent home to finish his sentence,

You must be joking not here in Phuket, I know a Thai guy who got stopped, 40,000 Baht, he refused and said he'll spend the night in jail and go to court in the morning, his fine was 5000 Baht

They fear we will buy up everything and Thais will own nothing especially on Phuket,

Or on her periods

Comes in handy being able to speak Thai, there was a guy I know who had a bar and restaurant in an old Thai bungalow on a big piece of land that had another 2 bed bungalow out the back, so he thought he would do it up and rent the rooms out, so he's got some builders building a wall and a gate to separate them, but he also had a farang friend painting the bungalow and I could hear the builders talking about him not having a work permit, they didn't grass him up but you can see how they think,

How stupid is that working out of a hotel in full view of everyone, she should have rented an apartment or a small house,

I just put it down to them being thick, they should know many farang have been here years, The only time I did get offended was Nakorn Si Thammerat were i was to told to <deleted> off out of Thailand in Thai obviously, I used to like go in a bar and sit there listening to the gossip I cant do it where I live to many people know me or the wife, One of them will warn the others, be careful he speaks Thai or I have a Thai wife, Another time in a restaurant I use, and on the next table 4 of them were bang at it about how dangerous it was farangs speaking Thai, until I paid my bill and walked past them and spoke Thai to them, Idiots

The best was his war on drugs, murder on the streets

I has been mentioned many times in Phuket but nothing has ever happened

illegal business operations, nominee arrangements where Thai nationals own shares or real estate on behalf of foreigners to avoid legal compliance. Where do we start, ok start with Rawai,

Thats were they get a lot of people, yes they have a license but it doesn't cover motorbike, Some farang think that it cover it here

Lefties are losing it

In the UK the cops would be giving them some sausage rolls and a cup of tea

I think around the world at any tourist place the locals dislike the tourist, My mother used to own a hotel in Blackpool and everybody hated the tourist, I used to say to my mother without the tourist you cant spend 3 months in Tenerife during the winter, Same in Phuket, but they were crying during covid now they are back to moaning about too many Russians the Chinese will be next, I live in Rawai you don't meet may local Thai's mostly migrant's from Nakorn Nowhere but they complain about Phuket people saying the are Jai Dam, to meet actual Phuket people you need to go to Phuket Town, Having said that, I don't have a problem with any of them and there is a few live in my soi, they always speak to me, Only yesterday a friend she is a long time resident of Phuket came back of holiday and brought me a box of chocolates and some other goodies,

You forget, stand outside any school I know of one a few weeks ago, young girl dead coming home from school on a scooter,

Money

They use plastic bag over the head these days

The cop needs to be charged with losing his weapon

Are they military or ex?

Notorious, the other week they took the last 200 baht off a Burmese couple that we know,

This gives the Russians a rest for a couple days,

That makes me think did the cop pull the gun on them?

I'm looking at that video and that is a defensive mode to bring somebody down and they disarm him, to me that's not attacking him, but Im also not saying they are innocent,

Thats America the rest of the world we are normal we dont need to walk around packing

I thought they have some kind of military training, most people wouldnt be able to handle a weapon,
