So a Bungee company in Pattaya uses defective equipment which fails and is dangerous and the focus of the article seems to be that reporting the incident is unfair to Thai Tourism. The equipment was obviously replaced after the accident so the checks now are pointless. Why was this not reported on the day of the accident?

Many countries do not bother with outward immigration checks, leaving the onus to the airline to report the names and passport numbers of departing passengers. I am sure there are ways to therefore streamline checks for outward passengers. One suggestion is not require photo and fingerprint if the immigration officer believes all papers to be legitimate? My 2 cents worth!
