ka1234 you're right on the nose. whatever the reason the authorities should not just claim every farang killed to be a suicide. it makes them suspect. your 4 reasons are close to the truth for sure.

it also seems that easy targets are picked. no close relatives or friends nearby. noone to make trouble after the murder. yes, murder.

noone can commit suicide in that fashion, it's impossible. i like the comments of some of you about that.

i'm just wondering when is the EU going to make an issue of it, and contact the thai government about these killings? More EU citizens are being killed here than in the war in Iraq! But then, I guess the EU only cares about money, not about its citizens. And the news agencies in EU only care about the news fed to them by EU governments.

yes, if there is one thai parent, it's no problem to get a thai passport for the child born in thailand.

to get also a passport of the country where the Dad is a national of depends on the country. most countries will grant such (dual nationality to be decided at a later age by the child).

however, f.e. The Netherlands changed its law this year in April that if you did not acknowledge the embryo (so before it's born) to be yours, you will have a waiting period of 3 years where you have to prove you support the child.

If you did acknowledge the embryo (legal papers at the embassy) or if you have YOUR name as registrar of the thai birth certificate (which means you CAN'T let the hospital do it for you!!!), then you can get a Dutch passport with no problem.

This is too bad for all those who had their baby right before this stupid law came into effect.

The Dutch government makes trouble for those children and parents thereof, while the country is (STILL) being overcrowded with foreigners who end up to have more right than a baby born of a Dutch national abroad!!!

BUNCH OF The Hague IDIOTS!

Yes, I guess the government of Thailand will never allow any foreigner to own any land in Thailand. What I wonder about, is why our countries (whether it be US, Canada, EU country) allow Thais to own land in our countries. They should change that as well for any country that discriminates as they do in Thailand.

F.e. Vancouver was literally run over by Hong Kong Chinese and do they have any rights there? Oh yes, ALL rights as any Canadian. So they took over the city!!

The same is true in Europe regarding people from all over the world.

Well, that's utter blindness of our governments, now isn't it?

I will NEVER buy a house or condo, they can stuff that where the sun never shines even in Thailand -. Until that discriminative law has been changed!!

Even worse, if you marry a Thai, your spouse is automatically derived of her birthright as well, she can then only own a maximum of some rais.

Pure discrimination, not befitting the 20th century! But then, protecting the interests of the Thainese (Chinese Thais) is of the outmost importance, obviously. They seem to own all the land that is worth owning!
