The sexual assault was committed here so he shold be extradited and serve his sentence in a thai jal

No alcohol, what about weed? What about cigarettes? What about meat/fish/eggs? Prescription drugs? Mobile telephone and computers, motor vehicles, sugar and related products if Thailand wants its citizens to be morally Buddhist for 2 days then at least do it properly and ban everything that goes against the teachings of Buddha not pick and choose especially something that will negatively impact tourism, not just about the drink as many restaurants will also close due to loss of patrons and drink revenue thai people don’t abide by the no alcohol sales rule every mom and pop shop will be business as usual, half the rice farmers and laborers can’t function without a redbull bottle full of lao khao

I can go mid week and show it as being deserted then i can go a few days later at the weekend and it would be bustling, easy to cook the figures and show it either way, cha am isn’t a huge attraction to visiting foreigners mainly local visitors taking advantage of its relatively close proximity to bangkok at the weekends, can be busy in the week but that’s mainly government departments wasting tax payers money holding “seminars” by the beach

The sin city is what helped it turn into a large coastal tourist city from a quaint little fishing village during the Vietnam war era, it is what it is you don't need to embrace its darker side but you do need to accept it. Lets face it hardly a place id go for white sand and crystal clear waters so many better options in and outside of Thailand

How will this increase tourism? If anything it will annoy tourists even more, can get a drink at the airport but then everywhere is closed when you hit the streets, and the only place you can have a drink after a long flight happens to charge 3-4 times more for the same bottle at a regular shop

So the Thai mobs demanding justice for a woman being assaulted are reserved for female doctors only…

Immigration and technology omg, took them 2-3 yrs to get the 90 day report to a workable level

What about all these newer trucks with racing turbos fitted? They kick out far more rubbish and they should be inspected but still seem to get a pass and remain on the roads

I personally like this guy immigration was a lot less hassle when he was in charge but his comment about his suspension harming the public’s opinion on the police force is a stretch, that ship has long sailed now every Thai i speak to thinks the uniform is the only way to distinguish them from the criminals

When was the last time you saw a monk under 40 without a high end phone or ipad

Was in a church should have asked for sanctuary and caused a bit of turmoil for the immigration for a change

Should be investigated for malfeasance, and held financially responsible for loss of earnings by those encouraged to invest

They make themselves look incompetent with these Pattaya has no prostitution or other illegal activities, anyone visiting could spot numerous activities even if they have no police training

Then thats will be overturned in 12 months can’t trust government after weed debacle

How is this possible without at least one immigration officer involved ?

What’s happening to the bar who hired the non licensed security they being investigated as well?

Koh Tao has bigger problems, when you have the nickname of death island then you have bigger things to worry about

So many gaps in his story, mercenary? Private security contractor possibly. immigration refused to cancel his visa due to past cooperation on Samui what was he doing for immigration? translator, English teacher, or informant either way did he have correct visa and work permit? Lol

Why? Most people go to hua hin because it has a more mellow vibe than Pattaya and Phuket,

Thailand seems to be on a path of self destruction at the moment, persecution of foreigners by ministers (arrest foreigners operating illegal weed shops instead of arresting everyone operating illegal weed shops) Showing investment in Thailand isnt a sound business option as the government can flip flop At anytime and risk your investment as show with the recent weed fiasco now they want to investigate you for having money and wanting to stay in Thailand without the hassle of visas,

Too lazy to take the bike to the local police station?

Caused outrage? Because its a foreigner in a nice car? Thai drivers do this and worse every hour of every day

Shower of <deleted>e ! Too sick to serve his sentence but ok to stick his nose in thai politics

Trace the serial number of the weapons suspect the original purchaser was either police/army/government employee, nice little business buy the gun and get the great government discount then after 6 months sell it on for a profit and buy another. Its unlicensed so trace it back and arrest all those involved not just the foreigner dumb enough to buy it illegally
