Wherever there is a bunch of Chinese people living in a middle to upper class  housing project or gated community you can bet they are all up to no good .

That's a bit unfair.  There are plenty of honest, hard-working Chinese people everywhere, otherwise there'd be nobody these criminals could target with their Scams.

However, if there are 15 Chinese living in one house -those are up to no good.

Silly Canadian.  He should have kiestered it. 

1.5 Kg of heroin and would have easily fit, based-on the bagginess of his shorts.

Who does he "borrow" the money from?

I'm guessin' that he added a big tip on top of the bills which he didn't bother to pay.

The junkies in those photos are outright spritely compared to the new generation of fentanyl addicts.  When the fentanyl "kicks in", they just fold over but remain on their feet.

Coming to a street near you.

Additional unidentified ammunition was also recovered

The "unidentified" ammo is 7.62x39mm, the most-used weapons caliber in the world and used in the AKM family of assault rifles.  It is obvious because it uses steel casings.  Every country surrounding Thailand issues it to their troops and the Thais can't identify it?

There is no fixed association between surname and skin colour.

 

For instance,  this is Soledad O'Brien, a well-known American broadcast journalist.

Dude,

I know Soledad.

Her dad is Irish by way of Australia.  Her mom is Afro Cuban.  

Her name very much fits her.

His ankles look photoshopped.

I can understand if he was Somali or Ethiopian, but no-way a O'Brien Dinino.

So which one was it?

1.  Controlled detonation.

2.  EOD disabled the circuit, rendering device safe.

3.  No explosives found, meant to create fear, not harm.

Nobody else noticed the different directions this has been reported?

What d'ya mean?

Didn't you see that Farang get his top ripped from his body? 

Plenty of flesh to be seen!

If he is on a red notice from Interpol they may well send people over to accompany him home.

Your understanding of Interpol is from the movies.

Interpol doesn't have agents jetting around the world with their badges and guns busting organized crime and terrorist organizations.

Interpol was set up to coordinate law enforcement communication and activities between nations.  Participating countries commit members to work in offices sifting paperwork to find clues that they pass to actual law enforcement agencies around the world.  Interpol facilitates communication by establishing contacts globally when there used to be none.

In these two examples, Interpol agents likely traced these criminals to Thailand, and then provided paperwork requests for local police to arrest until local courts can approve their deportation.

Still looks like unprotected sex gays are the problem. Seems really dumb and arrogant. Can't get tested or wear protection?

Also, my opinion is the number of gay is much higher as many lie during testing due to the stigma of being gay.

It isn't the ladyboys & gays, it's the Western customer refusing to wear condoms.

You do that, he will definitely bring that axe down onto your boot or worse the rear windscreen. Not a good exchange of event. Just speed off to avoid that imbecile. 

You seem to think someone colliding with a car has the time to swing an axe.

Besides, it'll buff out!

Letsee: 

One axe is ~1 kg.

One car is ~1000 kg.

Defend the family. 

71 year old Latvian.

Probably figured he had nothing to lose at his age, may as well try to make more money than he ever did when Latvia was just a Russian territory.

If anyone can translate his Russian, he's probably saying "I did it for the liquor and broads!"

Thanks for the update, all these activities don't esxist in my bubble.

So your defense is that you don't pay attention to what's happening around you, so you can ignore all the corruption and misery, huh?

Typical attitude and why so may people hate Farangs.

IMHO if Thailand realy wants to stop Cambodia from encroaching on their territory then do away with the Visa runs. Let the tourist pay at the immigration office. All the money stays in Thailand and nothing goes to Cambodia. Stop feeding the enemy.

 

 

Visa run monies earned amount to nothing compared to the money earned from Casinos, fraud call centers, drug smuggling, and people smuggling.  Maybe smuggled gemstones and protected lumber species as well.

allegedly tricking 14 Australians into investing in fake bonds, costing victims an estimated 40 billion baht.

What kind of hack journalism is this.  I think someone doesn't understand proper decimal placement.

40 billion baht divided by 14 means that each one averaged EIGHTY-SIX MILLION, NINE HUNDRED SEVENTY-SIX MILLION US dollars per trade.

Anyone with that much liquid capital to invest wouldn't be taking random phone calls, and would have an army of lawyers, accountants, and advisors to handle their money.

In Thailand are they allowed to enter a home without a warrant? I have no idea but if they do need some official paperwork then what they did was out of order.

They can enter private property if they can see a crime happening in plain sight.  This is a cornerstone of all law enforcement in every country that I'm aware of.

In this case, they could clearly see people sitting around and gamble -or at least they thought it was gambling.

Definitely just a misunderstanding!

All three are upstanding members of the Nigerian Royal Family, and just waiting for their inheritances to clear a simple probate procedure.

Perhaps if we all send them a few thousand $US each, it will help them get their money, and they will reward us with a chunk of their money!

Who wants to create the gofundme?
