Thai Street Vendor Attacked by 20 Youths After Firework Warning
black tabby12345 replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
I love his kill quotes. -
As a friend pocketed the change as a joke, Max, apparently unaware of this, accused staff of short-changing him. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Max, his Thai wife, Cafe owner, and her worker. Where is the real guilty one who hid the change? Without that stupid stunt, this whole trouble didn't even start.

Teenage Husband Attacks Dorm in Dramatic Search for Wife
black tabby12345 replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
It is the standard of today’s affluent 1st world. But that is not really the universal principal. Idea of careful future and career planning is not automatically shared everywhere. Thailand is know to have huge gaps in terms of access to education(depending on the size of their parents' wallet). To the less fortunate of the society, that sort of notion is quite alien(unheard, unseen). In a country without developed social security schemes, child is just like their future age pension; looking after the baby and the child will eventually look after the parents. It almost looks like an instinctive survival strategy commonly seen throughout the 3rd world countries. Family welfare is substituting the social welfare to a great extent. That is why the very young married people often have their baby without second thought. Not beaconed by any logics, but by their survival instinct inherited for generations. -

Marriage and baby birth at very young age(mid to high teen). Used to be the old time normal when the big 3 generation family was commonly seen in Thailand(probably still usual in rural areas). Older family/relative members could mentally physically support the younger parents. Isolation, poverty, and lack of maturity. Disaster Triangle. -

A case of cold blunt bureaucracy in the land of Mai Pen Rai? -

In case of poor urban nuclear family where the very young parents cannot rely on any other family members(their mother/grandmother/kind helpful relatives). There could be a different story among the big rural family; 3 generations live together. -

In Thailand, some local diners use (small) machetes for their kitchens. Such a usage will be deemed Reasonable. -

Looks like not so rare among the poor/rural people in South East Asia. 16 years ago, a pair mother and her daughter were working(as live in janitors) for my landlord. The mother was then 41. Her daughter was 26. It means she got her daughter at 15. -

No More Helicopter Money? Then they certainly want to Down The Helicopter. Very understandable psychology. -
During interrogation, Bang-on confessed that her actions stemmed from stress due to unemployment... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Her job search now ended up impossible. Going behind bars. After her release from prison, very few people want to hire her. Takes time to gain trust. But it only takes a second to lose it...

War-related peace time death. Deadly legacy from the conflicts. Unexploded shells, aerial bombs, and land/sea mines. Continue to claims people's life and their limbs... -

She, too, extremely poor. I suppose. -
Thailand laws against social discrimination. When I checked it out with google, I found some information. Thailand 2007 Constitution - Constitute (constituteproject.org) While the system says it does not tolerate discrimination on the ground of gender, race, nationality, age etc.. people may still encounter with the invisible wall(prejudice). It is seen in many parts of the world(as most of you know). Not everyone complies with that what their rule says(until legally challenged and defeated). And what you saw could well be one of such cases. Even though that property own might have had some really bad experience with the people who are other than Thai national in the past...

Ms. Henderson purchased cannabis to smoke, after which she began exhibiting unusual behaviour. She became paranoid, fearing that someone was out to harm her... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Strong Persecutory Delusion. Often seen with the Methamphetamine addicts(it often makes them increasingly aggressive and dangerous). Sometime it results in a violent crime case like a random knife attack in the street. Did not know that could happen with Marijuana as well. This time, everyone around her was lucky; lucky enough; not to get any physical harm by the drug user. But such an incident will undoubtfully strengthen Anti-Cannabis voices in Thai society. And it makes a lot of sense why Cannabis is often regarded the Gateway Drug...
