  1. I think I would have done the same thing had I been in the same situation as the OP. it's really nice to read for a change that a farrang stood up to one of these idiots.

    Well done OP for knocking him down.

  2. Thais are clean people!

    Never seen one was there hands after taking a crap.

    Regarding hairs in the food I would push the plate to one side and eat what else I had ordered, pay and leave and not think to much about it.

    So you eat food prepared by people who don't wash their hands after using the toilet? Because you suggest they never do this? Bullshit!

    When you know what your talking about then you can say BS.

    I've worked here as a chef for 8 years and have make them wash there hands everytime they go the the bathroom. You've no idea!

    Not all restaurants have a chef who makes them clean there hands.

  3. I hate to say it but ......

    Thailand considers all foreigners visitors, here on sufferance.

    Therefore

    We foreigners, in turn, must view all relationships with Thai people as temporary.

    I love my wife and kids, but if I get chucked out, or can't fulfill the visa extension requirement one year, I will have to leave the wife and children. It appears to be what the Thai government wants, who am I to argue with a government.

    Leave the wife and children? You sound about as nice as the OP!

    Jeez, no wonder westerners have a hard time here with people like you about

  4. So in this case the Cayman was insured first class, which means the victim's mother can file for additional compensation from Bangkok Insurance (who insured this car). Furthermore, if there is some lawyer kind enough to take on this case, the victim's family can also pursue criminal charges against the car owner for even more compensation.

    Do you think the Thai legal system and a powerful corrupt insurance company will ever pay anything more than a very token sum to a Laotian migrant worker? I'd be surprised if they don't just get the family deported to save a few baht.

    Now you are being silly. They may appear to be callous but they aren't totally mercenary.

    200,00 baht will go a long way in Laos anyway so whatever the victim's family chooses to accept, don't forget that this acceptance was not forced on them.

    The Death of there Daughter was forced upon them though! but never mind 200k will make it better!

    you sound like you are related to the Porsche owner.

  5. Put 2 and 2 together.

    The car was NOT stolen.

    Anyone wealthy enough to own a Porsche...

    ... is wealthy enough to make the ...

    ... problem go away...

    (My guess)

    This is the last you have heard of this story in the news.

    Nobody goes around stealing a Porsche in Thailand.

    What do you know??

    I would say he is correct 100%. after living here for 8 years and seeing things first hand, this is how it works.

    A mate of mine ran a guy down once a few years ago and killed him outright, he had to pay a couple of hundred thousand to sort it out. So yeah, I think he knows!
