I didn´t feel any at the time. The size hasn´t changed much, just the "intensity" of the red seems to vary over time. 

 

I went to the pharmacy today and the pharmacist sold me a Betanovate-N cream for skin inflammation. 

 sounds like you live in the sticks somewhere? How does your wife, Thai neighbours judge this? These people have been with all kinds of eery things for ages and thus know to analyse and treat

these days, more often than ever fate also corners the real a...holes "another bum hit the dust..."

three people were arrested but the headline is black tourist.. not professional at all. last week it was black criminals but they all had visas... stop being racists and provide the right news

"stop being racist" ... it would suffice already to not talk about a black tourist but just about "a tourist" - and then publish his photo

A guy from Cameroon staying 5 years in Surat Thani is pretty impressive as he would not be able to easily blend in within the community, especially if he were making a living in Thailand. 

no problem being one of these sometimes pesky African "Sports Students"; made a living at night time only (blends with his surroundings nicely...)

Fact. There is very little evidence and the t-shirt was a very, very long shot even in the best of circumstances.

 

Chances are this young lady was assaulted and I would wager it was by an opportunistic, non-Thai, drunk, stoned, gap-year, backpacking piece of sh!t.

 

Stating 'lack of evidence' doesn't say it didn't happen and handily obviates the necessity of the former head of the Tourist police following up on his obnoxious threat to prosecute the victim for lying.

another fricken British insurance scam...

But he didn't take into consideration that her father worked for the Defense Department and had a whole lot of friends who do "dirty deeds" just for the fun of it.  A team of 6 went in under cover of darkness, killed him, got her and the boys out and back to the States safely

hush hush, we know a lot, don't we?

Should any police personnel take/confiscate my passport the first thing I would do for sure would be rushing to an immigration office telling them and explaning why I have no passport with me any more. 

those who made you minus your passport will heftily hinder you to rush anywhere...

I think they are trying to say that she didn't want to go into a falang room alone.

which would, however, not be normal for a Thai female in Pattaya

I have several friends, too poor to stay in Thailand, who now rotate around Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Philippines.

Seems to be some confusion here.  A news item yesterday place Thailand #4 in SE Asia as a tourist destination.

Confusion? don't think so; it is solely up to the magazine scribblers to invent percentages, places, people - it all depends on the back cheques...

i'd like to know how easy it is with a bit of money to remove one of those tag monitoring things they've made him wear and what restrictions he has apart from leaving thailand. he'll more than likely be out partying in tonglor tonight i reckon

Did the Thai police refuse to record the original complaints?

 

surely not: it was a complaint about 2 nicked golden fountain pens (higher brand), duly taken note of  --  at that time, no other wrongdoings or niceties were reported to them

I can see their point, there have been loads of white foreign bogus volunteers in CM getting VISAs.

You pay an agent, they set you up with a charity, you get a 1 year VISA for turning up for 1 or 2 days.

I've known at least two guys in the past who did this (both under 50s).

 e.g.: Once you "subscribe" with one of the influential, prosperous NGOs in PnomPenh next thing you get is a Toyota Land Cruiser (6cyl., big thing) and sufficient funds for hanging out every night at Riverside, sipping red wine, going for Cambo chicks...good life, indeed. Seen plenty of these French passport holders (port of origin: Algeria, Tunesia and the like)
