Unfortunately this type of news has started to become the norm and always involves property deal, expat and murder. It was only a couple of weeks ago that the papers reported about the poor bloke who was blown away in Hua Hin over a property dispute. The way that business disputes are often settled here do not give many people confidence in making the effort to do business and that is dangerous in current unsure economic times.

What a bloody idiot. No sympathy whatsoever. As an Aussie this kind of stuff gives me the absolute sh**ts. Now, of course, if he had the looks of Sharpell Corby there would be a pack of Aussie journos following the plight of this guy for the next two years ...

Awful.

Just returned to Australia for Christmas and NYE from BKK. Yet another NYE tragedy in Bangkok.

I hope that no Thai Visa member has lost a loved one or friend.
