none of which describes what is going on, Idiot Putin wants them to fight........I was going to say - to defend Russia, but that's not really what is going on .... is it, nobody attacked Russia, they will not win in Ukraine, if idiot Putin hasn't realised that yet then the excuse for a man is a fool

Naughty foreigners record 180 criminal charges this year in Phuket
smedly replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
paying a fine is not the issue, fines have always been there, the issue here is getting threatened with "red/yellow card" and what comes with that for Serious offences like DUI already come with hefty penalties like large fines and jail, I think foreigners should be deported for committing serious crimes after normal penalties under law are served, This red/yellow card abuse is additional to that, you now run the risk of getting deported seemingly for not wearing a helmet or for other equally minor infringments - this has all come about because Phuket police were unable to deal with foreign/thai scooter mobs racings around the streets under normal lawful means so they have invented something outside of the normal application of current law and enforcement -
Naughty foreigners record 180 criminal charges this year in Phuket
smedly replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
this is so open to abuse do any of these so called crimes actually go to court or do police decide on guilt ?, giving police that sort of power is highly problematic, it bypasses absolutely everything, what makes it worse is the actual penalty "red or yellow card" which is not clearly defined, what they have done is created a whole new criminal system that targets foreigners only without proper legal definitions or accountability, I do agree with law enforcement but this is verging on abuse and discrimination on a whole new level, if the law is not fit for purpose then change it -

Pattaya Police Holds Press Briefing into Massive Indian Scam Syndicate Bust
smedly replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
these scams began when large firms outsourced their call center support to India, they have become quite cleaver at what they do - it is not unusual to have someone with an Indian accent on a call center, what they do is identify known customers of paid services/online shopping etc - they accumulate this personal information either from existing call center accounts or from the companies themselves were customer data is shared by planted employees or paid for with bribes, once they have this personal data they can then target mostly vulnerable elderly people and trick them through various methods to steal from them - huge sums are involved I remember someone asking me about the number Indian eateries around pattaya that never seem to have customers - seems they have the answer -
Radioactive Caesium-137 found in smelting works - factories sealed off
smedly replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand
it could have been smelted and ended up in anything metal, scary -
wow and no actual details given of the alleged offences, this is so open to abuse, countries have laws that are well defined and understood and supposedly enforced by police - this scheme just bins the whole lot and gives police powers outside the law against foreigners
