American tourists spend more money than Europeans in Thailand: survey
smedly replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
and so what ? apart from the fact that it is near impossible to work out what tourists are spending or what is more important - spending on it is understanable why VN gets more than a mention in this pontless piece Thailand has turned the corner to a police state since covid - I see this because I was here before covid and can compare, it is not only me obseves this what the cops and government are doing right now is ###### people off - they really are, people come here for a holiday - they do not expect to be arrested or harassed because they had a beer after 2am - what exactly are they trying to achieve by this ?, countries in SEA have been able to move on without this B# and get back to pre-covid normal - ### is wrong with Thailand -

What to do if Thai police stop you and attempt a ‘shake-down’
smedly replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
the most obvious point here is ............................."""IF""" you'd done something wrong!!! in a lot of cases you haven't and that is the problem -
What to do if Thai police stop you and attempt a ‘shake-down’

The fact they feel the need to put this out there IMO is admission and evidence they know they have a serious problem - everyone has known it for a very long time unfortunately it goes right to the top and is imossible to do anything about it can anyone imagine what would have happened to that Taiwan actress if she hadn't been smart enough to wait until she was out of the country before blowing the whistle on the Thai police - I be willing to wager she'd have been locked up or worse -
try finding one of these so called taxi's actually sober after 12am and I am serious. I see them sitting drinking at their ranks throughout the evening - I use taxi's to get home from a night out as I prefer to leave my vehicle at home when drinking, it really is shocking how many of these riders are drunker than I am in the small hours - I have a few reliable guys that I will call by phone to come to a location and take me home - they never drink - I even have a rider that is already drinking at 7pm at my condo - I am going out and they think it is ok to be drinking - I refuse to take a ride with this particular rider because they are already well oiled when I am going out. as for the battles that go on between win and bolt - there is a simple explanation - with bolt we have a defined fare that is generally much cheaper than the rip off win riders - they don't like that - they don't like the fact that if they were all working for bolt they would not be able to rip people off - that is the problem right there.

if local cops attended this scene first - then anything is possible - I am pretty certain that whatever we have read about this so far is fiction - the can say whatever they like and nobody is in a position to question it details like who found him are seriously lacking in this "story" I remember someone compiling a dossier of Koh Tao mystery deaths and it is compelling - the biggest and most talked about on here was Hanna and David - don't want to get into that one but that was the biggest stitch up I have ever witnessed in my life - there were so many things wrong in so many ways
-
so what happened to him assume everything you have been told or read is BS unless you actually attended and saw with your own eyes - then sorry but they are just words, they can say and report whatever or what they are instructed to say and report, does not mean it is fact, did this guy have a gf, I wonder where she is ................. in hiding ?, in fear

Policemen ‘Using Free Time To Escort Chinese Tourist’
smedly replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
you are missing the point, they are not police in that capacity, off duty means "off duty" - if you had any clue about policing you would understand exactly what I am talking about just leave leave it there, no point in discussing it further
