It looks like the tourist started the fight: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=196091016592185 -
I guess the chinese invasion will be absent this low season, since the real estate market back home, where most have their savings placed, is in the middle of a collapse.

Xonax replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Increasing prices may not have an effect on drug addicts, but will certainly prevent many people from becoming drug addicts. -
Policies to increase income critical to tackle high household debt
Xonax replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Higher wages means higher production costs and inflation, which will quickly eat the wage increase and more for workers with the lowest income. -

Fugitive British National Arrested in Thailand over £7m Fraud Case
Xonax replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
I guess that Interpol had sent an arrest warrent to Thailand and that he was well aware, that he would have been arrested, if he went to Immigration to extend his stay or tried to exit Thailand. Sadly we expats have no legal way to watch tv from our home country and have to choose between being a pirate or watch Thai-tv. -

Monorail disruption hampers newly launched Yellow Line service in Bangkok
Xonax replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
The speed has gone up a little since the first day of trial. But it is still a very bumpy ride and definitely not safe for elderly people to be standing, when the younger population have occupied all seats. -
Chinese tourism deterred by tourist scams in Thailand, says Atta
Xonax replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The worst scam in Thailand is the dual pricing in national parks and other places. -
From the original article: "Astonishingly, the Chinese employer even provided them with 900,000 baht to cover their transportation expenses" "If they wished to return home, they would be required to pay a repatriation fee of 190,000 baht to the employer" So still a good profit then, unless they flew in a private jet!

Grab taxi driver threatens to harm former Thai singer
Xonax replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
A few weeks ago, when I took a taxi home from Suvarnabhumi airport, the taxi driver was on 2 phones at the same time. He used some kind of app to record and send voice messages and had to press the screen when he was speaking. Then the persons in the other ends would reply and the conversations would go on and on. In my thousands of taxi rides in Thailand, not a single driver has met my expectations, that the driver should be polite, not be on the mobile phone, not listen to the radio or watch a movie and keep both hands at the steering wheel when driving with passengers. -

Govt Affirms More Transit Systems to be Ready in Few Years
Xonax replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The Yellow Line system has postponed announced opening dates so many times, so that when they do actually open, nobody will believe it. For years motorists have been held hostage in severe traffic jams, while most of the time few or no workers have been seen around the cordoned off parts of the road.
