Any repercussions are down to you Thailand. You deported innocent refugees to a country that has committed genocide to the people of their race.

Looking at the way that the robber runs out of the shop, it could be a woman.

If that really was to be his first try of drugs, hopefully this painful lesson will keep him off them for life.

The police caught them and they paid up. Following a police report filed on February 22, Koh Phangan Police quickly located the Pakistani tourists, who then agreed to pay the 500-baht ($15) service fee.... อ่านข่าวต้นฉบับได้ที่ : https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/2025/02/22/foreign-couples-haircut-scam-foiled-at-koh-phangan-salon/

Well done Taiwan Nothing that China does is an 'accident'. Everything is very carefully planned and implemented. Confiscate the ship and gaol the crew.

I always ask the doctor to write down the medicines that they are prescribing and then I order it at the local (independent) pharmacy. The pharmacist is much cheaper than the hospital, and she gives me a discount on the retail price. The added bonus is that she also happens to be good looking and is fun to talk to.

Whilst this is a start, Thailand still has a long, long way to go if it is serious about modernising its laws.

I have made plenty of trips to China thank you - I ran an office there. This article isn't about the fact that these folk may or may not be terrorists. There has been no trial. It's not even about the fact that Thailand has held them in inhumane conditions for almost 11 years with little attempt to return them to China. The article is about the fact that Thailand states that they went willingly, when there is lots of evidence that they didn't. Will these Uigurs have a trial in China? Almost certainly not. In the eyes of the Chinese government, all Uigurs are guilty regardless.

So, if we believe what is being said here - no one did a dine and dash before the visa free policy?

Good point. If the rental people have it, I am sure that they will have thrown it away by now. It is illegal to keep the passports. The proposed 300 baht tourist tax is 'supposed' to provide insurance for visitors. I bet that in this poor lad's case, they would not cover him either.

Now Thailand is following it's real leader, XI in consonantly telling lies when accused of wrongdoing.

Thailand managing to shoot itself in the foot - again, in its rush to appease its Chinese master. Let's see if the tourist numbers from the USA and Japan suddenly dip. As for that place on the UNHRC council - Thailand should be removed. Does a 'security alert' invalidate insurance policies?

My local restaurant has been struggling and on a minimum staffing level. There is the owner, who cooks, and a kitchen helper. The restaurant does a lot of food delivery meals but the place itself is usually empty, so when I go in, I always help myself to the beer rather than interrupt the owner from cooking the meals. When the owner has a moment, she will come and say hi and ask me what I want. After 20+ years of eating there, she knows that I will pay. Best pad krapow moo ever.

Of course, the illegal installers of these cables will not be able to copy the labels.

Well done to the folk who published the video and named them. The company may not have realised that they had a problem. They do now.

Many Thais cannot count easily. Especially some of the older ones.

Typical Hamas cowards hiding behind masks and hoping to remain anonymous. Throw them in gaol for supporting Hamas's stated goal of genocide of all Israelis.

Well, there is a surprise. Thai government tell the BOT to drop interest rates. BOT eventually capitulates and does so. Thai government borrows more to fund vote buying.

Thailand treated them very badly in all of the years that they have been in the 'detention' centre. A good (and very sad) description of their troubles time is here. Hang your heads in shame Thailand. https://apnews.com/article/uyghur-china-deportation-thailand-xinjiang-human-rights-d6f813654cf40ce464bc19203a226de0

Well done citizens - keep up the pressure. More bad publicity for the owners please.

In my experience - yes. Often the 'major' wives know about each other. They become angry when a younger 'unknown' one is involved.

Unfortunately this problem is caused by the Thai people asking them for money. Lots of officials in Thailand are corrupt. Many want their 'hand in the till'.

I was told that it is illegal to kill snakes here in Thailand.

Surely this is not the case. Multiple stories here on AN in recent weeks/months about how well exports are doing. The government just want cheap credit so that they can borrow more money to buy votes. Headline from the BP yesterday.

And the scantily clad girl is there because?
