why would these sex pats care about Politics if they are just here for just the cheap sex.

Yes, They are happy because Thailand is a cheap place to live, the weather is beautiful and the women.

Just amazing they've got so much rebuilt/reopen already. In a western country the company would still be trying to get a construction/rebuild permit, tied up in court over claims/insurance, etc.

I agree with you there!

Please Samram, give me a break, the majority of foreigners benefit Thailand then the law breakers, so get your logic right! You are worried about a few farangs that overstay in Thailand, give me a break. You are also a half kiwi too!

DON'T COMPARE AMERICA'S JUDICAL SYSTEM WITH THAILAND'S. AMERICA'S SYSTEM IS TEN TIMES BETTER PLUS YOU GET RIGHTS UNLIKE IN THAILAND.

Go home Benny.

Please go home now as you can.

SOE can arrest you again, and this time, there may be no trial.

THIS IS WHY THAILAND IS ALL F*CKED UP TODAY BECAUSE THAIS' SEEM TO SIT BACK AND LET THE GOVERNMENT DO WHATEVER IT WANTS. TO ALL THE FARANG ARSE KISSERS, THIS IS ABOUT SOMEBODY'S RIGHTS BEING DENIED. YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE INVOLVED IN THE EVENT, BUT AT LEAST GIVE THE MORAL SUPPORT AND STOP BEING IGNORANT.

Buddha has no respect for greedy people! The reds are better than the Yellows. I hope you change your mind. I mean the reds are not all the good either, but better than the Yellows.

PAD are the trouble makers. They are anti-foreigner and are greedy! Sonithi should be in Jail!

Rucharee, you are sound like a Yellow Shirt Sonithi Lover! Without Farangs, you or your fellow Thais would never be able to speak English first of all. You should thank all the farangs for being in Thailand that teach English. Second of all, the yellow shirt military leaders are the ones killing people not the farangs or the reds. Stop being ignorant!

This guy is brilliant, if he spoke Thai, he would be perfect for the red shirt movement. This guy has more guts than all the dumb ignorant arse kisser foriegners in Thailand! What is wrong with foreign influence that is helping the people of Thailand. Wake UP people, The Yellow shirts are more anti-foreigner than the reds. The yellow shirts are the ones in power; they are controlling the government!

Well, I am sure he is the father and based on the picture the mother is Thai. The mother has no right to deny the father the right to the child. She is not the judge or she thinks because this is Thailand and the father is a foreigner that she is above the law. In the west , she would be in jail. In fact Westerners have no rights in Thailand unlike the west. The only thing is that Thailand is cheaper than the west.

Wake up ball park, Don't blame Thaksin for that. This is the governemnt officials in office. The current PM is just as guilty, he operates the same as Thaksin in that sense. He is the one who turned around the refuguees from Thailand and left them on a boat. In fact in a BBC interview, he made serveral racial statements that he thinks the refuguees should not be in Thailand because they are illegal immigrants. How heartless, MR. British educated PM. If he was running for office in Britain and made this statement he would not be in office. In fact, Thaksin was more foreign investment friendly compared the current PM and the red shirts with Sonithi, which he is very anti-foreigner.

The current unelected unpopular Gov't needs to go. We need Taksin back like the good olde days. The Current PM may have been born in the Uk and educated at Oxford, but is a phony. The Military are the ones really ruling the country. Sontee is a trouble maker since 2005, he needs to be arrested.

Leave Khun Thaksin alone he is a good man. It is the yellow shirts and sontee, and miltary that are the trouble makers. The current PM is another yellow shirt arse kisser. His Oxford education and being born in the Uk do not make him a better person. It is just a con job. WAKE UP EVERYBODY!

When asked why Phuket was chosen as a port of call for all five ships, Mr Davies explained that Phuket was the destination of choice among crew members due to the island’s diverse options in entertainment. That sentiment was confirmed by other crew members who said that they always receive a warm welcome from the locals in Phuket.

Yeah very diverse in entertainment options-bar hookers, massage hookers, freelancer hookers, bar brothels hookers, and regular brothels hookers. They also have three choices of people to have sex with-girls, lady boys, or men. The locals receive the sailors with a warm welcome beacuse they get to double their prices more than the usual ripe offs and they see dollars signs.

All you guys that sold your prperties overseas and bought land and built houses for your Thai wives, just enjoy it while you can. Eventually you will loose it. 99% of cases will end up in separation. These girls are too smart now... All those 65+ pensioners that sell their assets overseas and buy land and house for their 20 year old Thai wife.... COME ON!

You would spend at least 5 million to get anything you would call home. You can use that same amount to rent a 4-5 star hotel room for 10 years.... and really enjoy yourselves... but then I suppose you wouldnt get a 20 tear old bride living in a hotel... you must pay the parents, the brothers, the sisters, the whole town, buy the land buld the house, have your EXPENSIVE wedding party for the whole town, then have just as an expensive party for your house party.... to enjoy that 20 year old flesh for a while...

So stop your complaining you know the laws... YOU CANT BUY ANYTHING.... if you do think of it as agift and it wont hurt when you walk away from it... which you will eventually...

Why do you have to stick with one girl! All you have to do is live in a flat in Bangkok and pick up a girl at a massage palour or bar everyday and pay her like that.

It is beneficial for the elite ruling class to keep foreigners from owning land. In this manner they can amass large amounts of land for themselves, fix prices and keep tenants. The typical feudal model.

Foreigners push up prices, increase competition and bring unwelcome attention to things like laws, human rights and other unfairness. In short, they are a nuisance.

The biggest landowners in the country make a lot of their billions from rent and while they are in control or remain so influencial the laws regarding foreign ownership aren't ever going to change.

They don't pay any tax either.

The game is loaded.

Xenophobia and Nationalism are merely used as tools by the elites to control the populus and to support their premise that 'evil foreigners' shouldn't own hallowed Thai soil.

Of course the benefits of allowing foreigners into the market are kept quiet from Somchai the farmer and as such he must continue to tend to his rice paddies, borrowing money he can never repay using his land as collateral, until the fateful day comes when he loses his land to the rich landowners and moneylenders.

Viva la revolution.

That is 100 percent correct! I was waiting for somebody to figure it out!.

It's a new type of work. Instead of the traditional drug runner, we have the fake passport runner.

Foreigners no longer receive the dealth penalty anymore, just life. That is the maximum sentence. The women prisons' are better than the men's prisons.

Oh come on don't be so cynical. We the uneducated masses have no need for this information, it's far too complex for us simpletons to be able to understand and it only concerns our health, nothing important.

So, shut up, grow rice and if you get sick no one will know, the problems will disappear. We know what is good for you

The issue here is the principle of with holding information from the public, rather than the content of that information.

The point is that the Thai Gov't does not want a panic and overreactions

in the country. It has nothing to do with uneducated masses. I hope they still release information about having to prevent it and not being too restrictive on the information.

The only way to solve this problem is to give the three southern muslim provinces autonomy from Bangkok. Make it an autonomies region of Thailand. It would be Thailand's first if it happens.

I did offer them the 100 Baht, but they said, "Mai dtaai." I did not feel like going to the Sataanee Tamruat, so I gave in to their demands. After this event it never happenned again though. I know better now. I spoke fluent Thai with them. Actually, they were happy when they learned I can speak Thai so well. I should have just played the tourist role. They did ask me what I was doing here. I told them I was teaching. They said do you have a work permit, I said everything is at my Flat. They said, that they did not care about me workig here legally or ilegally, they just wanted the fine money for not having the passport.

You have seen the light

This is Thai on Thai and as far as I know farangs are not normally involved in this sort of thing but its wise not get involved in anything like this in my humble opinion.

It happens in the UK too believe or not!

Listen Mate, There is a big difference. In UK this is a total criminal act. In Thailand this is a defacto criminal act. The other difference is that the cops in the UK get off their <deleted> and investigate the matter, not like the Thai Police who look for tea money to investigate the crime.

Ratabaan Thai need to extend the free tourist visas like they did before. That one way. Try to get the major airlines to promote lower fares from other countries outside of Asia.

What is your point? You mention the story of the Bangkok Hilton like it has some relevance? I just said we should talk about Thailand and you insist I find out about.... a story in Thailand. Are you missing a clue here?

Well, I think you name yourself correctly, Mr laughman. Dude, The Bloke was treated ten times worse then the Thai bloke in the Roong Payabaan now. Read the Book. The point is they waited for now to bring this up, when the Irish Bloke experienced this in the late 90's. He was electro-shocked in the male private area and tortured like he was a terrorist confessing to an act of that nature. Wake Up, Mr Laugh man!
