Astonishing. And fantastic news if true, and if they can deliver on it.

why? so more can come and create havoc.

"....if she fell off she would be claiming compensation."

If she fell off, the police would be scraping her body parts off the road., and the driver that hit her would be claiming compensation for blood splatter all over the front of his car. 

how gory

cheap publicity stunt that can easily wrong and end in a disaster.

cutting travel time between the two cities by 2/3  will a between the two cities and auger well for for travellers. what would be the major reasons for this trip.

Just over 2 hours of watching Thais chunder in abject misery. My missus can get seasick just watching the TV.. God help anyone on a boat with her. The Gulf of Thailand is far from being a mill pond.

will depend on the size of the boat they use. naturally the larger boats will be more stable and less likely to cause to cause side effects.

integration is the way to go. they should also try to do the same for the MRT the BTS and bus services.

Thailand is the land where I never take anything literally, even if something seems obvious. The English guy could have simply been lost, saw a parked taxi, stopped his car, walked up to the front of the taxi in the hope of asking the driver for directions, saw the driver was not there and then went on his merry way.

thank you for making my day. nice joke. ha ha ha

Stealing from one of the most upstanding members of society. How low can you get?

 

why people are known to have stolen from very old infirm persons, children and even disabled people. the world is full of scum bags.

Whenever I think I have learned about the worst farang lowlifes and scumbags there is another superlative.

 

heard the saying "not all fingers are the same". there are always the lows in any society.

CCTV works to protect the Tuk-Tuk guys. Wow. To protect tourists against Tuk-Tuk guys it's always out of order.

TIT.

if a thief got caught we should celebrate.

In addition to the theft, he should be charged for whatever that is that appears to be on his head.

whatever appears on his head is his personal right. that is no offence. the theft of course is unforgivable. he  must have know that there must be items of value in the vehicle. to steal the driver's licence is beyond any reasonable logic.

And yet the daylight robbery these same tuk tuk drivers perpetrate with their overpriced fares and boorish behaviour when on duty everyday goes completely unpunished.

Another fail for the BIB. And am not saying this idiot deserved to get his stuff stolen, but not locking his door is a pretty dumb move by any standards

the two issues cannot be compared from any angle. stealing is different from boorish behaviour or overcharging.

i would call that a baht bus not a tuk tuk.

what is in a name. the point is that the Brit stole which is shocking as the tuk tuk drivers are a close knit community and will not hesitate to collectively retaliate against offenders .this  must one stupid or utterly daring Brit.

If he is 37 need to check his passport for being original.

alternatively get the American Embassy to have it verified although the age is not a relevant factor in the case unless he is using somebody else's passport.

It seems for some people the police can't do anything right. They arrest a drug dealer and they get sneered at?

you can never please everybody. name me one who has. so take divergent views with a pinch of salt and move on.

Hmmm...simple enough .....BUT why is it they take down the little guy when it is the larger guys that would make a difference.

I know...I already know...but ......It would be interesting to hear all the reasons, valid or humorous,  as to why they do not follow the guy back to his sources and drug dealing accomplices and round them all up at once...like a bunch of cattle ....lol

Cheers

gemguy this game is not that simple. the police will certainly investigate as to how far they can go to reach the network. the offenders' houses  may also yield some clues.

When something bad happens at a university they like to mention the name, why not mention which golf driving range it happened?

not of  serious relevance but yes they could have mentioned it after the operation was performed. maybe the golf range requested withholding the information in the interest of their members. it is not a good publicity for the members or the range.

One down, several thousands to go.  A good use of police resources.  Now send the suspect to the Philipines.  

well said but why bring in the Philipines in this equation. they have a right to do things their way.

Not having to chase after ya ba dealers will be a load off for the police when the government makes it legal. Then they can concentrate on the heavy duty drugs likes shisha smoking and electronic cigarettes. This military administration has lost the plot.

making it free for all may spread the habit too far and wide in the society and make it difficult to handle thereafter.

shsiha  in original form only uses tobacco and is less harmful than cigarettes unless of course hard drugs are added in.

very reliable information followed by a neatly performed operation.

were the sellers freshmen or blatantly daring.

I fully support the raids and any secret detention, they can even torture them for all I care, they can even hold them down and shove bacon in their mouths, good to see a Government not pandering to terrorist wannabes for once.

you are right. fighting the terrorists is not an east task. they know your strength but you do not know theirs. see how tilted the battle field is. they can strike with a knife, a gun, a car , a body worn bomb and even aeroplanes. how to guess what is coming next?
