inactiveposter Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Maybe if they confess, the “hefty” fine will be reduced by half.Sent from my iPad using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a motor accident with a Thai motorcyclist. The guy only had one leg. The other was false. The police decided he was in the wrong and wanted to fine him 1400 Baht but decided not to cuz he was so poor. May be these firework hoarders can plead poverty and get the fine quashed also?

Gandtee Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Thailand's answer to Guy Fawkes. Near City Hall as well. Baht 1000. That should put a stop to gunpowder plots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PETERTHEEATER Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 They estimated the stockpile weighed over 120,000 kilograms. Which would make it 120 tonnes and not 120 tons, dumbos! What the heck, That much black powder stacked in a public neighbourhood is an accident waiting to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
