I'm sure, he claimed that he needed it for his kids' hospital bills, or, alternatively, his Esarn-based parents' sick buffalo...

No help in the schools to keep young students from passing them around...... But Thailand has the big face with Submarines and other wealth but cannot keep the school children free from 'Lice'.......... Close your eyes for a moment and try to imagine that these cops are collecting all that money to give to the public schools......... since the Thai gov't won't cover the cost of controlling those Lice in the kids hair.............. Different regimes have different priorities; obviously healthcare and education are no priorities in Thailand.

Says he has to pay off 3 different "groups" 10k per month each, and now Bangkok cops have come to Pattaya to get in on the gravy train. A French friend was paying 24K per month to Pattaya's grubbiest. (He's sold up and moving to another country with a less corrupt police force.) Every bar owner I know pays a monthly stipend. Forget cleaning up the beaches; start at soi 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take the visa issue: surely it used to be better to hand over a small envelope than go to court, get deported, and banned? One of many examples. Or alternatively play by the rules - it's not that hard - and dont encourage corruption. And save yourself some money and potential problems in the future.
