No wonder among my colleagues "backpacker" teachers are so disparaged. What losers, some of them. Others are just naive, starry-eyed little undergraduates who think they can earn their way around the world imparting their world language. And they spend their time in Soi Cowboy?? Anyway it's too late to start a career in EFL with any kind of gainful employment no matter what your qualifications--unless you think $2000 a month in China is a great deal. Probably good for 25-year-olds who want Chinese gfs. Can't blame them there. I married a Chinese (from KL). nice slur against english teachers in general, however , had you read the article, you would likely be aware that these weren't run-of-the mill undergraduate transient english teachers, but rather exclusively people of various colours and natinalities staying in thailand living and working illegally under cover of a series of spurious types of employment. but i suppose that's hardly relevant when you have an axe to grind.

Popular Post trianglechoke Posted February 28, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 28, 2018 Many people are calling racism. I don't see that at all. This is smart policing. Rather than forcing police to stop and search 'colour' based on population..... As London police have to and the result is massive jumps in certain crimes because the cops are not allowed to stop and search the obvious targets. Thailand's police are correct this time........... Do you guys have any idea how unusual the sentence is???? Especially when it is actually correct???? The cops have been observing and recording for a few years. Pretending to not give a shit. They now have a MASSIVE data base and loads of footage of who has been doing what and it's Som Nam naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa time. Bangkok is better without such scum 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thais should grant you a knighthood for tirelessly doing "a great job trying to bring the country out of the dark ages" as you put it. LOL, your name betrays your bias. There are many many illiterate drifters from western countries also who moonshine as teachers in various asian countries, to pursue their passion for mongering, alcohol, drugs etc. Just coming from a native english speaking nation is not the end of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antioc Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Thumbs up to the Royal Thai Police. No doubt quite a bit of intelligence work goes in before the raids take place. Dark people aren't exempt from police attention and if they have become a major problem for Thailand then raids and arrests are in order. I would like to know how many from bordering countries were among the lot arrested. A breakdown would have thrown more light on the problem as I suspect there are far more from those countries than we think. Being African or Indian makes it hard to blend in but coming from Laos etc makes it much easier and far more work for the Police Intelligence Units.

DonaldBattles Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 If the immigration rules and laws were tighten up you could dramatically reduce the number of criminals they let in. But doing so would damage Bangkok sex industry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it they go on round ups of "dark skinned" people at least a couple times a year and always in the same areas? Not exactly new news.
