Chinese tourist knocked off her motorbike in attempted rape, say Facebook posters

Posts on Facebook claimed that a young female Chinese tourist travelling alone had been sexually molested while riding a motorbike in Krabi.

 

She had been knocked off and then subjected to a rape attempt by two men before a husband and wife saved her, it was also claimed.

 

The story of the Chinese tourist - aged about 20 - came from posts by two hostels in the southern Thai resort area of Krabi.

 

In the first the owner of a hostel, Jay Boonruang, said that the tourist had stayed at her place then gone to Ao Nang for a few days.

 

On her return she was sad and had been injured.

 

She said that a man on another motorcycle had grabbed her breasts while going along the road and she had been knocked off.

 

She had to pay 1,500 baht to the rental company for the damage even though she was not at fault. The attacker just rode off laughing, she said.

 

She said that she was taken to the police but due to the fact that her English was non-existent she didn't know about the procedures at all and didn't get a report. She later flew to Bangkok where she was due to spend another 6 days.

 

She told the hostel owner that she had not told her parents.

 

However, following this post another appeared from a hostel in Ao Nang where a claim was made that the young woman was in fact subjected to an attempted rape by two men and her injuries were as a result of being dragged into some undergrowth.

 

The second post claimed that a husband and wife had arrived at the scene and stopped the rape.

 

They all called on the police to investigate and for the husband and wife to come forward and explain what they saw, reported Thai Rath who put "Amazing Thailand" in their headline.

Doubly sad because, while a western woman at 20 is a lion with different stripes, a 20 year old Chinese woman still has the mentality and experience of a 15 year old.

And how would you know?

Well unless the girl spoke a specific dialect then there would be no problem in getting a proper interpreter for her.  Mandarin and Cantonese speakers are common in Thailand never more so than now.  As for her having the mentality of a 15 year old, that is highly debatable I would have thought.  In China I always used a Chinese interpreter (many of them young female university students) and they were far more savvy than most western girls I have come across.

One offensive flame post and a reply have been removed from this thread.

Taoism: shit happens

Buddhism: if shit happens, it isn't really shit

Islam: if shit happens, it is the will of Allah

Catholicism: if shit happens, you deserve it

Judaism: why does this shit always happen to us?

Atheism: I don't believe this shit

You say lion, some say elephants.

I thought that would be obvious.

I teach in China and have a Chinese wife.

Is that sufficient?

So that includes all Chinese woman, according to you, based on the information that your married to one. My life experience has shown in all cultures some act their age, some are immature and some are more mature than their actual age. One brush does not paint everyone.

I worked in three different locations in China and never came across anything as generalised as you state.  Tend to agree with Colabamumbai on that one.

Strange and sad story,

Young Asian women usually know better than to wander around alone.

Very unusual for a Chinese girl this young to be anywhere alone.

Possibly the most banal post of the year so far, well done.

No. it's not.  Neither is it sufficient for you to know that lions do not have stripes.  Neither is it sufficient to stop you from obviously inaccurate generalising that 20-year old Chinese women have the mentality of 15-year olds.

Not my problem if you have a different perception from mine.

Very true.  Your problem isn't mine either.

Kids with a 15 y.o mentality wouldn't  be travelling alone in a foreign country. I'd say she is mature for her age. She just got unlucky.
