Foreign mafia haha more like the local  Thai and Russian mafia. 

Having a Bussiness in a tourist area is ok but not a go go bar or a freelance bar asking for trouble 

Rule number 1 once you  have half naked ladies and a shelf full of booze in your shop your <deleted>....

An Australian gets whacked in Pattaya and somehow the Americans get thrown in for good measure, eh?

Whenever a crime is committed in my Thai locale I am told that some "mafia" have been at work.

It creates the illusion that there are the super evil and organised "mafia", and then every other Thai person.

 

A Thai would never do this, unless they were mafia, and that isn't really a Thai.

 

Thing is, for this to be the case, I think it would mean Thailand has the highest proportion of mafia in the world.

If he got a shit kicking in his own bar you would think he has CTV ,

Really? I heard something not long ago in regard to LA food trucks, but nothing or nowhere else, except New York's sordid past...

Strange that Trump didn't get a mention too.  Surely one of the Clinton fans could have made a connection. 555

Pretty common in hospitality anywhere, when you finish work and want to unwind with a couple of drinks, usually the last place you want to do it is in the place you have spent the last 10 hours in.I always find an alternative "local".

[shoalguy73]

The guy hit is a mate of mine. It was an argument he had at another club with a mate. He then went back to his bar. Afterwards the other owner from LK Metro came down with a couple of Thai guys who hit him from behind.The attack itself was not in LK Metro

Never a good thing to upset Thais in a bar.never know what will happen.no matter who you are

Upsetting some frangs can be nastier.

Yep.  Why not. Although I suppose to be fair I should include the Irish and the Italians as well.

To be fair?  Sure, include everyone and talk about school lunches for children.

Sounds like he needs new "mates".

Not sure that qualifies as an MB gang...heard some people refer to them as more like the Village People or rotary club on wheels.  They are more into charity than anything else.

Lk metro is still controlled by a certain type of foreigner, police cleared it out a few years ago after a friend of mine , who had a business in Lk metro had a fall out with another business owner. My friend (Australian) was shopping at Thepisit market and as he was on his way back to his car , was approached by a group of Thai guys who bundled him into the rear of a car . However as the car slowed and turned into Sukumvit he threw himself from the Car onto the road and escaped . A week later after further problems he flew back to Australia with his family and left his business. 

Some years ago there was a farang,  might haven been another aussie , who voluntarily got into a car with  some Thai  'business associates'  up around Victory Monument  area, Bangkok.  Never seen or heard of again.The witnesses just faded away as usual.

 

I dont fancy being in any beer bar owners shoes (flip flops) in Thailand.

Your life can turn upside down overnight.

Mafia?  Sounds like typical Thai media xenaphobia towards foreigners. If the rebels or bandidos had come calling to serve out punishment i doubt if he would of walked out, albeit groggily.

He's pissed off some local  soi  bar  farangs  & Thais.

Yep, I agree, probably went and pissed off some opposition bar owners, and they gave him some thanks in return. As a fellow Aussie, I'd thought he would have more brains. Most of us enjoy other bar workers visiting but never go out of our way to piss them off, Need to pull him aside and tell him to treat this as one of life's experiences...
