Shaunduhpostman Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 (edited) If sitting on a ledge is such a big deal, then, if these guys were seriously concerned about it, they would be considering all the 10,000 other infractions and offenses that tourists are committing at Wat Pra Kaew probably daily and declare the place off limits to tourists. If they actually slap fines or even jail these tourists for what the authorities well know was unintended offensive behavior, then to continue to keep the temple open to tourists borders on entrapment, lending another shade of meaning to the term "tourist trap." It is Wat Pra KAew's job to ask tourists not to do things that are offensive to Thais. Look doods, you are welcoming people to bring money into your country, they can't resonably be asked to not offend you at some point, that is the deal, we graciously allow you offensive foreigners to come to our country spend money and the price is we have to put up with your loud mouth, freewheeling ways. If the Thais seriously don't want the behavior then they don't deserve the tourists and their money. If the police were sincerely interested in fixing the problem they would be working with security staff at Wat Pra Kaew to do their jobs better and tap tourists on the shoulder and say, "Please don't do that." Its as simple as that. There is no need for some kind of ludicrous manhunt melodrama, but thats just it there is a need for that kind of melodrama which is what this is about.

Is the fine the same for Thais, or perhaps 500 Baht - same as the lower admission fee? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chama Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 I hope they are caught! Common sense would tell anyone who is thinking that this was the wrong thing to do. Still, no one reads signs.

The Deerhunter Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 (edited) Must have been an illegal (Burmese, Cambodian or Chinese) tour guide. No Thai tour guide would allow them to commit such a hideous crime. Seriously: A foreign teenager on holiday. She would have had no idea she was committing a cultural crime of such huge importance. Just wanted a pretty pic to show back home, taken in this pretty building. Question: Did she ignore any big signs in multiple languages?

sirineou Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 12 hours ago, ICECOOL said: The real issue here that this behaviour is deeply offensive to ordinary Thai's and Buddhists. Like climbing on certain statues or buildings in UK or US. In any country there are limits to behaviour. If you travel, you should respect that countries religious and legal requirements, even if you do not agree. Belittling the protection of religious and ancient landmarks shows a lot of ignorance. Deflecting, by saying the authorities are not doing this, or not doing that, so why do this, is just childish. Absolutely right my friend! Some westerners visit other countries and behave as if they are visiting Disney World , and the sites are attractions there for their entertainment. They don't realise that these sites are also functioning local institutions . Ignorant , disrespectful behaviour is not only directed at the site but also at the people who hold these sites sacred, and/or in other ways important to their identity, The look at the Thai woman's face says it all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also that warningsign to not sit there is not according international standards...which pancake designed that? I also wouldn't understand it, for me the X is to close a screen or program.

Stargeezr Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Wat Phra Kao is not a park, or a common area in Thailand, it is a religious site. If tourists cannot act respectfully, while touring this place, and ask where they can sit, or what is acceptable to do and what is not, theyare just asking for trouble. This young person and her friend are showing just how lazy and ignorant they both are. The tour guide may have been looking the other way when this clueless woman got on the ledge. Again it is both tourists who are at fault for this incident. Geezer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey421 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Now Big Joke joins the hunt for female tourist who sat on a ledge at Wat Phra Kaew The Thai police are taking the case of the female tourist pictured lying down on a ledge at the Temple of the Emerald Buddha last Sunday very seriously. Top crime buster Surachet Hakpal was featured on Channel 7 news taking a keen interest in the case alongside Phraratchawang police. The tourist and her male friend taking snapshots could face a month in jail or and/or a fine of 10,000 baht. Maj-General Surachet - the deputy commissioner of the tourist police bureau - stressed it was not just the tourists' fault. He spoke on camera saying that their tour guide or trip organizer must take a share of the blame if they did not warn the tourists about what is acceptable and appropriate behavior at sites like Wat Phra Kaew in Thailand. Another police spokesman Achayon Kraithong reiterated that such behavior was a serious offense in Thailand punishable by a jail term not exceeding one month and/or a 10,000 baht fine. Surachet - know by the moniker Big Joke (rice gruel) in the Thai media - has been seen all over this week busting Thai call center scammers in Dubai, illegal overstaying foreigners in Bangkok, trans-national criminals nationwide and now this latest incident. Channel 7 showed the cops examining CCTV and said that the tourists were believed to still be in Thailand.

I know I am a farang and my opinion is nothing but when I was visiting the Kingdom back in 2008, our guide ( Thai national ) was very explicit about the rules when visiting temples and historical gardens. No short skirts or sleeveless shirts ( makes the monks ‘confuse’ ) and never point your bare feet ( no shoes inside the temples ) at the Buddha. As well, no climbing on any parts of the temples not built for foot traffic ( this was important at the historical ruins in Ayutthaya)!!! My wife and I enjoyed our visit to the Kingdom and I hope to return someday to rekindle my love for the country. I am truly ashamed that this lady in the image has made farang even more despised in the eyes of the citizens of Thailand.
