jenny2017 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Police in Pattaya have denied reports that an Indian tourist was chasedoff a beach by local mafia. People in more developed countries would just call them cops, not mafia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StayinThailand2much Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 8 hours ago, webfact said: The incident occured when Baldeep Singh Gultali and a friend were eating near the beach opposite the entrance to Soi 8. Mr Gultali received a call from another Indian man called Gurwiwder Singh who asked him to transfer 3,000 baht to someone in India. Mr Gultali explained he only had 2,500 baht in his account, so Mr Singh arrange for a Thai driver to deliver an extra 500 baht so Mr Gultali could make the transfer. However, when the Thai driver arrived, he demanded a fee for having brought the money. Mr Gultali refused and a quarrel started. Mr Singh then arrived and some of his Thai assistants and the whole thing escalated as the group started brawling in the street. A group of people who work on the beach then tried to calm the situation. However, this is where the misunderstanding occurred, police say. I totally believe this story! Then again, I also believe in Santa Claus... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just a bunch of fun-loving group of Thai assistants, who love helping their Indian Boss in a quarrel. Nothing to see here just move along or we will charge you with =damaging Thai societies Image. I also say that it's unfair to say that all mafia are Italians. Just look at the tuk tuk and jet ski mafia in Phuket as two of many examples of mafia in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The term has now broadened and is commonly used to describe crime syndicates anywhere, hence Russian mafia, Thai mafia, Jewish mafia.

Flemo Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 The motor bike taxi actually showing up with the 500 baht sounds a bit strange to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gk10002000 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 This actually sounds about right based on the earlier article reported. But still, sending 3,000 baht or less than 100 USD. How is he going to send it? Western Union would charge what, 8 USD? that's a measurable percentage. Granted there are cheaper ways. Having at one time been broke and jobless, I can understand how $100 bucks can be very important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most banks in Thailand are like robbers, they steal your balance for no reason. Agreed, I tried to compare rates of Thai banks and overseas banks, 25% against 12%!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captspectre Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I truly wish tha the thai s would STOP referring to their petty, cowardly gangs as mafia! they could not shine the shoes of a mafiosi and would run hell bent for their safe space! these punks are just gangs, plain and simple. John gotti would turn over in his grave seeing a bunch of punk thai's using the term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know what the obvious replies will be, but Pattaya needs new scum. Perhaps you should seek help or counselling. You seem very confused.
