55Jay Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 If you're a farang, act scared and cooperate, and you can give the Thai cop a bung instead of going to plizon. If you're a Thai "net idol" and put up a fuss because it is ridiculous, even in Pattaya, you get hauled off to the cells. Over an E-cig. And it all, apparently, still, boils down to e-cigs aren't taxed. This is about money. And stubborn, pig headed morons in uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happyman58 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Funny Vaping you could 10 years, Feeding the fish you could 100,000 Baht fine, But police officers doing corruption you get transferred to an inactive post. Now, what would you say is the biggest crime committed amongst the three I have written down? Corruption I would say but it has the least consequences.

ostyan Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Absolutely correct. Killing a cop the sentence is nothing at all, not even trial, killing your husband, after a death sentence, you can go home, than abroad, killing tourists on an island, burmeses did it. Smoking an e- cigarette 10 years on secure prison. I 'd vote for death penalty telling the truth, but Thailand is a law follower country and consequent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes because we are not obsessed at all with those questions and many other by the way... like Thai roads are pure madness, the corrupted police force farce most Thai women are or where bar girls we farangs are walking ATM Thai smile is only hypocrisy Sorry but we also do not give a damn about the double pricing the list is too long to list here, so I stop there without forgetting to add to never forget our every day's sense of humour, and bonhomie I am sure that some happy members will recognise themselves for those whose liver has made even more bile because of my words .

mikebell Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Meanwhile in Pattaya kicking a tourist in the head gets you a 500 baht fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattjock Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 As far as I understand from the Tobacco Products Control Act 2506 there is no problems using vaping or sisha as long as it is not used in a non smoking area. What is illegal is importation, sale and manufacture of these products. So, unless they can prove that you have imported or manufactured these things these things there is nothing illegal about it. The maximum penalty for importing, selling and manufacturing is 100,000 Baht, there can not be any prison sentence.

That is what I was trying to say before. Making a big deal out of people Vaping but kicking somebody in the head no importance. The guy was unlucky he got a 500 Baht fine. Just a wai and all is forgotten would have been sufficient. Cops must have been short on funds that day to continue the card game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Some really funny comments on here but really the prisons are full already.This is one of the stupid laws that Thailand will not back down on for loss of face but rather than a prison sentence 10,000 Bht fine will do so it is just a money making exercise in the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
