snoop1130 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Chinese ‘beggars’ arrested across Bangkok By The Nation Six Chinese people have been arrested for begging across Bangkok, Thai immigration chief Pol Maj-General Surachet Hakpal told a press conference on Wednesday. Huang Yunlin, 54, Huang Genhua, 30, Lei Fengjun, 44, Li Baishan, 47, Lin Yajun, 34, and Lai Meilin, 32, were arrested near Ari and On Nut Skytrain stations late last week. They were charged for begging on the street, an offence under the Beggar Control Act 2016 which is punishable with up to one month in jail and a fine of Bt10,000. Police found they were using tourist visas and reportedly over-staying for several months. They allegedly stayed together at a hotel in Soi Inthamara. Police said they would bring large amounts of coins to change into notes at convenience stores in the area before splitting the proceeds among themselves at the hotel.

There are beggers all over Bangkok. Will this endorse their love affair with Chinese tourists. Open another fast track lane for them at the airport I say.

oldrunner Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I sincerely hope that they get the full measure of pleasure in spending 30 days in a Thai jail, that's in addition to the 10,000 Bhat fine. May have to give day passes so they can beg for the 10K fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowisee Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 This is only the tip of PRC iceberg. There is more crime, corruption, economic disruption and social conflict coming. The YT videos of Chinese Misbehaving are [not] funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
