This statement is exactly one of the off things here, the police are here to enforce the law and give a fine, if called for. Not for patronizing macho behavior to citizens or tourists. The penalty is the fine, nothing more. Its uncalled for the policy to then take it on themselves to bully up unless the person becomes violent or outright insulting. The French are not off, nor anybody else, for resisting this often rogue behavior by then on top, corrupt officials.  Upcoming Thai elections will be most interesting to see if the Thai people at once stand up to increasing militaristic behavior, dictating and lecturing through force its citizens. Its the few people which stand up and resist the elites and those in power, at least sometimes, which make la difference.

ok, im guessing you are French with such eloquent words? 555

but this statement from you will not help anyone really, when you say it to a Thai policeman..

 

and he be like

" arai <deleted> wah "

5555

Police did not make an offer. Police stated what the fine was( in their opinion) Then it’s up to a person to accept it or to negotiate or to decline

 

40000 is not an outrages out of the blue amount. This is the amount police generally aaks according to a number of reports out there and not only in Phuket.

 

not too long ago in Pattaya a Russian couple was asked for 100 000 , which they refused, so were arrested and outcome of the story unknown .

 

not saying it’s correct amount for vaping, just saying this is the amount they start with. 

 

Those who who did pay, usually say around 10-20k 

'40000 is not an outrages out of the blue amount. '

 

Most people would say it is outrageous and is out of the blue.

A failed extortion attempt and then the face saving and punishment, putting her through the courts, wasting everyones times for what amounts to a crime the court considered was worth just US$26

 

The BiB screwed her over out of spite. 

It`s a very easy way to avoid just that kind of problems: DON`T break the law...

That's being arrested and placed in a holding cell while you're being processed.

 

Very different situation. Just check out her facebook page, there has been no jail time. She's still posting crap there every day now, lol
