(More) incentives sought for tourism

 

Work on it guys! You are failing miserably!

Is it "Butcher a Farang Week" again?

That'll be 500 baht.

They obviously have so much money they dont need tourists?

almost a dead 'hero'... hope he got the girls number

First rule, don't interfere with a fight between Thais, especially men and women.

Did they impound the attacker his car and phone and auction it as a start for the financial compensation to the victim or doesn’t that work that way around?

so the 24 yr old thai man stabbed him out of jealousy  ???

yes ,  life is so fragile at times .....  can be here one minute and gone the next

“Chanin was taken to Khao Lak Police Station where he admitted to the stabbing but claimed he did it in self-defence,” Maj Charan reported.

Self-defence?
He stabbed the australian 12 times
What a rubbish.

Hope the stabber does not get only a 500 Baht penalty.
That's more of a murder attempt and serious assault.
Prison sentence is definitely appropriate here.

YEP!!!  Welcome to LOS.  Have fun!

Slap on the hands and off you go.

Nothing will happen.

The farang is not dead (yet) so the tourist numbers are not going down.

and a wai dont forget that or is that just for thais who get stabbed

Title should be:  "THAI man attempted to KILL Australian." 

 

People otherwise could believe that it's only farangs doing crime. (Thank you BIG JOKE!)

But then again: Thai murderers and rapists are very busy this season.

Every time a Thai is arrested someone will give the exact same comment.  How about something new and poetic.  BTW, there are nearly 400,000 Thais in prison right now who obviously didn't get away with a five hundred baht fine.

After coming here for 5 years for my holidays this place, and i meen Thailand as a whole country needs to be avoided, the junta government  have sown the seed into the Thai populations heads that the only good tourists are chinese, well the way its going thats all that will be coming soon, and bars will shut and go go places, massage shops, street hookers wont have customers, as we all know chinese only come on conducted tours, they dont patronise bars and all the rest i mentioned, nor do they go to street food shops and cafe,s. keep it up Thais as that was just another nail in the tourism coffin. for the first time in 5 years my mates and me are going to Cambodia, clean women and friendly people, not false friendly, where farang tourists are very welcomed.

Whatever you're imbibing, give it up!

 

Quite frankly, Thailand and all the decent foreign people who live ain't gonna miss piss-head farang sex tourists. 

 

Other Asian countries are gonna move towards the quality, family oriented tourists too.

Farang have money, farang pay.

Not so long ago an American attacked and killed an Australian in a bar in Pattaya. AFAIK that American, who'd served a previous sentence in the US for murder, is back home in the US. Nothing happened to him for the crime here.

 

Why do people think a fight in a bar where some Australian intervenes and gets cut for his trouble will have a different outcome for the perp?

Thailand is changing so much ,,it's a very dangerest country to go now,,,

Thailand bars 101......just walk away from any trouble, Thai ,foreigner or a mix. Just put your macho ego in your shirt pocket , pay the check bin and just leave. You'll live longer.
