snoop1130 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Video: Thai man slaps Japanese guy at Koh Chang ferry - police hunt on Caption: Damage to Thailand's image - 77kaoded.com A video posted on Facebook that showed a Thai man (the white haired guy with the goatee) having a go at a Japanese man at the ferry ticket office on Koh Chang. The Thai doesn't know he is being filmed as he slaps the Japanese guy who does nothing in response. The ticket lady then starts arguing with the man threatening him with the police. Ferry owner Phisoot Ratanawong said it was disgraceful. He said the Japanese man was a business owner on Koh Chang with a Thai wife and didn't deserve this. He promised to do everything he could to get the Thai man prosecuted for damaging the image of tourism in Thailand. Local police chief Pol Col Suradech Wutthisarot said the pair were arguing after the Japanese man cut in front of him in his vehicle. The case would only result in a fine, he said, but the police would make an effort to find the Thai man. Though he said it might take time.

Inn Between Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 This is a good example of what happens when you have convinced yourself that you're the most important person in the universe and someone had the gall to cut you off in traffic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you've never experienced banks and post offices, and more 20 years ago. No such thing as a queue, not even known, go for it, jostle your way to the front and talk over the top of the other customers. I recall it well. An American colleagues from my office at that time tells a story about going to the bank, eventually got to the actual counter, bank lady asks what he wanted, he explained quickly and gave the lady his bank book, passport etc. But within a second there's a mid-aged Thai lady trying to get in front of him and she has put a big wad of cash on the back of the hands of the bank teller with bank book etc., and is demanding service now. Bank lady says just a moment please, Thai lady says she wants now. Farang (speaks good Thai) asks the Thai lady to please wait a moment. Thai lady customer leans over the counter and pushes the farangs money and bankbook away and again puts her wad of cash on the hands of the bank teller. Farang (known to have a quick and hot temper) leans over grabs the wad of cash from the Thai customer, puts his hand high in the air then with some force throws his arm around in a semi-circle and slings the wad of cash all over the place. Lady customer how all over the floor etc., trying to gather her cash, other customers ignore her. Bank teller goes back to finishing the transaction for the farang and says quietly with a smirk 'geng mark' (basically 'very clever').

Gecko123 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) That was a rather affected face slap he delivered. Like he was challenging the guy to a duel or something. Guy needs to cut back on the 18th century romance novels. Maybe the lao khao too. Edited June 13, 2019 by Gecko123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

30la Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 And as always in these situations, the greatest fear is the image of Thailand in the world! It seems that the pirate is a taxi or songtaew driver. Piracy in Thailand has not been eradicated, modern piracy has moved to the mainland and pirates have become public drivers. Send all the drivers of public transport to a special school of education and behavior! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huangnon Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 (edited) Long white haired Thai guy looks like he's spent too much time in the sun. Don't know about a "business owner", looks more like a guy who spends his time shouting at passing cars and pigeons.

You got it in one there... prosecute him for damaging the image of Thailand.. never mind the assault charge !!!! The first slap you could say was a freebie... if he did it again I would have acted in self defense, twisted that pointing finger and inserted it where the sun don't shine!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AhFarangJa Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 If he has slapped me like that I would have asked the ticket lady to show him the video when he woke up, because he definitely would not have seen my fist coming.

Sonhia Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Sadly this is Thainess. Thai have become very brash, bitter, aggressive and lawless. 'I'm Thai so I can do what I like', attitude. Thai are mostly racist lacking in respect for law and order especially toward foreigners who bring a great deal of revenue to Thailand. They call Thailand 'paradise', I call it unsafe, uncaring, unfair, lawless, expensive, dictatorial, racist modern day Thailand. The Thai lady deserves credit for standing up to an aggressive hill-billy in- breed, in a prodomently male chauvinistic society, but she is one of just a very few Thai with the guts to do so and to also understand the meaning of right and wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
