Puccini Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 The man put his foot on the banknotes, ie on an image of the King. Would it still be up to 15 years in prison if he were prosecuted for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(From a proud Brit !). Not only that, but how many posts were there accusing/implying that the thai woman was dishonestly trying to up 1K Baht to 2K baht. So 30 pages knocking Thais as well? And what about the Yanks, the French, the German bla bla bla? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said the stick he has taken on here and social media is way over the top.............some posters would have him hung, drawn and quartered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said sorry, returned the cash and as is usual for Thais, she forgave him. Story finished (fortunately for him). I don't think Brits are so bad -- most Brits I meet, I understand only about half what they're saying -- with all their mumbling, problems with rhotic R, etc. If they could just speak clear English...

balo Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 He should wear a wig and glasses when/if he enters soi Boakow , or else he will be recognized for sure. If I were in his shoes I would leave Thailand for 1-2 months until the storm has settled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoComment Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Congratulations to the Thai lady. She was kind enough not to press charges. This is s perfect example of Thai hospitality and kindness that the majority of Thai people live by. Well done to her. As for the Brit, he has been in Thailand for 2 months, he must be embarrassed with people pointing, staring and laughing at him. His family and friends must be ashamed of him. I hope he is on a plane exceptionally quickly never to return to the Kingdom again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxYakov Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Morality is what one does when one thinks nobody is or can be watching. Quote from a Tuk-tuk operator when caught throwing a styrofoam container into a storm drain: "Nobody see, nobody know." (except that I knew, but as a farang I'm a "nobody" ????)

Sydebolle Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 14 hours ago, dabhand said: Good on the old geezer? If not for the CCTV he would have got away with the theft. Just wonder how much thieving he had done over his lifetime as he gave no hint of being a newbie in such activities. No excuse, but likely that the lady was a trifle more desperate for cash than the rather well fed Brit. But you seem to have missed this foreign guy who actually took the money from inside the temple. Now, that surely takes the biscuit for being despicable? Of course, that is only my opinion..... https://forum.thaivisa.com/topic/1023877-farang-on-bicycle-enters-temple-and-steals-1000-baht-donation-money/#comments Nothign to argue about; a temple thief ........... how cheap is that!

I wonder how come this footage is giving out to the public without court or police order Where are you coming from? The guy saw it fall and could have simply pointed it out to her! Instead he chose to press her to move forward, so that he could get his foot over it. What type of world do we live in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubbish, he watched her drop it, he stalked her, and when she moved he was like a rat up a drainpipe. "Floated down from the checkout" being carried by the 'good luck fairies' no doubt.????????
