Crimes up with 211 deaths, influx of foreigners to blame

[geovalin]

Minister of Interior Sar Kheng on Wednesday said crimes increased by eight per cent last year, resulting in 211 deaths.

 

He revealed the figures during the ministry’s 2019 review and laid the blame for the increase on an influx of foreigners into the Kingdom.

 

“The crime rate last year increased by eight per cent due to the influx of foreigners who committed crimes, but the National Police made efforts to crack down on them, taking action in 89 per cent of cases which was higher than the previous year.

I wouldnt doubt it, local offenders are usually taken care of without the police.

It must be all those people that can't meet the new Thailand visa requirements.

Chinese most likely

This story relates to Cambodia. Thailand would never blame a rising crime rate on the influx of foreigners....would they?? 

[sammieuk1]

Hard to tell if there is any credibility in this story with everyone in masks????

Very telling replies 

Yes - very telling that the words of the Health Minister and the actions of Immigration make us feel so unwelcome that we misread a report that was posted for that very reason.

1st clue... Sar Kheng  - Not a Thai name

2nd clue... phnompenhpost - Not a Thai news paper

3rd clue... the actual link itself !!!!... 

 

Ok, so the Title is misleading, the main body of the opening post may be misleading, but how many people have jumped all over this article, trashing Thailand when all they’ve done is proven they can’t read before making judgement, proving themselves, well, stupid !!!

Definitely insane thinking with the presence of killing in Korat at Terminal 21! In addition the unstable Thais who have marriage problems or money problems do not have the means to resolve the issue! How many true Citizens live here? Any one agree?

Wrong country. This article is about Cambodia not Thailand. 

[Scott Tracy]

So, even there, it's the foreigners' fault.

[Sheryl]

Yet another off topic post removed. The article is from and about Cambodia. The foreigners teferred to are Asian.

Lots of Chinese crime there, but they forgot to mention who-wonder why?

Except this post refers to Cambodia?

[saengd]

Poster reaction and comments are more interesting than the article. It proves that people don't read and comprehend well and that the Pavlovian response to bash everything that might be assumed to be Thai, is very very strong. Sad really.

It makes sense to me.

It's a supply and demand problem,  More victims, more crime.
