webfact Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 "Good news soon": Murder of German who taught English has damaged the image of Thailand, says media Picture: 77kaoded The chief of the Prachinburi provincial police said that he expected good news soon after he chaired a meeting of investigators looking into the murder of a German man who taught English. "Mr Wilhelm" (name transliterated from Thai) was found stabbed in the chest at his address in Soi Bang Pakong 2 in Muang district on Wednesday. The victim was a popular man with his neighbors and his death was bad for the image of Thailand said 77kaoded, thus prompting a full police investigation. Pol Maj-Gen Naradech Klomthuksing was talking after an hour and a half meeting at police HQ on Thursday. He ordered a number of separate task forces to be set up to investigate every angle of the crime. At this stage equal weight is being given to the possibility that a family dispute, a woman or robbery was the reason for the slaying. He smiled after the meeting and said that good news would likely follow shortly.

Sad that the man was killed, but to say his death was bad for the image of Thailand, is beyond funny. The actions of police and immigration here does a lot more damage to the countries image. 42 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if a particular murder doesn't harm Thailand's image, then there wouldn't need to be a full police investigation??? Do they have a "quickie" or "mini" murder investigation when "image" isn't involved? Edited May 8, 2020 by TallGuyJohninBKK 10 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ratcatcher Posted May 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 8, 2020 As many above have rightly stated, that it seems there are many things that "Damage Thailand's reputation". Frankly, I think more time should be spent by these wizards on figuring out a way to repair the massive damage they have inflicted, in one way or another, on their own country. Time for them to remove head from anus. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wotsdermatter Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Currently, I am in Canada. About three weeks ago, my receptionist's father, who is in his 60's was going to the market when he was attacked by a man, stabbed and his lung was penetrated. He was taken to hospital where he underwent surgery. There is a 27% chance of dying from such a wound. He was fortunate and survived and spent a couple of weeks in ICU in hospital. He is now home and resting. The police "viewed" the CCTV and said the camera was too far away to show the culprit. In other words, without receiving any incentive payment they would do nothing and they didn't. 'nuf sed. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy John Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 The scary part, in my opinion, is the fact that a German was employed to teach English! No offence to the deceased is intended as I truely believe the is no-one better to teach English than a native English speaker...which excludes anyone from the USA, Scotland, Ireland, Africa and NZ. Which only leaves the English and Australians. ???? 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
