They have taken ever cue from the outside world how to handle Covid, it is time they do the same for driving! If they take the time to address this real PANDEMIC as they have done with the Virus in a year Thailand will be out of the top 2 in deaths! Pandemic is world wide.

SiSePuede419 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 (edited) Whoever wrote this has no clue what the word "lynching" means. There was no attempted "lynching". "Vigilante justice", yes. Lynching is the opposite of justice. ???? Edited June 17, 2020 by SiSePuede419 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is the Pattaya story given the highlight spot at the top, I wonder. Because this is the Pattaya Forum, and the source a Pattaya centric one?

The set of news stories I get in my email from 'Thaivisa.com News Editor'--usually once or twice a day--covers all of Thailand and also has news items sometimes from Cambodia, USA, Europe, etc. I think this same packet of stories had one about Trump trying to block the Bolton book--nothing to do with Pattaya. I assume people in Bangkok and elsewhere on Thai Visa get the same packet of news items sent to their email that I get. I'm still thinking it's because people like to read abut bad things happening in Pattaya rather than Samut Prakam--wherever that is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was probably already in thailand at the time of the borders closure and for some reasons he has prefered to stay here rather than go back to China.

Yes, the story is filed under the 'Pattaya Forum' as it relates to Pattaya. On the news files I get in my email from the Thaivisa Editor, there are always 2 'top stories' chosen, which are given star billing in boxes at the top of the email, and then they also appear below in the list of news stories. They can relate to any forum or just be general news not specific to one forum. When you click to read a story it does take you to the appropriate forum. I clicked on a Chiang Mai immigration story today and it took me to the Chiang Mai Forum. The point I was making was Pattaya's story of someone acting badly was chosen as a 'Top Story' to be given top publicity rather than an equally or worse story of something similar happening in a different city. So, two drunk driver stories happening at the same time in different cities. Why was Pattaya's story deemed a featured 'Top Story' and not the other one is what I was asking.

What was the other city? It may well be of lesser interest to the general board audience. As a Pattaya resident, a story about some drunk driver dancing around in his underpants with a traffic cone on his head, is far more interesting to me than a similar event in Hua Hin. I might just know the guy! Edited June 18, 2020 by jacko45k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
