Popular Post yellowboat Posted July 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2020 The word "disgusting" doesn't even begin to describe the actions of the junta. Thai is beyond tarnished. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rkidlad Posted July 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2020 1 hour ago, Don Mega said: Agree'd, No doubt there will be many butthurt over it but they won't think twice to take advantage of it should the need arise. Yea, many the world over would buy their way out if they could and had the money. That doesn’t make it right or mean we should just accept it. It means the justice system is completely broken. And that just increases the likelihood of rich punks thinking they can drive drunk and dangerously, etc. It’s all fine for people who have the ‘mai pen rai’ attitude until someone they care about gets hurt. Then they’re “butthurt” and screaming for justice. It’s all fine until it’s not. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TTSIssues Posted July 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2020 This was indeed the only logical outcome, however abhorrent it seems to us. “Justice” for the family I assume will have come from a substantial payout which is terms of them will be more important than having the scumbag put away in jail. Although nailing him may have made them feel better, the cash will help them for the rest of their lives (assuming they don’t just blow it all) - so in reality is a better option for them. this does show Thailand in a terrible light for the rest of the world - the only option we have is to stop buying the sugary products that his family produces, sadly I don’t do that anyway. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorG Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 The really sad thing is that HI-SOs will openly brag about the law not applying to them. Everyone knows and accepts that this is just "the way things are in TH". 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post anchadian Posted July 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2020 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-53521586 Charges have been dropped against Red Bull heir Vorayuth Yoovidhaya over the 2012 hit-and-run killing of a police officer. Mr Yoovidhaya was accused of hitting the officer with his car in the capital, Bangkok, then fleeing. He repeatedly failed to meet police to face the charges, which include reckless driving causing death. Thai Police say these charges have now been dropped, but it is unclear why. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyluke Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 "the only option we have is to stop buying the sugary products that his family produces" It won't hurt them very much, I think. On the other hand, if they stop sponsering sport events, I am afraid it would be dramatic for many. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. It would not be a surprise if he has been hiding in plain sight, same as Kamnan Po and a host of other high profile criminals with money and connections. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soalbundy Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Quite a surprise considering the great lengths that the police went to in order to arrest him, they left no stone unturned. Must have been a huge envelope. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
