Crime Brawl on Pattaya Beach Between Foreign Tourists & Transgender Group Leaves Several Injured
Brawl on Beach: Israelis & Transwomen Clash Over Service Deposit Photo via Facebook/ ข่าวชลบุรีวันนี้ A dramatic altercation unfolded on Pattaya Beach Road today, May 19, between two Israeli men and several Thai transwomen, all now facing charges after a scuffle over a deposit for a sex service. The heated confrontation erupted after the men demanded their deposit back, igniting a brawl that was swiftly captured and shared across Thai social media. In the viral footage, one Israeli, clad in a black T-shirt, endured kicks and slaps from the transwomen, while his companion in elephant-patterned clothing attempted to intervene. However, both ultimately fled the scene, with the transwomen in pursuit. Shouts of “The black shirt! The black shirt!” filled the air as Thai bystanders tried to come to the transwomen’s aid, albeit unsuccessfully as the men disappeared from view. Channel 8 reports the fracas outside Baywalk Residence at 2.30am. Police from Mueang Pattaya Station arrived fast, managing to detain everyone involved. One of the transwomen explained to officers that a sexual service had been solicited by the Israeli man in black, who paid a 1,000 baht deposit, but the trouble began when his friend demanded its return. A refusal led the duo to try snatching her bag, triggering the skirmish. Thanadon, a 35-year-old hotel worker, recounted the chase that led the Israelis to seek refuge in a hotel. One transwoman pursued them wielding a wooden stick, with only one man successfully entering an elevator. His companion, captured just outside, was soon aided when the other returned wielding a rock to fend off the transwomen, who subsequently retreated to the beach road. Authorities have pressed charges against all participants for engaging in a physical altercation involving three or more people. Under Thai law, this offence could result in up to a year in prison, a fine of up to 20,000 baht, or both, awaiting those involved. Adapted by ASEAN Now from THe Thaiger 2025-05-20 -

Which AC better 4 reliability, endurance, service:Daikin/Panasonic. Supporting evidence?
So then, concerning the Daikin with a decent SEER rating: But, the problem is: The Panasonic offering's specs are EVERY BIT as good, if not a little bit better...even. The only problem is.....maybe......after-sales service, tech support ON-TIME, and reliability. Paying more for the Daikin would be WORTH IT if the service and reliability were far better. But, as posed in the Topic..... Might this be the case? Or, might the service and tech support and reliability and endurance be equal? Anybody know? -
