Popular Post Don Chance Posted October 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2020 Yes because she is a cute, young girl she must be innocent. Please, so naif. If it was a middle aged, hairy dude, there would be no sympathy. Since she is a girl, people jump with their wallets open. South Africans are known to be rather hard up for cash and desperate not to return home. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kerryd Posted November 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 2, 2020 Just did a quick check. Not a single update about this anywhere I look. Not on her FaceBook page (not a single post or update since her arrest - maybe she doesn't allow friends/family to post on her timeline). Not on the "Hot In the Bisquit" FaceBook page (last post on there dated 1 Nov). Their last post about Ashley was 1 week ago where they mentioned that her bail had so far been denied. Not on the GoFundMe - which was suspended (after reaching their initial goal of $3,000 then upping it to $30,000). No update there either. Also - the actual (allegedly) "owner" of the restaurant (the guy who claims he's "seen all the evidence" while still in the Ukraine attending medical school) has apparently deleted the rant he posted on the Hot In the Bisquit page about how Ashley was innocent (and had been working - without a work permit - and how Stickboy was going to "hear from his lawyer"). On their FB page, from the time of her arrest (8 Oct) to now, there are 7 posts and only one refers to Ashley (the one last week were they were "expecting news" and then that her bail was denied). Maybe his "lawyer" told him that publicly stating that Ashley had been working at (his) restaurant all that time without a work permit was a bad idea. (I wonder what Immigration thinks about foreigners who have other foreigners working illegally in their business ?) 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicalevo Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 It seems that she did manage to obtain her TEFL qualification - back in 2018 "Obtaining my TEFL certificate was the best decision ever! This journey is about so much more than teaching. It’s about self discovery, traveling and meeting new faces that turn into life-long friends. It’s about helping to shape the future of each student we teach.” ➡️ Amazing outlook from former TEFLworld student (April ‘18), Ashley Oosthuizen," It is, however, strange how quiet the whole episode has gone.

Kerryd Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 As the packages supposedly were sent from the UK, and had to be signed for (indicating Registered Mail) then you'd think "Sshhccotlind Yard" would be investigating it was well as it would appear that's were the drugs originated from. Though I would not be surprised at all to learn that they were shipped by a "mail forwarding" company and actually came from a different place. Hmmmm, I wonder if they have MDMA in the Ukraine and how hard it would be for a medical student to acquire some ? Of course, that would require someone to actually contact Sshhcootlind Yard and provide them with some details (i.e. who allegedly shipped the package, the return address on the package, etc, etc.) You'd think the coppers would be all over that if they learned that large quantities of MDMA were being shipped through the Royal Mail service, regardless of where they were being sent to.

Popular Post GoodieAfterDark Posted November 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 17, 2020 (edited) On 10/22/2020 at 9:21 PM, khunPer said: Opening a restaurant, that's also a weak point in the case. A foreigner cannot legally start a small restaurant in Thailand. A foreigner needs a Work Permit, cannot do certain work that is reserved for Thais, and a company limited set-up with a capital of two million baht and 51% of shares owned by Thais, and also four Thai employees is also needed; except if married to a Thai, then it could be a partnership with two employees and one million bat in capital. The article states that she's from South Africa, so the US-Thai amity agreement for business is not in force here. However, the article also says... –Why is her "former boss" using her business address – "former boss" is probably not a head master from one of the island's International Schools – is the "former boss" related to "Hot in the Biscuit"? I would think there is more details to the story, than the article and Go Fund Me-page reveals...???? "Hot in the Biscuit" is that a code word for something else? I knew a kid that used to work at local KFC a few years back. I used to go there thru the drive in to buy food. This kid was front page in the local newspaper when someone asked for "extra biscuits" at drive in. "Extra biscuits" was the code word for marijuana that he was selling. When the customer received the extra biscuits, she called the police and the kid ended up in prison.

This was a comment from Tony 125 on Oct 23. I was simply rephrasing it. I don't know about South Africa but in US you can atake college courses in High School and graduate early with enough points to finish a degree early, also there is a TEFL course in Phuket which will give you a bachelor's degree for teaching English in 2 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, apologies. Well this chap clearly didn't go to university as he's talking nonsense. TEFLcampus is the one operating in phuket, it's a 120 or 150 hour certificate offered.https://teflcampus.com/. They are simply cash cows - give some cash and get a certificate a few weeks later. They're worthless and do not count towards a degree of any kind. You can take college courses in some high schools from affiliated colleges, but they're generally technical colleges, not a traditional University style college. Some University style colleges will offer starter programs to prepare you for the experience, and super smart students can go to college if they graduate high school early. I've even heard of an 11 year old who graduated from a university! Edited December 2, 2020 by 2530Ubon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
