where can I get a T shirt that says ''I'm NOT a Foreigner, I'm a Farang'.

If you have a Thai passport, you are not a foreigner. If you are white and have a Thai passport you are still a farang.

The you have the Thai nationality but not a Thai passport. But at least a Thai ID card. If not, you are not a Thai but a foreigner. Simple.

Right, I only need a Thai passport if I leave the country. Not that simple, even with Thai nationality, I am still thought of as a foreigners and always a farang.

The narrative seems to be that only dirty foreigners commit these crimes.

 

Police apparently do not own and operate thousands of gambling dens throughout the country.

 

And, there's no prostitution in Pattaya, remember?

Im glad to see no Farang there, that would have been headline news

 

That's because their condo gambling suites are on the north side at Naklua.

So is prostitution, is that a problem in your opinion?

Strawman argument....

Is the real issue not the breaking of the Covid regulations?

Covid breaks out among gamblers

1st statement from Prawit: There is no gambling

1st statement from Prayut: Kill all the gamblers and their dogs

2nd statement from Prawit after becoming once again a laughingstock: retract 1st statement

 

Now comes the old, formulaic response for perceived political success:

 

Quickly sacrifice a gambling den with many foreigners in it and arrange photo op to showcase the rapid response to PM's edict and RTP's prowess and singularity of purpose

 

What the government hopes to achieve:

 

The public will forget about:

Prawit making a repeated fool of himself

The RTP is not corrupt re gambling

The Government is not inept

No, not for me but for those in charge. I told just a day ago make gambling and prostitution legal and collect taxes instead. But those that are probably against it own probably the casinos just across the borders ???? 

Foreigners! Let's be more specific. Asians, and stop targeting by Thais, other nationalities unfairly. Chinese started pandemic first wave, and Thais second wave. Where's Anutin!

It’s funny how term foreigner is used whenever it suits different needs.

 

It’s dirty foreigners who bring Covid but good Chinese tourists and now bad foreigners were arrested where in fact most are Chinese 

Did they enter the country using the STV?

"I am shocked!!  Shocked to find that gambling is going on here."

The Thai report translates as follows:-

 

"They caught a total of 21 gamblers, 14 of them Chinese, 5 Thai people, 1 Singapore, 1 Cambodia...".

What were they going to habe an arm wrestle or something ..

gambling goes hand in hand with other mental diseases like bi-polar

Got to get the room numbers  517 and 518 lottery numbera now .

Oh wait isn't that also a gamble?

 

And how many of the "locally sponsored" gambling parlors have been taken down lately?

It seems to be one big of a gamble coming toThailand. Well done police,but who were the rooms rented to . The owner of the building must have known what was going on. How did the police know gambling was going on there.
