Popular Post bbko Posted August 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2021 I've said it before and I'll say it again, with so many folks losing jobs/income we can expect to see an increase in crimes. I keep reminding my Thai wife to hide her gold cause folks will start getting desperate for money/food/rent. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mvdf Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Prancing around with bahts of gold on your neck and wrist is most unwise in these dire times. Invest in a safe deposit box. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thingamabob Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Sad times. So many people in Thailand with no jobs, no money, no hope, and an elite who couldn't care less. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worgeordie Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 It's not too bad here really, but could become worse, in the UK they would have stolen the motorbike too, regards worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticFox Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 "Bad man. Go hungry. Jail for desperate hungry food criminals." You can see where this is spiraling down to? They need more prisons. Actually no. They need a human-shoehorn to pack more food criminals into cells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post robblok Posted August 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2021 They need food banks from the government to help people. The government is not doing enough in these times. They rather spend their money on tanks and other toys. I hate thieves but the kind that steals food for survival is an exception (presuming they did everything they could to work) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
