The Thai authorities seem more interested in "helping" the murderer. The murdered farang and the farang he tried to hack to death? Meh! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, not read that anywhere, only in the imagination of some Asean Now posters. Conjecture based on experience and likelihood and to be fair other story outlets. And we can only guess as to whether the farang parties involved were of the same opinion of thais as the Thai haters and Thai bashers on this forum who regularly voice contempt for Thai men and women? But: Bottles of Beer + 3am + Bluetooth speaker outside+ loud music +two middle aged men+ small community+ fragile mentally ill man =? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambum Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 15 hours ago, RichardColeman said: Whilst I am sure we may all on occasions say if you have no insurance its your own risk with the hospital bills, it is appalling that someone has to worry about hospital bills after an attempted murder event by a Thai national ! This guy was not drunk, doing 80 on a rented bike down a curvy hill for heavens sake. It's now like a ransom after the event ! Still, I am sure immigration or the TAT will arrive with a nice bunch of flowers for a photo opportunity ! "Still, I am sure immigration or the TAT will arrive with a nice bunch of flowers for a photo opportunity !" Or arrest him for being on overstay - nothing would surprise me here! I heard last week of someone being fined for overstay because they "self quarantined" due to having a positive Covid test but no symptoms, therefore no hospital/medical records to back up their story. (Maybe false news because I "heard it through the grapevine" but as I say - nothing would surprise me here!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Get a grip guys. Whilst this is very sad & the Thai guy obviously not well balanced, the circumstances of sitting in the street at 3am, playing loud music, drinking beer in a public place, probably talking loudly & intoxicated in a foreign country was not the smartest decision they have ever made. If Thais did this in your street in your home town, would you or your neighbours be upset ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVENKEEL Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I've been to 2 cremations in Isaan, shorts, flip flops and a shirt was not out of place among the folks. I'm talking a ceremony in the woods. Now my first foreigner funeral in a more urban setting I wasn't sure so wore slacks, dress shirt. I was the only one dressed like that. All foreigners had shorts on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now The one I went to recently all his friends came wearing shorts, cooler of beers for a few hours before the ceremony. He would have loved it.
