23 year old kids don’t care about falang tourism….save face, be tough, same in every country.

 

Guess what?  In the 1800s kids were getting stabbed……now it’s on the internet.  Not shocked.  In Ukraine, it’s much worse.   

 

be safe falang……..wear fake gold and wai the soi dogs…..

With such low quality staff like this, no wonder I had several things stolen from my luggage a few years back.  

'Rival groups'?  Wow.  Like a gangland in an airport!

That was my initial thought, but in well over a 100 flights nothing has ever disappeared from my baggage (I’m not sure my baggage has ever even been opened By anyone airside).

Did your baggage contain anything worth stealing?

They don't open baggage at random, these days it's all high tech X-ray first.

Bags are X-rayed first... yours obviously didn't attract attention.

Wonder if he was possibly one of the honest ones and didn’t like what he seen other staff doing to luggage and was threatening to tell .

It may also be drug related.  There have been many cases over the years where baggage handler gangs have been involved in drug smuggling by placing stashes in innocent peoples bags before going into the planes hold and then being removed at the other end by another gang of handlers before the bags get to the customs halls  (the Shapelle Corby case in Bali is one that comes to mind).  Maybe the victim had been threatened to keep his mouth shut or wanted a bigger commission share.

That has always preyed on my mind.......random stop, bag full of drugs......off you go.....see you again in 10 years.

More the better as long as they win and do not lose face. Numbers do not matter, a win is a win.

A mob on one guy is about as much face as it is possible to lose

And I am sure my baggage has been opened on my return to BKK due to several stolen items on roughly 20 flights.

Where did it say 10 against 1?  It could have been 5 against 5, with just one guy stabbed.  The other 9 melted away- both sides...

That headliner is way too deceptive.  Baggage handler at airport.  Totally irrelevant to the actual event.  Nothing to do with his occupation or location.

Err me thinks otherwise. RIVAL EMPLOYEES  at Suvarnabhumi how is that Deceptive
