Uroller Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Hate to sound like my father, although as I got older I finally appreciated his 2 years in a POW camp, but kids can be too woke these days and very naive! One thing when I traveled as a young man 19-21, I was always aware of my surroundings and who I was with, drugs can cut through that alertness protection, not to say he is on drugs, but things are not always what they appear to be. I hope he is going safe and sound 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorry Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I would be very p...ed off if someone would publish a search warrant, with pictures and personal details, just because allegedly i didn't call home for 3 weeks!!! I am an adult, for heavens sake. And I have the right to some privacy. Don't publish my pics on a forum for aging tourists who could be my grandpas!

Those comments from old people saying "When I was 24..."? No, they are statements suggesting that times should not have changed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorry Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Immigration reports that he left Thailand for Laos long ago. And that he is "a frequent visitor to Thailand", so maybe not what we would call a "tourist" (but Thai media call every foreigner a tourist). "Frequent visitor" often means living here by exploiting visa loopholes. Probably teaching Finnish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to suggest that times "should not have changed", someone is clearly stating that times have changed. Whether they celebrate that concept or wish it wasn't the case, acknowledgement remains a key part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocked farang Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 On 9/14/2022 at 5:35 PM, riverhigh said: Another question I would be asking is he on meds. Has he a history of mental illness or mental disorders? It is not uncommon in Europe for individuals who are not suitable for travel to be granted a passport based on their human rights. If this is the case then his embassy is morally obligated to get involved and disclose all information. Governsments issuing passports to the mentally ill must be held responsible for their actions. Please, don't be silly. If he was sane enough to go through all the procedures to obtain a passport then he is entitled to have one, as simple as that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparktrader Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 On 9/14/2022 at 1:20 PM, Skallywag said: He is 24, not a kid. Need some clarification. Does he normally IG his mom? That seems odd, why not text or just call. Did he buy a Thai sim card or use someone else's phone to IG his mom.? Maybe he wants to go off grid for a month? Has the mother contacted his friends where she is? Can his bank check his ATM withdrawals? I remember my first trips to Thailand in the 90's. No calls, no mobile phones, no internet really available. Sent a few post cards, most did not arrive until I got back a month later. If he is "missing" hope someone has seen him and reports back! My mum was a drama queen. No calls 3 weeks think you were dead. She was like this her whole life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't even think about somebody could be missing me. Back home after 2 months my parents welcomed me with: Ah, you are still alive. Looks like you had a good time as you didn't call us a single time. OK, this was 25 years ago ... Ah yes , parents. I returned from Oz. after leaving home age 23 , traveled to many countries ,came home after nearly 2 years , walked in the door with mum and dad watching tv. I had a sitar I bought in Delhi , wearing an Afghan coat I got in Herat , long hair to my shoulders.....Mum said without taking her eyes of the telly ' I will get you some dinner after this ..' My father said mind how you shut the door the smoke will blow out of the fire I just lit . I put my sitar down and phoned a mate and we went to the pub. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
