bradiston Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 I can't keep up with these raids. Who's getting rounded up, and why? Is it the same guy busted over and over again? I'm sure I read about this guy before, but Tony? Is that it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They raided 33 places, and this is the result? A guy named Tony? Is there a list of Chinese nationals they've rounded up since Khun Hakparn launched his operation? Where are they now? Can somebody please tell me what is going on here? ???????????? (I suspect now that APEC is only a distant memory, probably everything will go quiet again. Welcome back, Tony, whoever you are, but we'll have to relieve you of your 15 Ferraris, land titles, hotels etc).

RichardColeman Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Eighty tour buses ? They must be awfully dusty waiting for Xi to send him some business ! Might just all rust away before dictator Xi is finished Pol Gen Surachate found evidence of illicit businesses based mainly in Samut Prakan province. They possessed a private plane, about 80 tour buses and a hotel with a registered capital of 50 million baht and its construction cost suspiciously claimed at hundreds of millions of baht.

There's a very good article in an unmentionable media outlet which really gives a great update on all police activity. Very enlightening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lujanit Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 For a fleeting nanosecond when first reading the headline I thought they were referring to Thaksin ‘Tony’. Then I came back to reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callmeishmael Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 It would be interesting to see an article detailing the activities and connections of 'Tuhao', the Chinese businessman/drugdealer/pub owner/etc. However, given his connections I think that most journalists are keeping a safe distance from this story and are only quoting police PR statements. According to Thai gossip that my wife heard and some publicly available info here is what I have heard: 1. The crackdown is happening because the Chinese government has been putting pressure on the Thai government to arrest him and shut down a Thailand to China drug smuggling ring. 2. He is married to a Thai police colonel whose father is (or was) a very high ranking policeman and whose grandfather was a deputy prime minister. 3. Because of his connections his Thai citizenship application was fast-tracked and took only 2 years to process. 4. Also because of his connections, the Thai police are being very reluctant to pursue the case, and it is going on only because the Chinese Embassy is pushing it. Like is said, much is this is gossip and I don't know how truthful it is. The only hard facts I know are his wife's police rank and her family connections. I'm mentioning this here, because 'Tony' is one of Tuhao's minions! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
