Popular Post happydreamer Posted January 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2023 This place just hasn't learned their lesson. No tourism for close to 2 and a half years and the damn country nearly goes bankrupt and finally tourists come back and the first thing they do is extort them. I usually don't take the side of influencers or media personalities because of their flair for drama but given the two sides of this coin my chips are on Ms. Taiwan 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being accused of a crime is enough. No need for proof. Many countries use interpol this way to arrest dissidents abroad. Remember Assange? Fortunately, the current president of interpol is an integer general from a squeaky-clean democracy, the UAE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is standing their ground, it will be interesting to see what happens. I keep an open mind. I am intrigued that she claims she has talked to ‘interpol’…. Yeah what the hell does interpol have to do with it. I still say this is a Chinese wannabe looking to get Instagram clicks.

I suspect this may be why the BiB have mentioned nothing of her visa status and only concentrated on the ‘illegal vape equipment’.... which they knew nothing about until they’d already singled her out for a search. Immigration police are the same as the "oridinary" police - so assume they have every right to check but normally wouldn't bother as there is no point unless someone has been flagged for visa violation.

Purdey Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 I believe that for police to set up a barricade to stop vehicles they require a signed letter from whoever is in charge of the station. Otherwise it is illegal. No mention of it being a legal stop and search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in the English language news, though, and certainly not the biggest story of the day. If she wanted 15 minutes of fame, she should have chosen a better time. At Chinese New Year, people don't care much about the news (remember the Tet-Offensive?). And she will never be able to visit Thailand again, did she really think it's worth it, for 15 minutes of fame? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedrogaz Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 7 hours ago, marcusb said: I politely disagree with that. I'll go out on a limb and say the vast majority of tourists in Thailand are on visa exempt. Visa on arrival currently 45 days, why would regular tourists bother with a formal visa. My view is that if the public and tourists are required to be totally au fait with Thai laws then we should expect no less from the RTP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
