Popular Post Shop mak Posted February 21, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2023 Charges include "demanding bribe, malfeasance, detaining a person, invading a property and having a weapon in possession" The old woman was almost 80 years, F.G.S! I'm furious ..... what a society we live in. 'Thai Rak Thais' and all that, and - so called respect for the older people. Name them and shame them on TV and newspapers. Terminate all of them, and at least 1 year in jail. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokey and the Bandit Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 "They face charges including demanding bribe, malfeasance, detaining a person, invading a property and having a weapon in possession or colluding with more than two persons to commit an offence. They denied all charges and were released on bail." What did they say when they acknowledged the charges, it all a misunderstanding? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything we are told about Thais is a lie, which two-week tourists go away believing. Those who live here know it is very, very different, which is possibly why those in authority don't like us being here, because we talk about it. Close families is one example, where we read daily of murders within. Thais are gentle, smiling people, while over and over again we read of Thais attacking Thais like a pack of rabid dogs. Rampant corruption (Thais cheating Thais) at every possibly level, from top government officials through the police and local officials all the way down to motorcycle taxi drivers. Thais are no better than other nationalities, and in some cases a great deal worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
