Big Joke orders fully inquiry as affairs of Chinese/Thai crime "queenpin" Nawaporn emerge

[webfact]

Thai Rath reported on the fallout from the arrest at the weekend of a woman called Nawaporn, 53.

 

She came to Thailand from China many years ago and married a Thai man gaining citizenship.

 

They divorced but she remained a Thai. Her next move was to marry a Chinese man and have three children.

 

As she was doing this she got involved in both legitimate as well as illegal activity, said Pol Lt-Gen Surachate "Big Joke" Hakpan yesterday.

 

The Lt-Gen told officers to expand the inquiry into the activities of Nawaporn.

 

Her case came to light when it was found that a Chinese man in Silom had a Pink Card - the ID carried around by non-Thai residents - with irregularities.

 

This led to a search warrant being issued and the discovery of a surrogacy business being run by Nawaporn.

Her three children are also in the frame.

 

Thai Rath reported that Nawaporn was named in a 700 million baht business dispute case that was being handled by the Prawet police.

 

Sources suggested she has been involved in human trafficking in China, Thailand and Cambodia in the last ten years.

 

She is referred to as the CEO in the organization that also has legitimate interests.

Surachate said this was a prime example of a foreigner coming to Thailand and setting up a crime and business empire.

 

It was all interconnected with the "grey Chinese" business that the police have been working on for months in Thailand.

 

She and her family were acting as Thais helping Chinese people do business as well as break the law in Thailand.

 

Investigations continue.

A Chinese becoming a Thai and then committing crimes , who would of thought it , ban them all , stop all Chinese/ Thais from working , only joking ,we know they own Thailand 

[mran66]

" were acting as Thais" 

 

Acting as Thai? - I understood she is Thai, no need to act. 

[ThaiFelix]

I told you all, I warned you, how many times,  that there was no benefit at all to having the Pink Card.  Mark my words they will be coming after all you guys with the Yellow books next.

"Surachate said this was a prime example of a foreigner coming to Thailand and setting up a crime and business empire."

 

Yea!!!!...see what happens when an evil foreigner gains Thai citizenship. 

 

Now a Thai by birth would never setup a crime and business empire in Thailand!

An option not open to men marrying Thai women?

Virtually any and all news relating to China/Chinese is BAD NEWS. 

[Dogmatix]

They make it very easy for Thai men to get Thai citizenship for foreign wives.  No profession or job in Thailand required for the women and the Thai husbands only to show they received income of 180,000 baht from any source the year before.  Foreign men to have a job in Thailand earning 80,000 a month for 3 years or 40,000, if married to a Thai.  Now it is proven that foreign women get Thai citizenship this way for criminal purposes and divorce the Thai hubby, they might want to look at cancelling the gender discrimination and make foreign men and women apply on the same basis.

Thailand is for Thais only!  Especially for the BIB and those at the top reason illegal Thai businesses OK but anyone else they whine and cry. They invited this mess now that they are loosing grip of their country the bride money is so large it is only now they realizing their own leaders and  police Sold out their own people and country for the almighty baht. 

[Confuscious]

Like the horse of Troje, YOU, the Thai government, did open the gates widely for your Chinese masters.
YOU, the Thai government, made living in Thailand a breeze for your Chinese masters.
So, stop whinnig now about the Chinese.
All this is YOUR OWN FAULT!!!!

That's how the law works - females can access assorted official status when marrying Thais. Yet, doesn't apply to foreign guys.

Wrong. The reason Farangs (non Thai) cannot own land in Thailand was to stop the Chinese owning land. Long time ago.

I thought so, I have the Pink ID card and the Yellow Book, no idea what they are good for, if anything, because I know you can't use the Pink ID card on domestic flights (Policy), same with hotels, as for the Yellow Book, no idea, but I suppose they have to be good for something, please don't say for reduced prices at National Parks or the like which I don't go to.

"Farang" doesn't mean non-Thai. Chinese are not farang.

Thanks. I drive very little nowadays, my Thai son or his wife drive for family outings.

 

Son is well aware of 'farang / double prices' and refuses to accept this.

 

When there's discussions about a family outing son will refuse to discuss /to go where he's aware that the venue / location has double pricing.

The Pink card is mostly handy for setting up lines or sorting seeds from your stash.  Too soft for scraping paint.

her card was was acquired by illegal means..........if someone with a Yellow Tabien has acquired it by the same means then they probably already know that one day there might be a knock on the door.
