Popular Post webfact Posted June 16, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2023 Officers from Chana Songkham Police Station believe that the attempted rape accusation reported by a Japanese woman was a result of a misunderstanding. They explained that the action in question was a part of the massage technique, and the officer involved had already engaged in discussions with the foreign woman to reach a mutual understanding. On Monday, June 12, a Japanese woman took to social media to accuse a masseur at Thong Ou massage shop near Khao San Road of sexually assaulting her during a session in February. The woman also complained Chana Songkham Police Station officers neglected her complaint. The superintendent of Chana Songkham Police Station, Sanong Saengmanee, looked into the incident the following day and reported that the CCTV footage had been deleted, leaving the officers without concrete evidence of the assault. Sanong yesterday told the media that the police, along with Move Forward Party MP Paramart Witthayarak, had personally spoken to the Japanese woman regarding the incident. Following the talk, they discovered that the issue was rooted in a misunderstanding. The masseur performed his duty according to the massage method, but the Japanese woman, who was not familiar with the service, had mistakenly interpreted his actions as an attempt to rape her. Sanong revealed that he and Paramart worked together with the massage shop owners to agree on measures to prevent a similar incident from happening in the future. Sanong urged all massage shops to provide detailed explanations of the service process to their customers prior to the massage. He emphasised that the massage shop should maintain an open and well-ventilated environment and install security cameras. Moreover, Sanong stated that the staff members should attain the necessary massage standards before providing their services. Sanong also warned every massage shop not to offer sex services as it spoils the reputation of Thai tourism. He said Thai massage should impress foreigners and encourage them to return and reuse the service more often. Meanwhile, the President and Chief Executive of hiva-Som International Health Resorts, Krip Rojanastien, disclosed to news agencies that the wellness tourism sector in Thailand is currently facing a labour shortage after the pandemic. Krip added that the global wellness business had a high demand for Thai massage therapists. by Petch Petpailin Photo via Facebook/ การเมือง-ชุมชน Full story: https://thethaiger.com/news/national/lost-in-translation-thai-police-reckon-japanese-attempted-rape-claim-a-misunderstanding -- © Copyright Thaiger 2023-06-16 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Popular Post sqwakvfr Posted June 16, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2023 Always ensure the first version of the story is airtight. The best spokespeople usually reply at the first news conference: “no comment until the investigation has been completed”. I believe the “misunderstanding” explanation has been overplayed. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as bad, the police are actually publicly parroting that nonsense? And before even being able to speak directly with the victim, because they couldn't seem to readily come up with a Japanese interpreter? All in all, it sounds like a thoroughly shoddy failure of law enforcement...not surprisingly.

Popular Post TallGuyJohninBKK Posted June 16, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) The scary part is, the Thai police locally there apparently believe they can get away with making these kinds of rubbish public statements/claims, and people are supposed to believe them? It's a farce. The Japanese lady here needs to go the Japanese version of Charlene An, and not let them get away with it... But I'm guessing, the victim here will just disappear as will the case at hand (so to speak....)

damian Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 What's with brining in the MFP MP? Is it to feign some sort of credibility to the story by the police? (rhetorical). Well he has not represented the new age, squeaky clean reputation they are portraying. Quite the opposite in this case. Reform the RTP.

SiSePuede419 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) First of all, what woman in her right mind would get a massage from a man in Japan? Uh, nobody. Women and men do not bathe together in Japan, much less get massages together. In fact... Hiyoshido Traditional Japanese Massage, Kyoto: Men are required to be massaged by men, women massaged by women. Now why on earth would she do that in Thailand? Where 99% of all massages are done by women or Ladyboys. C'mon. There's only one reason why a woman would get a massage from a man in Thailand. She's lonely. And needs a man's touch, so to speak. Use a little common sense. ???? Edited June 16, 2023 by SiSePuede419 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
