So he's not poor.

Financially maybe not, but finishing school was wasted money.

There's no checks such as that nowadays.

I hope they are going to some serious jail time before then being thrown out.

Elite does next to nothing when doing criminal background checks. They don't require applicants produce anything from their home country. At least not anymore (not since 2021 anyways). All they do is a simple INTERPOL search. And the search is only as good as the search perimeters the IO uses when reviewing the application. And if this character used his Vanuatu  passport to apply for his elite, he'd have nothing to worry about if he had no criminal record in Vanuatu.

Wow, I’m flabbergasted ! Who on earth are these people ? Who on earth attacks the police , what were they hiding ? So many questions. I can’t believe they’re just spoilt rich kids which India has a lot of. Quite frightening really .

Interesting, especially when a Thai man who did 5+ years in jail in Australia for drug offences is now a minister in the Thai government. 

 

Poses the question is there any record check before ministers are appointed?

Expensive but easy. One of those countries that gives a passport for a wad of cash. 

Lots of Indians are borns and raised  throughout Oceania. 35% of the polulation of Fiji is on Indian heritage.

India and Thailand have a shared culture going back to centuries with the implementation of budhism and hinduism that came to Thailand from India.

 

At the end of the day, it's the rotten apples that need to be banned no matter where they are from.

 

However it cannot erase the strong cultural and spiritual heritage that the 2 nations mutually share and respect.

 

The Thai's are smarter then us westerners and quite obviously know how to seperate the good from the bad, no matter which nationality or skin colour is involved.

 

A shere sign of wisdom that can teach many a few, many a lesson of life.

Excellente décision. Dehors !🫡

Reporting these <deleted>wits as Foreigners is a form of media driven racism.

 

It leaves any Thai reading the article to believe that all Farang are bad.

So why not identify their origin rather than just call them foreigners?

 

They were INDIAN except for 1 RUSSIAN

 

If the facts are reported correctly right from get go it avoids false conclusions

Jeez dem Indian Mafiosos is serious man.

 

Would be 'Mafia' types in the UK have Pit Bulls and Dobermans but Lions is a whole different matter. Looks like they don't have dogs just patroling the grounds and biting intruders - they have Lions eating them!! Although the one in the photo looks a couple of years away from eating much more than a rabbit.

Thai know the difference between foreigner and farang.

THAT happens very often; too often I would say... internationally!
