Whilst this woman was obviously trying to gain 'followers' because she is an 'influencer' and that was her intent. Now this will get international attention and make immigration/RTP look worse than they already are? I mean OK tell her to careful what she is saying etc, but fined, possible deportation and blacklisting? Its like she killed somebody?? My thoughts exactly... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) 1. I don't see any link to the tik tok click so I don't know how to view this video. 2. Thailand and the police seem to make it a habit of shooting themselves in the foot, they're making this event much bigger than it actually is by blowing it out of proportion, overreacting and getting themselves in the news once again for their repressive tactics and overbearing actions. 3. Is criticism of Thailand illegal now? Is having an opinion about Thailand illegal? Is posting your opinion online illegal? It doesn't matter how we feel about the what this woman posted, in a free and open democracy opinions are just that. And draconian measures to suppress them are not beneficial optics. The fear of bad opinions and their effect is something to behold from men who represent themselves as adults and a nation that represents itself as a democracy.

Rinato Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 In Thailand is more dangerous to say what you think than walking in soi Nana. Privilege visa rich Chinese tourists so much wanted by Thai tourism industries need to keep their mouth shut too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interesting take-away in this article is that if vloggers post stuff the authorities don't like they'll come after them with the labour permit laws.

Indeed... its known as the 'Streisand effect' and the Thai Police and authorities are experts at it... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect The Streisand effect is an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead backfires by increasing awareness of that information. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killing someone doesn't mean deportation. " Its like she killed somebody?? Was sarcasm! From the attached article: "The legal action against Ms Wang has stirred controversy, especially as it appears to signal a departure from the typical response to negative portrayals of the country.

Then.. does Thailand want more bad press with Chinese? So, this is going nowhere. Very poorly played by cops. Should have just had a quiet talk with her. I do fully support her posting whatever she thinks and being a woman - FEELS about the place either true or not. Yes agreed, she was what Thailand wants, Rich Quality tourists. So Thailand gets one, a quality tourist, and look what happens to her? They detain her and find an excuse to potentially deport and blacklist her? Its hard to fathom exactly what planet the RTP are on? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smew Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 28-year-old Ms Zi Yu Wang, soon to be an un- successful Tik Tok influencer in Thailand. These scum-influencers make money by extorting freebies from hotels , restaurants and other businesses and as long as Utube/tiktok etc is will in to pay them they will make up stories, attracting viewers by shocking and made up fake news, more shocking the news the more viewers it will have and more $$$ for them.. Kick her out and she will make up even more fake news. Convince Utube // tik tok etc not to pay these people and we will have a better place to live... !!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shocked farang Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 This case only confirmed what I already suspected: This "Thai elite VISA" is a total waste of money. During Covid times, many "Thai elite VISA" holders were blocked from returning to Thailand. Actually, let's face it, there's an undercurrent of xenofobia in Thai society, they are a very homogenous country and society with a unique language and there's no way that it will ever be inclusive to foreigners. Don't count on Thailand for your long term residence, they can kick you out anytime without a second thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and that action, that resulted from her bad-mouthing, was to be charged with working illegally!

natway09 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Advertised as an ADULT Entertainmant Area & very strict on access age. Mainly orientated around males all but around the world it is the same. Security access, Kings Cross in Sydney for example any age can wander around. (Horrible place). Nana is not a drug dealers paradise (again, unlike Kings Cross) & I doubt if any owners of bars are selling as just not worth it . Yes, hate to tell some of you posters, but it is safe as far as personal safety is concerned albiet I have always said that in the event of a fire there is only one exit. There are 2 other fire exits out to the Landmark driveway but I think locked or built over which is a major concern as a small incendiary placed at the narrow entrance would cost many lives. I frequented on a regular basis & YOU get yourself into trouble if there is any. I do not know the exact slagging this lady has been up to but maybe the Thai authorities should turn it into advertising by accepting the facts of what it is & targeting them to frequent. It is actually a pretty special place for what it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
