You don't have to enter the noodle shop.  Just trigger the cutscene and save the game.  When you reload it the mission will start at the car chase.

 

Have you been on the mulled wine early?

The man probably consumed a LOT of alcohol to go on a rampage like this.. in any case, this is a terrible way to lose a life

like this...

 

 

It's irrelevant how much alcohol he consumed. Too easy a copout and an excuse, I was drunk and can't remember, I took drugs and can't remember, I was depressed etc.

 

Normal human beings just do not behave in this way.

 

The biggest shame of it all is, even if he gets twenty years, life in a Thai prison is no hardship for these people.

 

The way they live outside is exactly the same as the way they live in jail, except no water or electric bills or fuel for the motorbike to worry about.

 

They sleep on the floor, get meals provided, told when to shower, when to sleep and get up, watch TV early evening with stupid Thai soap operas, and don't have to do anything to help themselves.

 

The best part for them is they don't have the slightest bit of responsibility, which suits them.

 

SCUM, people like this noodle seller.

It amaze me every time, that it seems like Thai people can suddenly just go kill, and there is always an excuse. He didn´t tolerate high volume or he had been drinking. I don´t get the urge to kill when I am drunk. It doesn´t matter how drunk I am, which I assume goes for most persons. Here it seems like a normal thing for Thais, and we never read anything about that they might be, or is, mentally disturbed or have mental issues. However, as soon as a foreigner walks around a little bit angry and screaming in a street, then there are big reports about how disturbed that person is. For Thais that kill, they are just described to be in a fit of rage or as it would be an effect of drinking or taking other substances.

As an example we have the text above. It should be: A crazy noodle shop owner with psychopathic behavior took a knife and deliberately killed a Thai woman and a Canadian man.

Definanetly looks like an underlying mental issue, mental health is in denial amongst Thais, go stay at the temple for a few months and your better

Of course execution is not too severe. 2 people dead here. The murderer should be dead already!

You missed the point of my post.

It was concerned with lack of deterrent effect of execution.

Can't fathom what was the point of your post.

What an ill thought out, stupid knee-jerk response.

 

We are talking about a specific crime here that occurred in the province next to the one I live in. No more, no less.

 

What's the crime committed by a Westerner? , No!!

 

Was it an unprovoked double murder committed by a disgruntled Thai noodle seller, to which my comment was applied, yes!

 

So, what are you talking about?

More great news for the Chinese tourists - NOT.  Are the Thailand authorities 'listening' - this is just one of the many many things that Thailand needs to address STRONGLY. Trial and execution within 2-3 months - that is about the only thing that will stop others doing the same thing when they get angry.  Drunks killing people, military/police nutters killing people/babies, boats killing people, women being raped and killed, people being killed in Malls, etc etc etc. All the positive PR and Rhetoric in the world is not going to work (anymore). Yes it happens elsewhere too - but not every day - day after day after day. Media story today about 7 Police arrested for corruption and another charged with rape. On and on and on it goes. And it is more and more impossible to 'cover it up' and just keep smiling.  The problems Thailand has are all post-covid - all the other local countries (except Myanmar) are going better - economically and socially. Yes economic growth and properity will solve a lot of the problems - but it is not coming quick enough - a lot of Thais are seriously struggling. 

I accept everything the poster is saying, but the other side is I feel safe walking around Bangkok and Pattaya, never had a problem in 17 years, though it has to be said that I was never out after 11pm or frequenting bars, I could never feel safe in any UK city after dark the way I do in Thailand.

The assailant, disgruntled after quitting his job, couldn't tolerate the noisy gatherings of his Thai wife's friends and the Canadian neighbor.

So was his Thai wife in a relationship with the Canadian guy??? Was she even there at the gathering??? Is the dead woman his wife?....all very odd.

I love living in Thailand, anything I post is the truth and nothing but the truth 

There is nothing more stupid than someone saying to some else "if you don't like it go home" What about the UK guy who was told "if you don't like it go and live in some other country". A person has got to live somewhere. The good far outweighs the bad here in Thailand compared to the UK, and that is despite living in a country ruled by unelected soldiers, or having a government that was not elected by the Thai people.

I will never understand why some foreigners choose to live in Thai villages with zero security. Almost every time you hear about a neighbor going stabby or a foreigner getting robbed it's at some village out in nowhereville. I'm sure it did happen.. sometime.. but I can't recall hearing about someone getting randomly stabbed by their neighbor in a condo. Better security, actual security guards (when they're not asleep), and less easy access (if you don't open the door nothing will happen).

 

For those of you who live in villages/houses - do you actually feel safe??

Yes. I do.

[LikeItHot]

Another (at least the second in as many months) of a murder/s caused by a noise complaint that the police should've mitigated before it escalated out of control.  Money is tight, times are hard, tempers are easily flared when a man can't rest peacefully in his own home.

I have my doubts that fear of punishment will have much deterrent effect with homicidal drunks.

I may be wrong but I don't think such people do a risk/reward or cost/benefit analysis before committing a murder.

Does a guy like this noodle shop owner say to himself "I have a very strong urge to stab these two. But let me think, what will be the consequences for me if I give in to that urge?".  I don't think execution is too severe a punishment, but I don't think it will act as a deterrent for other killers.

I hear you, but it does not always work that way. A person 'knows' something and it is ingrained, and that internal feeling can stop them doing certain things, sometimes.  The reason so few people in Aust drive when they have had too much to drink, is not because they are a good person as such - it is because they 'know' that the punishment is extremely severe. The thing is that it is over time that the extreme punishments being handed out become the 'lesson' and it is learned and it becomes ingrained.  Yes - some will still do it - but over time, less and less do it.  The reason so many Thais do not wear a helmet is because they know there will be no 'punishment'.

a little money to smooth things over and all will be well again. Relax ok. This is still the same Thailand it was years ago. Just more of it is in the news now.. Eventually Thailand will put an end to Facebook and livestream media without censorship and then all will be well again even more so. 

I do agree with one OP that a Thai person doing something bad is downplayed whereas the foreigner doing the same is exaggerated. 

I thought Thailand would become less like China once the Junta was bid a not so fond farewell.

Yes. When there is overwhelming evidence of guilt such as in this case. IMO there are no 'mitigating circumstances' for killing people in that manner.

Has it not crossed your mnd that there are other reasons why the Chinese do not come to Thailand?

Ie

The food served to them is Chinese, sometimes lower quality than home.

They stay at Chinese Hotels

The transport is Chinese operated

Everything they do is Chinese managed

They are herded around by Chinese touts

They think Thailand is dangerous!

 

They might as well stay in China!

So now Thailand thinks the rich Russians, Taiwanese and Indians are here!

Those Chinese big group tours are becomming less - more of the Chinese tourists are small groups and families and couples. 

Chinese tourists seek less trodden path as overseas travellers decline, become choosier post-Covid | South China Morning Post (scmp.com)

Perhaps in the future the 'poorer' Ciniese tourists will start travelling in those 'bargain basement' large groups - but lets hope not.

I agree - she provoked this deliberately - even though it is true - a young single female should not go there late at night/early morning. But the never ending 'bad news' stories about Thailand just keep coming - and trying to shut this down like China or Nth Korea is not the answer. 

 

Yes - Thailand is extremely safe in that regards, when compared to many other countries. There are places normal people will not go in their own western countries, especially at night. The same thing applies in certain parts of Bangkok and Pattaya and Patong etc.  Certainly not safer on the Thai roads though

Probably you are number one to do the execution? With a machete or axe? Thirsty for blood shed? 

I call it pathetic and inhuman.

But sure some behave like animals.

Haha. 

 

Are you a Christian? Re read your holy book and see all the bloodshed in your religeon. 

 

You do realise that your God is happy to send people to hell to be tortured for all eternity just for being a different religion or a non believer right? 

 

Also your religion was the reason for torture   genocide, human trafficking and hate crimes, in the name of your god...and in many ways still is.
