Ms. Amarin Kokaew, the victim, told Pattaya police on January 10th that she was walking along Walking Street around 10:00 PM when a tall, young man on a motorcycle approached her. The man quickly reached out, grabbed her gold necklace, which weighed 1 baht and was valued at approximately 32,000 baht, before speeding away toward the Wat Chaimongkol intersection. Shaken by the incident, Ms. Amarin immediately went to the Pattaya Police Station to report the robbery.

BenStark Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 When reading AN I always wonder why there are gold shops, because according to the members here, you are not supposed to wear any of the jewellery sold there, other than inside your own house, maybe. And even then........... Could it be that most of those members never can afford gold at the current prices, and their comments are driven by envy?

Most of us are trying to say, it should not be a common thing to wear when bar hopping, like on Walking Street or in such places where risks of robbery are higher. But, of course, that´s only an advise and have nothing to do with any members economic situation. Edited January 12 by Gottfrid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can certainly afford to replace the gold necklace that was torn off my neck one day many years ago. But the incident taught me it is a stupid thing to do, flaunt gold, in some areas and times, like Beach Rd at say 3am! I mean, who do I seek to impress, and why? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffersLos Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I'm sure that the 25 year old in Pattaya, covered in tattoos with a $1000 gold necklace paid for it herself through honest, decent hard work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker88 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 She's actually a lovely young woman, perhaps a bit too trusting of her environment. Hopefully she gets her necklace back. If not, maybe a generous member here could be so kind as to replace it for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
