I think that is the part she is assuming is part of a bribe. That's not what the article says. She says she was offered the money in order if she dropped the matter. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I don't think they are all quacks as you make out, and you trying to dumb down Thai folk is a bit off......🤐 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to think a bit if I wanted my health placed under the care of a young Dr suffering from PTSD? Perhaps the Royal Thai Army could find a place for her with a salary double that of a 7-11 employee. 555 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey boy is probably guilty of something no doubt in my mind. Thing is that Dr's here are held in god like esteem here and can do no wrong. In the past I had a heated argument with my wife when I disagreed with a statement a Dr made concerning a med issue I was having. She couldn't believe that I questioned the Dr's advice. Obviously coached? Your powers of divine intuition are impressive. There's nothing about this case that even remotely suggests that. That statement is ludicrous. You overestimate your grasp of how the world works. You should probably quit watching tiktok. 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jaideedave Posted April 11 Popular Post Share Posted April 11 3 hours ago, Eloquent pilgrim said: It’s not an out of court settlement, if it was, it would be negotiated directly between the interested parties in the presence of the police. She was approached by a third party and asked to take a bribe to drop any charges. It is an attempted bribe, describing it as anything else is a disingenuous attempt to give this bully some credibility that he does not deserve. The issue lies in the fact that in the LOS that if the BIB get involved in the negotiations they will want their cut of the booty. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well indeed, but that’s how it usually happens in Thailand. The BIB need to be involved to make sure that both parties are happy with any settlement reached; thus insuring that no charges can be brought at a later date by a plaintiff that has accepted the terms. BIB often suggest initial terms and act as mediator between the parties; they would undoubtably try and get a piece of the action for themselves if they can. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said he thought it was a Chinese woman … how’s that for racism ? And BTW, have you got anything on topic to say about this issue, or do you just troll threads to see if you can find any comments to criticise. With the thread 7 pages old, your comment to me appears to be your first one. I don't see how assuming a Thai was Chinese in the dark is racist. Regarding calling me a troll for commenting on your abusive language toward him, I think the matter speaks for itself. I'm not going to stoop to your level. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same thing with my Lao wife here in Vientiane. The doctor was a filthy slob. His lab coat looked like it could have been boiled for soup stock. His fingernails looked like he'd just come from gardening. When he suggested something ridiculous I pointed to his lab coat and fingernails and then asked him what medical school he went to. He was shocked and told me he was the doctor and if I didn't agree with his advice I could leave. All he saw was the back of my head getting smaller as I calmly walked out the door with my humiliated wife trailing behind. I told her that in Canada, doctors don't look like pigs and are at least semi-intelligent. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobU Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 8 hours ago, Hummin said: This case is now more about the corrupt system, than he as a person! He is just the face now of something bigger than him. What media says and her advisors tells her is irrelevant, and just the game that comes with it. He did a mistake, now it is about the corrupt system thats unfair, and the Thais love it, but, when the curtains goes down, its back to normal. Can anyone show me what Anutin says about corruption in Phuket? David will face charges for having weapon license for a clock and a rifle, but cant see anyone mention the one giving him the license wrongly and illegally. I can see the need for a rifle if an elephant goes rogue it could come in handy but surely it should be kept on site at all times for the supervisor to use if needed (which it wasn't) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most white people with resources and connections pay the system as a local do! A thai without resources and contacts face the same if not worse as a white guy. You just show you have little knowledge and experience with thailand. Life in thailand is equally unfair for those who is lower on the ranks. Ignorant to calm out racist unfairness. Bull<deleted>? Sounds like you are describing a justice system which is a complete joke. Wait, didn't I write that? 😅 Probably English is not your first language and you failed to understand what was communicated!

She is not asking for money, and has turned down an attempted bribe; she is asking for him to be prosecuted under section 295, rather than section 391, which the police tried to rush her into agreeing with. Might help if you acquainted yourself with the facts before making egregious accusations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paris333 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Where is Thailand scientific medical community to support Thai lady doctor from scientific community? Is it responsible stance from Thai medical scientific community? Human dignity should not be negotiated and be defined comparing to 🤪 "Golden visa" 🤪 from "golden" Swiss -Russian -Ukranian -or Australian -Britain -Canadian -American "gentlemen". I do not accept your "pardon" or forgiveness "gentleman" because Kingdom of Thailand have civil law and you do not have any right with your unacceptable stance to insult Thai civilians mainly Thai lady doctor from scientific community. Five years ban to "gentleman" to take his lesson from Thailand because human dignity is not subject of "negotiation"! I'm angry enouth with the attitude and stance of Thai justice system.
