Anutin tells Swiss man Urs Fehr he should go home

You could say that Mr Fehr deserves it but the personal interference in his case by the xenophobe interior minister and lack of due process are shocking.  One can't help feeling that, if it had been a rich Thai Chinese who had kicked the lady doctor, the case wouldn't even have hit the news because she would have been successfully threatened and intimidated.

absolutely right!

 

it’s one rule for them, another for us.

and people wonder why so many foreigners are leaving Thailand in their droves!

but that hasn't happened here has it?

No - Actually I watched a video of a group of Thais beating the snot out of a elderly foreign couple with the final shot being when a Thai guy decked an old farang woman and knocked her out.  What happened?  Probably very little.  Stories where Thais commit assault and battery on foreigners are memory-holed in the media.  Memory-holed...made to disappear as Thai on foreign violence can affect tourism.  So they stories disappear.  Or are settled with a small fine and a wai. 

But when a farang does something to a Thai?  Well - open your eyes and look at the hyperbole.

Only ones that are, or have been naughty, no work permits, opening businesses run by farangy's, you name it.

 

As for us... 😇 ...farangy's, why would we leave in droves.....?

Anutin once against reaffirming that he is racist. As if us "dirty foreigners" didn't know what he thinks of us already.

 

A Thai kicks another Thai- police won't even prosecute. 500 baht and a wai max. Swiss rich guy vs an attention-whore doctor? prosecution, possible deportation, top of government gets involved. If this isn't discrimination then what is?

If you are referring to the assault in Hua Hin in 2016 where the older Scottish lady was kicked in the head and left unconscious along with her husband and son, all four were arrested and eventually jailed for two years each. Further, they were excoriated by the Thai media, in this case the Thai populace was appalled. 

 

This is the second time in two days I've seen people referring to old and near ancient videos on this forum. The one posted yesterday was around 16 years old. You're an experienced guy here, you should know better than to post without context and the insinuation that it was memory-holed is blatantly false, it was national news. 

[Mavideol]

banana republic with a "clown" as it's Interior Minister... why is he not much concerned about the other foreigners who kicked a pregnant woman, and many other bad/aggressive behavioral actions by some Russians ... we know Thailand has many types of rule of law but if one is punished so should the other also be

2. Do you know what a lady is...?

3. Do you know what a kick is....?

…what about the Thai Koh Tao killer, who murdered the british backpackers Hannah & David, got away with it, and is still hosting pool party’s every night?

 

Just because that happened 10 years ago should we all forget about it and move on?

I doubt any of us have forgotten about it, but has nothing to do with this thread........🤗

It has never been his property, but he is the tenant and was upset about what he felt was an invasion of privacy, which had occurred before with Chinese tourists. When I rent a house here I don't call surveyors to check the boundaries, would you? So, in all likelihood he had no idea that the stairs were encroaching public land. While the Doctor girl knew this perfectly well, as it becomes more and more evident that she had an agenda. 

All engagements with farangs are for the purpose of extracting money, nothing else.

I'm not saying the guy isn't guilty - he is and he should be punished. But he should be equal under the law, and the typical punishment for a kick is not jail and deportation. In this case because the case went viral and the doctor has connections you have top government intervening and basically telling the court to go harsh on him - that is discrimination.

 

He should be made to pay a fine, pay the good doctor some money for her alleged "trauma" (bs), and move on with their lives. Instead you have the attention-seeking doctor keep holding press releases, top government doing the same - for what? a kick that didn't even leave a bruise aside from her ego? it's ridiculous.

 

Give the man a fine and move the **** on already.

Earlier I wrote it was a bit strong chucking him out......😉

 

But, immigration deals with the visa thing, the court deals with the offence, kicking a lady Doctor for sitting on steps on public land......

Yes. The agenda was to walk on the beach w/ a friend then find a convenient spot to sit watch the beach and stars for a while.

 

Then she gets suddenly kicked in the back by an arrogant foreign pr*ck and treated like a dog.

 

At that point, the agenda changed, and rightly so.

He may not be jailed. He is being treated equally, as the victim chose to press charges. He isn't being deported. His visa was revoked. Nor was his visa revoked solely because of the kick. He has no legal right to stay in Thailand if Immigration deems him an undesirable, which he is.
