For all too many Thais the outside world is hermetically sealed off. 6 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbee2022 Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 4 hours ago, webfact said: The Tourist Police in Thailand have warned a British tourist identified as Mr. Thomas, against posting videos criticising the country on social media, citing the potential harm to the nation's image and security. The deputy inspector of Mae Hong Son Tourist Police, Pol. Lt. Col. Suwit Boonyaphen, stated that Mr. Thomas's videos were critical of Thai public and private agencies. Mr. Thomas was tracked down at his residence in Pai district where police urged him to understand the potential consequences of his actions. He was ordered to delete all his videos hosted on YouTube and other social media platforms and was taken to the police station for recording the incident. Mr. Thomas was informed that if he continues posting potentially harmful material about Thailand online, he could face prosecution under Thai law. Nevertheless, a senior officer from the national Tourist Police headquarters stated the existing evidence would be forwarded to the Immigration Police for further action, implying that Mr. Thomas has already violated Thai law.

Popular Post sqwakvfr Posted May 2 Popular Post Share Posted May 2 It might be time for this country to evlolve or grow up and say "the opinons expressed on this youtube channel are not true". Also, in terms of defammation in other parts of the world actual damage(s) muut have occurred. What is the actual damage when a nobody with phone rants about a country? What next? Ban youtube? "Sticks and bones will break my bones but words expressed on a insignificant youtube channel will not hurt me". Or just a rebuttal video. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ukrules Posted May 2 Popular Post Share Posted May 2 (edited) Here's his channel - I have no doubt he will say something dumb later today : https://www.youtube.com/@tom_greatorex There's only 3 videos in his main videos link but several more in the 'live' section.....including one saying a major tv station did a highly edited hit piece on him comprised of little snippets designed to get him booted out of the country. He has notably launched a new business in this Pai area and there's some people who don't like him but I have a feeling they might like get their hands on his business. Now that sounds like Thailand to me Edited May 2 by ukrules 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and now he promise to be a good boy and make up for his mistakes in the text related to his new and more positive videos. So, all good. Another Brit has learned to come to Thailand and respect the country and it´s way of behaving as well as dealing with things. If a person can´t do that, then they have no place in Thailand. 2 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I just looked it up and he has a very apologetic video on his frontpage.

Thailand is great at this.... No one would have heard of this guy, now they push him further into the public eye. Should authorities also punish themselves for making his videos reach a greater audience ??? The juvenile minds of those in authority seeking 'revenge' rather than whats best for the country again.... Also, if the guy's criticism are genuine and valid... listen to them, act upon them.... Yeah, it’s the sort of thing that makes it onto the BBC website and then is a worldwide story. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
