Popular Post snoop1130 Posted Wednesday at 09:41 AM Popular Post Share Posted Wednesday at 09:41 AM A Thai hotel owner took to social media to expose the behaviour of a foreign man who stole a key to her hotel in Chon Buri and stayed there overnight without permission or payment. A video of the Thai woman arguing with the foreigner was shared with news Facebook page Social Hunter 2022. The page shared the video yesterday, June 25, with a few words to accompany it. “This foreign man is known as Sam. He used to be a guest of this hotel but this time he stole a room key and stayed without paying. Hotel staff called the police to arrest him on June 24 but no officers arrived. Immigration Bureau officers apprehended Sam the next day and plan to deport him.” Channel 7 reported that the hotel owner and staff tried to make the foreigner leave but he locked the room door and did not respond to their calls until the next morning. The hotel owner had to ask permission from a guest staying in the adjacent room to enter and speak with the man on the balcony. In the video, the foreign man is seen on the hotel room balcony defending himself but his words are inaudible. The hotel owner shouted at him in Thai. “I chased you away last night but you didn’t leave. Get out! I’m not okay. I couldn’t sleep all night because of you. What the f*ck is wrong with you! Get out now! I called the police but no one came to arrest you!” Neither the news Facebook page nor Channel 7 clarified how the foreign man stole the key or his motive for the theft.

Read the OP, it's all there! Of course.... because, the Op perfectly translated the what the woman was screaming ad verbatim... colourful language, insults, soil and dirt... Sometimes your 'reliance' on telling people to 'read the Op' is boresome... In these fora the Op often raises more unknowns than it deals with.... In this case the Op is most certainly not a translation of what the woman was screaming. 1 2 4 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no mention of him overstaying or breaking immigration laws . 3 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case the Op is most certainly not a translation of what the woman was screaming. I'd say it was pretty accurate. There was one phrase in the middle that I didn't quite catch and there was some repetition but most of it was pretty much spot on. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you are told to leave by management or owner you must, or it is trespassing. Does it matter anymore now? Whatever the circumstances theThai woman posted it in social media and got immigration involved. Even if he was in the room legitimately and the woman was screaming insults because he did not leave when asked, he is now considered a problem tourist and will be sent home. The man acts nonchalantly enough as the woman is yelling insults to him. Perhaps he believes he is justifiable to be there. How does a foreigner steal a room key and manage to stay there without police intervention? Something in the story does not seem right. 1 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not see where the hotel owner was requesting he be deported, rather it was a decision of immigration police. If he is destitute then perhaps best to send him home... he is guilty of criminal trespass surely. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must have done something very wrong to have caused the Thai woman to become enraged like that. I never read of somebody kicked out of a hotel or guesthouse except for some outrageous behavior. A Canadian once leased a room into our Condo building years ago I talked to him in the elevator once. Seems after he moved in he paid nothing to his Thai landlady, for months. Although he went out at night and had money enough *apparently for drinking and bringing women to his room. I seen him drinking at old Rama guest house from the street myself. After a few months, there he was in the parking lot. LOOKING COMPLETELY NONCHALANT as his good were loaded in a songthaew with a few cops standing buy. Never to be seen again.

Popular Post bob smith Posted Thursday at 12:13 AM Popular Post Share Posted Thursday at 12:13 AM After watching the video the Hotel owner definitely overreacted. Most Thai people have real trouble regulating their emotions, especially when they are faced with a problem to solve. There are proper ways to deal with this kind of situation. The hotel owner got it completely wrong. bob. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
