    No surprise with the problems with Israeli tourists. They do this in many countries, I saw it personally in Argentina already 20 years ago. Israeli think they are superior to local people, a pur racis

  • In other Pai News, 3 “Bagels N’ Lox” have opened in the small rural city.

  • Yeah... Just like the russia mafia in pattaya and now in phuket... and the yakuza in pattaya.. and the chinese gangs.. all fake news as you said....

For the record are you defending this behaviour ?

I have checked out Pai's population: Only 38000, or so.

There are 3000 Israelis.

Locals' fear of "Takeover" by them, doesn't look completely groundless...

Tourist Police Clarify Facts
Pol.Lt.Col. Suwit Boonyapen, Mae Hong Son Tourist Police Inspector, has provided key facts to address social media misconceptions:

Pai’s total population is approximately 38,000
The reported 30,000 Israelis is actually the cumulative number of tourist check-ins throughout the year
Daily average of Israeli visitors is only 83-84 people
British tourists form the largest group visiting Pai, followed by Israelis, Americans, and Germans... อ่านข่าวต้นฉบับได้ที่ :

Is Anutin really the correct person to send to assure on a dispute like this where xenophobia is concerned i.e. the same Anutin that called all tourists "dirty" and accused them of spreading Covid?

He specifically called us “farang” dirty and said we don’t take showers.

And that was the cause of the pandemic, yes.

Any specific reason why there 3,000 jews there right now?

Any particular reason why there shouldn't be?!   Have you counted how many Christians are there?  If not, why not?  Wouldn't it also be interesting, or is it just Jews you are fascinated with?

"Israelis" most of whom speak Russian...and of conscription age males... 

 

Would be good for media to report true nature of these "Israelis"

There is no way that most speak Russian.

Friend who was in Pai lately told his observation was that majority of these partying Israeli youth groups up there appeared to actually be Russian. Sure not of all Israelis, nor even Israelis in Thailand and likely not even in Pai. Just those that cause issues lately. 

 

Have not been there myself this year though, so 2nd hand info. But knowing Russian behaviour sounds reasonable. Many Israelis actually are Russians.

Many are but nowhere near most.
