This is the reason the world has so many snowflakes these days. 

 

Why be concerned?

The guy got into a fight, brushed himself off and went home. 

 

Back in the day this would happen every weekend in Oz. 

 

I'm sure there are some dear Petals here that will disagree with me. 

 

The concern should be regarding riding motorcycle while perhaps intoxicated. 

I think as a general of thumb it's best to avoid driving a motorcycle when you're drunk and after you've been stabbed.

So much tourist behavior really is going from bad to worse all over the country in recent months. Seems like Thailand is becoming the budget sh!thole of Asia.

Maybe not, but perhaps it's best to ride as fast as possible? In this particular case the wind in the drunk rider's face will serve to keep him awake and the driving rain will wash away the blood!  It's all good! 🤣🤣🤣

By lowering the standards dramatically in a desperate bid to drive up the arrival numbers the government has shot itself in its own foot, and created a lot of problems, no question about that. Thailand is attracting a lower quality of tourists these days than it used to, and there are a dozen good reasons why affluent and wealthy tourists tend to avoid Thailand. 

 

But it's still a very nice place to live for most of us who have a reasonable income stream, it's quite affordable compared to many other spots, and the quality of life is quite high.

Thailand is the preferred destination for white trash.

Maybe it is just that Social Order, in general, outside Thailand is deteriorating rapidly, recently, and now we are witnessing the deterioration, first-hand, as these members of a rotting society come for a visit.

Koh Lanta now, one of the most staid, unexciting islands, full of Nils and Svens from Sweden, Germany and such. 

 

The scourge of Farang violence, criminality and anti-social behaviour is starting to infect every corner of Thailand.

 

 

 

It is the easy visas and cheap flights to blame.

 

I can see a tightening of visa regulations in the not too distant future, to keep out the undesirables.

I agree. The problem is that Thais are "innocent" about which nationalities pose the biggest risks. They most likely never heard about Albanians, Ukrainians, Russians leading mafia groups, Indian crime. Much like Thai girls will date any nationality Thai immigration will trust anyone from any country.

Hard to tell if they're concerned that he may have escaped, or that he may be injured and in need of medical attention (or worse). 

 

I always read these stories with my fingers crossed that it happened in the wee hours when old farts like me are (wisely) snoozing away.  10:30 is kinda pushing it.

 

Or maybe he disappeared quickly because of a visa problem (overstay).

Well I think that no doubt what you're saying is true, society does seem to be declining. I think in general mankind is declining and civilization has started moving backwards towards the 2nd Cro Magnan era.

 

But there still are some quality tourists out there .Thailand just doesn't seem to be attracting very many of them, especially Phuket and the ever infamous Pattaya. Has Pattaya now become the world center for derelicts, lowlifes, ladyboys, and drunks?

Like Atlantis, Patayya is now lost forever.

It has sunk into depravity.

Of course, when we have our next Bird-Flu pandemic...then.....

 

Pattaya will, once again, rise like the Phoenix...

Once the lowlifes either die or leave.

You are the one making disparaging remarks regarding the place!

I would therefore state that my question is relevant whereas your response to a question by asking a question is a typical of a schoolboy playground response!

I ask again; When were you last in Pattaya?

How did we get there? 10 years ago wasnt like that. How can these low iq afford travelling in the inflation era?

Never!

I would never go there.

(Well, maybe I was there, one time, but then, after seeing the quality of Farang there, and their sartorial choices, I left immediately, and vowed to never return. I just do not enjoy what I  perceive to be the lifestyle there.  Still, each to his/her own, and I do not judge those who enjoy it there.)

So you have no first hand evidence to support your comments regarding Pattaya!

Just what I thought.

You are just another keyboard warrior making posts for the sake of it!

Pathetic.
