I think you're just making up numbers. They give citizenship to how many people per year? I can't get a clear figure but it needs to be signed off in the Royal Gazette apparently. I think the numbers are in the hundreds per year so hundreds of thousands of Indians seems unlikely to  me. Whatever though post numbers if you have them.

 

Keep in mind that many Indians born in Thailand have Indian heritage through their Indian parents / grandparents having Thai citizenship, often going back several generations.

Hundreds of thousands Indians have Thai citizenship.  Wake up and get out of your shell.

 

In Pattaya and with a Thai partner half his age? Of course mate.

I can think of a few shops over the years with Indians working in them. Maybe they have citizenship? They seemed to be working alone so I'm not sure how they pulled that off. There's one Indian restaurant with Indians working in it. Not sure how that works either. Anyways numbers are tiny at best.

I know this isn't the gist of the article, but how does an Indian man own an apartment building in Bangkok?

 

Many are Thai citizens with Indian heredity and therefore can own buildings in Sukhumvit area or anywhere in Thailand.

 

Their parents / grandparents are Thai citizens going back several generations.

Yes I met a doctor like this once many years ago. I even asked because it was curious to me. Said his family had been in the country for a hundred years or something. I think most of them are down south by the ocean on trade routes.

Either you don’t get about much or have low observation skills.

It is not about giving citizenship now.  They have been here for generations.

 

Guess you can’t remember when most of Thai bank branches were guarded by Indians sleeping across their doorstep with shotguns.

I've never seen an Indian in Khon Kaen, Udon or Nong Khai.

I have seen them in all those places.

I have walked the entire Old City. Very few Indians. Not seem them in Isaan.

Something does not ring true in this story. No man starts pulling a woman's hair and attacking her, just because he's had a beer. 

 

Richard is right, we need to hear the Indian man's side of the story.

 

Most likely she cheated on him.

[cdemundo]

"they had been drinking beer together"

 

Huh, I wonder if that could have been a factor?

 

Lots of domestics and friend-on-friend attacks seem to have this as part of the story.

[MarkT63]

First "Indian" story I have read in a while that did not involve a gold chain and a ladyboy! 🤣

[roo860]

So the Indian didn't end up in a Korma?

 It's possible and it's not realistic for you to suggest it's not possible.

There's a couple of quite decent Indian restaurants in CM.

More than a couple of Indian temples too.  A bunch of people go to each.

I dont know whats the real truth in this story Hope police find out that I had a thai gf who was wery jealous lady She almost made me crazy accusing this and that on a daily basis.We stayed together in bang na area in a rented apartment.I warned her many times if this didn't stop she had to move.I speak thai well and after a visit in 7/11 where i joked with the girls working there hell broke loose when we arrive apartment again.She wasnt violent but her mouth running everyday.That afternoon she went to work and i packed her things and delivered it to the reception.I told the manager that i dont want my exgf to enter my apartment.She said ok.My ex tried to call me many times but i didn't want to talk with her and at the end i blocked her I meet her last year at her work and we sat down and talked a few minutes and im just happy i left her.

There's an Indian restaurant in Nimman I go to once a year or so and there's always Indians in there. Maybe some taylor shops come to mind I saw many years ago by the old market along the Ping river.  Otherwise I wouldn't know where even a single Indian owned shop is.

 

Outside of Chiang Mai in the north never once saw anything Indian. Mae Sai has some Indian looking people which seem to be in Myanmar. Indians are unicorns in the north from experience.

Wow, you are really out of touch.

Half of Sukhumvit is owned by Thai-Indians. A lot of hotels are too. There are literally hundreds of thousands of them.

I can't vouch for the accuracy, but this one says 65,000 have citizenship and 400,000 Indians "have settled" in Thailand.  Make of that what you will...

 

Thai Indians are Thai people with full or partial Indian ancestry. About 65,000 Indian Thais have full Thai citizenship, and around 400,000 persons of Indian origin settled in Thailand mainly in urban cities.

Edit:  I just figured the Thai news would refer to them as "Thai".  Apparently, not so.

That's a big assumption. Many are Thai citizens from birth. Their parents / grandparents holding Thai citizenship from birth and with long-term history. 

 

Question: Do you really believe the Thai media / Thai news services does any such check?

Never been to Sukhumvit but I'll take your word for it. Half of hotels in America in owned by Indians now too. 😂

 

They must have settled in Bangkok during some migration in the past, because I don't think Thailand is handing out citizenship to Indians to open hotels in Bangkok these days.
