A shocking scene unfolded on the streets of Phuket as a foreign tourist was caught on camera urinating on a moving tuk-tuk. The incident, which went viral after being shared by user "Wissawa Jed Dok Jick" on Facebook, has sparked widespread condemnation.

 

The footage shows the audacious act unfolding on April 24th, with other vehicles and pedestrians left aghast at the sight.

 

The uploader, echoing public sentiment, slammed the act as "unacceptable behaviour" and expressed disdain for such disrespectful actions in public spaces.

 

The scene was captured amidst the hustle and bustle of Patong, with the tourist seemingly oblivious to the consequences of his behaviour. This brazen display has once again highlighted concerns about certain tourists' attitudes while visiting Thailand.

 

The video has triggered a surge of reactions online, with many netizens expressing their disgust and demanding stricter monitoring to prevent such public offences.

 

 

 

Calls for better regulations have emerged, as users emphasize the need for visitors to adhere to local decorum. This incident feeds into a broader conversation about the impact of tourist behaviour on community standards and public hygiene.

 

Discussions have been reignited concerning the necessity of educating travelers on respecting cultural norms and the significance of maintaining public decency.

 

While this latest occurrence adds to an ongoing dialogue, it underscores the crucial role of local authorities in enforcing standards and deterring disrespectful behaviour. As the debate continues, the push for effective measures to safeguard public environments remains a pressing priority.

 

As of now, no official statements have been reported from local police or authorities regarding the tourist's actions. The incident stands as a stark reminder to all visitors of the importance of respecting local customs and laws.

Tell me, what would be a public accepted alternative? Holding up is not a choice I know by experience.

to adhere to local decorum

 

I fully agree, should get out of the Tuk Tuk and pee against a tree like the Thais do   😎

Disgust and Outrage as Tourist Urinates on Moving Tuk-Tuk in Patong

 

Wouldn't it be more accurate to say he urinated off a moving Tuk-Tuk?  Or from a moving Tuk-Tuk?

 

I thought maybe the guy was spraying on passing Tuk-Tuks in a perverse holdover from Songkran.

Only Patong. Phuket is a big  Island and the folks up in Surin Beach or Bang Tao or down in Kata  don't behave like this

If my car camera had unlimited memory, I could probably post a few hundred pictures of Thais, men and women, taking a leak on the side of the road.  "local customs and laws."  Yeah - give it a break.

I see homeless Thai people weeing into the moat almost every night I go out.

Once a homeless Thai woman waded out until waist deep to have a poop.

What about all the Chinese kids we've seen having a poop in the street?

i have seen a homeless metally disturbed woman take a <deleted> on the sidewalk in the middle of lower sukhumvit, but that's not the point. The guy in the tuk tuk was not mentally disturbed, homeless, or disadvantaged in any way. 

Admittedly, this whole find the outlier and publish it on social media to shame the farang for karma and likes thing is out of hand, but the behavior itself is fairly unforgivable.

for every story slamming a foreigner reporting a trivial crime, I can find a story reporting a local for a serious crime

Again not sure what point you are making. Thailand has a population of around 71 million. I would expect representation in the news to reflect that. And we are talking about social media here, not the news.

Also given the wealth of real news, one would hope the trivial stories got less rather than more attention.

Where do these animals come from? Throw out and blacklist for life! Normal and mentally healthy people do not do such things

Depends where you come from, I doubt it's unusual in India or China, and Thailand loves tourists from those countries.

Gen Z have prostate issues apparently. Worry for the natality rate.

If the Tuk-Tuk was moving, I wonder how someone got such a close-up photo.  Was it all planned?

That looked a good flow …nothing wrong with his prostrate …

Weeing - poop! Why the baby talk? This is an adult forum. The correct terms in English are Urinating and Defacating.

Please. No more baby talk!
