Wasn't causing a problem, don't what all the fuss was about.

Probably Swedish on his way to the sauna

A video of an inebriated foreign tourist walking stark naked through the streets of Phuket has sparked outrage and debate among locals and netizens.

 

The incident, captured on 29th April 2025 and shared via the Facebook page "โหดจัง จังหวัดภูเก็ต," features the tourist casually wandering down Rattanakosin 200-Year Road in Phuket’s Mueang district, striking poses reminiscent of a fashion runway and seemingly unconcerned with his surroundings.

 

The bizarre behaviour has prompted a flurry of online discussions, with many questioning the implications of Thailand’s visa-free entry policy. Some users have voiced concerns that the policy could be attracting a larger number of tourists who do not respect local values and are more prone to causing disturbances.

 

 

 

The footage drew mixed reactions. Some commenters speculated about the legal consequences, wondering if such acts of public indecency would prompt criminal charges. Others responded with humour, suggesting comical methods to prevent such behaviour, such as using a slingshot to fend off indecent tourists.

 

Eyewitnesses recounted that the tourist had emerged nude from a nearby hotel and proceeded to make his way along the road with little regard for the attention he attracted. This incident has led to broader discussions about the quality of tourists visiting Thailand and whether the liberal visa policy is inviting unruly visitors.

 

Local authorities have yet to confirm whether any action will be taken against the tourist, but the incident has undoubtedly put a spotlight on the issues of tourist conduct and immigration policies in the country. The situation prompts a larger dialogue on how Thailand can balance attracting international visitors while maintaining public decency and order.

I hope RTP locked him up and will send him back to where he came from. And stamp his passport. Banned for lifetime.

Or/and let him run through the streets, properly tarred and feathered 😂

Why should people get outraged so often? Can't they just get used to it? They have lots of "quality" tourists there, just bear with it.

Sew the wind , reap the whirlwind.  If you make a haven for the planets dregs , they will fill it up. Those Phuket locals will have to take the rough with the smooth if they want the cash cows to keep grazing.

It's actually "sow the wind".

It appears to me that the real culprit is the tourist's home country and the low standards that they have for issuing their travel documents (aka passports).  Name them and shame them.  If they're from the US, we'll just blame it on the Republicans or the Democrats. Doesn't matter which. They'll both just ignore it.  (Reminds me of the really fat guy that flew here a few years ago and convinced the flight attendant to wipe his dirty end. May he RIP)

Any country that wants to have a robust tourism economy has to welcome tourists. Therefore, removing the visa-free policy isn't the answer. Furthermore, Thailand is still fascinating as well as relatively inexpensive and this attracts all sorts. The only way to drill the 'you are welcome as long as you follow our laws and respect local culture' message is enforcement. Swift and strict enforcement, without exception. For example, idiots like this should be arrested, fined and deported - immediately. Subsequent batches will be more well-behaved, once the message goes out that you really can't literally 'do as you please without consequences' in Thailand.

 

But, we all know what 'enforcement' is like in Thailand. It's non-existent, except in high-profile cases and those meted out by Soi-6 security chaps. So until the authorities wake up and start doing something FOR THEIR OWN COUNTRY, local folks as well as decent tourists will have to bear the brunt of this crap.

Six months stark naked in the Bangkok Hilton should sort him out...

I was referring to the post above mine that said

 

"If only women did this"     

I think its pretty much excepted now  that a woman doesn't have a "shlong"  

though ridiculously  it took a high court judgement in the UK.

 

They do in Thailand

Couple of things:

This behavior has nothing to do with the visa-free entry policy. Dinkheads have been coming to the LOS for at least the last 40 years that I have been visiting. I may be one myself, albeit quite a while ago.

 

2. This article was clearly written by AI, which is both lazy and disrespectful to readers. Lift your game.
