I left Pattaya in 09 in large part to the influx of young lager louts. The pound was strong 00s and this lot found a playground. 

 

No idea what's become of the place.

 

If they were all to leave all the restaurants serving Sunday carvery would go bankrupt bc no one else is foolish enough to eat such a massive quantity of heavy food in the tropical heat 

Think they have air-conditioning in most restaurants.

Pattaya.

Fair chance this woman worked in the nightlife industry.

He looks like the stereotypical type who would consider a nightlife industry girl as his real girlfriend.

 

Indeed....  he probably post on local forum asking lots of question about 'nightlife industry girls'...  perhaps even post polls about which are the best type to meet...

Too much testosterone.

unlikely considering his age and physical appearance,   More likely low testosterone which he is compensating for maybe subconsciously.  I think its called an "impotent rage" but can't be bothered checking

How original , some pea brain married some whore from Pattaya , spends his time living the dream full of piss then explodes 😂😂

Deport the tool back home to reality

When?

 

 

They will never grow up.

Too much alcohol.

Too much testosterone.

Very bad mix.....

 

Such a bad boy.

 

He will learn to regret his behavior.

Bad idea to do such a thing as a guest in a foreign country.

 

Thankfully, there is a video of this which will be very helpful to him, in reminding him, in the future, what NOT to do.

 

Those who become aggressive while drinking alcohol, should refrain from imbibing.

Simple as that.

 

 

I believe you can erase the "too much testosterone" part, at his age, shape, and alcohol. NOT much left there, probably one of the reasons for the whole mess..

The Brit obviously did not appreciate to suddenly discover getting scammed by the wife and her brother maybe ? Of course it does not justify any form of violence. 

There is nothing about a scam in the OP, do you know the guy or are you making things up?

He is my brother. Honestly. I have heard that one one many times 

A Brit again, and yet some posters want to blame the Israelis by posting articles about them. It seems the Brits have cornered the market on unruly, disrespectful behavior in Thailand. 

Garbage like this needs to be sent back and not allowed back into the Kingdom what a complete waste of air

Who cares what people on AN think?

We don't even have all the facts.

The guy probably got screwed over by his Thai wife and maybe lost a ton of money.

Exactly what happened would be my guess. Probably her real boyfriend/husband. If you're paying her to be with you - she's paying another guy to be with her.

And they scammed him out of the dough to open the bar telling him he'd receive the money back via profits, yet.....

Nah its because the neither  brits and the israelis are not a protected species people can criticise them, slander them, insult them and even attack them with little need to worry about consequences, that applies to journalists and the media too.

Of course plenty on here love to have a go at both , working themselves up into a frenzy of outrage and indignation as they release their load of hate.  

And that is how a relatively minor domestic  incident like this develops into a 4 page thread of sanctimonious whinging ,  the guy had some problems, he lost it , many would in that situation, thats all that needs to be said,

And then Thailand goes bankrupt.

There's not enough industries besides bars to keep everyone employed.

You're fired!

 

 

Utter pish.

 

There is plenty of work out there.

 

Issue is many Thai people are too lazy to work 48hr a week for minimum wage.

 

Hence labour hire companies flourish with people brought in from Cambodia and Laos to fill the positions.

This is very common among family members of a Thai family. Do not NEVER trust any relatives of your beloved Thai girlfriend. Her brother is usually the one running the business scam of emptying your bank account.

True, but keep it in context. Every year XXX,XXX (several hundred thousand) Brits visit Thailand, every week we hear of one or 2 causing problems. The vast majority of Brits cause no problems at all.

Well does 104 incidents of Brits a year sound like a small small percentage? And there are many more Chinese coming here, yet we hear of fewer incidents. Also many more Malaysians.... never hear anything of them smashing up bars. Top visiting tourists are Chinese, Malaysians, Russians, Indians and South Koreans, Brits are not even in the top five until it comes to smashing up bars. 

My countrymen appear to mostly be brats!

Why else do you think he broke into the premises and then burned his wife's clothes? Let's read your take on the matter. You think he just got upset for no reason at all?

So just supposition on why, could be for many reasons I stuck to the post information.

For whatever reason I said he's now out of control acting on emotions and should be removed before he does something really stupid.

You can have your view, I'll stick with mine

Providing for a woman as a partner isn't paying for it. Prostitution of course is wrong, but some don't think of all the things that go into why a woman gets into prostitution. They're only looking at their own pleasure, and not the effect it has on the woman. You can dat until you die, as there are always men and women out there who want a partner.

"Prostitution of course is wrong,"  Prostitution is not wrong as long as there is no underage involved or anything getting done against the participants wishes. What anyone does with their own bodies is their business and no one elses.

Until you see why these women and men get involved into it, the background. Selling your body for money has never been a good thing, and the people who profit from it aren't just the prostitutes, and many are addicted, forced into it, killed, beaten and all are damaged to some degree. The only ones who think prostitution isn't wrong are those who profit from it, and even if the girls get money, it's still damaging to their lives and thinking, as well as any children made.
