As you can see from the inverted commas, I was quoting what was reported by the investigators as an update, very clearly, word for word.

You read it wrong. 

 

No, I did not, I reposted the quote directly from the thread.  My post was exactly what was reported.

I am a City boy and I did go to the country areas of Australia a few times 

I don't like it especially at night where I heard noises and in the darkness trees swaying in the wind not to mention the possibility of being attacked by kangaroos

I stayed in a Airbnb after having rented a car only to see poor animals like wombats etc laying splattered over the road 

 

I don't leave the city anymore 

Probably for the best.

Keep away from the country areas where real men live.

Those three, unpununctuated, sentences tell me everything I need to know about your alleged intellect and immersion in the world of academia.

Two fifths of five eights of eff all.

The University of Sydney must miss your lectures when you go on your overseas travels studying monkey violence on tourists, toilet etiquette, the living conditions of people in condos and ladyboys.

I bet you regale students with the stories of your academic studies, complete with statistics and graphs of the number of dentists in the Pattaya area with Smile in their name.

 

Have I missed anything?

What is the Thai work for foreigner?

The Thai word for "foreigner" is not "farang", which is colloquial  slang.

 Not same, very different. 

"Farang" usually refers to caucasian 'western' foreigners, not South Asians.

'Usually'.......what time frame is that, when and where? 

Since when has "usually" been an indication of a period of time?

I was a little shocked and upset  to hear of Pattaya socialite Barry Kenyon being killed by a alleged farang on a motorbike whilst waiting on a pedestrian island to cross a road in Jomtien 

There are magnitudes more Thais driving motorcycles who run down pedestrians.  This case which seems to have you riled at "farangs on motorcycles" but the fact is that this was a one-off case.

Are you sure that is not just part of the court order that allows you to go out? So that people know that it's you and can decide whether to give you a wide berth or not?

A very beautiful spirit of a man who was actually a Muslim but on a 2 week trip to Pattaya to study Islam further

When you get your head around magnitudes, try the more correct term 'orders of magnitude'.
