deerpig Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I'm out of the country on a business trip and have gotten multiple calls about a farang British National (who claims to be a mason) who has moved into my village and made a right mess of things. It seems he has kicked his Thai wife out of a house which is in her name and she had to moved to Bangkok. He has remained and taken up with a ladyboy in the house. Things seem to get weird from here. He is verbally abusive to everyone, including the police. I've also been told he has "touched" people (children and women) in offensive ways. The police don't want to deal with it unless they are forced to, but a lot of people want to get this guy out. People like this give all foreigners a bad name in Thailand and only reinforce the stereotypes and xenophobia that we are already dealing with. Any suggestions?

Maigo6 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 If what you say is true, then he should have been arrested already. Touching women and children and he is still active ? I think people are exaggerating to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutnyod Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 It seems like people are insecure. They might, for instance, wait for somebody to talk reason to him. Often, the first instance is a person's family - get his relatives to set him straight. I would not get personally involved, but would tell people about the culture in GB: that every person is responsible for his/her deeds, that it is okay there to initiate legal action without the detour over the family, that in Europe physical force is not okay (wife-beating) etc. Maybe he also needs some medical help, who knows.

solent01 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 If this is true, I would not get involved, the local Thai community will sort it out one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
submaniac Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Any suggestions? 1) Give him a Canadian passport. 2) give him a bus ticket to Pai. Problem will be solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you/he the only farang in the area--I think you need to check the truth in whats being said to you--maybe some exaggeration here, hopefully--if true, I fear we may read about yet another dead farang--sounds like a mental case.

Boo Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 if the house is in his wifes name then it is a simple case of getting a lawyer & serving him notice, if on the other hand he has a lease &/or ufstruct then there is nothing she can really do about that. As for the other accusations about touching, then they are very serious accusations & I would urge they get ample proof before making roads into sorting that out. The guy has broken no law for just being a tosser to his wife & taking up with a lady boy but sexual abuse against children & women is a serious offense than needs to be 100% confrimed before possibly ruining a mans life by pursuing jail time.

GuestHouse Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I'm out of the country on a business trip and have gotten multiple calls about a farang British National (who claims to be a mason) who has moved into my village Don't answer the phone .....and made a right mess of things. Non of your business. It seems he has kicked his Thai wife out of a house which is in her name and she had to moved to Bangkok. Non of your business. He has remained and taken up with a ladyboy in the house. Non of your business Things seem to get weird from here. He is verbally abusive to everyone, including the police. Non of your business I've also been told he has "touched" people (children and women) in offensive ways. Unless you personally have proof of this - Don't go around spreading the rumour - It is an accusation of the vilest behaviour but without proof and as gossip it is alos the vilest of accusations and the vilest of gossip. The police don't want to deal with it unless they are forced to, but a lot of people want to get this guy out. Non of your business People like this give all foreigners a bad name in Thailand and only reinforce the stereotypes and xenophobia that we are already dealing with. I would suggest you are not doing a bad job yourself 1. With sticking your nose into other people's business and 2. by spreading vile rumour (which is just as effective at tarring people as proven allegations. Any suggestions? Yes I have - Grow up and live your own life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bino Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I have a solution for your problem farang. Somewhere between your house and his, dig a really big hole. Fill the hole with ashes, about halfway. Surround the hole with fresh green garden peas. Then wait. When he comes to take a pea, kick him in the ash hole.
