MeetJohnDoe Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 ...when it comes to being killed According to today's Post, the cost for an ordinary contract killing of your generic Thai Somchai and Somying is only 30k baht or thereabouts. But for the rub-out of a pesky farang, it'll cost the buyer the same as for the killing of a rich, famous, or important Thai society, business, or government official...namely 1 million baht or more. So the next time your feeling put-upon by life in Thailand, just remember you're Hi-So too Interesting article...cover story in the Spectrum magazine.

TheWalkingMan Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Rubbing out a foreigner? I would be surprised if it really was 1 million baht. Just grab a yabba head and point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanForbes Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I thought most Thais did it for free in a fit of anger. Contract killings are usually business oriented and happen everywhere. In Vancouver BC, Canada there were a whole bunch of contract killings already this year. It doesn't concern me too much because most of us stay out of those circles.

webfact Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) Wow... some 25y ago the going rate was reasonable around 3K. What an increase! Edited July 6, 2009 by webfact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAWP Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Wow... some 25y ago the going rate was reasonable around 3K. What an increase! Don't confuse a drive-by by some jaba-heads on a MC that may or may not be successful with a contract with a professional with results guaranteed.
