Tokay Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I'm not sure what was going on with this scene, but it looked a little odd. Does it really take 5 tourist police to handle 1 man in a wheel chair who didn't have any friends with him? What could he have possibly done to deserve that much attention? Or was he someone special who was being protected? No telling in this city. Please, do tell, it was a most unusual sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guderian Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Not wearing a crash helmet, so probably a 1000 Baht fine was thought necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost in LOS Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 (edited) He might have tried to take a picture of the TPV without permission and they had to rough him up a bit........ Edited October 23, 2009 by Lost in LOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hm1973 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 He had refused to pay his bill of 600 Baht in Candyshop and was very drunk (and a bit combative as well). The Manager decided to let him off the bill but wanted him removed from the establishment. He eventually left himself with a bit of help from two Thai Volunteers with me and another Foreign Assistant there as back-up. Thats all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrry Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 If that was the case fine. I would only be concerned if it was an access problem or the person didnt want him there because of his disabillity.. Discrimination is illegal here too but many do not know.

davethailand Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 If its the same wheelchair bound guy that was in my bar one night then i'm not surprised it took several of them, he was an absolute nightmare trying to hit everyone in his path including trying to bite people who were trying to help him down steps etc, he got thrown out of 4 bars including mine.

Yes, I know this bloke and he is an absolute nightmare. He molests women as well. A bad egg. I don't care if he is wheelchair bound or not he is a bad egg.

Ulysses G. Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 (edited) We had a creep in a wheelchair in Chiang Mai some years ago who was one of the rudest individuals I have ever met. It took a while, but he got taken for his business and ridden out of town on a rail. Edited October 23, 2009 by Ulysses G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you would take your work serious, like a professional, you would never ever talk on a public forum about individual cases, its called work ethics, which you clearly lack, shame on you.

If you would take your work serious you would never ever talk on a public forum about individual cases, its called work ethics. Yet it also quashes rumours, speculation and whispers. It comes down to whether you reckon a wall of silence (protecting those who are in the wrong) vs Individual responsibility for ones actions is the best thing.
