Belgian 80, Attacked and Robbed by Teenage Gang on Christmas Day in Pattaya
There is something seriously wrong with many of these locals and all you need to do is watch the news for a week or two. They can be overly aggressive and it doesn't take much to set them off. Young and old often don't respect others including family, fear the law or the repercussions of their actions. Add the fact the roads are death traps and it changes the Land of Smiles to something less pleasant very quickly. IMHO, this is not somewhere you want to be if the economy takes a downturn as crime and violence could make this a very unsafe place to visit or call home, Time to seriously think of other options and do it sooner rather than later. -

Is Earth round or flat❓
Yes me too❗Same experience and I've oft wondered about this...as 3 of them were very close friends. On this point, I totally agree. And the one below. Which is healthy, of course, up to a point anyway. But I firmly believe that if Flat Earth was the scientific consensus, then all these FLERFS of the world would be "globe-heads" now and banging that drum. 😁 -

I HATE Thai Immigration - 90 day online report frustrations
AFAIK that is correct. However you have to report in person to the IO you normally lose. I have been doing it that way for a long time. -

I can't stop thinking - My mind is constantly busy - Looking for the answer .
Buddha's Teachings on the Restless Mind The Restless Mind as the Enemy: The Buddha described the untamed mind as an enemy because it clings, wanders, and creates illusions of permanence. "The mind is difficult to control; swiftly and lightly, it moves and lands wherever it pleases." — Dhammapada Redirecting the Restless Mind: Focus on the breath to anchor it. Practice mindfulness or engage in wholesome activities to ground the mind. Reframe the Struggle: View the restless mind as a teacher. Each moment of distraction is an opportunity to gently guide it back. -

Chinese Man Arrested in Pattaya for Pawn Shop Scam with Fake Gold
Picture of arrest. Pattaya Tourist Police have arrested a 29-year-old Chinese man, Mr. Deng Huanyou, for orchestrating a scheme involving fake gold jewellery at pawn shops across the city. The arrest took place on December 25, at Pattaya Third Road, Bang Lamung District, Chonburi. The suspect was caught with a forged gold bracelet weighing 3.5 baht and a pawn ticket from a local pawn shop dated the same day. Police also confiscated 80,000 baht in cash, believed to have been obtained from the fraudulent pawn. The arrest followed a series of complaints from local pawn shop owners who reported being duped by a foreign man pawning fake gold jewellery. By the time the forgery was discovered, the suspect had already fled with the cash. Upon learning of the incidents, Pol. Lt. Gen. Saksira Phueakam, Commissioner of the Tourist Police Bureau, instructed officers to track down the perpetrator swiftly. Investigators received a tip-off that the suspect had recently pawned a counterfeit gold bracelet at a well-known pawn shop on Pattaya Third Road. Police set up surveillance and intercepted Mr. Deng as he exited the shop. Upon searching him, officers found the pawn ticket, the fake gold bracelet, and the cash. Confronted with overwhelming evidence, the suspect admitted to his crime and collapsed to the ground in apparent shock, requiring assistance to stand. Mr. Deng later confessed to the charges and has been handed over to Pattaya Police for further legal proceedings. He faces charges of fraud and is expected to be prosecuted under Thai law. Authorities have urged pawn shop owners to remain vigilant against similar scams, especially during the busy holiday season. -- 2024-12-26
