It's like the Russian version of Uncle Sam wants you.

Naah couldn't have happened...a made up story. According to the property pimps, Pratumnak is the "Beverly Hills" of Pattaya.

And who rents a "villa" in Pattaya that has windows with no bars...those cheapo aluminum sliders ain't gonna stop anyone.

Many people, obviously.

Robbery/break in while the home is occupied. Very daring, very dangerous. Just glad they did not wake

up during the robbery and try to intervene, its just stuff.

And what about a LOUD alarm ????

Too many possibilities which all pint back to the Thais and their irresponsible, unaccountable, apathetic approach to life and others.

When was the last time the locks were changed?

When was the last time the room was rented by someone who popped out with the keys and returned with doubles, for future reference?

Who?... when?... why?...etc. etc. etc. ad nauseum.

The only thing I get out of this is the consistency in which Thais never seem to disappoint me when it comes to pure and simple destructive self behavior towards themselves, others and legitimate and any good opportunity in general.

Translated: Another day in Thailand.

Well at least we got to seven posts before the reflexive Thai bashing rant appeared,

"And who walks around Pattaya with a gold neklace worth 75000 baht" Why do you thai apologists always chime in and blame the farang victim. Why did you not reply to the killing this week of the thai site foreman ?

Why did you not post your usual reply, blaming the victim ? WHY

Because we have to pick our spots...there's too much stupidity for us to keep track of. If it will make you feel better, I'll go and make said post about the stupid Thai fella as well.

And nobody is "blaming" them for anything. I'm just pointing out that if one rents an insecure home the chance of being burgled is higher than a secure one.

I suspect that the Russians didnt even have the window closed and were just using the mosquito screen part that can be seen in the photo. I do that in my condo at night but I doubt that anyone will be climbing around the walls outside to get up to my floor.

I was in a busy restaurant in Central recently. On his own at the table next to me was a Russian with a new Sony laptop. At one point he put the laptop in its bag, put the bag down on the table and walked away towards the till. He did this all in one motion so he clearly hadnt forgotten the laptop on the floor or anything like that. I thought that was a bit daring but assumed that he was going to pay his bill and come back. But I watched him walk right out of the restaurant and towards the toilets on the far side of the concourse. I thought that was even more daring. Then to my amazement he walked right past the toilets and into the car park area. He came back to the restaurant well over 10 minutes later and sat back down at his table.

Many a night I have gone to sleep with 20000 baht sitting on my coffee table.
