Popular Post spidermike007 Posted September 30, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 30, 2014 But.... there is no "Mafia" in Thailand, according to the Police Generals..... Mafia is just a term used for criminal activity. Here, it is often unorganized, and random. Mafia is not the correct term, as that term implies intelligence, planning, organization, discipline, and vision. None of these incredibly tiny reptilian criminals have any of those qualities. All they have in common is the burning desire to not have to work for a living, and to steal that which does not belong to them. And they know there is no deterrent to this kind of crime, as the police nationwide are about as useful as a winter coat in Thailand. So, as long as they have the cash, no reason to worry about the cops. The police here are simply a revenue collection agency, and appear to have little interest in, or aptitude for solving crimes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuchulainn Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Suthep's home province; Mafia, corruption, land grabs, intimidation, palm oil every where. No, sorry, don't put words into my mouth that i was'nt thinking... 555, what a stupid comment. Does that mean everything wrong in Chang Mai is Thaksin's fault ?. Grow up.

ggt Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Can not imagine the angst the villagers feel on a daily basis...waiting for the goons to show up and harass or even kill them and their family members...who can be trusted in a place like this?

Paulzed Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) Absolutely disgusting story, what a disgrace....I am so glad that I don't live in Thailand anymore. Reading between the lines makes it obvious. You'd love to live in Thailand. Please be honest. Is it really better to live in the States, the UK, or somewhere in Europe,or elsewhere? Nope, there's no Russian, Turkish, Albanian, Italian, etc Mafia in let's say Germany. They're everywhere. I am so glad that I live here for 12 years and will hopefully be able to continue doing so until they cremate me in my wife's village. Living here with, or without any Mafiosi.- Ohhhh!! What a heart warming story, it almost brought a tear to my eye....Until I realised that the post is about poor Thai villagers that have been murdered and told that they have to leave their home that is their legal right to stay there, by a pack of animals parading as humans that have no respect for the law or for other people, and have no legal right to be there threatening poor and defenceless people. So much for the fantastic story that we are 95% Buddhists in this country. I haven't seen one true Buddhist yet and I have 30 years experience in Thailand. I am fairly sure that you will be singing a different song if the same thing happened in your village, you may think about changing your name to lost in space Edited September 30, 2014 by Paulzed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am fairly sure that you will be singing a different song if the same thing happened in your village, you may think about changing your name to lost in space Will forgive you when you tell us that you had some space cake in your blood circulation, when writing your post.... Do you really wanna start talking about how deadly Christianity for so many people was and still is? About the bad witches and crusaders? What does that mean that you've got 30 years experience in Thailand? An annual holiday in Pattaya, perhaps? 30 years experience with bar girls, or what? How the heck can you make such a statement that you haven't seen a "true" Buddhist? How do you define a true believer? A roman catholic priest, raping little boys, maybe? I deeply respect a monk, near my wife's village, where people from all over Thailand come to see him. When I met him the first time 12 years ago, he knew things about me, my wife didn't know. He had been a monk for 25 years and is really an educated guy, who seem to know answers to all possible questions. There might be some people on this forum, who'll agree that there're true Buddhists in this country, as not all are cheating. Which finally leads me to the conclusion that I'll stay as I am. Lost In Isaan. But I love it here. I have lived in my wife's village for quite a long time, went out to the rice fields, as I wanted to know where I am. Have you ever lived in a smaller village and speaking their language? Would you please let us know where you'rte residing? I assume there's no crime, no Mafia, no rape, no problems at all, right? Just be honest and let us all know that you're lost in space,as you'd by accident eaten the wrong cake. It's not a shame when you blame the space cake for your lost post. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. Hey, I do the same and there is nothing wrong with keep abreast of what's going on there. While I have been visiting Thailand for over 30 years and there are certain aspects of the country I like, that doesn't mean I necessarily want to live there. There was a time I almost bought a condo there but I don't see Thailand through rose tinted glasses anymore. I have good friends that do live there and like it but I personally don't want to spend my life there. I do like a less chaotic environment and don't want to spend most of the year going from air conditioned condo to air conditioned malls, restaurants, etc. Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket are just overcrowded, dirty, places in my book but that is just my opinion and yes I would rather stay in something far closer to Utopia than Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddy B Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 The 50 soldiers were most likely hired thugs. It is easy enough to get your hands on any kind of military clothes here in Thailand. I have a 100% army jacket given to me from a Thai man on his way to sign-out of the army as he had served his time. Go to any of the festivals and there are people selling fatigues and army gear all the time. I hope the people living in this place get help and not be bullied into moving just because some person has money to hire thugs to try and do it.

Longtooth Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 <script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script> Now the mafia have military support? Read my lips " there is no mafia in Thailand" I wonder what they call them? The Alliance for Reform and Resolution aka ARR (pronounced "arrrr" ) ? You know like pirate talk. "Arrrrr! And them's what died be the lucky ones!" (Long John Silver) If the powers don't come down with both feet hard, and "in the news" over this, I am going to lose some enthusiasm. I am full of it right now. (Enthusiasm, that is.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for 50 soldiers and mafia, standing over people, well that's not the first time and won't be the last, they maybe buddy's with the soldiers that took the money n cars in Khon Kean? cause it wasn't the cops.

That;s if they actually existed, sounds like a bs story to me. And judging by some of the dumb, halfwit, redneck racist comments flying around here, there are a lot of melons out there.
