Oh, com on guys,......He's just another quality tourist.....who let's a million bath.... at home.....and a kilogram gold.....!!!!

Man speaks out against the scum that are the thai police. Good for him

Scum calling the police scum?

They fact that he is going to police station almost every day is indicating that he is sure he is not in wrong.

If u be in wrong u would not go there would u?

Doubt he'll ever see his money or gold back..

That's if it was ever in his flat in the first place.

Why not. From pics he looks like multi milionaire....

Wonder his net worth? My guess 100mln $ in his prime

the guy has dragged himself up from his bootstraps.

You may not like his style or his methods but I doubt he gives a shIt.

Lot of envy on this thread.

Leave the man alone.

You share a mutual friend (guy in wheelchair). Why not ask Tim yourself.

I meet him twice on streets and talked. His orite. Even just meet him first time and he iffered he can show around if i dont know pattaya..

Makes me proud to be an Aussie

I sure hope that you can find other and better reasons than Sharky to be a proud aussie

It was sarcasim

He is not aussie

I always think it is best to keep a low profile here in Thailand....

A self-made crim who makes a living off prostiutes and using standover tactics? Very commendable.

Then he will probably get citizenship.

Didnt say it was commendable or otherwise, I havent walked a mile in his shoes so I cannot judge.

For a guy who is not working, legally that is, would the police not want to know where all that money came from? Is it not all those illegal workers that are causing a lot of grief for the genuine expats who live, work and pay taxes in this country.

A million Baht in cash and a kilo of gold lying around his house?

Hiding from the tax man?

I think this money probably comes from criminal activities . Money comes, money goes.

A quality tourist, exactly what TAT wants...

which is so fascinating about thai police they are not aggressive, while usa up the gun for nothing, just look in usa eg there should be little for the police shoot you, while here in thailand they keep quiet. Thailand 1 us 0 ......

Somehow I don't feel sorry for him , even if the cops took the money and gold. I'm sure he will find new victims to "rob".

Judging by the size of his guts he looks like he needs to be put out to pasture. His stubble and big mouth alone won't frighten the police.

Maybe one day you will be shaken down by the police and have drugs planted on you.

Then maybe you will see HIS point of view.

Personally, I treat everyone with the same respect despite their appearance.

But seems most of you back up the Pattaya police here because of Sharky's appearance.

We support the Police - we're not going to call a wild hair if we need help. Who cares how he looks, he is out of control. Though in the photo he looks rabid. Poor soul.

police are intimidated ?

and why is he not in jail if they found drugs in his appartment?

RTP took their cut already, case solved

The irony of this story is that Tim got some of his own treatment... Do a bit of research on how this guy made his $$$, then you will see the humor in this shakedown...

He feeds a few soi dogs (big deal) and protects a few prostitutes (spurious). So what! He still loan sharks with all the anti-social behaviour that that entails. Go back to Waitara and get an honest job in the meatworks, you parasite. And do it before you get blown away, because I fear you have signed your own death warrant.

Sorry, your point of view is out-moded. We've just been instructed that every (every) single person deserves the same (exactly the same) respect, regardless of appearance. So don't try to link anybody's appearance to what they do most of the time, because there is no connection at all. Ever.

he still got clubs in australia

The kilo of gold wasn't lying around his apartment it was around his neck, and on his wrist- notice in the pic he's not wearing his trade mark gold? He's not a bad guy- to many guys judgemental on here by the way someone looks.

Just dont tell him he has too many tattoos

Makes me proud to be an Aussie

Actually a Kiwi mate

'... one local Journalist, Khun Chocktawee aged 46, claims he was assaulted by Mr. Ward ...' No surprise there, given Thai journalists' habit of getting up close and far too personal.

Makes me proud to be an Aussie

"Timothy John Ward was born in 1965 in Waitara, Taranaki, New Zealand, and is better known as Tim Sharky. A lone wolf from the outset, Tim was given up for adoption at birth, and after a misspent youth, he moved to Australia to make a new life for himself in 1990."

Nice to see a man who stands up and refuses to bend over.

Nasty piece of work who is up for a good blacklisting!

he is a kiwi thank god
