Popular Post starkey_rich Posted January 3, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2015 To all the foreigners visiting or living here in Thailand just please be careful not to bump-heads w the locals.I grew up here and I've visited almost all places in TH(part of my job too).I can speak Thai and honestly I never had a prob w them but then again I'm Southeast Asian too.They just don't like foreigners who disrespect them in their own country no matter who they are or what they are. Just please avoid getting in a fight w them.That's the first rule to keep in mind when coming here. No one likes being disrespected But most races are not so insecure and childish as here. Plus foreigners are disrespected here everyday as I also understand Thai and know what they saying about us. . 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnThailandJohn Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Interestingly enough it is not uncommon for people to tie their hands behind their back before hanging themselves -- some also tape or cover their mouths. It is a way to make sure they go through with the act and don't try to free themselves or scream out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neeranam Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 No conspiracy theories on this one please. Rest in peace to the victim. Hands tied behind back? DUH! No killer would be daft enough to not untie the hands after the hanging. I suspect someone trying to get the arrest of the real murderers of the other two foreigners did it to set them up. Condolences to the family and friends. Why on earth people still go there on holiday is beyond me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Nakajima Posted January 3, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2015 The island chain has always had a dangerous side to it.

Not liking being disrespected by a foreigner in your own country is a character trait not exclusive to the Thais. However, it is how it is handled.

I'm very aware what Thais are capable of saying and doing, that's why even if I seem to come as a broken tape recorder I keep reminding foreigners to be extra careful. You see there are countries which can take/tolerate being disrespected in their own soil but Thailand is not one of those/them.

Muirton Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 STOP! with the Burmese jokes for God's sake.......any Idea how stupid you come across as being? It may seem unlikely that his hands would be tied if it was a suicide but it really isn't that strange or uncommon The idea is to tie their own hands and it only needs to be loosely because the rope used is behind their back They stick there head through the noose jump and the rope, even if it's only dangling behind their back, prevents them from reaching the rope above. Sad that someone would resort to this at such a young age RIP Can you clarify your confusing instructions by showing us how it is done. Please. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yann55 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) Let the investigation take it's course. Thailand is not rife with serial killers or gangsters, most of them come here on the plane. My thoughts exactly .... Frenchman named 'Dimitri' eh? Broaden your horizons, why don't you? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimitri_Payet A little bit of history : When the bolchevik revolution started, a lot of Russian aristocrats fled to France.Why France ? Because there was a long history of friendship between the elites of both countries, the most famous one between Empress Catherine II and Voltaire around 1770. All educated Russians spoke fluent French. For those who could not bring much money, golds or jewels along with them, a common occupation was driving taxis, so it was not uncommon in those days to be chauffeured along the streets of Paris by a Russian Count ... The richest ones, such as the Galitzines, who were Princes and Princesses 'of the blood', already had assets in France and did not exactly 'suffer' in any way, at least not from a material point of view. The name Dimitri is definitely of Russian origin, and French men who bear it nowadays are most likely to be of Russian descent. However, the spelling D.I.M.I.T.R.I. is specifically French whereas the original transliteration would be Dmitry, Dmitri, Dmitrii or Dmitriy, sometimes also Dmitrij. How does that relate with the murder on Koh Tao ? Well, my point is that if the guy's name was spelled DIMITRI then yes, he was most probably French. If, on the other hand it was spelled DMITRI (as indicated on the OP), then it's most likely that he was either half Russian or very recently got a French passport. In the latter option it could mean that the Russian mafia is somehow involved. As we all know, the Russian mafia are known for being one of the most unforgiving and 'examples' are often made in gruesome ways, with clear 'signs' sent to other people by leaving this or that obvious clue on the corpse.

Popular Post catsanddogs Posted January 3, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2015 There is a news article that was recently discussed where a french man could identify the killers of Hannah and David do we read anything into this maybe the mafia heard about the news article and thought this was the person. But the news was corrected afterwards saying that the 'Frenchman' who posted pictures on the internet of two men who threatened him was not French but was Sean McAnna. So either the media got their information wrong, the RTP got it wrong, or there was a Frenchman involved (maybe a witness) but for some reason it was brushed under the carpet and hushed up. On another train of thought regards McAnna's statement about being asleep on the morning of the murders - might it be possible that he said this publicly to let the murderers know, (if he knew who they were) that he was not going to spill the beans about anything he may have witnessed. This should be on another thread I know, so sorry all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neeranam Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Pattaya scum center of Thailand, Samui island chain and Phuket not far behind. Lol, it is amazing to see people calling Koh Tao "Island of death", or even suggesting nuking the place. I'm pretty sure most of those people are backpacker hating Pattaya resident sexpats, or probably spent a lot of time at Pattaya at some part of their lifes. Pattaya, which is famous for murders happening on a weekly basis. Pattaya, which has not only the local mafia, but also mafias from around the world, like Russian mafia, Arab mafia, Turkish mafia etc. And yet you never hear those backpacker hating sexpats bashing Pattaya. The murders at Koh Tao was big news, because it is so rare. Murders at Pattaya aren't big news, because it happens so much that it doesn't have a news value. You want to nuke a place, fine, then go for Pattaya. An incredible amount of scum would be wiped out of earth and Thailand's murder rates would drop instantly. No no, Pattaya is miles ahead of Samui in that area. Phuket maybe not tat far behind. When I first arrived in Thailad there were two farang beheaded on Koh Pa Ngan and it was a fairly quiet little island, in 1992. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
