JLCrab Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) Hey -- good publicity, bad publicity ... whatever gets you on the first Google Search page and he didn't even have to pay an SEO consultant. Now everybody knows KT is where all the hot young girls like to go. 23 JAN 2015: Did you check to see if these girls are still alive? No -- but maybe they're next.

petedk Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 He has got to admit that there has been an unusual large number of deaths on such a small island. Some have dubious causes, some probably suicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongoz Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Nobody informed the family that she died of natural causes - they worked it out and decided themselves as it is so obvious to them what her cause of death was!! BTW I never claimed anything, I just stated facts and her family's opinions. If someone drowns after a boat capsizes they still have to do an autopsy on the body. Are you for real?

Popular Post Gweiloman Posted January 26, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 26, 2015 Surely the mayor will appreciate your unrelenting support. As do all his relatives than own these resorts that so many people get raped, murdered, and die suspiciously so often. Your hard work defending this island, police, and all the nasty families, like a soi dog does with his bone, is so desperately appreciated by these scum respected people. Flaming commentary aside. This has little to do with the Mayor of Koh Tao, you don't find anything objectionable if the press pushes a story that is not supported by facts? The ethical prerogative of the press is to inform the public, not to manufacture public outrage. What story that's not supported by facts? That her death is connected with mafia activity. The point was made pretty clear in the first post That's what he's claiming. I have not read any articles from the British media stating that her death is connected with mafia activity 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockingrobin Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Even the governor of Surat Thani recently as expressed concerns over tourist safety on Khao Tao, (during the recent double Murder) A quote Meanwhile, sources close the governor of Surat Thani province told Khaosod that provincial authorities are considering sacking Thaweesak Inprom, the chief district officer overseeing Koh Tao island, for allegedly neglecting to protect tourists’ safety. "Mr. Thaweesak has been reprimanded many times about the safety of tourists," the source claimed. "And ever since the murder on Koh Tao took place, he has not reported to his superiors at all." Officials say they will now implement more measures to protect tourists on Koh Tao, such as additional lighting and CCTVs in "risky areas." http://www.khaosoden...0853303= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim walker Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Why should he be upset at the press freedom in the UK if SURAT THANI is in such a positive situation why does he not organise an international press conference and give his honest view with regards to the safety and care of foreign tourists on Koh Tao island and then the people in the UK can judge for themselves once they get both sides of the story because we all know there are two sides to each story and the truth is some ware in the middle, people in the UK are not brainwashed under normal circumstances and they will decide for themselves. He might even get a picture of himself on page 3 of the Sun if he is very convincing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falangjim Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) It's good to see the mayor angry. He screwed up months ago and now he's paying the price. I can't seem to upload to this forum some screen shots of chat to potential tourists, but I am glad to have done my part in persuading friends TO NOT VISIT KOH TAO OR KOH SAMUI Some are quite unaware of what happened in September, so I am all too glad to warn them of its dangers. I tell them to come and enjoy Thailand, but stay away from Koh Tao and Koh Samui. They listen. Believe me, they listen. They go to other islands or just stop in Bangkok before heading to Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos. I tell them to enjoy Thailand, but don't step foot on these places. I'm glad to have done my part in keeping decent people from those crap-holes. Edited January 26, 2015 by falangjim 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loonodingle Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) So I take it, from the avalanche of people attacking the Mayor, that they are perfectly OK with the press resorting to rumor mongering then? "Mayor Chaiyan Turasakul said he is angered by unspecified "British media agencies" who have suggested that the death of the tourist, Christina Annesley, is connected to an alleged "mafia" syndicate on Koh Tao island." There is no indication whatsoever that the death of that woman was in any way connected with a mafia syndicate, none, zero. Is it too much to ask of the press not to peddle sensationalist speculation I do wonder if you are on Koh Tao sometimes. Whilst wild speculation isn't needed, its the job of the press to raise questions surely. without the press holding people to account and asking questions this world would be in far worse state. AleG... Your not daft ... You can see that surely. Sensationalism isn't needed but questions should always be asked M8.

Lovekorat Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 So you don't want negative reporting by a 'free' press ( you understand the term 'free press) Then Get the criminal element on the island sorted out. Do you deny there is one? Oh and by the way, the British press haven't even started yet. You'd better hope they really don't get the bit between their teeth and send a few 'holidaymaker' reporters over. They love situations like this , exposing corruption, blatant criminality etc. oh dear, you have NO idea what they could do to the reputation ( not that there is much left only bad ) of your island and the thugs that control it do you ( allegedly)' no idea at all. And don't think for one minute that the UK press are the only people watching....the code within journalism is world wide. Throwing epithets at them is quite amusing. Smacks of desperation I'm afraid. Sort it out, that's all we all want, especially the families of those who have died in your 'paradise' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think all parents have common sense in their statements when they lose a loved one? If so then we really do need to listen to these ones also The parents of a British holidaymaker who died in suspicious circumstances in Thailand are convinced he was murdered – and the killing covered up to protect tourism. Nick Pearson, 25, was on a family vacation to the island of Koh Tao when he was found dead on New Year’s Day. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/thailand-beach-death-parents-convinced-4410135 Edited January 26, 2015 by thailandchilli 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
