Has a new trend emerged, pointing using 2 fingers ! Is this a first ?

[NE1]

Economy pointing , there are two suspects.

[cornishcarlos]

Just don't point with 3 fingers, or you'll be hauled away for 'attitude adjustment'....

They arrested ladyboy's what?

Dear God Almighty, the plural of ladyboy is ladyboys. What on earth is so hard about basic literacy?

Agreed, but maybe the writer's first language is not English?

The vision of the mongos and the cobra comes to mind when they mention Indian and

LB encounters...

[richusa]

The Indians are so smart and clever.

[Lupatria]

It's time to add a sub-section to the news: The usual daily routine.

It would be a different story, wouldn't it be boys, if this story was published back home. The wives might see it. You would scamper as fast as you could once the flash bulbs started popping. A word of advice, Stop playing with Ladyboys even if they tickle your fancy.

Three "finger pointing" posts removed. The "joke" is getting old guys.

And another post removed for being just unfunny nonsense

A,ha, the old 'ladyboy want to give you a hug' trick - no thanks, lost my iPhone in a bar thanks to receiving a hug one night - not sure if it was a ladyboy - never again - I am a hug free zone!

[konying]

This is a poor Indian, they usually have 35 000 baht in their pockets

[Jip99]

Well done the BiB.

[rabksaj]

The main thing is did the tourists get their money back?

[Nemesis7]

There is nothing wrong with the Indians if you read the article you would see they were approached and was mugged, or pick pocketed. And just FYI Brits, German, Italian tourists were subject to similar incidents, just do a search on the web.

The Indians are learning, it was only 4 k baht stolen not the usual 30 k and they realized what was going on and got police help

and proper descriptions of the perps. This allowed to police to make a quick arrest. Well done by everyone I say. My only question

now is what will be the eventual outcome? A 500 baht fine and a stern lecture or 3-6 months in jail. I would love to know but all we

ever seem to hear about is the original incident report.

[manarak]

What is it with proof reading in Thailand?

Why such a blatant error already in the title!

No wonder so much people imitate it.

[manarak]

and great job by the police, I must say!

[rabksaj]

I live in the uk I. My house was burgled and the two thieves stole £1000. I called the police and the thieves were caught in a few minutes and a police helicopter was deployed at the time to catch them. I never got my money back it mysteriously vanished and the thieves were released on bail only to be freed at later date. This is injustice but those indians are very lucky they got justice in Thailand

mmmmmm not sure its 2 fingers - one is fat and one is thin and I can count six knuckles!

[maidee]

police seem to know where to find them ... so why are they not in jail ?
