ezzra Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 There're hundreds, if not thousands more like them hiding in plain sight.... so much so that Thailand should consider a special visa class for fugitive of the law and run of the mill criminals....

zakk9 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 TAT media campaigns definately work. Look at the fugutives flocking to visit Amazing Thailand. Three thumbs up! Considering the decorations in the photo, the should give these events a name, like "Thailand Criminals in Captivity Festival". They could have parades in major cities with the (un)fortunate captives walking up front, with their T-shirts, sunglasses and all, handing out confiscated monies and other stuff to the crowds. A monthly event wouldn't be too much, and make it a public holiday too, to boost revenue from tourism. "Thailand, the Hub of Captivating Festivals"? They could even have special parades for corrupt public servants, one for politicians obviously, no other qualities needed than actually being or having been a politician. And so on...

Bluespunk Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 So Germans, Russians and Taiwanese are termed men and women but the Chinese are "nationals". Is this some new gender law in china? No more sexes please, we're Chinese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technologybytes Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Its notable that Thailand does not ask about criminal record when you apply for a visa or enter the country. Perhaps they should include the question "are you a fugitive or international criminal mastermind ?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She didn't even get the souvenir T-shirt One of the BIB in the background also has no jacket on. Perhaps the lady was "negotiating" the terms of her release with him when they got the photo-call and forgot their tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sumrit Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 quality tourists,they propaly will all be back in Thailand again in 12 months. But only if their home countries give them a slap on the wrist instead of a real 'deterrent' sentence. People on here also seem to forget that they were caught in Thailand but were able to escape detection and freely leave their home countries.

Pib Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Thailand is famous for being a criminal junk pot all along! Now if Thailand could make a lot more of these arrests Thailand would lose its top destination ranking for criminals on the run. Not sure TAT will support that.

Thailand appear to be catching more than some countries. After all every criminal caught in Thailand is one the their home country failed to catch and allowed to travel.

blazes Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Immigration wants a criminal record check for anyone applying for an O-A visa. Maybe they should extend that courtesy to all applicants. Maybe even the visa-on-arrival quality tourists should also be asked to produce the evidence that they are "clean". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
