ronwparker Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 One of the few advanteges of the ex general is this type of thing. The RTP were probably getting tea money from the shop. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneday Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 (edited) What unnecessarily dramatic headlines. I'll bet none of these girls were there against their own free will, meaning there was no rescue involved. Somebody just wanted to make headlines to look good to the West for the next TIP report or someone didn't pay their tee money, but I seriously doubt it was done to actually uphold the law and protect underage children.

Would like to know if the lao and khamen girls have/had a WP ? They don't need work permits if their work qualifies under the migrant labour program. Massage and bar work doesn't usually qualify though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaurene Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 many in issan do the same..just 15..makes me feel sick Ye, poor village mums sell their young girls to people who come up from Bangkok, it is normally a guy with a couple women, they tell the mums they have house work for the girls with well to do people the girls range from 12-14yrs. I was told this by a girl it happened to. She was raped in a room in Bangkok by a young Thai guy while being held down by 2 women. She was then taken to a place where there were quite a few youge girls, they were all from Issan. They threatened if she spoke or tried to leave their mother would be punished. Sick bastards.

crazykopite Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 I tried to get a house yellow book from the municipal office in Nathon the girl I approached had a chat with her mate and came back demanding I pay 30,000 baht , of course I refused her offer and asked her why a house book for a farang would cost so much when my farang friend who lives on the next island only paid 200 baht she turned and walked away without answering my question. Yes I have to agree that Samui has got to be one of the worst in the Kingdom for corruption but as far as those involved whether it be police , immigration or government employees it's just away of life and affords them to buy luxuries that most Thais cannot afford as for the military I don't know where they are as I have only seen three soldiers in the past six months and they were drinking coffee in the Amazon coffee house !

waldroj Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 "...whilst the 5 other women continue to help police with their investigations". This will give a novel twist to a police line-up! Another case that's going to take a long, long time before the officers involved can finally concede that, whilst they conducted an exhaustive investigation and probed hard, they have no hard evidence.
