Thieves Attack Chinese Teacher In Isaan School.

[Aussie123]

My Chinese colleague just texted me a few minutes ago , that she was thieves visited their apartment a week ago while they were sleeping.

I am talking about two young girls, 21 and 22 both living inside the school premises. In the beginning of the school term , they were told it was

not safe for them to live out of school like the male foreign teachers. They were not happy with this arrangement as they felt they were being monitored and

not having freedom.

According to one of the girls , she lost some money a couple of weeks ago and only realized the the window upstairs was broken into. She never complained about this but last week , the unexpected happened, She said two guys armed with knives and with their faces totally covered went to the building. They started shouting for help and the thieves ran away without doing any damage.

Now the problem is when they complained to the school authority and the police , the school and the police told them that they have no evidence to proof someone came to attack them. The case was dismissed without any form of investigation whatsoever. All the other Thai teachers living in school also claimed they heard no noise , footsteps or sounds on the night of the incident.

This raises so much questions as our salaries are discussed everywhere with anybody who asks to know. The girls feel they are targeted because of this and right now , i don't feel safe as well.

Anybody with this kind of experience ?

Cheers

If you don't feel safe get out

Tell your colleagues that they should quit the job, move to Bangkok and look for work there or failing that move to another province. Lots of Chinese teachers required for work in Thailand.

Your school sounds like an absolute shambles by the way, I would also advise you to start looking for a school that doesn't sound like its targeting its own staff for robberies.
