Wilsonandson Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 It's his parents he should apologize to not the Thai people. Although I guess he had wasted precious police time and resources in the hunt for him. Naughty boy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeegee Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 What a horrible country. Yes he was a silly boy but these arrogant selfish Thais should be apologizing for all the scams and thuggery they put innocent foreign 'guests' through. Again and again I am convinced they don't deserve any tourists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Punk send multiple messages to his family suggesting he was a kidnapping victim and might be murdered. He put his entire family on high alert even to the point that his mother considered traveling to Thailand to search for his sorry ass. While it wasn't necessary to report in to mom and pop every 24 hours, he was incredibly stupid to concoct such an absurd story that scared the sh*t out of his family back home. Another loser who falls for the many thrills (and enthrallments) Thailand has to offer. There is nothing wrong with that. But at least be honest if you don't want to return home as scheduled and put your family's minds at rest so they don't have to worry. Immature, selfish punk! And as for Thailand: No apology from him to the country as a whole was necessary, because Thailand has never apologized to the world for any REAL murders of foreign tourists either. Ever. At least I have not seen or heard of a single case. Has Thailand apologized to Britain for the recent Koh Tao murders? You can bet your ass she didn't.

Jeremy50 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 What absurd posturing. What sort of idiotic game are they playing here? Would a Thai in a similar position in the UK, have to apologize to the nation? Thailand should make a New Years resolution to do away with hubris and 'face', or simply put away such childish, petulant values, and grow up.

NongKhaiKid Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 If we now have the truth where's the ' misunderstanding ' between him and his family he's claiming as it seems clear that he was playing for more time to stay here so told a serious, unnecessary lie without any concern for the fear and worry that he was causing his family .

slipperylobster Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Boy wants drama...boy gets drama. Tit for T.A.T. I suppose all the attacks on Brits this year have brought alot of pressure on Thailand to take action. So they did. This case was easy, though. I don't know if it is because they are easy targets, or otherwise obnoxious...but Brits have sure been taking on alot of public humiliation this year. I would recommend they tread carefully.

Radar501 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Why apology to Thai people ? Jordan is a guest in Thailand and, due to his selfish and thoughtless actions, has wasted considerable finite police resources......such expense ultimately met by the Thai people, and better utilized elsewhere. A humiliating apology to everyone concerned is the very least this young fellow should offer. EDIT: but yes, maybe a few police man-hours could have been saved if every cop in town didn't hang around to appear in the trophy photo.

Yes he was a silly boy but these arrogant selfish Thais should be apologizing for all the scams and thuggery they put innocent foreign 'guests' through. Again and again I am convinced they don't deserve any tourists. I've seen apologies from Thais caught scamming and other offences involving tourists but it's to the country for any damage to the national reputation and the the tourist industry naturally, never to their victims.Before being paraded did this young idiot have access to anyone from the British Embassy so if not who ' whispered ' in his ear that an apology was necessary ? I'm not convinced he would have thought of it himself. Edited December 19, 2015 by NongKhaiKid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
