robsamui Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Don't be silly! Can't anyone see it? They just HAD to go out and do this - don't you see? Having lost total face with the pensioners arrest, they just HAD to rush out and show the world they could actually do a righteous card-bust. The orders probably came direct from Bangkok! The fact that it's as ludicrous as the OAP arrests doesn't matter to them - they have gained face back again. It's like living in a 1960s TV series - a cross between "The Land that Time Forgot" and "Lost Tribes of the Amazon". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FredNL Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 It's a good thing that the Dutch Bridge Club and KLM canceled this Sunday's trip with 128 bridge players to a (Puke it) resort for 10 days. Police now have to arrest locals for playing cards. As far as I know there won't be coming any Bridge Playing Dutch this year to Thailand. All bridge trips are canceled and relocated to a Riu all-inclusive resort at Puerto Vallarta. That is 35x 128 players spending eacht about 200,000 THB on their trip. It's only 90 million THB what they have shot themselves in the foot for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razer Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Come on ... it's easy, not dangerous, doesn't take much time and grabs headlines. Why not go after the statng gamblers in their home and old folks? Beats the hell out of patrolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonmarleesco Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Wow, a high stakes game, indeed. A pity the RTP don't demonstrate the same enthusiasm for dealing with real crime, and for dealing with constant nuisances, such as m/c's riding on the pavement.

Nobb Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 The Thia police need to get arrest. But come on card game for 1,100 bahts. Please go out and get the real criminal if you are not scared to do so. The mafia will get you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
