Afterwards they came out to Second Road to buy fruit when two young men on a motorbike rode up to them and snatched a gold chain from his neck, worth around 200,000 baht.

guzzi850m2 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Well he is asking for it, a 200k baht necklace, must be very heavy. Could be an insurance scam, he doesn't look like he is about to cry or stressed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brer Fox Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Being relieved of his his necklace must have been a real show stopper. Just another case of where vanity overrules sanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny when at take off they want to go up to take their camera off. For me its the movies. 2) All the time in four and five star hotels. Never had a problem with them and some birds look really nice. 3) Never heard the term Zero Baht tourists but I guess they don't stay in properties which I frequent. I do have to say that in the hotel I am always staying are currently 35-40% Chinese FIT users but they dont come on tours. Had a hell of problems with some horny farang guys on Jomtien and Pattaya Beach but thank Buddha I had no problems with the Chinese tourists at Dusit, Royal Cliff etc. As they say if you pay peanut you get monkeys. If some 1 Dollars Chinese tourists walk around in Pattaya I have no problems with them. Edited August 8, 2016 by MobileContent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am considering open a Chinese restaurant, minimart or a Karaoke bar in Pattaya serving only Chinese of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torrens54 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) Ah, I find it 'mazing that Chinese man who had such expensive and presumably hefty chain ripped from his neck is still wearing his head. I Would have thought the act of ripping it off his neck would result in at least some damage to his skin.

It comes from Chinese tour groups( and not all of them). The hotels use them to fill the empty rooms. They get great rates at 2-4 star hotels in Bangkok. Then they shop at Chinese owned stores and restaurants, booked by Chinese owned tour groups. These groups to not stay at Dusit. Although many Chinese people do. While waiting for a flight from Bangkok to Malaysia, I watched 30 Chinese fill empty water bottles from a water fountain. With 1.3 billion people, there are always rich and poor. But China is the only country which show videos at airports on how to behave when traveling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cigar7 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 If the police were serious about catching, or curtailing, these grab and run robbers, they could easily setup several sting operations. Just get a gold coloured necklace, put it on tourist police volunteer in a popular roadway, and station a few police nearby ready to grab the guys.
