Do you stand outside the airport asking every tourist exactly how they spent every baht as they leave to give you the supreme insight as to how little an impact they may have had on the economy during their stay? Maybe you need to get off your high horse and try meet some folks dependent on tourist income for their living before spouting such drivel (but I suppose you dine nightly with the Minister of Tourism or the head of TAT.....)

harrry Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) Until now I thought the only thing a French person did with horses was eat them. Though I do seem to recall some fuss over Bardot and some people hiring Donkeys to ride. I do feel sorry for her though as any person who has set up a life here as she had must have a lot of people she cares for here.

Miss Bardot is into Animal Rights and has been for quite some years, I applaud her, as she says what she thinks,, which does not go down well with the French.. Alors....Viva Miss Bardot....

If you help the right person a mistake can be overlooked. Overstaying 103 days Is NOT a mistake. It's a wilful disregard for the laws of Thailand.

mikebike Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 The key to this story is here: "The 47-year-old Catherine Laurence Bardot, was arrested by Immigration Police and officials from Phuket Provincial Employment Office". She worked in another province that I know of, WP status at that time unknown. She may have gotten off easy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony125 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Well if she still wants to come back in 5 years she will be 52 and she can get a retirement visa. If she marries a Thai guy can get a marriage visa and work with horses with a WP or as a woman can become a Thai citizen in a little over a year.

Mansell Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 If as it says she was posting on Facebook, then she probably pissed somebody off with some clout.

I guess I was wrong. Different way to make it. If you go to immigration by you self. Then the punishment lower. If the police arresting you. You will have much harder punishment.

GOLDBUGGY Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I don't know! I still think a 5 year ban on a person for no crime committed other than an Overstay is too strict. I think a Fine, and increase that if you have to, would be better option for this kind of Offense. No doubt what she did was against the law, but so is speeding. In my own personal view a speeder on a highway zooming by me at 150 kilometers per hour is more of a danger to me and everyone else, then a French Woman riding a horse. Again if they made it easier for people to stay here, even even if they have to prove they have sufficient funds in the bank every 90 days, what take a lot of this Overstay away.

But this Dhamakaya or whatever he calls himself looks very much like a fake monk to me. I don't think he reached any Jana at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite possibly it was the rival horse owner in Phuket who manages to rub everyone up the wrong way (no names mentioned - hehe).
