LOts of things going on in Jomtien. Ladyboys between  the market and soi 9 waiting to rob you. One   tried to " touch" my thin  silver  chain. Girls and boys on the thin pavements soliciting near soi 5 and on the prom. The market is kept quite clean but the roadsides and pavement are filthy, full of trash. Overflowing bins from the beaches stink to high heaven.Second road pavements are death traps with holes everywhere and again full of trash, wastelands full of abandoned rubbish bags. 

At night, bike gangs, pick ups ,park  and party playing music blasting out and spoiling the trade of the restaurants opposite. Speeding cars, no policing. And this is supposed to be the " nice"side of Pattaya. 

U exaggerating somewhat try walk along the Jomtien beach road i see farangs and thai families kids etc walking ,sitting eating socializing in groups enjoying their freetime.Ofcourse it is not problem free town but how about your hometown?Just now they made a simple playground for young children and its packed.They still try improving.u talk about gangs with music but i see thai youth enjoy (thai) music and hang out they much friendlier than groups of youth in my home town i tell u that.

They do have policing on beach Rd near Soi 5 on a regular basis.

Surely a couple of low class hookers same soi corner is hardly a comparison to Pattaya.

The music is a problem occasionally but most tenants are no where near it and the ruskies in the hotels across the road are so high on vodka they actually dance to it lol

The only contact I had with a lady boy in jomtien in 6 months was when one followed me into soi 12 on her bike and offered a BJ right there. I politely declined and LB sped off.

Jomtien is still a very nice alternative to Pattaya

Whilst loving the new pointing pose... I'm wondering how he can be so sure if he's pointing at the right person, given he didn't know that his pocket had been picked.

Gay or not, he is definitely stupid. He had the fellas wallet away and then hung around waiting to be arrested. Didn't even take the cash out and chuck the wallet. He deserves whats coming.

I consider "smart" thieves to deserve being arrested as much as the stupid ones

He was obviously shown his wallet by the BIB, and where they had found it!  And well done the BIB for a change!

If the fingered guy had a smart lawyer he could easily claim a 10% finders fee from the elderly deplorable farang?Omg he is only 41?.

Oh definitely correct - but the "smart" thieves are more likely to get away with it, which is what I believe darksidedog was implying.

Ah... right... of course.... the BiB told him who to point at ?

Lol... there you go.... a new get out of jail free card, much like the tried and true "brake failure" excuse ???

Indeed - as always! But, seriously, in this case I believe that there was a tiny bit of "pro active" policing involved e.g. suspicious behaviour from the culprit, and possibly recognising him from his previous exploits! i.e. :-

 

"Police soon discovered this was nonsense as Bunchuay had a string of offences for pickpocketing and theft at the resort as well as drugs offences for which he had served time"

 

And re the "pointing finger", as supposedly the BIB have  been told to stop pointing fingers at suspects, it appears that the victims are now being told to do it instead!

200 baht fine (or a communal reacharound) and he'll be back on the beach by nightfall.

Political Correctness (PC) is way over done in developed nations, and now frangs have brought it to Thailand?

Just like changing the label/name on Darkie toothpaste to Darklie, when Thailand was a liberty port for the U.S. Navy.

I expect Thai people got a real laugh out of this silliness.

This must be progress!

How is calling out the sexual orientation of an accused pickpocket a case of PC?Seems to me it's the opposite, as the guy's sex life is totally irrelevant to the incident. 

[lungnorm]

Why is the victim pointing at the thief ? The report said he was unaware he had been robbed so how would he know who to point at ???

Well done Thai police

So you don't read any of the other posts - just the headline?

 

[FarangJon]

I love the pictures of the Thai police, when they all take a photo with the accused for the press like monkeys .

I read enough to know he was not aware he had been robbed. And I do not need to be corrected like a schoolboy. Go back to your Chang!!!!

Bit touchy aren't you? I didn't correct you like a schoolboy - just pointing out that you don't appear to have read that the perpetrator was a known criminal, was acting suspiciously so the police (quite rightly as it turns out) searched him and found the stolen wallet in his possession. They then saw the victim nearby who was unaware that he had been robbed, and probably informed him that his wallet had been found in the possession of said criminal - hence the victim pointing the finger at the accused! And by the way, I find that Chang gives me a terrible hangover - won't touch the stuff!

About as relevant as saying the accused is left handed.

Second thought, that could actually be much more relevant in some theft cases if the victim claims a right hand was used.

An off topic post with pictures trying to hijack the topic has been removed

[digbeth]

Since this is Thailand, perhaps the headline could read

Quote

Buddhist pickpocket rounded.... etc

 

[SOTIRIOS]

...but protect his identity as to not affect his 'career'.....???

 

...he could use any name...but people might be able to remember a face....

 

...such as some of his previous victims...

 

....I really cannot follow this 'reasoning'......

Nice pointing pose.

Can't believe the guy in the photo is 41. Must have had a long paper round.

The name is not correct either so no surprice that the numbers doesnt fit.

 

Guess the correct numbers  should have been 4100thb and 60 yrs...;)

I'm 41 and if I looked that old I'd start to worry. 

If you looked that old at forty one you would probably be a corpse.
