Skimpy on details.

We await with bated breath the outcome of this latest affront to Pattaya's reputation.  Meanwhile at the police station haggling still goes on about the bribe money on soi 6.

Great headline. The reporter still has to learn how to write in English. Even Google translate doesn't make such mistakes. It's: Dutch tourist !!!

Where is the rest of the story, or is the latest in reporting, feed them what you get before the story is finished.

 

I hope they find the dog, I mean guide, I mean bar owner and charge him for biting, I mean hitting this tourist.

 

I give up !

There are countries (Japan for instance) and people who translate Dutch to Deutsch which means German.

So Netherlands is right or Holland.

I'd rather see greater use of "Hollander"; sounds much nicer than "Dutch", IMHO.

Named Guide ? Something lost in translation there

[ChiangMaiLightning2143]

Not sure we should go there. A Mestreechteneer for example is a Dutchman but not a Hollander, am I wrong?

or "Tourist from the Netherlands", but your solution is way more efficient.

Dutch tourists are known for their well behaved manners abroad

No further comment needed!

He was blind to it.

I guess he was lucky. From my limited experience with Pataya bar owners in soi 6 I remember they like to carry a .38 in the pants pocket.

Same same. Who really cares anyway? I've never really heard any Thai person refer to someone as Dutch but always heard something like "he is Neatherlands". Wrong, but what are you gonna do...

Thais are known for their small size. I carry a 7 inch.
