Kiwi Brothers Slapped With 5 Charges For Assaulting Policeman
Hellfire replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
I am still waiting for anybody of those “whole-picturers” to present a plausible version which could justify the Kiwis’ behavior even in the slightest. -
What people should really be focused on is what kind of blow back this rash of shocking incidents this might elicit from immigration. The over-tourism and massive wave of foreigners granted tourist visas (especially in Phuket) appears to have reached some type of tipping point where certain people think they can do whatever they want in the Kingdom (incivility, disobeying police officers, ignoring work laws, ignoring visa terms and conditions, engaging in criminal activities, assaulting and verbally abusing Thais), I think they're going to be in for a rude awakening if we don't collectively clean up our act. Heightened background checks, increased visa fees, increased visa requirements, retightening of TM-30 requirements could make the visa application and renewal process far more arduous than it currently is. And that's not even taking into consideration the increased likelihood of use of lethal force by police officers, and an erosion of general goodwill towards visitors are all possibilities. Again, people like this need to clean up their act. Make no mistake, they are doing a great deal of harm, and potential repercussions could well be lurking right around the corner.

Russian tourist on Pha-ngan Island accused of kicking Thai pregnant woman
jvs replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
You are right,so far no video so no one knows what happened. So don't say "what really happened" You do not know. -
They are the sons of multi-millionaires and I have no doubts they are doing exactly what they have been told is in their best interest to do right now by the highest paid legal help money can buy. Your generalization of Thais has nothing to do with this topic either way. Humans in general will lie and refuse to take responsibility when being accused of a crime.

Session

I have read on this forum about some guys who just put the 800K in 2 months before, got the retirement extension and then used all the 800K. The following year they just reapply for a new extension, thereby, not having to keep money in the bank for the additional 10 months when they obtained the extension. What is wrong with that method? I suppose a bit of messing about.

Israel is at War - General discussion (pt3)
Wobblybob replied to Social Media's topic in The War in Israel
I am not justifying anything, it is you that comes up with excuses for the terrorists attacks, for without 7/10 none of this would be happening. And your history lessons are worse than tiring and used by yourself and others to deflect the real reason that Israel has taken to make sure that the barbaric attacks never happen again. "The world will not tolerate such a situation" please spare us your imaginary dramatics. -

Millions Allocated to Combat Forest Fires in the North
rudi49jr replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
If I were the Thai government, I’d start investing in education, trying to change the mindset of the vast majority of people. Because right now, there’s too much ignorance, too much indifference and (way) too much selfishness. Most people just don’t give a damn. But I don’t see that happening any time soon. Educating the people is dangerous as far as the elite is concerned, and as long as they call the shots, nothing much is going to change. -
