So he gave her the card to buy gold then sell it back for cash which she gave to him? Why would one use a proxy for that? An expensive way to cash advance your credit card that's for sure. I'm calling her story rubbish. And how come she gets a pseudonym but the poor old Chinese guy with the ridiculous name doesn't?
Banning the party that got the most votes at the last election. Someone thinks that is a smart idea? The arrogance of the elite is staggering. And frightening.
Some bizarre replies here. The reference to the Thai woman who hit the Swiss guy is just nuts. Like this is ok because of that? Or if justice isn't done there then it shouldn't be done here either? Unless it was self defence his bashing of the woman is reprehensible, anyone defending it needs to have a good look at themselves, as does this poor excuse for a man.
I have lost track of the number of people I have warned about not riding a motorbike in Thailand. It should go without saying that if you don't hold a valid license to ride the same sized bike in your home country then you will not be insured. Every travel insurance policy I have seen explicitly says this. Same as no coverage for alcohol related incidents.
Bloody lucky the missus was wearing a helmet. I have very sympathy for the young family involved but now a hopefully generous public are being called upon to fund what was irresponsible behaviour.
You need much more information before casting judgement. Of course there is alcohol. Did a railing fail? Falling off a balcony isn't that easy so what are the specific circumstances? Insurance companies will generally ocover a legitimate accident but not something effectively self inflicted. His family must be shattered.
