Swiss national opts for jail after assaulting Thai woman in mall
wealthychef replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Something tell me this is not just a moment, but part of a pattern. You don't do this kind of thing just once in a while. As long as there is clear evidence, then let's just throw him off a fishing boat in deep water, and let the sharks have him. -
Swiss national opts for jail after assaulting Thai woman in mall
wealthychef replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I think it's because it's cheap and easy to live here, and people of the type you mention (some are female btw) are unable to hold a job or get up in the morning or interact with their own cultures so they take refuge here. -
Foreign man caught on CCTV stealing Thai flag in Phuket
wealthychef replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
The seriousness to which this will be taken will be inversely proportional to the net worth of the foreigner. -
The only reason this is getting attention is that the Thai victims were themselves upper class educated Thais. If they had been poor they also would have been ignored. It's not about race, it's about class. It's always about rich vs. poor, because the rich generally have little to no sympathy for poor people. https://www.psychologicalscience.org/news/rich-less-empathetic-than-poor-study-says.html

Good for you Thai people! Speak up. The police will not help you, you aren't rich enough to matter, so maybe it's time to stand up for your rights. Everywhere this guy goes he should be scorned and mocked until he learns his lesson and goes back to his own country in my opinion. What a scumbag.

And this is why they don't allow batteries in your checked bag. Imagine if this happened in the luggage compartment! Some airline rules are lifesavers. "Turn off your cell phones" and "take off your shoes" are both notable exceptions. -

Swiss Man Admits Killing Missing Thai Wife: Police
wealthychef replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
He was probably a useless POS too lazy to fund such ventures. Obviously he relied on her wealth and good graces. Rot in hell I say to that guy. Assuming the reporting is correct of course. -

Maybe he couldn't figure out how to get the money out of Thailand? -
Funny how hard that was to figure out at the time. I seem to remember this argument being made loud and clear in real time. Not sure why it took this long for them to rule that a fact is a fact. Or maybe I am sure...

Mysterious mass death at Chiang Mai Night Safari shocks Thailand

"moving the goalpost..." the point was not to mistreat them, the question is more generally, whether raising animals in captivity is moral, yes or no. If you think not, then we should release all dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, etc into the wild. If you are ok with captured birds in peoples' homes, then you should be ok with tigers, assuming they are treated well. I think either are valid viewpoints, but usually people do not think this through very well or argue this point.
