Hallucinations from weed? Well at least he didnt murder his parents for weed money.

In a way I dont blame the locals. I just spent a few days in a public ward in a government hospital in the poorest province in Thailand and the locals could not have been more warm hearted. All the staff were the same, just absolutely wonderful. Why? We dont see many farang around here. I read about the yahoo's in Phuket making it bad for all of us, locals, tourists, expats. Reminds me of the only time I have been to Bali, couldnt believe the mayhem, bogans screaming and shouting in the streets a;ll night, drunk, high on shrooms I dont know. Makes you embarrassed to be a tourist/westerner. Got out the next day straight to the tranquility of a tiny island off Lombok. Imagine its caught up to Kuta by now.
But then the ones who are doing the complaining live and work there because they benefit from the same yahoos either directly or indirectly. Its a sign of the times, as everybody wants tourist dollars but unfortunately it all comes at a cost. I kinda think of tourism and immigration in the same way, the problem is too many too soon which overwhelms the system, the economy, the environment and the local culture.

Possible diversion tactic. When I see political outrage like this in the news, in any country not just Thailand. I look for what appear to be minor news items which are 'overlooked' in the feeding frenzy. These 'minor' items often have greater impact or are more outrageous but are deliberately played down.
Taksin and the economy!

How the mighty fall,
No problem, Im sure there is still plenty of the black stuff still under the mattress or stashed offshore.
You break the laws of the country, get jailed rightly for it (but too short), your business suffers because of your guilt and you want sympathy? Why not GoFundMe?

These predators, dressed up as Yoga gurus...are plentiful in SE Asia. Bali is big on them as is Indonesia....but what they really practice is free sex with their pupils....

I gave up for a while and the first thing I noticed was how relaxed my parents were suddenly knowing I wouldnt be coming to murder them every week for weed money. Sex is almost boring, the local Pizza Galor and Munchies-R-Us suddenly went broke, my Friday nights became drunken beatings on the wife instead of relaxing in the back yard over a banana milkshake and a lentil salad while listening to Cat Stevens. I only lasted 4 hours before rescuing my pipe from the garbo's.
Now I think its making me paranoid. I keep worrying hour long we are going to have to bear the fabricated unfounded nonsense that some polital parties spout in the form of propaganda to suit their own agenda. We did all this in the 60's with Reefer Madness and learnt it was nothing but blatant bulldust. We should also have learned from that history (again) not to listen to the garbage but rather use our own judgement and experience to guide us. Now "Mum, Dad, where did I put the axe?"

I live in Phuket and see these out of control Big Bikers every day. Completely surprised that I don't see at least one bad accident a day. My fear is one of these idiots will take out an innocent Thai family on a small bike. I wish they would at least crack down on the Big Bikes. It's a real problem.
Exactly, and not just the big bikes. Seems to me the cops have been caught shining the arse of their pants in overtime and the bubble has burst. Every day the news is full of farang doing this, farang caught doing that. And all these farang suddenly caught just in the last few weeks. Did something happen to turn them all bad suddenly or were they known about before but their activities ignored until theres a crackdown. Seems to me now that a cracdown is not closer scrutiny in certain areas or activities but rather its a kick in a cops pants to get him to do his job.

Suspect they are just mass dialing all numbers by computer - which is why most never connect to actual scammer (busy with someone else). But likely have a record of answered call so have you number for next time.
Correct. I had a girlfriend years ago who did telemarketing however before mobiles and computers. . She reckoned sometimes they went through the white pages from front to back and sometimes they went through the numbers numerically. Anybody who was a buyer went on a list and were the first to get hit next time. The lists were also sold on the open market to other telemarketers etc.

Others may explain it much more academic wise ....and I hope they do
But let me explain in all my glory as a academic or amateur academic may I say.
I find Filipina "persons" are more caring in regards to cooking ,cleaning ,working hard ,etc the ones who if course indentify as a "she".
Does anyone else think that of Filipina ladies ?
I have worked alonside hundreds of Filipina girls over the years as a teacher and could honestly say they are no different to any other asian girls: you get good ones and bad ones. However in the bedroom one must remember Filipinas are mostly catholic and as such sex is dirty so far far more enjoyable.

Maybe he can pick up the other Big Joke named Boss while in Europe.
It amazes me the two parallel but conflicting threads about Thai police incomes. On one side you have the very low salaries, momma noodles and near bankruptsies reported among Thai police on one side and then there is the contradictory thread where the other half have unusual wealth, businesses, mansion and family in the UK sipping tea plus fleets of luxury vehicles which is all "above board"??

I had a call from the same number a few days ago. It didnt ring long just like they knew it wouldnt be answered. Coincidentally there was a funny number call just before it, from Nonthaburi, which usually means DTAC or Lazada call centre nuisance calls which I always ignore. I did a google search for the number and it showed +697 and +698 to be voice calls over internet as n00dle said above. The way the 2 calls were so close and the second so short, gave me a strong feeling they were related.

Dead right, kick her out. Kicking a woman, a pregnant woman, and over having to remove her shoes!!?? And its not like removing your shoes indoors is an unusual practice in this country. This 'entitled' beach needs knocking down a peg while Phuket needs to be given back to the Thais.

Yep I was in a bank in Kranuan a couple of years ago opening an account with a pommy friend. For some reason, without checking, the woman said to my mate "youre american, sorry cant help you, your government makes it too hard". I was going to ask "why are they bombing here too?" but she suddenly saw his passport and realised he was English and sorted an account for him too.

I knew a guy who had a restaurant in Bangkok in an area busy with farang expats and teachers. He charged Thais more, double I think, saying it was a club and members get a discount. Somehow Thais somehow never got accepted as members.
