libya 115 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 (edited) Indian Men Drugged and Robbed in Hotel The Pattaya police were informed on 20th January at 3.30 am that three Indian men were drugged and robbed in Champ Hotel located on Pratamnak Road and the victims were in a serious condition. The police and Sawang Boriboon arrived and found in room 603 that Mr. Kailash Agrawal, aged 42, was lying on the bed in a very bad condition – it looked like he was poisoned. Mr. Narendra Kumar, aged 40 and Mr. Ravi Patt Bhatt, aged 40 were unconscious in room 605. The team quickly aided the men and sent them to the hospital for treatment. A friend of the victims told the police that earlier his friends brought two women back to the hotel and when he came to check on them, he found them in this condition. At the moment the stolen items and money taken are unknown since the victims cannot give any statements but further investigation and questioning will be made after they recover.

SOURCE: Pattaya People The topic heading says "Chump Hotel" and I thought it was aptly named. But, whatever, the 3 guys started off feeling like champs and ended up as chumps. Maybe they have wives and maybe not. Just hope that they and all you guys who play around are decent enough to tell wives/girlfriends about the exra-curricular activities so that wives/GFs can have checkups for STDs and decide whether to stay with you.

Pattaya_Fox Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 There was a spate of drug induced crimes committed during the 1990`s and many foreigners were mysteriously found dead in their apartments/rooms. Many of these crimes were committed by `Freelance ladies`(ladies not affiliated to bars etc) who were shipped in to Pattaya from other areas and many worked in pairs or more. Let us hope that the Police can nail these current perpetrators before they end up killing somebody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please help me out here. I was under the impression that FARANG = FOREIGNER, and that Pakistan, India and Arab countries were not part of Thailand. Farang comes from the word "Farangset" (France) who governed much of S/E Asia (French Indochina) from 1887 to 1954. Thais use this term to descibe anyone of Caucasian appearance, i.e White Europeans, English, Australians, Americans etc. Indians are called "Kaak". Arabs "Kaakkoaw", Black Africans "nico".

glenbat Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 As an 'average' farang I naturally assumed farang were caucasian foreigners in Thailand also Not too sure what indians/arabs were referred to as but I got the impression some (most) BG's werent overly keen on them?

Would a black European make that definition? Is it precise? Well, Thailand is one of the racist country, where racism is promoted openly. Farang = White Guy Khak = Indian Race (literal meaning guest, however, used impolitely for Indian race) Khak Khao = White Indian (mainly Arabs, or Muslims) Khun Cheen or Jeek = Chinese If you are black and from US/Europe, they will treat you as one of the above.

Khleerm Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 What's your take on what the average Farang considers Farangs to be?.... Is it precise? Are there rules of language usage? Is language use concrete, or in flux? Are languages alive just as the peoples are who express themselves via said language? Quote: "The term [farang] in Thai is also used productively in compounds to denote "western" things, eg., "man farang" is "potato"." Another very informative page on the "Thai" origin of Farang is well worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
