webfact Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 We'll find you wherever you are! Immigration police catch illegal overstayer hiding on ledge An unusually lighthearted post on the immigration website showed Region 2 immigration police take down a black man wanted for illegal entry and overstay in Thailand. The post began in the manner of the lyrics of a song and ended with the punchline: "You thought you'd get away but we'll find you wherever you are". Six arrests were made in total at a business premises in Samrong Neua, Samut Prakan south east of Bangkok.

As I understand it, falang refers to caucasians. For example Japanese or Taiwanese are not falang. Maybe we're trying to project Western Liberal values on to Thais?

When green and blue light are combined, they make cyan. Red and green light make yellow. And when all three primary colors of light are combined, we see white light. with paint, white paint reflects all colors while black paint absorbs all colors.

ReMarKable Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I'm stunned BJ is so efficient. Over stayers must shaking in fear. He can also change his mind quickly about an 18 year old youth escaping Saudi Arabia (In Thailand youths can be as old as 30, not sure why the news uncharacteristically called her a woman) after international press asked questions and lying didn't work.

Why is their mentioning his color relevant? Oh wait I know... because RAYCISS! RAYCISS! RAYCISS!!! REEEE!!! REEEE!!!!!!! He's black. That's a general description as given by the police. And the fact that he's on overstay is his crime not being black as you are insinuating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
