PhilippBKK Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 The devaluation of the pound will hopefully lead to a brisk Thai Brexit of old geezers and the likes. There might be some BASE jumping involved and expat homeless population at Pattaya beach will see a sharp rise, however long term the exodus is unavoidable. Good for the ones who found their (retirement) paradise here in the 80s/90s, but it's over now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealbash Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 The headline implies all Brits are thieves. Anyone want to sue for deformation? I in no way condone the mans actions, and I hope he has been shamed, it appears so.Deformation? Be sure to add British dentists to the law suit.

My character judgement of her said all along that she was truthful about the 2,000. Those who disputed that (some vehemently) on here need to eat a little humble pie. I hope the thief will learn from his error in judgement. And that those who said nasty things about her realize that there really are many good Thais like her. All is well that ends well. You hope you hope he learns from his experience......I think you are dreaming. The only way this will change him is to make sure there are no cameras in the future. A thief is a thief, is a thief. Personally I would have told the woman she had dropped the money. Why? Because it is the right thing to do. And I am a Brit/American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng50 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Bugger, i was waiting for a group of thai taxi drivers to get together and put their money together to give 2000bht to the girl, to show how good, caring and honest they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myran Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Very decent of her. He, on the other hand, is just a filthy thief. He didn't return the money because he felt bad, he returned it because he was afraid of getting mixed up with the police and actually having to pay for his crime.

I hope it does not stop there, It was theft and if the police have evidence then they should pursue it even if the victims withdraw their complaints. I expect the boys down Soi 9 will be getting a call from Bangkok if they have not already, I am sure the manager at the supermarket would have done his best to get a name and where he was staying as no doubt he will have to file a report to his head office on this.

That is because so many brits can´t behave at the same level as other expats and tourists. They are in a leading position in all areas such as traffic accidents, criminal activities and fighting as well as getting killed and committing suicide. Please, just bring up some facts that can contest my comment. On the other hand there are good Brits, and you might be one of them. Just continue to be proud and hold your head high. Plus with the dying Brexit pound they are the most needy of the expats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case, his action was both misguided and wrong, hence a mistake. Or, do you doubt the dictionary definition ? It was also a crime, hence his desire not to have the police involved. I suggest that you should look at the context of the incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she caught a tea-leaf and she's no slouch then she and the adjoining shop keepers had an alert system. When and if caught they had to pay 10 times the price or the cops would be called. They always paid up. Said Italians were by far the worse. Your wife was an extortionist, then, if what you say is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only have the lady,s word to go on, he may have spoken English but could be from a multitude of different countries, the police were not involved so no sighting of his passport or drivers licence, I mean he could easily come from the USA, NZ, SA, AUS or God forbid even the Isle of Wight......................

You do not have to read this one if it bothers you so much and whether any news report is "newsworthy" or not is purely subjective. Perhaps it's you who needs to get a grip or move on?
