BobBKK Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Go see the JPM and get an audience with the committee and explain to them and get the guard fired. Also if the agent has a boss make an appointment and see them too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a nothing incident like that it would have ended in wais and smiles. The implication in your post is clearly that Thais would have made a big deal out of it whilst farang don't. Erm, you do realise the OP was asking what action he could take and even made a report to his embassy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No meals with ladies of any age. My HoD or the accuser got Immigration Police involved. I went there in a huff. Soon after, the Police said that I was innocent. - Malice? Halucinating or schidzophrenic victim? Hell knows. But such a silly "mistake" can end one's career for good. Such mistakes HAVE ended many a career and, in some cases, ended in either divorce, a law suit, prison time or a combination thereof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusion58 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Consider yourself fortunate that even one Thai involved in the incident was willing to concede he was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikisteel Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Sounds like a beautiful lesson to learn. This whole scenario should teach you about the BS button. Sounds fuuucked now but give it time you will laugh about it but most of all, you will learn from it. Sounds like the most believable story to people who have experienced this type of fucccckked situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwpage3 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Welcome to Thailand, by your own choice. I would never think for a second that the people that live there want you there. Something to always keep in the back of your mind. Pretty sure Thai people in the city have their own opinions about why older Americans move to Thailand and it probably puts you on the bottom rung of their perceived society.

I called the American Embassy in Bangkok. They said I can email a report to them. But maybe it will just be a waste of time. You should call a Thai lawyer and sue the manager for defamation. There's lots of money to be made from this. Thais courts award $$$$$s for the most trivial of defamation cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speak with the cleaners and gardeners, it pays off. Good luck I used to kiss security and gardener’s hands whenever I met them. And I was treated like a king. It definitely pays off to show some self-humiliation to the low ranking Thais. Edited July 21, 2019 by Zikomat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
