johng Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 @HerbalEd Are you suggesting that lottery vendors,beach chair/umbrella vendors,beach massage operations,food sellers peddling their wares,motorbike rental businesses,speedboat,jetski,banana boat businesses etc are thieves, robbers, pickpockets, and corrupt ? I fully support thieves, robbers, pickpockets and corrupt officials being arrested and convicted , there is however one large group who are totally immune to prosecution and wield power in a very Mafia like way..... what to do about them ?

Do not be so sure. The army have been redefining the boundaries for bars and other businesses on the main roads of Samui recently , just hope they turn on the beachfront properties next.

They recently got 'stuck in' to the Suthep family for their slight mistake as to where the boundary of their Koh Samui property really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
