Even to fine her 500 Baht for feeding the fish would be injustice, considering the thousands and thousands of tons of garbage deposited in the sea by Thai people. She did not do any harm to anybody. Whenever any of us is buying a fish on the market, he is doing more harm to sea life. Not ? Good grief... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say " it's not unlikely she planned to spend two nights in a thai jail as part of her vacation", that was you. Your opinion of my comments is of no consequence, thanks, anyway. It seems that some posters don't approve of accuracy and, in that connection, you may want to look up "asinine". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modafinil Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I am terrified. Bail should not have been allowed. Just imagine - at any moment, she might decide to go on another "fish feeding rampage". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serving a friend of you a cup of koffie (in your own bar) gets you deported, no work permit. What idiot rule will they enforce next.

Given the abuses the rivers and lakes in this country receive from pollutants and garbage, I really don't get it. Is this some insane move from the Government to ensure all tourists go to the surrounding countries? How is tourism going to rise with such lunacy everywhere, everyday? Poor woman must be absolutely shellshocked. My fishing experience has been they usually get my bait right off the hook and I don't catch any fish. I guess I have been guilty of feeding the fish?

But you clearly must be looking at something other than the first post in this topic. If you had clicked on the link in the OP of this thread, and especially the other thread about that, you would have seen the exact law and reason why she was arrested. But I guess it is easier to moan here about missing information.sent using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact he paid admits guilt in my book. Life and one day would work for me. Let me know when the trial starts. Ongoing case, thats funny. I haven't and won't forget.

I haven't and won't forget. There are charges outstanding against him that he acknowledged through his lawyer, he was arrested. Paying compensation to the family of a victim is a perfectly normal legal procedure in most societies worldwide, it is not peculiar to Thai society, but it doesn't make the death of the victim "legal" as you (I hope sarcastically) suggest. You'll have to keep an eye on the media yourself, I'm not here to alert you to what's happening in the world. If you think that the case/investigation is not ongoing then you really are either out of touch or you are obtusely ignoring an announcement made by senior police officers not so long ago.

Or, as announced early today, sacked, arrested and being investigated. They weren't selling "nartocis", though, so perhaps nartocis trafficking is not so serious?
