All kinds of foreign lawbreakers are found in Thailand – child molesters, rapists, drug traffickers, murderers, money launderers, and cyber criminals to name a few.

Plenty of the home grown variety here already, some have even just changed their name and gone into politics.

Vague memory of the challenge to his eligiblity to hold a political position resulted in the Thai court declaring that the criminal act was in a foreign country therefore irrelevant to Thai law.

May be wrong, getting on in years. (maybe dementia setting in)

Wife keeps telling me I keep forgetting to buy her that 5 baht gold chain.

Yes but only with my mask 1/2 on.

They never left. Easy tourist visas and the cover of the tourist hoards will akways make Thailand a haven/hideout for criminals

Vancouver has always been like that

 

But NYC is shocking how much it smells like weed all over the city, virtually overnight when the law changed

[Janneman]

Finally! The wealthy farang tourists are coming again. Just like TAT was hoping...

Clearly, since Mr Dumpster chose Thailand. Sadly he was extradited, he should've spent the rest of his miserable life in a Thai prison hole.

Yeah, Hollywood where the stars are in the sidewalk is like one big green bud floating in the air. Maybe CM will get like that if these idiots in control get kicked out. Fir me it is quite pleasant. Now cigarettes on the other hand are generally a nope for the smell.

Hate cigarette smoke and also think they are the most selfish/inconsiderate people in the world

 

But thankfully not many cig smokers in Vancouver

Then contrast that with NYC, soooo many people smoke, I am constantly having to try and dodge the smoke walking down the street

Not sure why they need to focus on foreign criminals. There are enough corrupt officials to go round that they could keep the courts busy 24/7

[Fanta]

The cops are scared of the competition.

Assuming foreigners are criminals....A Con decending statement

[Rebel]

It must be a misspelling. They must mean farang turists

I don't mind cigarettes when I am drinking, but any other time is a big no.

Just wait till they open casinos, they will look back at 2022 with fondness.
