News Forum - Three foreign tourists rescued from Thai jungle
I totally agree. However, the Location History option on your Google account which links to Google maps is fantastic. Many people don’t enable this GPS feature which is very helpful in such circumstances. This is easier to do with an Android based phone and a bit trickier to set up and use in a iPhone. Android https://support.google.com/maps/answer/6258979?hl=en-GB&co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid For iphone https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/4388034?hl=en#zippy= With iPhones and iPads (IOS devices) there is a built in system called Significant Locations. The default for this is OFF and needs to be turned on.

News Forum - Pattaya police chief transferred for fining vape carrying Chinese tourists
Yes, that’s Thailand for you. The clever part is that most tourists have no idea. They think it’s all Land of Smiles. Exotic food. Beautiful women. Sun kissed beaches and a party every night. Which of course is all true. But there is a significant darker side to Thailand that remains well below the radar, until it’s too late. What you describe should happen is of course totally correct. The fact it doesn’t, shows just how serious successive governments see police corruption. It’s the same with motoring offences. Just look at the pathetic excuse for the recent penalty points system introduced. It’s all window dressing and facade building to fool international pressure groups and foreign governments. The problem is, it also fools the majority of nearly 40million tourists every year. -

News Forum - Hampshire family launches urgent appeal to bring father home after Thailand bike crash
Another tragic death involving a bike. I always carry a copy of my passport and an emergency contact number for people in Thailand who know me and a family member back in the U.K. it’s helpful if stopped by police or in an accident. Ultimately it’s kind to your family should the worst happen and you end up like this poor soul. I also ensure I have insurance and a copy of the policy details are left with a family member back home. All seems obvious to me, but I guess some people just don’t give a fu*k
