Let us wait and see who is the boss. The Swiss knows well that these people will just gather and make noise for few days. Eventually everyone will move to look after their own daily life.

Looks like Swiss are having some mental problems. It seems that they cannot live with communities. They should be kept isolation like "pit bulls". Another Swiss attacked an elderly woman in Trang for no reason. These Swiss are totally lacking tolerance.

I see they've pulled his visa, deeming him a "threat to social peace".

Phuket's immigration police has detained him and he can seek a temporary release to defend himself, on this charge, but they've got an earlier one, as well, about obstructing an ambulance.

Bye, bye, "David".

The shakedown starts. If a Thai did similar it would be a wai and a 500 baht fine. However, with the rich farang I suspect it will be throw the book until some money is exchanged.
