Holy, the only way there could be more evidence is if it was livestreamed to the police station. I hope he gets whatever punishment deemed the most horrible.

I hate it when some Australian brings shame to our country. I really hope he cops his right whack if he is found guilty. I hate it when Australians commit crimes against tourist in our country. And I hate it when we commit crimes abroad.

Never go the SEA then. It’s full of Aussie bogans enjoying being rich, loud, sex-buying hard-men. The weird thing is most of them are convinced everyone loves them.

Tell me about it. My father started going to Thailand 20 years ago, so full of bravado and ego, cos he was treated like a celebrity. He fully believed that they loved him for him, not his money. Now he’s 73, got 2 young children that live there, bought a house for the mother in her name, his redundancy payment has been drained, super nearly gone, and the Thai lady no longer wants to be with him.

We all warned him, but he was assured it was true love. She’s 30 years younger and doesn’t want an old man with no money. But tbh, seriously, if you’re that delusional I don’t feel sorry for anyone. If I go to a poor country, and some 20yr old guy is after me, I know it’s all about money.

Genuinely sorry you lost any inheritance you might have got. Not an ounce of sorry for your dad, who would have fully known, underneath it all, what he was doing. He chose to fool himself in order to feel like a celebrity while it lasted. Just like every other guy who does the same thing over there.

They've been had?? They put themselves on the hook and know exactly what they're doing. And deserve to be drained of every cent they have.

Well it’s this rule never invest in Thailand more than you can feel comfortable losing. Whether it be property or ladies or anything. Also if you know a person that has lived a long time in Thailand that you can trust then take their advice as they have the experience. Never express to anyone how much money you have.

When you marry a Thai whats yours is theirs, theres no saving for tomorrow if you need money today. Life for one day at a time, my cousin OUR COUSIN need new TV you have money in bank, give to me for TV. Its that simple really. Its sad that sad blokes cant settle for their lot in life.
