    I love Thailand but this type of bad publicity does the country no good.Justice must be seen to be done for all Thai people not just the rich few.

    The police actually doing something....fat chance of that happening.

    If the nightclub is open until early morning then we know who gets some extra "salary" to look the other way…

    Nothing unusual about the police response............ unless negative publicity happens they just sit on their butts thinking about how they can make extra money for themselves.
