What a bunch of bullshit, to allow this to go on at such a beautiful and new airport.....why don't they ever get a clue....bitching about the loss of tourism revenues, while they let the jewelry, grand palace, tuk-tuk scams continue?....always two steps forward, then two steps back...

It's typical Thailand. I've lived in Bangkok for 10 years and can tell you Thais are clueless about how to keep tourists coming and how to protect their reputation.

I tell everyone that asks now, don't come to Thailand. There's better places - Malaysia for instance. Great respect for tourists and easy visas too (90 days at airport in KL, not the 30 day Thai bullshit).

Dont go in any KING POWER DUTY FREE shops at bangkok airport. You could end up being accused of theft/shoplifting and arrested and miss your flight home unless you pay a big fat bribe to the airport security and police.
Dont expect your embassy to help you, they always side with the thais.
It is another Thai scam against tourists.

Still one of the top destinations and consistently voted Asia's best Destination, most dolts like yourself get scammed, thinking your getting everything for nothing, Like US investors with Bernard Maddoff, largest scam ever.

There is a video on the KING POWER DUTY FREE website that tries to justify the arrest and abuse of innocent passengers who are browsing in their shops.

AVOID THE SHOPS AT BKK BANGKOK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.

Make you have a good laugh with their sense of humour! That will change you since I think you need a good laugh your so miserable. Love the way you always try and trash , ladyboys, women or gays, you must have a sexual issue you can't handle. Hard up and angry! Learn to accept people for what they are and learn from them...you might find your next life in that position because you refuse to learn.

Why do the thais have to be so greedy?
They even charge people 500 baht a day for overstaying. The Thais treat tourists and visitors like ATM machines.

And western countries penalty for overstay is , arrest, deportation, and don't come back, would rather pay a nominal fee then go through that! What countries in the world you can break their laws, an overstay in the UK is Jail. A seasoned traveler doesn't let themselves be treated like an ATM machine anywhere. Maybe your too dense and gullible.

Insult every one ??? That's the domain of all the American rejects do on these threads, one line ignorant comments. Fallow your own advice. You people are so easy to blast away and ridicule since everything posted is pure derogatory steam with no basis to back it up. If organized thoughts and facts from resources within your own government or media is bashing, then I guess it explains your lack of intelligence, you have a big gash on your head from the bashing.

Daily Horoscope for December 11

Pisces

The last thing you want to do is to picking over every little thing. Instead, you have one eye permanently on the clock and you're trying to cram as many activities into the day as possible. This will be good fun and you'll enjoy keeping up the momentum, but beware of a possible tendency to become reckless or to try to cut corners in order to save time, because this will be self-defeating in the long run.
