Thai court acquits nightclub owner after deadly inferno.:(
A Thai fire official takes a picture of the bodies of victims outside Santika nightclub in Bangkok January 1, 2009 by AFP - Tuesday, Oct 22, 2013. BANGKOK - The owner of a Bangkok nightclub destroyed by a fire that killed 67 people on New Year's Day in 2009 was acquitted of gross negligence Tuesday on appeal. Visuk Setsawat, whose Santika Club was set ablaze by pyrotechnics during a performance by rock band Burn, was sentenced to three years in prison in September 2011 but was cleared by the Appeal Court in the Thai capital. "The decision has changed to an acquittal of the first defendant (Visuk) on every charge," the court said in a statement posted on its website. Boonchu Laosrinak, owner of Focus Light Sound System Company, the company that installed the pyrotechnics, was also sentenced to three years in jail in September 2011. His appeal was rejected by the court. More than a hundred people were wounded, including 32 who suffered critical or life-changing injuries, according to the prosecutor at the original trial. Hundreds of partygoers were inside the upmarket nightclub when it caught fire. Three Singaporeans, one Japanese and a Myanmar national were among the dead, while scores of foreigners including some from Australia, France and Britain were injured. http://www.bangkokpost.com/news/loca...tted-on-appeal http://www.nationmultimedia.com/nati...-30217753.html |

Not sure if you guys know about this.
The Thai government is considering charging foreign tourists a 500-baht (US$16) entry fee starting in January 2014 Officials from the Ministry of Tourism and Sports, the Ministry of Public Health, and the Royal Thai Police had discussed the plan and all agreed with the idea. They believe the extra charge would lead to an increase in the quality of tourists to Thailand. The plan is also intended to keep foreigners from staying in the country after their visas have expired. There are some 100,000 foreigners in Thailand whose visas have expired but they refuse to leave the country, say reports. While the government claims the entry fee will keep out low-quality tourists, the feedback from the tourism sector appears to be all negative.

Re: Bangkok Field Report
I'm just wondering how the hell would a 500 baht entry fee deter foreigners from overstaying in the country? Makes no sense at all.

In 2012, there are about 22 mil ppl visiting Thailand. 22 mil multiply by 500THB. This is not a small figure. As long as the lady monkey still there, the country will not improve and will get into deeper shit. |
