Terrible. Its happening more and more in Bangkok now. Sad thing is that the police are behind it.
I talked to the tourism minister about it but I don’t think they do anything about it. They all work as seperate department and not as a whole. Tomorrow I will talk to TAT about it. Several of my customers have been robbed near our office on Silom Road.

Thnaks for reading,
I think the level of opportunistic street crime is rising everywhere due to the effects of the global economy. The information my translator has received is that this was a yabba addict and as you will know doubt know, a tough economy and drugs such as yabba bring the worst out in people.
I hope your meeting goes well and will be interested in any feedback.
Best
John
