Thailand is a place where some races are looked down on.
Even with tons of Indians living in Thailand, many are probably not aware what most Thai’s think of them.
Same with African Americans.
That is just the way Thai people are and have been for 100 years.
If you are coming to Thailand, better do your research before you think your money will make people love you. Some nationalities it will never matter.
A 45-year-old Indian tourist was left shocked and penniless late Saturday night after a woman he invited back to his hotel room allegedly made off with his cash.
Clearly he didn’t have a clue his nationality is not well liked here.
A man identified only as Sudip filed a theft report at Muang Pattaya police station early Sunday morning following the incident that occurred at a hotel in Pattaya city in tambon Nong Prue, Bang Lamung district.
According to Mr. Sudip’s statement, he had met a Thai woman while strolling along the beach late Saturday night. After reaching an agreement, he invited her back to his hotel room. However, before any intimate activity took place, he stepped into the bathroom — only to emerge moments later to discover that the woman had vanished, along with his cash.
The stolen items included 5,000 baht in Thai currency and 30,000 Indian rupees (about 11.000 baht).
Police investigators have collected the hotel’s CCTV footage, which captured clear images of the woman, as evidence and are working to identify and apprehend the suspect.
Tourists come to Thailand thinking money will buy them their desires not realizing some nationalities are not even liked here.
When you don’t understand this, you get ripped off.
It is just the way it is here.
