reader Posted November 27 Posted November 27 Can understand why someone may wish to own gold but cannot understand why they would display it while traveling. From Bangkok Post PATTAYA: A Swedish tourist told police that a thief stole about 42,000 baht worth of valuables from him early Wednesday morning. Lars Reikwike, 65, told police in front of Pattaya City 8 School at about 3.30am on Wednesday that a man approached him there and stole his gold ring worth about 40,000 baht and 2,000 baht in cash. A 50-year-old taxi motorcyclist who identified himself as Winai said the Swedish man, who appeared intoxicated, was on a roadside waiting for a taxi when the suspect, who he said appeared to be transsexual, approached the foreigner. Mr Winai said he rushed to separate them in a bid to prevent a crime. Later, he said, he learned about the theft but the suspect had left the scene before police arrived. The motorcyclist said the suspect had frequented the area. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2909650/swedish-tourist-loses-b42-000-to-pattaya-thief Ruthrieston 1 Quote

At least he was smart enough to carry just 2000 not 20000 or 200000 on him Quote
