Most recently Bangkok Police deported John Mark Carr as a suspect in the unsolved murder of a little girl in Boulder, Colorado. He was innocent of that crime, however the world scrutiny forced Thai immigration officials to examine their VOA or Visa on Arrival policy, since the accused non-murderer had been upping his visa with monthly border runs during his sojourn in the Land of Smiles. VOA tourists are now curtailed to only a 30 entry with two 30 day extensions, proving one one bad apple can spoil it for the rest of the bad apples.
Here is my list of the ten worst tourists to Thailand.
1.) Sex tourists on viagra beer and little sleep
2.) Missionaries seeking souls
3.) Know-it-alls with all the answers and none of the questions
4.) Israelis two weeks out of the army and high on hash
5.) Trendy people blitzed on blase
6.) Italians waving their hands in the air to communicate
7.) American group tours waddling through temples
8.) Feminists looking for a fight with innocent men
9.) Biker gangs on Ketamine and steroids
10.) Backpackers traveling the lonely planet path
It’s up to you, but I avoid them like the plague.
Feh.
