It seems to be usual for these faranges to steal from their own countrymen......not so strange if you think about it.
I need to avoid Brits esp Welshmen.

Great to see that one racist’s calling others a racist.
Time to understand that there’s only ONE world, can’t understand people like you making others bad…….

There’s good and bad people in all nationalities. FULL STOP

True story it's not where one came from, it's not where one is at, it's where we are coming from inside, that matters, we are all in this neighborhood together, one random act of kindness at a time can do wonders for our inner-wealth and others.

Just 1 question; what were the Belgian nationals doing to make them susceptible to extortion demands by a supposed Belgian consular official?

i suppose they are deporting him as the case would be easier and cheaper to try in Belgium where I assume that most of the witnesses live.

Here we go again: Thai good, Farang bad.
To my knowledge (maybe I am wrong) 99 % of bar girls and lady boys in Pattaya are Thai. Or maybe I am wrong and the majority of those 30,000 bar girls are from Belgium.
If all Farangs were to leave Pattaya I assure you that the town would collapse because the city needs the Farangs. Without Farangs there would be no taxis, restaurants, bars, massage parlors or so many BIB with hands outstretch to get Tea Money for assorted looking-the-other-way instances.
I think that it's time for you to go down Walking Street and wake up to reality and not be xenophobic. Without tourists or ex-pats Thailand, not only Pattaya, would have to downsize services to the tune of 6 to 10% of the country's GDP. Rethink your emotions and get a grip on yourself.

Are you saying without Tourists the GDP would drop down to 6 to 10% of what it is now??

Just as an aside. I was on Pattaya beach the day the first hotel, a three story affair, was opened in December 1970. Just a handful of people gathered on a windy day in front of the building for a ribbon cutting ceremony, some phooyai I'd guess now -- and me and the wife and the kid watching from nearby. And yes, it was a great place then. A wide sandy beach fringed by trees at the end of a village road and hardly a soul - or another building - in sight.

[ausian]

I had a good laugh at this one, Australians, Americans, English and Germans get lifted for sexual activity, but the good old Belgians know the meaning of money. 

[marioDC]

Hi thee, I'm belgian (not to say that i am proud of my country's politics), but you gotta get your facts straight.
YES, politicians are all corrupt here. The gouvernment always gets the little guys (low and mid-class sort to say) and the rich and powerful can get away with everything. But it's not the citizens that choose for this. We all voted again just a couple of weeks ago and the standard parties got the scare of their existence. This time there's a new party, we can only hoipe for the best.
In the past there has been an evolution towards the right, but the other parties joined together so that they oevrruled the one chozen by most people. They even have a word for that : cordon sanitaire.
In other words : no such thing as democracy in Belgium !!
So don't blame the citizens, ...

oz457, on 2010-07-01 15:37:48, said:

Better the farang extort farangs.
Anyway, the Belgian guy probably learned how to extort by looking at his government. That's how it works in Belgium. Fraud and extortion is happening at political level every single day. And even these ministers get re-voted by it's own citizens!

Could it be that they can't trust the regular Pattaya to do a competent job????? I just heard but can't confirm that the 'naval police' in Sattahip are making the drug busts nowdays since the local police were being paid to protect the drug dealers, thereby tipping them off before imminent raids and the 'busts' would turn up nothing. I'm not sure that that is factual, but I for one can certainly believe it. Undoubtedly the same may be true in Pattaya.

Farang takeover? Pattaya was founded be farangs. If there were no farangs there would be no Pattaya.

Looking to your alias are you maybe related to some politicians in belgium. And do you really are that ignorant not knowing that corruption is very common and wide spread amongst belgian politicians even judges are accused of corruption and extortion, not yet to mention the corruption cases in the belgian army. Its even spread in the Royal family. Even political murder occurred in the Southern part of the country, and they did not try very hard to find the real puppet masters. Or do you like I give you a list with names.

BTW Mr.Marc Jacobs was already a very shady figure in belgium before he left for Thailand. I know him from belgium.

As a Belgian myself, I am sorry to say I have been cheated by a Belgian “business man” too.

A Swiss, who lives in Pattaya for many years, once told me: “You should distrust most of all your fellow countrymen, not Thai people.”

So true.

That is exactly what happened to Ibiza.

I have been there in 1973 and 1976 and back again in 2000.

I did not recognize it.

I expect he forgot to obtain the correct visa needed to conduct illegal activites. Work of any kind is not covered under anything apart from a non-B, even illegal work. :-)

Go to look at Immigration Police in Pattaya-Jomtien, Soi 5.

Most farangs who go there to notify their stay, etc. do not match your picture.

Probably his passport was cancelled and this was communicated to Immigration Police by the Belgian Consulate.
