Recently ,in India ,whole nation was angry when a medical student was raped and finally died in New Delhi.Most of the private and government establishments cancelled New Year party and became a front page news in most of the countries including Thailand !The Indian government had to bend under pressure from students ,activists,general public by immediately forming a CALL CENTER for women and many laws on rape are going to change -many calling for capital punishment and chemical castration !So here my question is what is the normal reaction among the Thai public and actions government agencies going to take actions ?

Will the Morons on this discussion still be defending Mr. Cowboy if he is convicted of the crime of rape?

However at the end of the day, this is Thailand. If he is found guilty he'll be out on bail and never serve a day in prison....

D20. Yes it is indeed stupid but a person whoever he is should not take advantage of it. Think also that a friendly person sometimes easily get into hawk by a pretensious person who use to prey innocent strangers. The man befriended the girl and then intoxicated her until finally raped her. Accordingly, this is not the first time he have done it?

Is it not stupid for a lady to accept to have a drink (alcohol) with a man especially a stranger if she is not willing to have sex with him? Some people may argue that it is "human right" to get drunk but one should be able to accept the consequences. Unprotected, unarticulated, unitentional and impulsive sex is a product of alcohol. I guess the lady was seeking for adventure.

Encourage the victim to do like what the fathers' of the rape victim in krabie have done so that proper justice will be given to the victim. This is a serious cases in other countries but in Thailand it's not especially if foreigners are involve. Its so unfair. News like this should likwise be publish worldwide for the people to know how dangerous thailand is for tourist

Why many crimes frequently occured in Pattaya ? Pattaya does not interest to patrol in tourist-area ?? But Pattaya peoples wants to attract foreign tourists to Pattaya ??
Pattaya must establish the Guardian Angels of Pattaya. Do you know"Guardian Angels"??
