DEATH OF TAXI DRIVER IN HCM CITY

I don't know about that one but today I read about some Thai taxi driver hacking a customer with a 12 inch machete over $1.60. Um, I think I would of paid the dude just because I wouldn't want to have any missing body parts or worse "dead"!

I would say he is either in jail awaiting trial or he paid the police and family off and is out. It was in October 2012 here is the link

It is unlikely.  Once things get that spectacular, the under-the-table option is out.  The best can happen to the guy is to serve his sentence back in Australia.  But, that process will be drawn out.  He is probably in isolation somewhere, in Vietnam.

Unlikely, but it does happen, an ex government official just got home detention after killing three people while drunk driving in Dalat, so anything is possible.

It does seem strange that after 3 years there has been nothing in the news about the court case,so where is he.

You can't compare yourself to a Vietnamese Communist Party member, man!  You, a foreigner, is at the bottom of the pecking order here, while senior party members are at the top. 

The guy is probably at a Vietnamese Gulac, somewhere, awaiting deportation.

Gee you come up with ridiculous statements.Where did I compare myself to a government official,man.

Ridiculous?

Dude, you just inferred that it was "unlikely" that the guy would be locked up, "in isolation." 

You even followed with an example of an official getting 3 years of "home detention after killing three people while driving drunk..."

Learn to read, I said he was either in jail or paid his way out. I never said he wasnt locked up,just gave two possibilities,dude.

Would you kindly go look up the meaning of the word, unlikely.  While you are at it, look up the word, ridiculous, as well. 

It seems like you are using words that you don't understand, or YOUR reading ability is indeed poor.

I have read numerous posts of yours on here and it seems you have a very high opinion of yourself.

Read your statement comparing myself with a party official, now thats ridiculous .I never quoted that. Anyway, its getting off the subject and Im sure you will keep going as you seem to think you are of a higher standing then others.

Dear members,

Oh please this is one of the most over-moderated discussion boards I have ever had the pleasure to be on...

Hi colinoscapee,

Can you please write in English as this is an english speaking forum so that everyone can understand.
