Thailand tops list of British foreign arrest locations
In terms of percentage of number of British travellers per country, anyway. In terms of total number of Brit arrests, Spain takes the prize. You naughty, naughty limeys.
https://pattayaone.news/en/brits-behavi ... -thailand/Brits behaving badly: UK citizens most likely to get arrested in Thailand
By Online Admin - May 2, 2018
British nationals are more likely to be arrested in Thailand than in any other overseas country, official figures reveal.
However, it’s in Spain and the USA where the highest number of arrests of British nationals were recorded.According to the most recent stats available, which record the period from 1 April 2015 to 31 March 2016, a total of 194 Brits were arrested in Thailand, which amounts to 45 per 100,000 visits.
The stats, which last week were compiled by statistics company Statista, were taken from the Helping British Nationals Abroad 2015/16 report.
The report found that after Thailand, it’s the UAE and Portugal where Brits are most likely to be arrested with per 100,000 figures of 41.35 and 27.69, respectively.
While Spain topped the list overall with 1,012 arrests, that was from 13 million British visitors, giving it a per 100,000 figure of just 7.8, which is average for most destinations.
By comparison, 432,000 Brits visited Thailand during the same period, resulting in 194 arrests, FCO figures revealed.
A report by The Sun last month revealed that Brits under the age of 40 are more likely to die in Cambodia and Thailand than in any other overseas country.

Re: Thailand tops list of British foreign arrest locations
In Cambodia only a few dozen Brits get arrested every year so it's lucky Cambodia isn't in the top 10, that would just encourage more of their worst hooligans to venture further than Thailand. Just for the aggro like.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
