(BANGKOK THAILAND)- SEPTEMBER 22, 2010 – The Rapper/ artist “Ribkat” and band members are asked to leave their Hotel “Nasa Vegas Complex Luxury Hotel” in Bangkok because as they were told by the hotel manager “they had to respect the Hotel policy” which is to discriminate against blacks and Indians”. The hotel staff and manager also refused to refund the amount they paid up front for their hotel rooms.
“Ribkat”, a well known member of the multi-platinum selling group “Fort Minor” with Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park was told by the Hotel Manager that they did not allow blacks or Indians at their Hotel.
“Ribkat” asked them why they accepted his payment in the first place if this was part of their racist policy. Nasa Vegas advertises long term stay deals which is exactly what Ribkat was inquiring about to begin with due to several business engagements in Thailand only to be lied to by the Nasa Vegas staff stating that there were no rooms available for long term rent which in the end turned out to be a big fat lie all because Ribkat is an African American.
Welcome to Thailand, home of ‘Thai-ness’ and the land of the idiot grin.
The house that Jack built, and Jack likes it just fine.
Comment We insist that the situation must have been made my mistake. Nasa Vegas Hotel does not have any form of racist policy. It is impossible that we would reject any customer, especially with the global economy being how it is. We greatly welcome all customers, no matter what their race or colour. As you will be able to see, many types of people from many countries, please come and see for yourself. Our rate starts from only 690 Baht per night.
Best Regards
