Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Thai and Filipino ladyboys involved in serious fight outside Sukhumvit Road over bullying in viral footage.
Police broke up a brawl between Thai and Filipino transgender women on Soi Sukhumvit 11 late on Monday night.
Police rushed to the scene after a report that about 20 Filipino trans women had attacked two Thai trans women.
The attack was recorded and posted online. More Thai trans women were mobilised via social media to gather at the scene to respond to the attack.
Three clashes broke out between this group and the Filipinos outside a hotel in the soi, even though police tried to step in and “rescue” them.
Many members of the gathering said they had not been asked to show up, but had come to support the six Thais who were attacked by their Filipino peers at 5am on Monday.
A clip of the row was posted on social media, but what sparked anger were the taunting comments posted by the Filipino group.
The two Thai representatives said they had not called for any backup, but had only gone to the hotel where the Filipinos were staying to settle differences.
“We think others saw the clips and wanted to be there to show us moral support,” one of them said.
