 To be honest, I don't know, I guess it all depends on the financial situation I find myself at the time.  If I needed the money for my mom's life saving surgery , very litle , apologise ,and explain.

If I needed for a drunken binger in Pattaya I would be more generous, (end everything in between) after all I would have had zero if she had kept it. 

I don't know  this person's situation and I am not being critical to him, I am not critical to you either I don't know you and I don't know your situation either,, am being critical to callin a $100 reward "decent".  

It is not about being critical. It is about carelessness of these people. Like loosimg 10 grand just lile that? Under stairs or where was it found?

Funny in yday comments about Mayors son killing  persons by his Porsche, was mentioned that today there will be a story that some taxi driver returns the money. Not far from truth ?

100$ reward?  For returning 11,000$?  He must be Dutch, yes...

 $100 a decent reward for returning $11,000? that's less  than 1% , I get a better reward from my credit card.

This Netherland guy sucks! 100 $ reward only, shame on you. Dressed like shit, fits the amount.

She probably thought that it was fake money from Cambodia and didnt want to exchange it 

And you probably think you made a valuable comment or an intelligent joke.

very honest maid and great to see . . . or maybe she knew there was cctv everywhere and that she couldn't get away with it . . . cynical but likely

As likely as you get striked by a thunderbolt sitting on the toilet.

Sorry, I forgot, muscle shirts are the standard outfit of farangs in Thailand.

They just HAD to put "Burmese" maid instead of "Myanmar", didn't they.  No racism in Thailand, is there? 

 

What is the problem?  Burmese is accurate as the country can now be referred to legitimately as either Myanmar or Burma. The " law" was changed some time back to allow this. 

Regardless of what they called her it still wouldn't be ' racism '. Neither Myanmar nor Burma is a race. In the same manner Islam is not a race.

So, what is more racist with calling someone Burmese, instead of a person from Myanmar? You totally lost me there. What is it you know, that many others don´t?

 

 

However, regarding the news. It´s a really lucky guy, at the same time as dumb as a nutshell. How can he just lose 11K of Australian dollars? Unfathomable! Thumbs up for the maid, though. Tumbs down again for the australian guy, who only gave 100 dollar as reward. Disgusting!

What Australian guy?

See this is what you get from 220 baht atm-fee's for foreigners only. 

My wife pays the 220 baht fee on her Aussie card in Thailand.  She isn't a foreigner. 

Nice farang ' how hard done by because the Thais hate me' post anyway. 

Reality is it is a foreign card charge and not a foreigner charge.

Sorry, only read Aussie dollar. Saw he was from the Netherlands now. However, it´s irrelevant because it´s still same stupid and bad.

so many on here keep saying. i am out in bkk a lot and rarely see people in 'muscle shirts' i think you mean vest.

maybe round kaosarn they do but you won't find me near that dump.

my point is if on a beach holiday then for tourists a vest is standard oufit for a lot of people.

seems like this bloke was on a beach holiday in samui not having dinner in tonglor so don't see the issue with him wearing a vest down there

Urban dictionary:
a vest is an item of clothing that makes others shudder.

A muscle shirt:

You find appropriate for such an occasion?

Mr Tight Brown Uniform on the photo looks like he is also expecting something....wonder what it could be ?

[carmine]

Can someone explain to me the "takes a leaf out of the Thai book" in relation to this?  

 

Is it supposed to suggest that Thais are more honest and steal less?  If so, i shall make a note never to read such a preposterous rag of a paper ever again.

[BangkokBaksida]

Wait, no - a foreigner as honest as a Thai?  Hard to imagine.
