    The other 1,000 baht is the interest she now wants on the money now that the thief has been identified.   Thai style!

From an atm.... no never, ever. Never in Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, Myanmar or the USA. Never

That is because, as your name suggests, you don’t have any money to put in you pockets ????

Sadly I've seen this guy a few times on Walking Street at night!

I think he would be hard to miss.

I feel really sorry for the guy because he is innocent!

 

Look at the video ON A BIG SCREEN from the 10 second mark. He drops a note, which blows forward to where the woman was standing. Rather than chase after it, he waited for the woman to move away, then put his foot on it, and later picked it up.

You obviously haven't viewed the video carefully.

Neither have you.  The folded notes do not drop until the 13/14 second mark and nothing comes from the thief's direction, the money falls straight down from the region of the girls hand and wallet.

I drop 1000 Bht on the floor a Thai lady picks it up.

In the circumstances of this incident, yes.

It does not reflect badly on anyone except him!

Not a lot to say really. Shameful and blatant theft!

 

A man of his age one would think would have had more about himself.

Thieving Old tramp. He should be ashamed of himself. Although, most probably, been like this since a kid. Deport him from Thailand he's a disgrace ......

 

She also appears to have removed the CCTV video from her Facebook page. I guess she must have felt a little sorry for him since she could have left it up to embarrass him further.
