Typcial Thainess. 

 

When they can't squirm out of responsibility, or bullly those weaker into backing down, the only tactic left is to appeal to Thais' sappy emotional side. 

 

We all feel so sad and sorry for you all, and we understand that 9 years later you have still not paid even a single Baht.

I don't know about Thailand, but in my culture, such people are known as "sociopaths."

There was a time when I was convinced that sociopathy was the default psychology of Thai society.

In Thailand they are known as "the good people", the most Thai of Thai, of high birth owing to good deeds in previous lives. 

 

They are better than others and therefore can do whatever they want.

Traditionally a "shame culture," rather than a "guilt culture," the problems arise when members of the society become incapable of shame.

she will repay the ministry when she has the money!!!!  5555

 

Typical BS from a Thai who wants to pass responsibility to someone else...9 years...enough already!

The survivors are also on sleeping pills. These rich folk wanted then news to die down, like our little Red Bull Mensa candidate. It will not happen!

This poor excuse for a mother should think herself lucky that her family had the money to keep her way wood daughter out of jail. 16 years and 6 months old no driving licence, any other country the mother would be visiting her daughter in the slammer every other week for 20-30 years, why was she not charged with 9 counts of manslaughter Oh that's right mommy have money to buy police & judges you hypocritical bitch pay up and SHUT UP.

Plays the victim card. Woe is me. We get headaches. Oh, those 9 dead people. Yeah, that was a real shame. But, my daughter did 44 hours of community service since our appeal to have that harsh punishment lowered. She forgot to do the community serice the following 3 years. The money.

Mother of reckless driver urges crash victims to stop condemning her family

If the shoe fits, wear it! You are part of what's wrong with Thailand!

Zero compassion or regret.

 

Live in fear and sadness forever.  Som nom na, bitches.

 

 

Utterly shameless.  9 people dead but her whole rant was me, me, me.  Horrible family, all of them.

It is not just about the insensitive remarks, lack of compassion, or refusing to take ownership of their responsibility for paying the offended family for their pain and suffering...it is the seemingly unconcern by authorities to end this debacle and bring closure...

 

How hard can that really be?  ????

That family tree is rotten all the way to the roots.

Family were forced to pay compo in 2013 through the standard court.

In 2015 their lawyers took it thru the Appeals court.

Failed, compo was upped to 21 mil.

In 2017 their lawyers took it to the Supreme court.

Failed, compo upped to a still pathetic 25 mil.

The majority of victims were university grads, ie not minimum wage earners and had a lifetime of decent wage earning ahead of them.

Not only are compensation figures of 25 mil insulting and derogatory, the family's consistent avoidance of paying over 9 years, and dragging it thru ANOTHER two higher courts, shows what scumbags this family really are and their complete disregard for their victims.

They deserve everything coming their way.

Karma is a bitch.

Yes, well, the victims and their families doesn't have to rely on sleeping pills.

She also called on the Justice Ministry to immediately pay the state-commissioned compensation she owes for the nine dead victims and the three injured, adding that she will repay the ministry when she has the money. 

The other English paper states the amount owing as 24.76 million baht and that the family have land to sell totalling 105 million baht but selling it may take time. The mother's suggestion above is ludicrous. She wants the government [the taxpayer] for pay for her daughter's sins and then she'll repay the government.

Quicker! Why not mortgage the properties, pay the monies and then repay the mortgage?

Or maybe the reality is that this family has already borrowed up to the hilt to keep up appearances?  The cheque for 500,000 baht is cheap....it's less than what a foreigner has to have for a retirement visa. They have a name but nothing else. That's why they're scared of all this publicity.

She's lucky she never did any jail time to start with 16 years old, I always think the parents should be some what held responsible as they let her drive the car

It would be nice if someone would translate these comments here on TV and post for the mother and the Thai social media to read.

These comments kind of reflect world opinion from people who generally don't care a bit about the esteemed "na" in your name.

Her Actions speak louder than her words. 

9 bloody years and no action. 

 

those families of victims and many others related will condemn your daughter and your family all their lives.

because, you provided a car to a then 17 years old girl who has no driving license which is illegal and dangerous and this resulted on many deaths.

and it is almost a decade and your family didnt compensate the families of the victims too and now selling those assets??

and where are those hundreds of millions of baht worth of assets? lands, houses etc?

bc father is a colonel! what a colonel. authorities should check the origin if assets of this family.

Great to hear that her infamy hasn't faded! It's needed more often if these people are to acquire some conscience. 

Seems there's still a ways to go with these turds. 

The Legal Execution need to send all property deeds to auction.

What's with this country's Legal Execution that they won't collect monies due following a court judgement unless you bribe them?

Phone diary : Buy new car, plead poverty, apologise. 

Let's drag out a few other facts to help illustrate how deeply sorry and remorseful Praewa is, shall we?

 

Back in 2010, Praewa received a suspended jail term of 2 years and was ordered to annually complete 48 hours of community service for 3 consecutive years, totaling 144 hours. Six hours were deducted by the court due to her donating blood, leaving 138 hours. Her community service was to be performed at a hospital in her home province of Nonthaburi, the exact location to be determined by the Probation Department.

 

In 2012, Praewa presented to the PD a letter issued by Phramongkutklao Hospital, certifying that she had completed 90 hours of community service there. The PD rejected the letter, saying the hours could not be counted because firstly the hospital was NOT located in Nonthaburi, and secondly the location had NOT been assigned by the PD.

 

As it turned out, Praewa had unilaterally "selected" Phramongkutklao Hospital because apparently a close relative was working as a doctor there. We can only imagine how the community service Praewa panned out under the watchful eye of that "uncle": Sitting around in the nurse station all day, drinking coffee, playing with her smartphone and watching TV.

 

Praewa told the PD at the time she "misunderstood" that the community service location had to be assigned by the PD and that she was not allowed to simply choose a place at her own pleasure. Since we must assume that she cannot possibly be that dumb (and also that her parents would have correctly understood the conditions set by the PD), she was clearly lying, having chosen "uncle's workplace" solely for her own convenience, the remorseful person that she allegedly is.

 

Finally, in August of 2016 (i.e. more than SIX years after the accident), girlie had finally completed her 138 hours. That works out at an average of 23 hours PER YEAR! We have to keep in mind here that Praewa by her own admission does NOT hold any regular job, thus has every single day of the year at her free disposal. But I suppose her many social commitments paired with her "deep depression" really prevented her full commitment.

When asked why the payments have been delayed for nine long years, Laddawan only said that it felt as if the incident had taken place yesterday and that she and her family have been traumatised by the tragedy and social condemnation throughout.

What a load of crap!  I get traumatised reading about people like this, on such a regular basis.

 

The family's assets should have been siezed by the court years ago, and the whole family should have been turned-out onto the street, obviousy where their roots are.

 

I bet not one of the family would have a clue what principals are; the mother certainly doesn't, and the daughter doesn't give a toss, anyway.

 

I wish the colonel luck with selling the family's properties, and the victims' families with receiving the awarded compensation.
