Supposedly, afraid of facing the families of the victims. Of course, the people in that kind of situation can rely on the Thai BIB to protect them from any illegal activity, right???

impulse Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 6 hours ago, spidermike007 said: Chuchart Plasuwan is a tiny man and a coward. In this life when terrible things happen and you are the cause or the responsible party, you own up. In other words you MAN up! You act like an adult. You do not flee like a scared child. With the attitude of alot of Thais and their refusal to own the problems they cause, law enforcement needs to create massive penalties for the act of fleeing from the scene of a crime or evading an arrest warrant. Perhaps it would act as a deterrent and discourage acts of cowardice? You have a lot more faith in the Thai legal system than a lot of us. He may or may not be responsible for the tragedy. Money and power are a lot more relevant in Thailand than guilt or innocence. Thai's know that instinctively. Falangs only find out on the rare occasions they get sucked into the system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pancho Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 One must take pause, this disease is in full effect on the highest peak of national operations. Willing parties working together for the all powerful international certification. Greed,corruption,fraud. Innocent tourists bled dry. Engineered incompetence. No matter, uncle somchai, will give you new job, bmw, pay for wedding and house. Never mind, stupid workers had it coming. It’s their fault for standing in the wrong place. Yes Thailand has never been occupied, that is until the Chinese “ economic hit men “ are finished with them. End rant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't it be the manager of the construction company to take responsibility? Presumably the manager of the Petrol Station company has no experience (or liability) for the construction of the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
