Amazing Thailand: Independent and handicapped Thai man lives in adapted old vehicle - but his old job is a doozy 

 

Picture: INN

 

INN reported on the story of a 54 year old Thai man well known in the area of Pranburi in Prachuap Khiri Khan on the way south in Thailand. 

 

Amnuay or Phee Nuay is paralysed from the chest down - 70 % of his body. But he is a burden on no one. 

 

He lives in an old car that he has converted into a home. He eats, sleeps and does his toilet functions on board. He likes to park at markets and temples where he gets donations.

 

Some people give him food and kind gas station owners contribute 2,000 baht a month to his fuel bills.

But it is his former employment that puts the story in the "Amazing Thailand" category.

 

For Amnuay used to be a gun for hire.

 

INN reported that he was involved in many hits in his career. 

 

Amnuay called it the "business of revenge".

 

He was a building contractor originally and involved in local politics but his job in hitman circles led to him being a target.

 

Still, that was water under the bridge now and he had no regrets or beefs.

After he was shot five years ago he spent a long time at Thonburi Hospital and in convalescence. He lost all his money.

 

Then a potential benefactor asked him what he wanted to do with the rest of his life and he said get a cheap vehicle and do it out as his home and travel about. 

 

With a 30,000 baht donation he bought the old vehicle and 15,000 more adapted it as a home. 

 

Now the former hit man relies on no one and has an independent life.

Interesting story.

Has he been in prison by the way?

 

Or was his injury counted as equal to jail time?

Well mate, the past is past, and you are certainly doing something for yourself.

My only question regarding this story, is if he is paralyzed from the chest down, he will be unable to  use the toilet himself, so something not 100% correct with this story.

 

Now i will sit back and await the experts on here to tell me i am wrong, and dont know what i am talking about, should be very interesting.

...so the water under the bridge carried the bodies of all he killed..really!.. how can the OP just skip over the fact he murdered innocent people?

Define innocent. There's a good few I know whom I would put on his list.... no chance of "judicial" justice, if that phrasing works.

I am sure you could add some names!

 

At 5k a pop, he'd soon be rich.

Sorry, sick humour! Couldn't resist

Not so worried about his bowel movements but more about how he applies the brakes??

So you are saying he is lying? 

Be careful, he might make a comeback for one last hit.

 

Sounds like he doesn’t have a choice, nobody to help.

Sounds like you have absolutely no idea about people who are paralyzed from the chest down.

I am the one person on this forum who does know.

Yes either he is lying, or who ever reported this story is wrong about his paraplegia.

A person who is paralyzed from the chest down has no control over bowel movements, can happen at any time of the day or night.

he says it himself in the YouTube link. 

Nurse Natalie.....

 

????

Has it got an MG engine?

 

He's 54 and has admitted to killing several people (or at least been directly involved in several murders). Not crimes of passion or spontaneous actions, but cold-blooded, planned killings - yet he is not in prison.

 

He was shot 5 years ago so, presumably, was not in prison then - when he was just 49 and had already killed many.

 

What does a murderer have to do to get a life sentence in this country?

I am amazed that heap is allowed to move on any public highway AND with a physically handicapped driver ! But hey this is Thailand .

Karma got him.

I would rather be normal and in jail than like him. 

He isn’t complaining or wallowing in his own self pity in the interview. Very matter of fact, just getting on with life.

 

He was involved in local politics. They are all big boys and know the risks when they put their hands up to do it. Killings and hitmen go with the territory, just the way it is. Tit for tat.
Hitman are usually brought in from other provinces. I personally know two widows of shot local politicians and an retired bodyguard/ hitman/ driver.

 

They don’t go around killing innocent people. Comparable maybe to OMGs.

 

the story has flaws, I didn't get it.

okay, that's the excuse for kill someone and no need for serve time. amazing thailand.

The answer to that should be pretty self evident. With the hand brake of course, as do many disabled folk in adapted vehicles.

He may well be physically independent, how ever relies on donations, and free petrol, without which  he would be really hard up I guess.

Past history of construction, politics and hitman, well qualified for a government post I guess

..based on the OPs article; as usual not enough sensible information to form a biased opinion; so one must presume they were innocent.

   Some very harsh comments here.

 

Poor bloke explains his difficulties urinating, defacating and cleaning himself but @colinneil is claiming he is a liar and a fake. 
@sammieuk1 is suggesting he is having a tug, and A512 is saying he should be thrown back in jail. 

 

The story in the link is one of admiration and inspiration the way this guy is looking after himself and the way he doesn’t complain and just gets on with it despite not leaving his car for the last five years.

After watching the video I am impressed by the man. I can’t say I am impressed with the nasty attitude towards him here. What is wrong with theses people?

You should be careful with your comments, get your facts straight before having a go at me, i never said he was a fake but possibly he is telling lies.

You think you are being clever, but no just stupid comments knowing sod all about paraplegia.Just weird how you are impressed init.

Next timer before posting you should check up on paraplegia, and about being paralyzed from the chest down.

People who are like that have no feeling anywhere in the body below the chest, have no control over bowel, or bladder what so ever.

He says it himself at the 2.20 minute mark of the video.

“Possibly“ telling lies now. 

You are backtracking a bit now. How about just admit you were wrong.

The poor fella is paralysed from the chest down and he takes care of his toilet needs with plastic bags and tissue pads himself in the impressive car/home he built for himself. It must be terrible during storms, the hot summers etc.

 

 

And he does it without a hint of self pity and doesn’t hold any grudge against the bloke who shot him whatsoever. I admire that.

 

i choose to take him on his word how he takes care of his toilet needs, (and the video showing it all) not your opinion.

You don’t know him and it appears you didn’t even bother to read the link or watch the video, because if you had you would realize you are wrong.
 

Keep digging if you want. But please watch the video first.

well i am shaking now, listen up, if he was a hitman, it means he killed people, are you okay with that? and even if he served time it was less than 5 years.. from where i came from, hitman has only 2 destiny, jail for life or death penalty.

Being a 'gun for hire' he is, most probably, very unfeeling emotionally. As for not holding a grudge, perhaps he knews it was inevitable eventually to be killed or maimed.

 

 

Maybe your ...err...perspicacity, isn't quite what you think...?

After seeing the leaking canvas roof, the 90kmh top speed, the shaky handling, the wind noise and the general build quality of it I think you are probably right. 
 

But an early model, not the high quality product that the Cambodian workers at the Chinese owned factory in Thailand are currently producing in Chonburi. 

 

Well spotted mate.
