webfact Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Picture: INN INN continued to report on the case of an 80 year old man who was taken to hospital after crawling out of the monk's quarters at a temple in Bua Lai district of Nakhon Ratchasima. The media said that he had been dumped on the monks by his family. The man was taken to a hospital in Khon Kaen where he was diagnosed with Covid because he is a native of Phon in Khon Kaen province. Phon mayor Kittichote Triamwechwutthikrai along with social services went to present the quarantining family with a bag of essential supplies at their home. The 80 year old had spent most of his life in Bangkok but after retiring he had gone back to Phon. He crawled out of the monk's quarters because he was aged, sick and feeling faint said an unidentified man called Somboon. Social services were helping and when the old man had recovered he would be taken home in a vehicle supplied by them. INN then spoke to the man's daughter Janya over the phone. She said she didn't know that her dad had Covid. After a request from her father who said he wanted to see the chief monk at the temple who was an old friend she took him there and left him in the care of the monks. She did not dump him and now with all the social media criticism of her and her family the stress has been terrible, she said. On top of that she has also just tested possible for Covid-19. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2021-07-29 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedrogaz Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Who knows what is the truth. People do tell lies which sound plausible to get out of embarrassing situations. Why doesn't the chief monk come forward and tell us whether the man was dumped or delivered gently by her into his loving care? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why doesn't the chief monk come forward and tell us whether the man was dumped or delivered gently by her into his loving care? I did wonder about the original story. I know many old people here who have more faith in the Monks than the Doctors so her side of the story may be just as likely to be true. Did she know or suspect he had covid? Did the Monks know or suspect and dragged him outside? Truth can be stranger than fiction ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smedly Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 she did not dump him, she hit a very big bump in the road and he was launched out of the back of the pickup into a hedge - she got to the temple a few minutes later and thought he had run off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timmyp Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 The headlines makes it sound like she has been served a great justice. Covid isn't anything to worry about at her age. It's a whole lot to worry about as an 80-year-old, though. Who knows what the real story is behind all of this... another example of being misled by someone making up excuses to justify embarrassing behavior, or another example of the press really twisting a non-story into something crazy for clicks. I clicked, I guess I contribute to the proliferation of click-bait headlines 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianthainess Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The photo of him laying on the ground outside, and a headline that he was dumped was very misleading, it made it look like that was where he was dumped. He crawled there from the monks quarters not DUMPED there on the road! Irresponsible reporting IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
