Around 10-20 policemen from Samran Rat, Nang Loeng and Royal Palace stations as well as those from other units rushed in to separate the two groups.

brianthainess Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 The Hospital should implement a system where, if these morons start a problem, then stop their payment for bringing the dead and injured, and ban the problomatic 'rescue foundations' from operating for them.
