Following a shocking Facebook post revealing the abuse of over 280 children at a welfare institution in Saraburi, central Thailand, a multi-disciplinary team, including social development and human security officials, psychologists, and police, swiftly moved to investigate the claims on-site.

In response to these alarming allegations, a multi-disciplinary team, consisting of Social Development and Human Security officials from Saraburi province, prosecutors, social workers, psychologists, and police officers from Phra Phutthabat Police Station, immediately launched an investigation.

Maybe Thai prisons?

Nah no problem. Just 280 kids mentally scarred for life.

And who was supposed to visit this welfare facility on a regular basis to observe how the kids were treated? Are people allowed to set up these facilities with no oversight? 

The time to stop such abuse is before it starts.

Was this a Thai government institution or some overseas owned Christian foundation thing, or something else?

Well, if it was on Facebook it must be true ???? 

They need to receive the same punishment they gave. Sickening how people can treat children this way. They certainly will be scared for life. Hopefully they will find a loving home that can help restore their trust in adults.
