webfact Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 In a disquieting Pattaya robbery event, a mother and her young son became victims of a theft in their rental room in Pattaya. The 26 year old mother found her home broken into and valuables worth more than 100,000 baht, including her four year old son’s cherished piggy banks, taken. The mother, Nisachon Charoengpong, brought this dreadful Pattaya robbery incident to the police’s attention, guiding them into the room, explaining the situation, and indicating the area from which the thief had removed items. She conveyed that during the break-in, which occurred around 5pm one day and was discovered the next day at 5am, neither she nor her son was present. Finding the locked door left wide open and the lights still on, Nisachon realised something had gone horribly wrong. Among the stolen items, the three piggy banks held a special place. They belonged to her son, a preschooler, who had been diligently saving from his school allowance. Following the traumatic Pattaya robbery incident, the young boy reportedly fell silent, refusing to speak. by Top Photo courtesy of TMN Cable TV Pattaya. #news Full story: https://thethaiger.com/hot-news/crime/pattaya-mother-and-son-robbed-childs-piggy-banks-worth-100000-baht-stolen -- © Copyright Thaiger 2023-07-04 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Scouse123 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 26 years old in cheap dorm but claiming she had 100K in valuables and piggy banks. Pigs might fly, I am finding this a bit difficult to believe, not a break in, that is always possible but where does the figure 100K come from?

What are you worth? Married so likely has some gold, kids also given gold at birth by friends, a couple of Ipads, phones, savings, laptop etc Pattaya, it was probably a farang.

But even I don't leave that amount of cash or valuables around the house and I am in my own compound with six dogs, a secure safe, an camera system with movement lights in the garden areas. I certainly wouldn't leave those sums in a 3/4,000 baht a month single room, and I don't know many Thais that would either, if the workers had that kind of money saved, which they rarely do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thailand49 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 It is lots of money for a Thai but I see no reason she making it up by reporting it if it was a hotel yes? I know a few Thais that don't really trust banks I wouldn't be surprise? I look at the photo been around these type of gates where she points is the weak spot nice big square opening as noted even here if they want to they going to get in. I take a good guess whoever broke had connection to someone she knows you don't just break in unless you know even here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
