A Thai woman took to social media to demand responsibility from her foreign neighbours after their personal cannabis use allegedly caused her son’s illness. 

 

The woman, Arpapan Jaiman, posted on Facebook on November 2 that a foreigner had just rented a room within her condominium in the northern province of Chaing Mai. Arpapan accused the foreigner and his friends of smoking cannabis inside the room.

 

Arpapan later revealed with Channel 3 that the incident occurred at about 6.40pm on October 31. She and her four year old son could smell the strong odour of cannabis in the hallway which made them feel dizzy and lightheaded and later gave them headaches.

 

Arpapan then reported the issue to the condo caretakers. At about 10pm, her son started crying but was unable to tell her what was wrong with him. She thought he had a headache and gave him the medicine.

 

However, the symptoms did not get better and the boy started vomiting and then lost consciousness. She reached out to the condo caretakers to get an ambulance to take her son to the hospital. According to Arpapan, the doctor concluded that her son had been affected by cannabis smoke.

 

Arpapan explained that the room next to her was owned by a Chinese national. The Chinese owner opened the room for rent and most of the tenants were foreigners. She asked her foreign neighbours to stop using cannabis and pay compensation to her and her son but the foreigners refused.

If indeed the Chinese owner is subletting short-term to party animals, then lady, you ain't seen nothin' yet.

Why say such a strange thing. If indeed the owner of the condo is subletting short term, he will be accused for that and there will be an end as that is illegal.

Thai people using their children as a human shield again.

 

There is no where to park - my child is late for school

I feel sad - I can't feed my child help me

It's raining - I left my child locked outside

We got robbed - Get the child in the news clip

Give me money - Picture of the child happy with new toys

The queue is long - My baby is dying in the heat please hurry up

The neighbors smoke - They made my child go to hospital

Teachers skin is dirty, ask to change to be the white teacher - My child doesn't like the teacher.

 

 

 

Of course its the farangs fault...if they hadn't been here it wouldn't have happened🥷

Chinese owner sub-letting out his property.. naughty person.
