A 56 year old man was deceived and abandoned by a van driver, leaving him stranded along Bang Na-Trat Road, Bang Phli district, Samut Prakan province.


Phorncharoen Saengthothep, originally from Udon Thani, was travelling back home to care for his sick sister suffering from diabetes and had sold his rice cooker and fridge for 800 baht to fund his journey. However, after loading his belongings onto the van, the driver asked him to wait for another van, which never arrived.

 

The man was found crying on the side of the road with his belongings scattered around him. He had been working as a construction worker in the Lat Krabang area and had decided to return home to take care of his sister, who was seriously ill and facing leg amputation due to diabetes. He had sold his rice cooker and refrigerator for a total of 800 baht to pay for his journey home. He had asked his fellow workers to arrange a provincial van for him, clearly informing the driver that he was travelling to Udon Thani.
