Who would do something like that, what is wrong with that person, what kind of a lowlife flees from the scene of a crime after causing grave injury? I think what is more relevant is that they are dragging this back into the spotlight months after the fact to support the government's new farang are bad narrative against tourists and expats. I have lived decades in Thailand and never experienced similar negativity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanuman2547 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Well had this American hit a Thai family instead of a British family you can bet that this whole matter would have been handled a whole lot differently. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravip Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Quality tourists galore! Lets get together and justify this accident too. (It would be very difficult task, as no Thai person was involved). Karma is showing the right way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not against the reporting of this at all.. But I do question the timing and motives for reporting this two months after the event... As I mentioned, I suspect this is published not because its news (its already history) but because this will attract views while 'piggy backing on the “bad farang” rhetoric'...

Sretta seems to be raising the bar to another level, the man is just unbelievably obnoxious, useless, and such a pretender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
