Popular Post BlackWolf Posted September 11, 2010 Popular Post Share Posted September 11, 2010 6 months ago a friend of mine stayed in Samui for some time. The last night he made a "go home party" with many people enjoying. The next day when he had to return home, he missed his original Rolex watch valued about 350.000 bath and he had to go back home without it. And with the believing that he had lost it during the party. Now these days he returned to Samui and rented a house at the same place as last time, Blessing Village in Ban Rak. Just after arriving the Thai caretaker-man Mr. Boy came to his house bringing back his missing Rolex. He had found it in the house when he cleaned it after his latest stay. Of course my friend was overwhelming happy and would like to give him a reward. Mr. Boy refused to take it , so my friend nearly had to force it upon him. Its good to know that there are some honest people out there. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MB1 Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Why bring a watch like that to Thailand in the first place, truly amazing! Why not, IMO Thailand is one of the safest places in the world to wear a genuine Rolex, most people don't look twice at it, they think it's a copy...

mkawish Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Why bring a watch like that to Thailand in the first place, truly amazing! Some families have more than one! Did you not know that! Now, that is even more amazing! I bet you won't know either then, that some Thais kept their originals in the safe and wore the copies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeO Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 You wil definitely find trusting thai people in thailand.But just like anywhere,people are people Very true. I once dropped my wallet on the back seat of a taxi after taking out the money to pay the driver. He drove off while I went into my townhouse. Five minutes later he was back outside sounding his horn having spotted the wallet on the back seat. He didn't even stick around long enough for me to give him a reward, despite the fact that he clearly deserved one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
