Sad but not a surprise to anyone. Speedy recovery to everyone.

The article calls in to question the entire state of affairs of the majority poor in Thailand. How they are left to fend for themselves with makeshift transportation and other life necessities. Amazing how little the rich, elite, privileged class do or care about them.

isn't the 'school bus' what they use to take people to prison? same-same, but different?

"At the crime scene" well if it's a crime scene it must be an attempted murder. It is no crime but possible driving offences I would suggest. Same shit differrent day.

Can I ask what this "Mr." thing is about?

Until the age of majority, in English language, a young male is a 'Master'.

Thank you.

In English language you may well be quite correct..

But you are in Thailand!!

Of course they bought one, you do not need anything special to take kids dangerously to schools, the police wave to them on top.

Parents don't give a fig how they get there and back, as long as the price suits, PLEASE posters do not come back on this one and tell me parents do not have money for better transport, so many mothers are gambling fathers are at the farm drinking, others are walking their buffalo to the water hole, and kids get home to empty houses, little do I see the parents wait at the gate with a kiss.

Most of the kids have mobiles, has do parents, nice T.Vs, karaoke machines, all homes have m/cycles. most rural houses are a disgrace, as are the toilets (tin shed outside) for the kids to wash in.

Back to the main topic, it's all about caring, government-local administrations, parents. and good enough safe transport for children.

PRIORITIES are all skew wiff right down the line. Caring in general is amiss in this land of smiles. PITY-only the minority have their heads screwed on correct.
