Man in Wheelchair.

Featured Replies

A strange thing just happened,a older Thai man in a wheelchair outside my house asking for help.

He said his wheelchair was broken and needed my help,seemed like a scam and he quickly left when i called out for my Thai wife.

Not even sure he was handicapped..so be careful for what he is up to.

I live in Chalong.

If his wheelchair was broken, how did he get there, and how did he leave????

I love those questions. giggle.gif

If that's the case, I hope for his sake, it's the brake that's not broken. :) :)

Steep hill, broken brakes. He could be in Phuket Town by now.

If he crashed into a farang, he could be rich by now as well. :)

Funny guys,he used that approach to get me out of the house...a problem with the wheelchair.the whole situation was absurd....just a warning if somebody sees him around.

What, exactly, is your warning about? Beware of Phuket "Thainess?" biggrin.png

If this is the same old guy I met 4 or 5 years ago in Chalong he is ok. He said his wheelchair was broken and he just wanted a lift to Big C which from Chalong is quite a distance in a wheel chair. He sprung up on the back of my Phantom folded up the wheelchair and off we went. Truth be told I reckoned the wheelchair was probably ok but I obliged him and he was most grateful.

Some people will do anything on Phuket to get out of paying a tuk-tuk on Phuket. laugh.png

good thing thailand does not have any ada laws like california, it would keep scam lawyers busy 24/7

"he quickly left when i called out for my Thai wife" - I would quickly leave as well. biggrin.png
