Former kid actor 'Patrick' fined for punching taxi driver
By Coconuts Bangkok



BANGKOK: -- A former child actor was arrested by Makkasan police last night after he started a fight with his taxi driver. As is often the case with former child actors, he was totally wasted.

While it seems only yesterday Chanon “Patrick” Makaramani played the precocious lakorn child “Mooyong” (pork floss), now he’s 18 and apparently our little Mooyong is old enough to celebrate Loy Krathong by punching his taxi driver in the face at 3am.

The driver then decided to hand him over to the police at a checkpoint in Makkasan district.

The intoxicated Mooyong reportedly resisted and yelled at police, claiming they would hurt him.

Can't handle their pseudo-fame??

Stereotyping?? Maybe just a little!!

True (stereotyping), but funny all the same.

No more so than you do for that remark.

I realize it has already been posted 4 times, but I thought it so funny I just wanted to post it again.

But.....................many a true word spoken in jest. Think about how many well known child actors from the western countries ran off the rails later in life.

[falangjim]

The quotes should have gone around "actor" and not his Western name.

Cute spoilt kid becomes total jerk: a universal theme there.

[EyesWideOpen]

So if a farang punches a taxi driver, the farang will get a beating

outside the car from the ten nearby taxi drivers. If a well known

Thai punched a taxi driver, think nothing would happen. So this

" kid" appears to be a luk khrueng , so his punishment will be

to be dropped at the police , a sort of half punishment ??

Let me see who springs to mind....

Tatum O'Neal

Hilary Duff

Britney Spears

Lindsay Lohan

Amanda Bynes (who apparently is STILL off the rails)

Macaulay Culkin

Drew Barrymore

Miley Cyrus (also STILL off the rails)

Those are all I can think off at the moment.

I agree with Pattaya 28. Perhaps Sviz Geez has not ridden in many Thai taxis.

I would estimate as many as 50% cannot manage the simple process of picking up a passenger, driving them in a legal, timely fashion, straight to the destination asked, using the meter and not trying some kind of scam.

I use taxis to drive the same routes to work most days.

Why do you say racist? My opinion is most Thai people, although decent and honest, do tend to have a low level of intelligence, what about the way they drive and ride motorbikes? and why do so many parents let their 10 year olds also ride them?

You are entitled to disagree with me, but I always call things as I see them.

The problem is, you see things the way a brainless bigot would see them.

"...most Thai people...have a low level of intelligence..." What nonsense! It shows your own level of intelligence.

What a stupid answer Pooped, What's being bigoted about having an opinion about the natives of a country I live in? I have told it from both sides, only a brainless idiot cannot see that.

I stand by what I said. You are now ignored, so just you run along. This debate is finished.

I wasn't going to pursue because I don't believe in trying to teach Latin to donkeys, but thanks, TooPooped, for popping in and saying the right thing. When racism (or any other form of stereotyped prejudice) is called an 'opinion' ... that's when the world is ready for another Hitler.

I wonder if he made that boooyng noise and bird whistle noise like they do in Thai programmes when he hit him

Hes not being racist but id agree, he could have worded things a little better,Thais in many cases do show little adult responsibility, low quality education, lack of common sense and forethought. Its not low intelligence so much just very bad education and a careless uber selfish corrupt establishment that sets the example...

The kid sounds just like many Thai teens.. not just celeb.
