Thaivisa News Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Phuket:- Two Chinese tourists got their lost wallet with several credit cards, ID cards and some cash back after a deputy school director found it in a toilet room in Phuket. Bai Yanfeng, 31, and Hu Jinna,28, got the wallet back from Pol Lt Col Milin Pianchang, deputy chief of Phuket Police, in a ceremony at the Phuket Police head office at 3:45 pm Saturday. The Chinese couple left the wallet inside a toilet room of a PTT petrol station in Phuket’s Thalang district on Wednesday. Later on, Anurak Butsarn, a deputy director of Thessaban 6 School in Chiang Rai found the wallet and she handed over it to the Phuket Tourist Police. The wallet contained four credit cards, 5,000 Chinese yuan in cash and Bt10,000 in cash as well as the couple’s ID cards. The husband would like to give a reward of Bt10,000 to Anurak but she declined it. Bai later gave the money to Jiratip Julakaew, a tourist police volunteer who helped coordinate until the couple got the wallet back. The Chinese couple appeared very happy to get the wallet back. Milin said Jiratip was the one who drove the bus that brought a group of teaches from Anurak’s school to visit Phuket on an education trip that day. Jirathip led Anurak to hand over the wallet to Phuket Tourist head office. Milin said what happened would set a good example for other Thais and it was lucky that a tourist police volunteer also cared about the Chinese tourists. Milin said he hoped that the Chinese couple would convey this good news to their friends and relatives back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NativeSon360 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) Congratulations on a good deed (by a Thai), for a welcomed change of selective social behavior. However, the Laws of Karma rewards best, those who (quietly) do good deeds for others, without "publicly" blowing their own trumpets, about it.

I would presume it was not her that went public with this, especially since she refused a reward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presuming the story is true (to begin with), the wallet-finder allowed her name to be publicized, and the reward refusal was probably just a "face-saving" gesture, by someone who can live well-enough, despite the 10K-bht. reward offer.
