KittenKong Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Panicking when the police truck drives past at 2am? Sounds more like stealing than "harvesting". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bheard Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 C'mon now, a woman died, that's the ultimate bad outcome. Give her a break, maybe she wasn't stealing them. And even if she was, then death is not punishment. It's the end of her life. What about the kids she left? And Mum? They will be heart brioken. Don't joke about it guys. R.I.P.

manarak Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) I'm sure in some Western countries, the owner of the tree could be sued for not ensuring the safety of thieves while stealing. Edited May 5, 2015 by manarak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zierf1 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Sad. She should have just found a falang husband to take care. None of this would have happened. No sense in working dangerous jobs if you are a reasonable looking lady in Pattaya. My wife gets about 20,000 baht a month from yours truly and doesn't need to work at all.
