I might sound cynical but there seems to be a spat of these good samaritan media grabs right at the start of the high season.

We're overdue for a story about a jai dee taxi driver who finds 200,000 euros cash in his cab (sic) and spends all day looking for the passenger and eventually finds him.

It will happen shortly.

If you want to go on holiday, and think there is a chance of mislaying your wallet, come to honest Thailand.

Not only do you get your wallet back, you also get a photo opportunity with the (albeit Tourist) Thai police !

A genuine modern fairy tale. I'm almost crying.

There gotta be a joke somewhere along the lines of "How many police does it take to return a wallet?" in this photo

Deluded mentality !!

How sad of a place is it when basic honesty is hot news?
