ldiablo Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) And when did he start doing this service? Was it before or after the drunk cabbie punched the copper or the cabbie that robbed and possibly assulted the American woman last week. If before good on him. If after, than it's simply a deflection. If he received an award last year for his good deeds why was it not newsworthy then, but all of a sudden newsworthy.

It doesn't matter when he started offering free rides, that is an irrelevance as is the rest of your post. His award last year did make the press, you just claim not to have seen it in order to have a go at him. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluespunk Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Thought there would be a good cabbie story popping up after recent incidents. Still good on this man. Nice to see someone helping those in need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benalibina Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 He honoured his gift, helping the ones he can. Good example of humanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely enough every time there is negative press about Thailand taxi drivers as was the case last week we suddenly get the taxi driver returns wallet and taxi driver gives free rides propaganda in order to try and make people forget about how Thai taxi drivers really are. That's why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dageurreotype Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Do any of the many critical thinkers on here ever wonder WHY it's almost ALWAYS about taxi drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swamp Thing Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Ah, the good cab driver story. Congratulations to all who predicted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike324 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 One good driver still does not change my mind and actions of the other driver that are making a BIGGER NEGATIVE impact on their peers. But glad there are drivers like this who are above normal and doing community service. I have faith in him as a Thai but not taxi drivers yet. On a business point of view, its a good PR for him to get his taxi service booked, win win for him and the society. Other taxi drivers should take note.
