CloudStrife Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 It would take her many years to see that kind of cash (not to mention how much tablets and especially passport could potentially be worth). Good on you lady! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gandalf12 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 (edited) I dont see anything about the person giving her a reward or did I miss something? It shows she is a good person. Most Thai's are nice people it is just the few who are scum. Good that the owner gave her a reward she deserved it.

inventorinthailand Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Running out of taxi- drivers? Yes my thought as well. Most likely staged by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) to counter balance the bad publicity received from Hua Hin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will find that a majority of the worlds population are nice people. Sadly its always the nasty bastards that make the news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
