rooster59 Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Youth, 16, loses a hand in his mum's ice dicing machine Image: Thairath ANG THONG:-- Our picture this morning shows an Ang Thong policeman at an ice factory after a 16 year old boy got his hand caught in a machine used for cutting up ice. The boy, Sakpon Khiawnoi, was helping his mum Wanisa, 44, who is the owner of the factory in Talat Luang sub-district. His hand was sliced off at the wrist and cut into pieces. The policeman is pointing at some of the bits left over after the boy was rushed to Ang Thong hospital. The mother told police that he slipped while helping her out. A witness who was eating nearby dashed over and picked up a fair sized chunk of what was sliced off and put it in some ice so that it could be taken to the hospital with the victim. Manit Nakphaibun of the Ang Thong police saw the victim at the hospital then went to the factory to investigate further and found a lot of blood and a lot of leftover pieces of the boys right hand in the machine. He will investigate further. The report did not contain any information about what doctors were able to do to help the boy.

djayz Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Children shouldn't be allowed around dangerous machines or factories in general... The lack of care for human life and basic safety standards here is truly appalling. So young and left maimed for life. I sincerely hope he is a bright lad who is good in school. Otherwise his future could be quite bleak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant example of how messed up people are in this place. That really isnt a smile .

Fithman Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 An appalling injury for a young man to suffer. Reflect on the fact that in the West the H&S people would swarm over this , the young person would receive significant compensation and have access to the latest bio-mechanical prosthesis. http://bebionic.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briggsy Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 (edited) Cutting machines need to have guards over the blade and automatic cut-off devices so you cannot just "slip" and cut off your hand. (I don't believe the "slipping" tale by the way). Operatives need to be trained in safety. Inexperienced operatives should be monitored. I would wager none of the above safeguards was observed.

catinthehat Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I am afraid that there was no teaching moment on the SAFE use of the machine. Son please go over and shred some ice for me. But good to hear that as he had slipped, it was NOT his fault. that pesky wet floor caused it. More reason for the safety training. And yesterday his job was to sweep the shop floor. I hope they had some semblance of accident or disability insurance............................ All so sad and preventable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it is definately not BUT im going to be the ringer of bad news and say its a very common occurrence here. Thais side with anothers point of veiw regardless of facts or another side to the story. Your right. Its not right. I agree 200% but asking if thais doing the same is fine...?Well, it appears so to many a thai (not all) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the stuff posted on "facebook" is indeed disgusting and often originates from the West, the Middle East or parts of South Asia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
