What a haul. If I tried a stick up like that back home the bank would tell me to return in 3 days with an armed guard as they do not have that kind of dough on the premises. Its amazing the amount of cash banks have in the drawer here.

Where on earth are you from?  280,000 thai baht = US$ 8000.  IMO, that ain't much at all.  I often read of home burglaries in Hong Kong where 10,000,000 HK$ went missing.

I was gonna say, 270,000 baht is not a lot of money at all.

He'll probably do a lot lessvtime than the guy who tried to sell a Kg of bunk to a DEA Agent.  But people routinely spend that much to avoid a month in jail, but he's probably looking at five years, and if they add on for hijacking a motorbike...he's going to be missing out on a lot of video games.
