I agree ,you misunderstand me i think  .Immediate needs need to be taken care of for the family .Expats giving something back is a great gesture .Just hope the Aussie person who caused this is made to pay his share ,i will put it no stronger than that .

Expats giving something back? Yeah, because we are all 'take, take, take' in Thailand. About time the foreigners gave something back.

Highly doubtful the majority of that lot piss it up the wall. Bunch of boys pretending to be men but can't even hack normal family life for more than 4 weeks. Not all but not many good lads in that broth.

He best be right in his accusation that the driver was over the alcohol limit for driving too, if not he may find himself in court paying a lot more than B50,000 to the driver of the pick-up.

Try to look at the upside the focus is now on helping an orphan so that's the new topic within this topic.

Come on, you can't just make a statement that this kid is now orphaned and then just disappear. When did this tragedy happen? I just watched his mother on TV yesterday talking about the terrible event that put her son in hospital. What happened to her and her husband since then to make this kid an orphan? This is just awful.

Yes, he has started a number of campaigns with various titles. I can see how you got confused about the facts.

Done , had trouble with Paypal/credit card optinon but its already lit up so just click continue and it does it for you. Don't keep clicking paypal/creditcard like I did

It would be nice to think that some of the money raised will be diverted to the husband of the poor dead woman. He has two funerals to pay for and an unimaginable amount of grieving to do. I don't know if he has other children to take care of, but I'm sure the family will make sure he receives some help ??

This kind off fund raising effort is about many people giving a small amount, surely you can afford 100 Baht ?

 

Any compensation the Aussie volunteers or is forced to pay could be weeks or months away ..... there are immediate needs to be taken care of for this family ??

Unfortunately it's wrong and should have been corrected a long time back.

Fair comment.

 

Then try to cut back spending for 2 days, maybe a few cans of coke skipped, and then come back and hit the link when you have it.

Regardless of the error in the title I think the lad has been wronged and in his time of urgent need people have a chance to take a forum topic from continual debate to action and hopefully for the best care this kid can get.

Any mods reading and following this thread, could you please have a word with the TV newsletter team and ask if they could highlight and link post 760 of this thread, the donation web address, in one of the many Thaivisa Newsletters i get sent to me every week.

 

I believe one post in the Featured Forum Threads, linking directly to Page 51 will hopefully help the donation appeal and raise more money for Wach.

 

I'm sure there's many TV members that would like to help after reading this terrible story but dont know about the donation website.

 

[ELVIS123456]

Currently 33,800 - keep going guys.

If some posters applied as much vigor in donating B100 /200 as they do belting out nonsense posts, the 50 000 would take about 10 minutes to reach target.

Some Great Brits stepped up off this forum yesterday and pumped another fund for the lad. Fair play lads.

Yes it's the same link, or directs you to the same fund raising site as the on in the previous post ..... the one that people on here have been donating to.

[jaroulz]

My bad, didn't read the whole thread. Just found out about this recently that's why I wanted to share.

[ELVIS123456]

47,800 baht.  Almost to the 50,000 target. Great stuff.

[bangkokairportlink]

so what happened to the killer ? How much did he have to pay to be free ?

[bangkokairportlink]

Sorry, I didn't follow up, was the motorbike in the middle of the road ? But he is still 100% guilty ?

June 24th the report that the driver was over 2 times the alchohol limit, confirming some rumours that he was drunk. Any attempted benefits from doubts about his character or value completely evaporated now. 

 

Yesterday the boy was moved to general surgery and so out of airconditioned ICU... (apparently ICU 15 beds and lots of staff down to the super hot 100+ bed wards). The reporter visited and wrote a little at the link below... it's rather depressing to be honest.
