A bright spot in a greedy world

Post by BKKSTAN » December 11, 2006, 8:35 am

:) From Pattaya new:[quote]Honest Taxi Driver returns bag containing over 200,000 Baht to Norwegian Tourist with the help of the Tourist Police.

A nice story now from the Tourist Police Station located half-way up the Pratamnuk Mountain. Police Captain Wattana oversaw this case which begun with a visit to the station by Khun Soopat, a taxi driver who had picked up a Foreign man from the Suvanabumi Airport in Bangkok and brought him down to a Hotel on Walking Street, South Pattaya. Mr. Per Kristian Rustan aged 52 from Norway left the Taxi and all appeared normal as Khun Soopat returned to Bangkok. He soon realized that a small bag had been left behind by the Norwegian and inside was 900 US Dollars, 70 Euro

yes a good news story, i did read about a similar one a while back,when a Pattaya baht bus driver did the same thing. Does give a feel good factor when reading such news storys.
If anything like that did ever happen to me i sure hope that i would be the fortunate passenger that has the belongings/money returned.
Can You Dig It Dug.?
