Honest Baht Bus driver returns lost bag to the delight of its Scottish owner.

A nice story now from the studios of a local radio station based at Mike Shopping Mall in South Pattaya. Mr. Arthur Campbell aged 56 from Scotland hired a Baht Bus from Pattaya Park in Jomtien to Soi Beokeow in South Pattaya. The Baht bus number was 218 and it was driven by Khun Wichien aged 47. Mr. Campbell arrived at his destination; however as the bus left he realized that he had left a bag on the seat. What made Mr. Campbell more concerned was the fear of losing the contents of the bag which contained a silver necklace worth more than 2 Million Baht. Mr. Campbell decided to make an appeal on the radio station and it wasnтАЩt long until the driver of the bus came forward with the lost bag and its contents. Khun Surat, the Managing Director of Mikes Shopping Mall came to oversee the return of the bag to the lucky Scottish tourist by the Baht Bus Driver who was well compensated for his honesty.

That must have been some silver necklace to be valued at over $52,000USD

based on the global price of silver, it should weigh more than a kilo.
:cheers: for the baht driver for his honesty, this is surely one good news to lighten up my day.
