Guest gonefishing Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 along with an ambulance from the Bangkok-Pattaya Hospital rushed ... after receiving reports of a foreign man who had been knocked down and badly injured ... I can't help wondering if the same ambulance would have "rushed" to the scene if the reports had been of a Thai man, rather than a foreigner!! Quote
