If you see this luckless dad and his son – give them a helping hand

A dad and his son out on their luck tugged at the Thai heartstrings as their story was shared online Saturday.
The Phijit natives were in Kanchanaburi to earn a crust cutting sugar cane but their employer had not paid them and they were broke. In addition the father’s wife had left him and dad and his child were left heartbroken.
But a kindly Thai saw their tearful trek, penniless as they attempted to walk back the hundreds of kilometers from Kanchanaburi to Phijit, tired and hungry. Facebook poster “Tik Nuttawut” stopped to enquire about them and ended up giving them a ride to Nakorn Sawan, buying them food and drink and giving them some money to get the rest of the way.
“If you see them show them the true Thai way and give them a hand,” said his post on the You Like page.
Comments poured in about “Tik’s” true Thai kindness as people wished the father and son all the best.
