AhFarangJa Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I have to seriously doubt the veracity of the figures, and smell an insurance scam on the horizon. 80,000 cans of beer equates to 3,333 cases. If there were 100 people involved ( which I think unlikely ) then that means each person carried off 34 cases of beer.....no mean feat when most were on motorcycles or walking.

Damrongsak Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I applaud the passers-by who took it upon themselves to avoid a potential environmental disaster and get the demon alcohol off the street. Chai Yo! Meanwhile, that 7-11 is going to have to explain why sales of alcoholic beverages were way down that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BestB Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 So if people did not steal all the cans. Would logistics company pick all up, repackage and still deliver damaged cans? Or what would have happened? Gone back to recycling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve73 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 All these good Samaritans clearing the rubbish & debris from an accident. I'm sure they would have emptied the contents somehow, and then recycled the empty can in the appropriate manner. Well don't to them all. The supplier/transporter should be charged for causing a potential environmental catastrophe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaiyen Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 The damaged cans would be the property of the insurance company who would have to pay to remove them and would have dumped them in a hole or landfill. The villagers cleaned up the mess for free and recycled the beer and the cans. They should be applauded for their good work ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
