What is this media obsession with listing peoples ages? Is it to pad out the article to make it look longer and get paid more baht? Dear Legend, Why do you put 49 after your name...is that your age?

I think the latter was more obvious. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, no one knows exactly what happened etc. Just L.I.A & say RIP Well, if everyone took your advise this would be remembrance thread of only ‘RIP’ comments. While it is sad that this incident happened and the consequences tragic, this is still a discussion forum where discussion on such events will naturally take place - hopefully such discussion can remain polite while at the same time discussion such matters and perhaps even provide some insight and help to the rest of us to avoid such incidents in the future. One such point I’d like to make: We took our maid in the car a few years back, she didn’t know how to wear the seatbelt and managed to ’tangle’ herself up in it before we’d pulled away. I never know putting on a seatbelt could be complicated for some, one of things this episode taught me was never to underestimate the innocent ignorance of those around who’ve lacked the same opportunities I’ve had.
