A Chon Buri restaurant owner, Pratchaya Prayad, also known as Chef Maggie, was praised for returning a lost wallet in Hong Kong. The wallet contained credit cards, documents, and a large amount of cash worth over 10 million baht. Pratchaya found the wallet near a roadside smoking area and decided to look for its owner. He and his group tried to locate the owner by checking a photo inside the wallet and searching nearby venues. After several hours without success, they went to Tsim Sha Tsui Police Station. A young Hong Kong businessman arrived to report the wallet missing, and police confirmed it was the same one Pratchaya had handed in. Pratchaya returned the wallet directly to the owner, who was relieved and grateful. The owner asked where Pratchaya was from, and he replied that he was Thai and visiting Hong Kong from Thailand. Hong Kong police praised Thai people for their kindness, and the wallet’s owner thanked Pratchaya for returning the valuables. Pratchaya said Thai people are known for helping others wherever they travel and that anyone who finds valuables while traveling should return them to their owner to protect Thailand’s reputation. This story highlights the kindness and honesty of Thai people, which is an important aspect to consider for Phuket buyers who value a community that looks out for one another.
