Airport housekeeper returns 500,000 Baht to passenger

Phuket International Airport Director, Petch Chancharoen, gave an award to Duangtawan Chuayseng, one of the housekeeping outsource staff from Phuket Inter Chemical Company today (March 2) for returning 500,000 Baht in cash to a Chinese passenger, Li Xiaofei.

The cleaner was working at the mens toilet on the 3rd floor of the international terminal and found a wallet with a lot of bank notes, both Thai Baht and Yuan, with a combined value of 500,000 Baht. She reported it to the security officer to make an announcement and find the owner of the wallet.

Li Xiaofei showed up with his passport, which matched with his ID card in the wallet, and correctly specified the details of what was in the missing wallet.

After a week of bad news coming out of the Phuket International Airport, a big thanks and wais to Duangtawan Chuayseng for her honesty and good citizenship.
