" Cheapass !" Doctor rewards bus conductor who returned his lost $29,000 with two bags of candy … Sumon Matidul, a conductor of Bus No. 511, was rewarded with two bags of candy for returning a backpack filled with THB1.12 million cash (more than US29,000) to a doctor in Bangkok, Thailand last Sunday. The story that was supposed to restore faith in humanity quickly turned into internet drama, when users found out that the passenger, who works as a gynecologist, rewarded the bus conductor with only two bags of candy. Sumon Matidul, conductor of Bus No. 511 which runs on the Bangkok outskirts, said the doctor called her to apologize after the story earned media spotlight and people quickly called him a “cheapass.” The doctor’s name was not disclosed. According to Sumon, the doctor told her that the money was to pay his debts, and she personally didn’t ask for any reward and actually appreciated the candy, which she gave to her child. “I thanked him. I said ‘I have debts too, and I completely understand.’ I mean, put yourself in his shoes. I’d cry if I lost THB500,” Sumon told Amarin TV. “Even though he’s a doctor, the money was to pay his family’s debt. He said it wasn’t even enough,” she said. But Sumon’s honesty hasn’t gone unnoticed, she received a certificate from Bangkok Mass Transit Authority for her honest actions. Following the story, Thai celebrity lawyer Songkran Atchariyasap said those who return lost belongings to their owners can demand a cash compensation of 10 percent of the value of the returned goods. Or we can just do good without expecting any reward, just like Sumon. People criticized him with most calling him a “cheapass” while others are of the opinion that one shouldn’t expect monetary reward for doing a good deed. “A nice and very understanding lady, who did the right thing, because it was the right thing, and even said Thank you for the token reward. I appreciate the guy owed the money, but he would owe a hell of a lot more if it weren’t for her honesty. The family really should appreciate that and chip in to give her something a little more appropriate.” one said.

This is one of the major reason why i will never return such amount of money if i see it by mistake. Those who managed to do good are never encouraged to do more. |

Mediator97:Doing good should be enough reward. Every one expects to be rewarded for doing the right thing - just like our political leaders who expect to be praised for doing what they were elected to and are Heavily paid to do. The scripture even concurs with doing good in secret. Besides she has earned a good name for herself . |

I believe our Nigeria conductors will return it to the rightful owner

When you do someone a favour, it's no more a favour if you expect something in return. The lady, out of her good heart, returned the money to him, she could've kept it, but she didn't. Whatever the man gave her in appreciation doesn't matter. What matters is that she did the right thing and happily accepted what was given to her. Friends, a good name is better than money. |
