Sometimes, tourists don’t seem to realise how entitled they are when they visit other countries.
According to a report by NextShark, CCTV footage shows a Western tourist visiting Thailand taking his anger out on a poor little 10 year-old boy.
The little boy named Abdull Seesa works as a private toilet attendant to earn extra pocket money. His job requires him to charge people 10 baht (RM1.25) to use the restroom.
The CCTV footage shows the tourist accompanied by two blonde women talking to the little boy and he can be seen turning very angry after presumably hearing about how much he had to pay to use the toilet.

Little Abdull can then be seen looking at his phone as the man approached him from behind and snatched his phone away.
The tourist then proceeded to slap him in the head after that, causing Abdull to try to run away.
However, the tourist continues to yell, push and even punch the poor little boy!
One person can be seen trying to stop the man, but he eventually ran away.

Now, the boy’s father is offering 5,000 baht (RM626.85) for information about the tourist. Sadly, the tourist has yet to be captured by authorities and is still unidentified.
The boy’s father also said,
“What kind of man does this to a ten-year-old boy?
“He would not pay 10 baht to use the toilet and attacked my son. People have to pay to use the toilet because we need to keep it clean and fix it.
“We will reward anybody who can catch the man so police can punish him.”
For now, all that is known about the tourist is that he appears to be in his 30’s or 40’s and spoke English.
We hope this man will be captured soon because he needs to answer for his unacceptable behaviour!
