Nongprue Deputy Mayor Wanchai Sanngam visits the severely injured American resident of Pattaya to wish him a speedy recovery.

Nongprue official brought a gift basket to an elderly American to compensate him for nearly being decapitated by hanging communications wires in East Pattaya.

The American, identified only as “Mark”, 73, was driving a motorbike on Soi Khao Noi when he drove through a low-hanging line, which caught him around the neck, pulling hm off the bike.



The senior citizen was recovering from his injuries, but needs to have a follow-up x-ray.

Nongprue Deputy Mayor Wanchai Sanngam visited Mark at his Sangsupa Village home, bringing him consumer products and a gift basket.



Wanchai deflected blame for the low-hanging wires, blaming them on the cable-television company and the Provincial Electricity Authority.
