    :roflmao: And they did! Good on Roy Cang for not "turning the other cheek" and then he may say, this is what happens "when you do unto others." *
    Thank Goodness it was not one of the US, Ozzie, UK or other Europeans for a change.

    * I say this as the Bethel is as we probably all know a Temperance Hotel and in the Christian belief of the Cangs have had their Good Samaritan Image and Hospitality betrayed on this occasion and lets hope it has not soured the families views on the Foreigner.

    He got hit with estafa (swindling) which I assume is based on the fraud component. I linked an article which seems to suggest that he is getting 4 - 8 years.

    I hope they went off more than Facebook posts. Digital fingerprints aren't always as they appear. I also hope someone looked into his mental health condition. Perhaps a better outcome might have been to get Singapore to pay for the damages and a plane ticket back home to get this guy some help.

    DOJ scores conviction of a Singaporean national who did a 'Dicaprio' for estafa :: Department of Justice - Republic of the Philippines :: Tel: (+632) 523 8481, (+632) 523 6826

    It still seems extreme for a 19,506 peso bill! About $500 US. And he gets 8 years!
