The gofundme page says this....

The hospital have informed us that due to the poor condition of the roads in Thailand and the severity of his injuries, he must be transferred by helicopter, at a cost of Thai Bhat 200,000 (£4,500), and to commence treatment the cost will be over Thai Bhat 1,000,000 (£23,000).


Poor road condition? Hmmmm....

The hospital are crooks!
