Shuttler Pannawit "Tawan" Thongnuam complains about an expensive taxi ride home from Suvarnabhumi airport. Badminton player Pannawit "Tawan" Thongnuam returned to Bangkok after being knocked out of a tournament in Malaysia, only to be ripped off by a taxi driver on his ride home from Suvarnabhumi airport. The meter of my taxi went up almost every 50 metres," he lamented on his Facebook account. Pannawit, who is the boyfriend of top Thai player Ratchanok Intanon, returned to Thailand on Sunday from the 2018 Badminton Asia Team Championships in Alor Setar, Malaysia. The Thai team was ousted in the knockout stage by South Korea on Friday.
