A homeless man who handed in a designer wallet has been rewarded with the ultimate thank you - a job and a new flat.

Waralop, 44, from Thailand had the equivalent of 20p to his name and was sleeping rough when he saw a man in the distance drop his wallet.

He tried to hand the case over to the man but could not catch up with him. At that moment, the Hermes Wallet, worth £440, was in his possession.

As opposed to running off and trading it for food, he instead walked to the local police station to hand the item in, with every penny still inside.

The selfless act was not overlooked, though, when the owner discovered his hero.

Niity Pongkriangyos, 30, was elated when he found out that his wallet had been handed in. When told about the unlikely hero, he offered Waralop a job at his factory in Bangkok.

"My first reaction was, 'wow', if it was me in that position with no money I probably would have kept it," Pongkriangyos admitted. "But he was homeless and had just a few coins in his pocket and still handed it in. That shows a good, honest person. Just the kind of staff we need."

The initial offer of the equivalent of £44 soon turned into a job opportunity with accommodation and a fresh start from Waralop.

Good deed rewarded and Karma was yet again in action.
