Still arguing about bones?

Why don't we just meet in the middle and rename this thread as "Women, the pelvic girdle of this country" ?

I always thought they were the black holes of this part of the universe....where a more scientific approach is required to avoid being sucked in and disappear

store managers to handle these issues instead of handling it when the shit hit the fan online.

Yes the store managers have always been called to authorize exchange/refunds of bad items, they will send one of their attendants to take a replacement once the fault has been confirmed and at the same time putting the faulty item back on the shelves, ready for the next unfortunate customer, which hopefully wouldn't notice it or complain, and they couldn't care less if you are watching them while they are doing this, for them, YOU are the problem, not their actions/faulty items.......and these are the leading companies that should set the standards and give an example, just think of what the smaller ones might be capable of....

How do they get in? Aren't things like that sealed in plastic?

Lately i am getting small ants going into the sealed sugar's bags, i always check the packages before purchase and there are no visible holes....maybe they are able to perforate the plastic?...plenty of weird living things in these lands....

I fixed this late small annoyance by keeping the sugar into the fridge.

You should have bought that pack, go home take a picture and upload it on their Facebook or send an email to their customer service. Cha ching, they will be sending you free packs of pasta and gift cards. That has been the case with Thais won't got rotten frozen food and such when they posted on Thai web forums.

Bad publicity is the only way to get them to change to be honest.

Well, maybe that's how it works in "farangland", and from the news i am getting, that's changing to become more like here......in "mongoloidland", even if you say something that's without any doubts, solely the truth, they can sue you and even send you to prison because you make them "loose face", your good intentions are not even taken into consideration, is the face that really matter.....

Don't you guys think that this topic is stale, everything has been said and now it's being repeated, time to put "paid" to this topic and talk about something interesting, move on people

No i don't think so, but it all depends from the prospective you want to look at it.

Basically, at least to me, independently from the various parts involved, this topic bring up a very interesting and actual pest of our times, "indifference & greed".

The plagues of our world, not just here in Thailand, vastly depends from this sort of attitude, and if we really want to bring some changes, we should start to do something about it, rather than criticizing the only people that are actually doing something for the better, i am sure that if we start to do something together it will not take long till we start to see some improvements

Live and learn, i don't think that anyone here can say that he/she always had a perfect life and no annoyances ever happened to them.

What is fool is to call a person moved by good intentions a "fool", it's way too easy to be greedy and careless about others, and it's not really something you should be proud about, leave alone bragging about it.

If anyone wanted really to ad something useful to this, it should be to encourage such good deeds and perhaps think of something to avoid this sort of events.....so, what else can you suggest apart from not caring about anything or anyone apart from your own personal interests???

Lakegeneve is there going to be another collection for him?

Ouch, give it a break, i will take Lakegeneve's good intentions any days rather then the careless attitude showed by the most of the people that only cares about their little own world and nothing else.

Have you ever thought that if the world is in the appalling state it is right now, maybe it is because people do exactly that, only think about theirsevels and couldn't care less if you have somebody even dying next to you, f-that!

He and others contributing in helping out this other person, might have fallen victim of a "freeloader", but i am sure this have not created any major issues to him or the others that just gave a chance to the swede, this is one of the main risks while helping others, but when the situation become clear, than a different solution has to be found, too easy to just blame people whose only guilt was to help a stranger, why don't instead try to came out with a more constructive approach?

Don't just be a bunch of stingy wasps and try to beehave yourselves, you know how they say around here, no money=no honey .....

I'm with immigration on this one,

No kids would mean no extension, unless a doctors certificate of infertility produced.

Lots of pretend foreigner marriages in Thailand.

You are not siding with immigration but with a rogue office abusing his power.

What you are saying doesn't make the smallest sense, Marriage does not mean not having kids. As an american you should know English.

If you want to express suggestions on how regulations should change, write to the Immigration bureau.

Doesn't one of the most famous welsh's tunes goes like this: "Come round, you can take a piece of mine..." ???

All together now: " It happens everywhere, i haven't seen a single country of this world where you haven't got a beast coming out of a loo and try to eat you alive, everywhere is the same"....

Thanks Aristide, that was so hilarious

Tomorrow steak, i promise

Yes, that's my experience too Namdocmai, but usually the blamed item doesn't go back straight on the shelf where it came from....i don't blame the producers/importers for it, but an unspecified seller for his irresponsibility in selling it on this way, without even specify on the package how often they feeds those little moving bugs,

I was just wondering how comes than an apologist of some sort wouldn't show up yet, here we are.........

Yes it can happen, but when these things becomes a regular habit and whom bring it up is made to be the only real inconvenience , then i am afraid it's something really different from what you imagined, don't you think so?

Ok i got my answer, they don't have that model but another one that cost more than the price i am willing to sell my motorcycle for, so, i guess i will think of something else, maybe just a self made switch that will cost no more than 100 times less than the quality ones...200Bahts against 20.000B

.....every little helps......

Thailand the Hub of quality control.

Yes it must to be all about "Quality", after all, you can't get any fresher than that, they are still alive inside there!

Yes Draftvader, countless of times, what the manager/manageress will do, it's simply take another identical product and give it to you......putting back your unwanted item back on that shelf hoping for the next (unlucky) customer to possibly have a sight deficiency or something i guess....

While HQ will not even reply to you.

It's been years like that, when you mention it to the staff, they look at it and then they start doing whatever they where doing before without caring the least....

I understand we are in an underdeveloped country, but i would expect a bit more interest in basic hygiene by a company with his headquarters in UK.....

It doesn't cease to amaze me to what extremes someone will go to denies what even the law with facts have demonstrates, why don't you go and try to over rule what is not acceptable in your views?

I am sure the courts will find it at least entertaining....

What I know the land office does not allow any foreigner to register a lease over property under usufruct.

What i do know is that many land offices would not allow foreigners to register a usufruct al all, still, not all of them though and it also depends from the particular employee you talk to and also the way that particular employee feels on that particular day and time, as many many many other things in LoS.

I can't wait to see someone to post that a usufruct can't be given to a foreigner because it's a privilege reserved to thai only....ehmmm....ok, no worries, i got my (good)answers , it's all good, thank you all

Got an answer already, apparently they don't have it right now and don't even know how much does it cost, it seems that next week they will enquire with their supplier in the Netherlands.....ouch

Yes that's just what i was looking for, thanks Namdocmai!

I see they have a reseller in Bangkok (Trimarine International), now i need to find out how much they charge for it.
