Just put in the new contract that they have to buy insurance.
I don't know how much it would cost for a business. My house insurance costs about 5K/year. So not that expensive.
rotten egg smell is caused by hydrogen sulfide.
I get it in my outdoor hose reels. It goes away after a couple of minutes when the water is flushed from the hose.

The original article does say police are checking security cameras.

Since they are saying it is the hotels system that is compromised I'm not sure this would help.
Best thing to do is never use links sent to you. Also don't give info to people calling you. Specially those claiming something will happen if you don't give them your info.
There are a lot of Filipino english teachers in public schools here. They can have quite an accent. So that may be some of the reason for it.
I sometimes feel Thai's purposefully don't understand me when I am speaking Thai. I know my Thai is not the greatest and I mess up tones. But I think sometimes it is because when I speak thai they are listening for english and just hear gibberish.
