  1. Had a similar issue with Apple Tech support....in France many years ago...... where the jerk on the phone once was getting cheeky on an issue that I felt was under warranty....wrote a letter straight to the Attn. of a certain Mr Steve Jobs at Apple Inc,  Cupertino/USA.......... 3 weeks later I was contacted by the EU Executive Relations Office, and a local repairman came over to my place to fix the issue for free of course.????. (defective graphics card).....the point here is that the aftersales jerks are all over the world,  who think no end of themselves....jealousy perhaps ??..... because they cannot afford to buy the item for which you are claiming a warranty service.

  2. Points system worked miracles in France, but people respect the laws and the laws are honestly enforced.

     

    In Thailand, no matter how harsh the laws are, nothing will change as the supreme judgement is the Bhat in ca$H.

     

    Fight against Police corruption to decrease road deaths ... all the other steps in harsher laws are just a laughing stock as everybody knows what's going on behind the brown uniforms....

  3. CEO's all around the world are a disaster to their local economy ... Should it be the billions of US taxpayer money for AIG, Goldmann Sachs etc...or Thai Airways......these "to-big-to-fail"  giants are potential financial time bombs to their countries.

     

    Yes, these chaps generate jobs, but their greed, perks and unresponsible or lavish policies,  will regularly bring doomsday in the portfolios of the commoners.

  4. They better accept those who alread have a foreign insurance coverage.

     

    If they ignore one's foreign insurance and force a person to also take up a Thai insurane, then it is just a cheating scam and the matter would need to be taken up with the embassies (who perhaps won't give a hoot as usual), but mainly mentioned in the western social media and press.

     

    Bad times ahead maybe for foreigners and perhaps time to move or holiday  to friendly Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, India or elsewhere. ? ? ? ?

  5. Hua Hin is highly overpriced for everything, not much to do, goes to sleep with very little choice.

    Greedy and mainly spoilt merchants, dentists, beauty saloons, tailors, restaurants and real estate developpers all over who will try to rip you off at the first occasion and will not bargain very much.

     

    Jomtien is much more fun but of course like any where else in the world, don't flash your money around, be discreet, have a smile and walk away if the bar fine is to high, avoid sticking to close to foreign drunks, the ladyboys don't argue or be rude to anybody and you'll have the blast of your life.
