The topic only being about taxis and motorbike taxis was only in your head

You sure? Isn't the topic about Pattaya public servant pleading with taxi drivers NOT to rip off customers in Pattaya. 

 

It's not really in my head. 

 

Topic is not 10 Baht bus routes. Topic is taxis drivers routinely ripping off customers in Pattaya. Taxi in Pattaya won't give you a ride for less than 200 Baht. But somehow you bypass this, and reply "just take a Baht bus!"

 

Who's talking about set routes, and 10 Baht fare in this article? Trust me, just trust me, article is about Pattaya taxi drivers NOT using a meter, something that is against the law. Do you really not get that?

    " but we can ('t) help ourselves " came the resounding reply .. 

  • Yeah right.. like this is going to help.. a voice in wilderness it is.. it is an inherited traits in humans to cheat and gauge others regardless of race or religions, some more that others, and Thaila

  • Yes but at least it has been said the guy names the problem so instead of burning him down applaud him for what he is saying. Some people have to be negative about Thais all the time.

Only partly correct.

Is totally relevant to the topic as an alternative to getting ripped by a taxi driver.

Er, no, I don't think so.

You're now going off-topic

What you fail to understand is that the article asks all operators offering services to tourists not to rip them off with high pricing. It could equally apply to bar girls as to taxi drivers.

I eagerly await Khun Ekkasit Ngampichet's guidelines on fair prices to be applied to the former.

Is there a recording of this interview somewhere?
It can be useful in the shops, at the market , national park ... basically everywhere

 

"Before you tell me the price, watch this video" ????
