More than 1,200 job vacancies were available at the event, where people seeking work and potential employers could discuss job opportunities with each other in person, explained Santi Nantasuwan, Chief of the Phuket Provincial Employment Office (PPEO).

 

The aim of the event was to accelerate the [economic] recovery, to stimulate the local economy and promote employment in the area, Mr Santi said.

Scores? Multiples of 20 turned up for 1,200 jobs?  Things are clearly not as bad as we thought.

The food lines are a direct reflection of a lot of locals in Phuket, they are a very entitled race of people. They expect big money for minimum output and complete lack of customer service.
