Senseless.

 

Are you suggesting there's 300 seater+ mini busses?

 

Once again, Harry, ATR 72's hold 72 passengers.  A coach bus holds around 58 passengers.  Very near Same Same.

Mini bus mentioned in story, not ATR 72's.

 

How many 72 seater mini buses have you seen?

 

Not even close to same same.

Yawn. 

 

Try to keep up, Harry. 

 

I commented on coach buses, which carry around 58 passengers, yet Somchai the bus driver, gets paid 300 baht a day, and has a licence he most likely paid a bribe to get, where as the pilot of an ATR 72 has to meet international qualification standards.

I basically pay a bribe to immigration every year.  Never had a problem. ????

I was rode in a minivan from Ko Chang to Pattaya. The driver kept texting and talking on the phone. I looked up the number of the minivan operator on the internet and sent them an sms. It was a long shot. But some time later I noticed the driver had not been on his phone for some time. I checked my phone and there it was: a message from the operator telling me they were getting in touch with the driver.

 

Later during the ride the driver had only angry looks for myself and a German elderly lady. He knew the complaint could only have come from one of us both. The other passengers were Arabs and East Europeans and those guys have a culture of never complaining about anything.
