Halex ?

[cheshiremusicman]

Does anybody know what has happened to the 'Halex' business in Hua-Hin. The front was a shuttered up when I went past the other day and the phone is no longer ringing.

Seemed like a very thriving business from my dealings with them over the past 3 years!

The shop has been closed for some days now and someone on the local forum actually reported that a lorry pulled up the other day and loaded all inventories. The owner, Alex, has not been seen since.

It is a pity that Halex has closed down as it was a very good shop with a good wine selection and excellent service.

One of his long time friends and customers told me that the owner just vanished a little over a week ago. As the shop owed money to it's distributors, the authorities confiscated the stock and the place was closed down. The accounts are being sorted out now and unless the owner turns up I guess it's gone for good.

What a great pity! The business 'seemed' to be booming and as you rightly said the service was excellent.

Oh well, will just have to buy the booze from somewhere else. Pity for all the nice people who worked for them - another group of Thais who have lost their jobs - sad.

Yes, that is one of the worst things about it. He had a lot of long time, loyal, hard working Thai employees...

Anyone know what happened to this crook, he left his partner right in it, Austrian German, always gave it the big I am, used to see him collecting money in his littler fat greasy hand.

Hope he gets what he desrve's.

No one seems to know where he is... he's left Hua Hin for sure.

They will think all Foriegners the same, unfortunately. Always thought he was a slimey fat Austrian/German <deleted>.
