MacChine Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I think the Jet Ski operators on Patong are perfect Brand Ambassadors- finally some honesty about the state of Phuket. This is a good opportunity to show how PW elaborates the story. The official is the head of the passport office reports TPN, whereas PW has her as "a senior Thai official." Either way her remarks sum up Thailand's attitude toward foreigners- "give us the money and shut up about it, farang!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NamKangMan Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Don't let go, Larry. The more you push, the deeper they're putting themselves in it.. If only Larry was Chinese, then they might listen to him. :) :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songhua Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 A seminar was held. Everybody wai'd. The Governor spoke about fairness and the value of the tourist. Everybody smiled. Everybody nodded. ................... then they went back out the next morning and continued to do the same thing. Thainess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
