nisakiman Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 What a pointless and misleading post. You will find dishonest people everywhere you go, particularly around airports. Just because there are a few bad apples doesn't mean it's a general trait. Maybe you've just been unlucky. Personally, I find Thais in general to be as honest as people in most other countries. And I've never had a problem with taxis. If they want to work on a fixed fare (quite rare, in my experience), I just get out and find another cab. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costas2008 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Why do foreigners cheat Thai Ladies? Why do foreigners, look at the Thais as inferior beings? Why so many people,bash the Thais on this Forum?......You are the prime example OP. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 It's obviously not always. I can get the same prices at Big C as anyone. But forgiving the trollishness of the OP, in general it's a fair enough question. Such opportunist overcharging when it is possible is much more part of the culture here than in the west, certainly. Like when you go to vendors, the price isn't usually marked ... opportunity. In the west the prices would be marked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mrtoad Posted January 25, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2015 The most dishonest and outright vile people I have encountered in Thailand have been bitter, failed foreigners who are trying to scratch out an existence in Thailand by any means possible.

siampolee Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 SoiBiker post # 8 Why do older people think they're the only ones with a valid visa? Because many of your ''friends'' seem to delight in creative visa use and just can't stop boasting about the ''creative use of their visa's. They ''spill'' the beans and now it is becoming apparent that Ed visa's are becoming a problem for the holders of such visa's . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Thaivisa has a rule against derogatory comments about thai people. Please do not start threads of such an offensive nature to a whole nation again or you will receive a suspension. Topic closed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
