RIP Dirk. I have known him for a long time already and he was a down to earth person.

[Somtamnication]

One of the most arrogant men I have ever worked with. But I would never wish cancer on anyone and I hope he RIP.

[schlog]

RIP Dirk. He was one of the last real gentleman.

[eisfeld]

RIP Mr. Naumann. Contrary to Somtamnications comment, I found him never arrogant in the slightest. He was always very friendly and had an open ear. He listened when I explained some tricky situation to him and he did the right thing. He followed the spirit of the law, not the letter. I really appreciated that.

Of course he wouldn't bow before people, he was the honorary consul after all. And the attitude that some people, mostly brits, sometimes gave him was a bit inappropriate.

He will be missed.

[sebastion]

He was a very patient and understanding man who only tried to help Phuket iron out its problems which upset many powerful locals. Many times he came to the hotel in the early hours of the am to check on German citizens involved in accidents etc.

May he rest in peace.

The loss of a true advocate for farang living in Thailand and Thailand as a whole , Thailand will be lesser place due to his passing. He will be missed.

[Deli]

He was a nice man, met him only one for a few hours. Good to work with, had lot's of stories to tell.

[SOTIRIOS]

My deep sympathies and condolences to the family

[merijn]

I feel sorry for the family as he was a nice and a sincere man.

I wish i could say the same for the consul office.

[Gutenberg]

Met the guy once, unfriendly as hell. Of course not a good death, nevertheless my experience with his service was awful, including the unfriendly Thai staff.

It's the German way, he thought he was a public official belonging to the magistracy and the customers are the subjects.

But not a problem since the most Germans are ok being the submissive subject, reflected by the comments here.

I can't stand the average Brit either.

RIP Konsul Dirk Naumann
