Hi Ted88888,you are correct in what you say from a well behaved buisiness mans point of view,the problem is that so many go to Thailand on a much lower strata than yourself.I made my points to these people,but some-one once posted that good advise is mostly ignored,but that is not a reason to not give it.I kept my nose clean also and things went comparatively well for me,but i felt the need to bring to light some of the experiences of the more rambunkcious visitors and expats,there was no intent to offend or hurt the feelings of people such as yourself.Colin
