Still struggling with the concept of 'expectations' mate, your in education aren't you
I've said enough times just because I do not complain about things on a daily basis, does not mean they do not annoy or bother me, or disrupt our life a little bit. But the way I look at it
everything that has ever been raised as the latest 'Thailand-only' disaster to strike us... was already in existence loooong before we chose to make the place our home. So we should have
expected it to happen if we'd bothered to research the country we were moving our families too, not that I bothered too mind. It's alright to point the negatives out, say how wrong they are and propose positive 'solutions'. But the whining on about 'this can only happen in Thailand', 'they're so backward', 'their culture is all wrong' etc etc just highlights our own shortcomings and inadequacies. In a nut-shell we look like whining stresscases, no wonder Thais look at us strangely at the steam starts seeping out of our ears... before they smile politely, look away and mutter to themselves... 'pfff, yeah whatever mate'
apologies

The article unfortunately does not give enough details of categories used and other factors considered. Anyway, they say the full results will be published in November and maybe then we'll get a better understanding. Pete
