    ยป I am having difficulty getting mail delivered from the USA-Thailand, nothing is arriving at it's intended destination. Is this a normal thing in Thailand for foreign mail to be stolen? I have read on here that the main airport in Bangkok is a hotspot of corruption and theft of luggage, is this true...

    • mastervix commented : by drake on Mon 21 Feb 2011 6:50 pm You might want to have a talk first with the mail man then the local post office. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ We have already gone that route and he has denied all culpability, if i cannot get mail outside of the capitol, I'm sunk as far as trying to do investment in Thailand. Yes computers/internet/etc are the way to go, but some things have to be hard copied deliveried. I can''t jump on a plane everytime.......so frustrated

    • mastervix commented : Thankyou all for your input on this matter, all points are well taken and i will adjust accordingly. I see a dogged correlation between lack of government investment in Thai education and a lack of government concern/culpability at play. Here in the U.S. we bend over backwards to gain foriegn investments, but basics needs such as simple quality mail service is a no-brainer. Reminds me of the line from the movie Lawrence of Arabia, as long as little minds rule, then shall always result in a little people. I read somewhere else on here about the government investing in it's people thru education to eventually bring Thailand up to par with countries such as S.Korea & Taiwan, i would encourage & embrace this idea.
