Whenever I go to Spain - I need to prepare myself for their strange working hours. My colleagues come into the office late, around 10am. 1pm-4pm is "lunch and a siesta" and then they stay very late in the office until 9-10pm. Very different from my colleagues in Scandinavia - they are in at 7am...

Thanks - I do appreciate the attempt to answer anyway. I want to be you - I unfortunately wear a suit most days. :D Road side I know. They unfortunately cannot do this type of work - takes some specialization to work on a suit.

Does anyone have any recommendations on tailors that will alter suits? I'm not talking about making a new suit - but tailors willing to take on only alterations e.g. sleeve length and taking in suit jackets specifically. Most Indian shops appear to be sales fronts and not interested in...

Haha "na" not effeminate - maybe you speak to lots more women than men :D. "na" is simply used to make a command gentler. Everyone can use it. Just busy traveling. This year's been a little nuts - already hit 4 continents. I've not been in LOS since January but will be there soon. Anything...

As much as possible, I take public transport to Changi too. I can't believe how expensive taxis have become. Is uber any different? When I get to BKK I try to take public transport as well: train, bus, minivan, etc To clean up, I use disposable body wipes. You can find them in Watsons. They...

Once you're done with that time machine, can I borrow it? I need to place a bet on a certain world cup semifinal game.

From the list, I've eaten at Som Tam Nua and the place at the basement of Erawan; passed by many of the rest. The Erawan place is OK (the "boat" or nam tok noodles are their specialty), but nothing to write home about - only reason I was there was I was staying at the hotel. Som Tam Nua is...

Very sound analysis. Tharman going to call you up soon :D 30% drop year-on-year is pretty bad. GDP numbers going to be released soon, let's see. One problem with Thailand is it is getting expensive to do business there and they are struggling to define the value-add besides price. Vietnam and...

This may not be a result of the coup. More likely a result of the 2011-2 first-time car buyer scheme. It cannibalized the demand from future years as well as flooded the market with used cars from defaults.
