Goodbye wet and cold, Hello warm and humid!

You have never taken a taxi in Bangkok or Jakarta - otherwise you wouldn't complain any more.

Does the fact I've taken a taxi somewhere or not change the fact I should complain about a taxi driver putting the lives of my kids at risk? No it doesn't, what an absurd comment. And yes I have taken a taxi in both Jakarta and Bangkok and if the OP was asking about those countries I'd tell him.

You have never worked in Thailand or China - otherwise you wouldn't complain any more.

Come down from your cultural high horse!

Well whoop-de-doo, you've worked elsewhere other than your home country and Singapore, it obviously makes you feel very important. I have never worked in Thailand or China, you are absolutely right, are they nice?

I am trying to give the OP information that they may find useful in the future. That is what was asked for. Not such a problem is it?

Anyway, to the OP, life in general is very, very good here.

Listen to Marco Polo telling you how to run your family!

Maybe I should give him some travel tips....
