2 months back set-up company in BKK with aim of selling lubricant additives. Got good local Thai partners (they have been showing me evidence of transactions; but then evidence can be "created" 555+)
I pumped in THB 1 million to set-up and to "entertain" Thai officials to get things moving fast.
Last month, these officials say not enough, I pumped another THB500K and just 2 days back, these guys asking for THB 2 million! Great appetite huh?
I have asked my Thai partners to cut loss and call it a day.
Hope none of Bros here will be held to ransom after they read my case here.
OMG..bro..hope you are able to recover some.....
Sorry to hear that and thanks for sharing....
I'm also been played out by some thai partners before......luckily not $$$ damage done but wasted a lot of my time in talking with them.
Very hard to find a trustworthy buz partner unless you personally know the person very well enough. Guess this apply everywhere.
