None whatsoever, Jose, and I wrote to John, privately, to answer that.
But since the discussion is still on the list, I'd like to add
something, which I already told John:
The only reason child sex trade in Thailand is known about is that the
Thai authorities are doing something about it and jail pedophiles,
nationals or foreigners - something not all countries have the guts to
do. Thailand is a beautiful country with very friendly people. Their
country shouldn't be associated with this infamous trade.
I know about it because my wife and I are contributors to a Norwegian
association (translated to "Save the Children") that, among other
things, works for preventing child sex trade in underdeveloped
countries and we are informed about the progress done in Thailand. We
feel our contribution is worth every penny of it.
Nobody is "sleeping with the dogs" by holidaying in Thailand, John!
After the Tsunami disaster, nearly two years ago, the Thai people
helped Scandinavian tourists before their own. While I lost a very good
friend in the disaster, I will always be grateful to the Thai people
for their kindness and helpfulness in a difficult moment.
Cheers,
Michel
