It's Friday already and we still don't have our internet connection. The "two-weeks" time that was promised became "three-weeks" this week. Are they planning to make it four? Hmmm...
As I said on lunch time I sneaked her at the internet cafe adjacent to our school and pay 10 baht per hour. It's cheaper compared to other internet cafes outside the school premises but I can't stand their CR condition. Why can't they clean them for customers' sake? It's one reason why I stopped drinking my Fitne (my laxative herbal tea) in the morning so that I won't be forced to use the CR in here.
Enough for my complains coz it just add on to my wrinkles. The internet is uber slow this day so to entertain myself I just watch some movie clips and videos at youtube. This one is a very funny car insurance TV commercial. I won’t ruin it for you by telling you what happens, but I laughed out loud at the end.
This is a hilarious car insurance quotes spoof video, it really covers the stuff the insurance companies gets on its customers. Back in my country we can live pretty easily for month on $303. On the other hand, in law and economics, insurance is a form of risk management primarily used to hedge against the risk of a contingent, uncertain loss so whether we like it or not we need to avail insurance. I knew from a friends that an awful lot of the vehicles driving around Thailand are NOT insured, what will happen in the event of a motor accident? If the other vehicle has insurance then you may be able to claim against them. If they don’t you have to rely on your own insurance cover.
In the case of hubby, every year he paid for the compulsory motor insurance. This is the ‘sticker’ which is posted on any part of his motorbike visible for inspection. Most vehicles will have this insurance as it’s very obvious when it’s missing. We also get a Class 1 voluntary motor insurance which provides cover for all accidents, regardless whether it’s your fault or not.
In all walks of life, we get what we pay for and insurance is no different. The cheapest quotes are not always the best, so we look for value for money, good cover at a reasonable price. As far as I know there are around 70 insurance companies in Thailand and not all provide the level of service we desire. I was advised to be aware of those companies that are known to be reluctant to pay out in the event of an accident.
We plan to look for another company which provides a 24 hour English speaking hotline number and 24 hour callout service. Our broker already left abroad so we need another broker who's good in English. Why use a broker rather than going direct?... you may ask. If we go direct we will receive a quote from that company ONLY. A Broker however, will find the most suitable cover and the most competitive quotation from a selected range of companies. Also, in the event of an accident the Broker can liaise with the insurance company on our behalf, if we go direct, we'll be on your own.

Oh I didn't know that I've already said so much in the event of just watching that video. I better get going coz I still have my class. I'm hoping that we'll have our internet connection when I get back home the afternoon. Please......
