When working in Indo. I honed my "spot-the-scam" radar when writing specs. for equipment.
On a side note, any of you guys remember back in around 2006 ish, that the price of glutenous rice went up around 50%, So, on holiday in northern Thailand i asked the farmers that actually produced the rice, They did not get one fucking cent more for their harvest. All the fucking money went to the brokers and traders.
