certainly not a coincidence that both people we are discussing went from washington (poorly regarded) to bangkok, and someone specifically mentioned having dealt with amanda in the past. at excelsior, which is poorly regarded here.
I don't know enough about hotel management/owner contracts to really judge, but I too was thinking that it was strange that both went from the mediocre MODC to the flagship MOBKK. Perhaps you're right on the intent. Strange to do that to one of their two flagship properties, though...
