So the next time I am in the US (which I am not looking forward), am I going to use South East Asia as a benchmark for the above ? Yippee I don't have to tip !!!!!!
I never forget where I am and the world goes beyond the U.S. and Asia.
As a reminder, this is the FT Starwood section, a U.S. chain of hotels. When you stay at one of their properties or hotels, that they run, there is so much more that they export, than the small recognitions from some U.S. (or from other parts of the world) guests to the staff.
I also try to avoid to judge people, especially the ones that I do not know.
