Popular Post webfact Posted September 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 23, 2020 Luxury Phuket hotel hit by 1-star rating after owner criticises pro-democracy leader By The Nation The luxury Sri Panwa resort has had three stars knocked off its Google rating after owner Vorasit Issara called for pro-democracy leader Panusaya Sithijirawattanakul to be jailed. Supporters of the pro-democracy movement responded by posting 1-star reviews of Vorasit’s Phuket hotel along with messages complaining about the management and owner. They also encouraged people to avoid the hotel, bringing the average rating down to 1.8 stars from its previous 4-star-plus level. Meanwhile, Tripadvisor has suspended its rating of Sri Panwa after being bombarded with negative reviews. “Due to a recent event that has attracted media attention and has caused an influx of review submissions that do not describe a first-hand experience, we have temporarily suspended publishing new reviews for this listing," Tripadvisor announced on the Sri Panwa page. The hotel appears to be still open for bookings. However, Vorasit said he had decided to cancel his Baba Beach Club Takeover BEAM 2020 party in Bangkok’s Thonglor district after someone threatened to destroy the event.

Baerboxer Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Another example of why you can't trust the ratings on these type of websites. Their downgrades are purely politically motivated. As they are clearly intended to harm the business, wonder if they'll get sued? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrTuner Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) A bit childish, all it does is render the Google and TripAdvisor rating system useless.

They are already suing the protestor who made the call the action. Theres also a case on Koh Chang whereby someone (a farang!) who gave a bad review on trip advisor is being sued as well. Thailands defamation laws are just part of the oppression system. They will prod the Prai to a point of no return sooner or later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
