Fanatical Thailand Santa Loses All
Andre Machielsen, dubbed Father Christmas by Andrew Drummond, loses Master Safety Enterprises
Many Pattaya Chonburi Thailand readers have written to us that the infamous Father Christmas has closed his Master Safety Enterprises business that was operating part time on Pattaya Tai Road from a small office.
Apparently there were no takers at the $350,000 (12 million baht) asking price for his rented office, "good name"and customer list of those who had not already fired him for poor service.Business dried up after many customers stopped using his sporadic security service of monitoring alarms and installations of CCTV systems and burglar alarms all ended when locals realized Andre was buying all of his supplies from local Tuk Com IT Center and marking up the hardware by 500%.
As Machielsen bragged about his Thai citizenship some people realized he had gone off the rails. Andre is not and can not be Thai because of several factors we won't go into here. But he is Dutch.
