I've checked with my Headmaster, and he hasn't heard of this. Few, if any, Thai schools will be prepared and/or have the cash to pay for or even subsidise return air fares. It will also make existing recruitment practices difficult.

Gotta agree.

And as this one has been flying around for a year or so....we'll see!
