Here in Bangkok AM/PM is becoming fasionable.
And messing up peoples timing!

Officially Thailand uses the 24 hour system. But you see signs on restaurants catering tourists with signs like:
Open: 10.00 AM - 10.00 PM. How chic!

Total nonsense! It should be 10:00-22:00

But the locals think it is trendy and international to use the confusing and dated AM/PM system.

Case in point. My LG monitor lower right hand: 9:42

My NOKIA mobile/cell phone: 09:42

How many of you "AA" users know what AM/PM means - since you use it all the time! Please let me know.

Please don't forget the (:)
