the boys he has working for him a nepalese-burmese from northern burma. they originated from when the british took the gurkhas to burma.

Rainy and his wife are too of the most pleasant and educated people i have met in patong, and haved shared many good meals with them over the years.

definately not annoying indian tailors.
