Seen on TVBS news today: Taiwanese family on a vacation in a Giethoorn, Netherlands bungalow park were cheated out of a 100 Euro deposit. The issue was the boat, available to the bungalow occupants, (supposedly) damaged before they even arrived. Conflict broke out with park attendants resulting in pushing and shoving, and (supposedly) a derogatory remark about Chinese (‘something’ 華人) was made. However, this remark is not included in the video recorded by the Taiwanese: > **[歧視？遊荷蘭度假　被渡假村人員罵「XX華人」│TVBS新聞網](https://news.tvbs.com.tw/life/992702)** > > 網路訂房訂出一肚子氣！台灣一名空少帶著父母飛往歐洲度假，透過Hotels.com訂下荷蘭羊角村獨棟小屋，4天3夜花了約1萬5000元台幣，原本網頁上標示押金35歐元，但卻飯店被強制收了100歐元，誇張的是最後1天退房時，飯店人員竟栽贓他們損壞船、沒收押金，雙方因此爆發口角，一家人當場遭到飯店人員推擠、飆罵，被趕出飯店！對此，Hotels.com客服空號，無法聯繫。 After the news spread the bungalow park has been under attack of one-star reviews… ---

I’d have preferred to hear the remark, but it seems to have been conveniently edited out. They might have a genuine complaint, but we know what the news here is all about… waiguoren = bad. ---

Say what you will about the Taiwanese, but they are not strongly known for their boating skills. Skills for potentially retrieving a $100 deposit are another story 🙂 But one never knows. ---

The owner of the boat was an idiot not to do a quick check of it with the renters like they do when you hire a car. Learning experience. ---

I lost my bond of much more than this on a car rental in NZ on holiday once. However it didn’t ever make the news in my home country of Australia? Admittedly I didn’t fit the snow chains properly. And I was driving well over their recommended speed before they snapped and put great dents and scratches all over the paintwork around the wheel arches. And I did drive for a few hundred meters before bothering to stop and check the horrible hammering sound coming from the front wheels…
