Re: so much wrong here...
Well, it gets kinda worse because you also managed to force that system on Thailand where they use 240V for which this system is REALLY not suited (not to mention the usual challenges for insulation in the tropics, heat deterioration and moisture).
There's nothing quite like a cheap plug socket in a cheap guesthouse in Asia to really make you worried about electricity. They fall out, you turn round and they have half exposed their pins seemingly at random for no reason (well I assume no reason, they may actually be out to get you), the wiring looks like they have decided to use doorbell wire, the incoming power lines were installed by Heath Robinson, shonky would be a complimentary standard.
I've felt less wary facing venomous snakes than the electrics in some places I have stayed.
