While I think it is sometimes OK to be critical on local issues, one should carefully think before opening once mouth as it often is just prejudice and cultural ignorance.

This is so true, unfortunately!

I cannot count the times I’ve seen expats in the train loud, disrespectful, laughing and criticizing the local customs and far worse things that I cannot bring myself to write!

Oh, I wanted to duck and hide in embarrassment *for them*!

I think many of us will relate to your Expats Behaving Badly series (sadly)!.
