What will samsung get for sponsoring the entire trip for the blogger (who is not ready to promote their products)? Blogger should have realized that "there are no free lunches". He should have said a big NO to Samsung when they were stating their conditions before the trip.
Practically after few weeks all will settle down... They should hire promoters for the work they wanted not bloggers.

And here's Samsung India's oficial statement for this issue:
"Samsung Mob!lers is a voluntary community of active Samsung mobile device users, who are offered the opportunity to participate in our marketing events across the world. At these events, all activities they undertake are on a voluntary basis. No activities are forced upon them.
We regret there was a misunderstanding between the Samsung Mob!lers coordinators and the relevant blogger, as we understand he was not sufficiently briefed on the nature of Samsung Mob!lers’ activities at IFA 2012. We have been attempting to get in touch with him.
We respect the independence of bloggers to publish their own stories."
However good (or bad) a MNC can be, Indian Managers working at top can make it worse. Many Indian Managers have wicked mentality and I have seen such people even in companies like Microsoft. So the bloggers who suffered in Germany were due to Koreans or Indians?(BTW Koreans are also very demanding people, and can be ruthless at times when getting their work done)

Common, don't start saying Indians are bad, lousy, etc, etc. just to cover up this dirty act of Samsung. Search Internet and you will realize that Samsung is more corrupt than many of hated Indian corporates. Look at the shameless response. THERE CAN NOT BE ANY JUSTIFICATION FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO CLINTON.
Makes me like Nokia all the more. I am not giving Samsung any of my money. That makes it two brands in my blacklist.Hardly makes a difference to them, but that's not the point.
well... blogger made a mistake when he believed words of some samsung marketing guy. he was told to go as a promoter instead of a reporter. instead of realizing what he was getting into, i assume, he was just excited for the trip and the chance to report the new gadgets first-hand. they got to play with new hardware before anyone else in the world and so on. he assumed that going as a promoter was just a pr thing and would not require them to do what samsung eventually asked them to do. both parties ****ed up. Nokia tries to salvage some good pr out of the whole circus.
