  1. Could be the Military could fight corruption, they can get and ask for help from New Zealand,

    Denmark and Finland all the best rated no 1. Sweden number 4 and Singapore number 5.

    Thailand is among the bananna republics as number 70. Without corruption, Thailand could be much better for the workers and the farmers too.

    There are probably too many rich due to corruption. A Thai frind accept 3-4% corruption from the Yellow but not 25% from the Red. I do not

    understand corruptrion at all. The unrest started when the Thaksin family wanted amnesti for the family.

    It was not so smart, it is difficult to close it down now. Military is in many cases a better way in a short period, I do not know if they are corrupt.

  2. From a Thai friend do I understand that the Yellow only take 5% and the Red 25% corruption. It seems as Thais accept it, but only the 5%.

    The problem is that Thaksins sister in the Thai family way would giver her brother amnesty and that upset a lot of the Yellows. It seems that both Yelow and Red want the court to get a court case, with the troubel makers.

    It is dammed difficult to understand for a Scandinavian where corruption is limited and close to zero.

  3. In Bagpra and Sriracha Big C and Tesco + Tops have them but often sold out. At the golf course they only have EST so I bring my own sugar free, am diabetic.

    Orange juice is a sugar bomb. EST did probably pay for the market but they do not have a sugar free version. I can drink Zero too.

  4. I just renewed my license 5Y to 5Y, first go to immigration and get a letter of where you live, then it will take the rest of the day to get it.

    i have ony one leg so they wanted me to do a practial test, then the eye test and I got my 5 years licence valid untill I am 78 years old.

    In Chonburi and no tea money, friendly staff.

  5. There are probably a higher cost in building a condo, prices world wide are higher for apartments than for houses pr. sqm.

    As for prices look here, it is condos at Panya Resort/Crystal Bay, fair prices on a golf course at highway 3

    in Bang Pra between Sriracha and Bang Saen.

    They are normally sold for a lower price, depending on the quality. No problem with 49%.

    Normally you don´t find them for sale, just a notice in the condo entrance.

  6. For Europe EVA is a good choise, they have Premium Economi to Amsterdan to a fine price and now as a Star Member so you get your miles. Low miles for a upgrade with a EVA frequent flyer card.

    Egypt Air is what I use to Copenhagen, 2 times a week do they have their own connection to Copenhagen and their Business Class is priced just as Thai Economy, The lounge in Cairo is just terrible, staff and food in the air is fine but you can´t get any alcohol, good for the liver. 3-4 Hours wait in Cairo. Price from CPH 25% cheaper than price from BKK, do not ask why probaby decided by Muhammed.

    Try business with Emirates you are able to enter their lounge in Dubai, but sorry it is allways 120% full as all with a UAE gold card have acces.

  7. I do not understand the Condo market in Thailand. I live at Panya Resort, Crystal Bay Golf Club. There are 3 high rise buildings from 1990.

    All condoes are sold, most are empty only about 5% occupation, prices are allmost the same as when they was build/sold. You can see what is for sale/rent in the C building at www.thaigolf.dk

    Most of them are for sale, when sold, then the prices ar discounted to the 1990 prices, could be 5% higher.

    The owners do not have much money so the fight, not to pay maintenance fee, it will be paid, when they sell the condo and it takes years.

    Now they build 3 new building at Sukhumit Road "Paradiso", they will probably be sold and for speculation, there is no need for them, as there allready are plenty of empty condoes for rent or sale. Prices are so high that normal Thais are not able to rent them.

    I expect a great bubble soon and the Banks will suffer.
