300b a day X 26 working days a month =7800b wage a month.

Are there actually many Thais anyway that don't make 7800b a month?

I am really asking, is this only going to effect 10% of the working population anyway kind of thing?

With a large % increase in wages in some regions promised within 90 days, the only out come can be out of control inflation, be it a spike or bubble, but once prices go up, they tend not to come down.

Any ideas as how the Thai family can profit from out of control inflation that may soon be on them? Got to be some way?

High inflation = higher interest rates = normally a stronger currency = not good for me

I am thinking, maybe can buy cheap tablets, we have already been approached for a loan promising us 3 tablets from her kids when they come for 2000b each.

I am thinking, of setting up a company to cash in on the Gov policy of,

"Pheu Thai-led government would subsidise operations of Thai firms in other countries where labour is cheap." Pheu Thai secretary-general Jaruphong Ruengsuwan said.

This would = more Thai unemployment.

There may be some nice Thai Gov hand outs to set up shop or relocate to Cambodia, then maybe an idea is to set up a Employment agency for the Thai unemployed people to get work in Cambodia, at least it's a job right. Source: http://www.thaivisa....licy-jaruphong/

Any other legal ideas?

I can not on TOT & CAT but can on 3BB, AIS 3G &( 3 months ago on TRUE) That's my real life experience.

Anyone who thinks Thailand is not backwards is living in their own fantastic dream.

So, TOT ban torenets, go to CAT and now they have stopped as well. not like I am a big user, less than 15gigs a month.

This Thailand country really is trying hard to drive away people.

Thankyou

A Sister in Law want to start up a beauty shop, hair dresser etc. As if there are not enough around already!! to add to the many motorbike repair shops and coffee shops, anyway, is there any law that says she or a staff NEEDS a certificate in beauty or hairdressing? SIL says no, but she is clue less on things like this.

We are involved as wifie would be partner, read the backer. It would be good for wifie as well, get her out of the house & busy

Found a good shop for rent which is very cheap. I just demand that everything is proper and above board.

Any experience in this?

Of course there are Temples everywhere, but what about these temple schools?

It is the first I have heard of them, thanks.

Building a house, and the builders want to use wooden beams up in the roof support. I have normally seen C section used, I do admit it is 400m form the sea and all other building I have seen around us also have wood.

Went to Global and found 2 products to beat white ants,

Painted on wood, the active chemical is Bifenthrin, (one retail product also uses this underground)

Put into ground active chemical is Cypermethrin

Anyone have experience with these?

Do they work ?

Thanks for the idea's, still really not sure what to do.

My answer is for the mum to look after him and the good Christian people let her be a mum, not a recruiter. We have done all we can that is responsible.

Temple, serous, do they teach schooling?

I have a 15you Nephew who both separated parents cant or don't want to look after him, dad is in a dysfunctional new relationship and mum, well the good Mr Jesus has mum in some kind devotion that she shall not care for her son, all his grand parents have kicked him out, and 2 others attempts including the bible bashers boyfriend who she happily booms booms kicked him out as well, big family pressure for him to come live with us, we "trailed" it over the last Sonkran holidays, it was a complete fail, caused us massive problems, but we still looked after him for some 3 months.

He is honestly not all screwed up yet, a very lonely confused boy, but it s not up to me to take him on, I have enough problems with bloody family

I heard somewhere, and I can not remember where dam_n it, that the army has a school, would be perfect for him.

Any suggestion?

Gets better, wife has same AIS 12Call plan as me, just different number. Had 3 calls all 100% over the last hour.

Her sim in my phone works good, my sim in any phone works, but not for inbound Skype calls, it rings but no connection when answered.

Gezz this place shits me, why cant we just have normal <deleted>*%ing 3G like an other 3rd world messed up country and run an iPhone or a computer.

I have the world wide package with skype, that includes Thai cell / mobile phones.

I have my Skype call FWD set to my Thai number that is in Thailand. AIS sim.

It says, "your call is being diverted free of charge - please wait"

Sometimes my phone rings and when I anser there is no connection, many times it doesn't even ring.

Anyone else have the same issue?

Thanks for your input on this.

So basically, you don't need line of sight to low levels in the East any more, you can aim overheat to IS 7/10.

This is a step FWD at least.

The Democrats also have a policy for national reconciliation but will not grant amnesties to anyone who commits crimes and corruption, he said.

Only political cases will get amnesty, he said.

So what the heck is a Political Amnesty for then ??? Amazing Thailand.

Troubles ahead I feel, if only this election would help things to stop this downward spiral. Many good points int he article though, be it one sided

Talking Dick, Pay, PlayPal = Only can be one place, Pattaya

Thai ebay is sanook . com I believe,

So Jsat, these 3 channels you talk about, on 7 /10 right over our heads, is one of these the normal Aust network?

What are the 3 channels?

Also, do you have any latest gossip on a Fox takeover and bring sport back. What will be left at the end of AFL season, just some mighty awesome V8's only.

"Voters are warned against wearing shirts showing any candidacy number into polling stations, including jerseys of their favourite soccer team that carry the number of their favourite player."

LOL

making the roads safer = responsibly = Amazing Thailand

Will never happen.

As Australia is located on the opposite side of the equator, there are no direct satellites signals available in Thailand on the high band like they use in Australia. However the ABC runs the Australia Network 24 hours a day on the low band so it is not effected by the rain now on 3 different satellites.

There are no other direct satellite signals at this time available to us in Thailand.

You can now choose the satellite to watch this channel

IS8 & IS5 BBC World, MTV ++

IS 7/10 Need card for 3 channels

& IS8 (Orignal)

Anyone know if the first 2 sats are also low in the east?

The oragne trees I have seen for sale recently I believe are those little ones more like mandarins.

I have never seen Navels etc except imported fruit form USA and Aust !!!!

Can anyone help with this?

I have seen some decent developments around Sri Archa, Worth checking out. As a general comment, a car you make your life much easier.

Chut-A-Chuck market in Chonburi City in a pet shop !!!!! Saw them so I bought them all !!!! Had to many regrets not getting something when I see it............mai-me !

I can't remember exactly, I didn't take much notice, I think the little all black ones were in a half kilo bag for 40b or it could have been 30b. Sold as Parrot food.

Although very similar, but not income tax. We are looking at some land, the chap inherited it from his farther 10 years ago but never changed over the chanote, he is doing that this week, then plans to sell the plot. He wants us to pay the taxes of the sale to us. Would the land office consider that he owned the property for less than one year for the with-holding tax etc that become less over time?

Thanks
