Report Doctors in Hot Water: Police Probe Looms Over Thaksin Case
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Don't you hear that private jet warming up. I wonder if he will take his daughter within or let her hang. The PTp will surely die if he goes to court. As with everything he overestimated the thai people they are no longer the sheep he new and loved. The country is no longer red and yellow. It's truly orange and young and educated people are watching -
Crime Russian Woman Arrested for Prostitution on Koh Phangan
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
This confuses me. IF they are protecting Thai women, then how do the Russian bars with Russian women survive on Walking Street? I really can not see them getting work permits. -

Economy Vietnam Tourism Threat Looms: Could It Overtake Thailand?
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The challenge is that Khao San is a relic much like patpong. They were great but backpackers have dwindled and what they have to offer is stale. Who wants to go to a bar and see girls shift from 1 foot to the other. Khao San is not as cheap as it was. The only reason nana flourishes is the bars in the plaza have the right idea for entertaining and there are lots of short time hotels around. -
Tourism Thailand Acts to Boost International Tourist Safety Amid Decline
kingstonkid replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The safety is simple or so it seems lately. Raise the fines and jail time for all the tourists that get drunik and break the law. Forget about worrying about their flights. Jail time of a week or a few days will make a difference, especially if these Yahoos miss their flights. It only has to happen a couple of times, and then people will start to get the message As to ladyboys on the streets gettig into fights again lock them up for a few days. -
Travel Rising Prices, Broken Systems Dim Thailand’s Tourist Charm
kingstonkid replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I stay in hotels in pattaya and bkk. Yes the price during high season is higher buti don't think 200 300 baht is an issue. 5 star hotels that lose money during low season try to make it up. However check out 5 star hotels in big cities Toronto new York and you can see the same gouging. If they're upset about dual pricing g wait until the new bus mrt rules take effect. -
No Harry was so whipped that he probably gives everything to his mommy. Any book that she tried to write would be immediately taken to court not only by the Royals and the British government but also Howie Mandel and the staff at Suits. Remember she said a lot of stuff about her time as a briefcase opening bimbo

Car manufacturers have been in a free fall for awhile it dropped 20% last year before TRUMP and the U.S> while significant is not the number 1 trading partner. If it was or is that bad why has no one gone to the U.S., or has a plan been created to solve the issue. I would think the sugar industry would be in worse positon due tonot only the tarriffs but the push against sugar drinks and sugar in food

I agree that a pool and air conditioning are a must, but I think all 3-star hotels have air conditioning. There are enough places in most cities to get a good breakfast. I think most peope choose the 5 star because they do not trust the 3 stars. I think with websites like Agoda and others that it is getting easier.

When I first came here i stayed at name hotels. The I realized that the market for hotels is not the average touris t but the dumb rich ones. There is a hotel close to Patpong that used to be a great place to stay. It was older but it still had a lot to offer swimmng pool good food fancy restaurant if you wanted it and dancing. Then the owners decided to upgrade the hotel and of course with the up grade came the upgrade inprice to move it from a 3 star to a 4 star. Same hotel same options nothing really changed except that tey thinkthey are a 4 star. Just read on teh news that it has been bought and the same hotel is going to be rated as a 4.5 star hotel. Same location same basic building. The bottom line is that as long as tourists are going to pay the high rates adn the hotels have profitable occupancy they are going to gouge people. Me I find that I can get a nice room in the 1200 a night range with the same features in a 3 star hotel. After all the only thing you need a hotel for is a place to put your stuff and lay your head at night. Really, all you need is a clean room, clean bedding, and a door that locks. anything else is just over indulging
