Think of all the rich Thai's who already own property in London!

At least that's a positive start from the new Governor.

It would be fine if you could actually see something happening here. There should be solar panels everywhere in the North, we have months of sunshine, but there isn't, it's the exception rather than the rule.

What they mean is 80% load factor on the services they are running. It does not mean 80% of what it was prior Covid. There are rows of parked Thai aircraft at Swampy.

All sounds good, however, nothing will happen. It's just the way things are here.

I know it's off topic, but please, why on earth are they all wearing masks outdoors?

These imbeciles have no concept of what is happening in the outside world, it's sad that the general level of education seems to prohibit the understanding of the way the world operates. They churn out on what seems to be a daily basis, statistics which are meaningless.

Grasping at straws on a no news day.

If they want to attract retired people from Europe, who actually spend reasonable amounts of money, and would like to stay 4 or 5 months, during winter in Europe, then it would be a good idea to look at the insane visa requirements. Totally unnecessary and intrusive requirements. Most take one look and go elsewhere.

I came through Suvarnabhumi yesterday afternoon and was surprised at how quiet it was. Rows of Thai Airways aircraft parked up. Most of the gates empty, the domestic departures moved to using up areas formally Emirates were using. There's a long way to go to it being called busy.

I usually enjoy reading Rooster's take on Thai life, however, today's just came across as a rant, as if you were deliberately trying to stir things up. Though for the life of me I don't understand the totally unnecessary rubbish you wrote about the Queen's funeral. Clearly you don't understand the ceremony behind the funeral. What a sad person you are.

Amazing !!!!!!!

I suspect the decision has already been made, hence his comments. Just pausing to make it look correct.

You have to feel sorry for the Thai's, Prawit is surely the worst possible PM. Unless the Thai nation reacts and chucks this lot out, apathy will allow just let them get away with it.

Thought this was a joke, how on earth would anyone choose any of them. Just shows what a waste of time Thai politics is.

Once the floods of tourists from China resume, it will be back to where we were before Covid. Prices will rise accordingly. Make the comparison then. Lifestyle counts for a great deal, and I'm far more comfortable in the UK now, returning for holiday's only.

That article is totally pointless.

I hate to put a damper of their enthusiasm, but in Europe there is a cost of living issue, a war in Ukraine which is impacting the world directly or indirectly. Tourism is not high on the list when family's are struggling.

Until the Thai people take control themselves, I see nothing happening in the foreseeable future. Thailand has been going backwards for eight years now, and will continue whilst it is run for the benefit of the elite.

It is Thailand's loss that they make Tourist visa's so difficult to get.

You can go to any Mall car park entrance, and watch the cars/trucks coming in. I guarantee 2/3rds are not wearing seat belts. There is no interest in enforcement. So this is just a waste of time, but guess it looks good.

Simplified tourist visa's would be far more beneficial than all twaddle they spout. The requirements for a longer tourist visa are ridiculous. People will look, and move on to another country. TAT is beyond stupid.

I really is amazing that he should even be considered as PM. Clearly ability doesn't count for much.

They make the rules about copying all documents, because it seemed like a good idea at the time. Then computers came along. However, by this time the official who had authorized the copying had died. as no one can question this official it's left as it is.

It is truly amazing the stupidity of those who purport to run this country, announcements of this nature show the total ignorance they have of the rest of the world. We have a war in Europe, and the after effects of Covid making a huge impact in the world. It is really sad that the ordinary people of Thailand are being led backwards.
