Yes, I see your point exactly .
Just sell a few bitcoin and get started . 10 million should be small change for them .
But there could be a few obstacles on the way if you tried .
All the small shops were charging 55 baht in my area until yesterday with the exception of one new shop with tiles on the floor was charging 56 .
My complaint is not with the shops but with the beverage companies protection from the government .
Never use the stuff .
Take a shower and change your clothes regular is enough to keep people moving away from you .
I remember living in Norway catching a ferry to work and the stench from the after shave forced me to move often .
I have bought 6 Daikin airconditioners in the last two years . I also get a good price from a small shop in Chiang Mai . Shop is small but have a high turnover .
I personally recommend Daikin .
They also clean the units one time for free after 12 months
I honestly believe that Thailand is doing there best to strengthen the baht to reduce the cost of oil imports .
I just wonder how much longer they can play that game .
55 baht to 57 baht is around 3.6 percent
If you have a pension that is not indexed then you can have real problems in these inflationary times we find our selves in.
Then the beer has risen more like 7 percent over a 12 month period .
Most countries have forgotten about the damage inflation can cause in the last 30 years
The logistic companies have forced the government to reduce the tax on diesel due to the rising price of imported oil . Not many countries are ready to do the same .
Makes you wonder who is running the country , big business or the government
200 a month for me.
I have always supported the local shop to buy beer.
I have no doubt I will continue to do that.
I also return the bottles . That is a little extra for the shop keeper
I am in shock after having to pay 57 baht for a beer instead of 55 baht that has been the same for some years .
I wish the politician luck with changing the law on brewing beer in Thailand .
If successful it could create more competition and invite lower prices for a overpriced product .
Education is free in some countries , yet they invariably end up with a sizable loan if they have not parents that can support them through there education period .
