He loves patting himself on the back..

He pretty much spends most of his time patting himself in the front

Informative and newsworthy?  Not so much. Good thing the article was digital, otherwise a waste of ink and paper...as well as my time.

detective work at breakneck speed

Covid survival rate 99.85%

Omicron survival rate 100%

So you are suggesting all regulation and laws should be disregarded because you have some unsubstantiated claims of Omicrons survival rate? 
appears he is not the only poster child for entitlement and disregard.

Thai Justice is farcical.
The wheels of Justice in Thailand seem to only operate in reverse.

There must be some misplaced envelopes

Nice try. Please explain your methodology in determining "accuracy". Or are we just going on your say-so?

You make no sense at all. Circular reasoning is what you are employing. I simply asked you for the source of the ranked list you posted, so as to verify its veracity. You keep implying the information is now somehow mine? Are you high? Taken a blow to the head? A bit shy of a full deck?

I always flew Singapore Airlines even going back 15+ years ago, I must have taken 40 trips back and forth and always found Singapore to be the best,  even Malaysian airlines was quite good.  Thai airways food went to c_rap as did their service. 

Like EVERYTHING else in Thailand, nothing has been fixed in the last 7 years.

If you were actually interested you use the Google machine, not make a whiney, gotcha forum post... the info is out there for those who care to look. Many different lists depending on criteria and year of study. The one I picked is an "interesting" (as I said) reflection of the data, not a "definitive" ranking which requires debate.

Interesting is irrelevant if inaccurate. I asked because the list you provided does not appear accurate when juxtaposed against the other lists provided by the “Googen machine”.  But hey you keep posting whatever makes you feel good, accuracies and relevance be damned.

Interesting group of countries at the top of the wealth inequality list...

 

 

Kind of a worthless ranking without knowing the source

Regardless of his motivation/reasoning, the conclusion he has reached is the correct one. The ban on alcohol sales in hotels/restaurants is going to heap even more pain on the tourism and hospitality sectors and those that work in it.

 

It's time for a more nuanced approach. Being treated like a child by a tin pot third world Junta is not desirable for the "quality tourists" that Thailand wants to replace the CCP hordes. It was bad enough ordering an overpriced glass of white wine and having it arrive at the table lukewarm with a couple of ice cubes in it. Or a bottle of red that's only a couple of degrees away from being frozen solid. Being refused that bottle of wine altogether is not something that people enjoy while on holiday. Thailand needs to raise it's game, not ban everything.

Again… he was the first to support the junta (that you are criticizing) when they overthrew the government.

Ironic, when you consider who was at the Thonglor party that started all this.

Less ironic than it it is hypocritical 

Hua Hin hasn’t seen this much exciting tourism news since the much hyped opening of Blueport resort mall. That fizzled out pretty quickly. So they plan to redevelop and utilize the airport as an event space? We have several desolate event spaces already , all we lack are events

One wonders will it be the same type of “ decisive action” we saw in the high profile/ high public interest case of the Red Bull heir?
