If someone presented me with declining forecasts like this, they'd be gone.
And what happens when they fail to meet the forecast at the end of year 1? Shut it down, or throw more money at the problem?
The Thai logic of raising the price to cover fewer sales is counterintuitive. Do they want 10,000 members at 2million baht each or 100,000 members at 200k baht? What is the objective with this card...or is it purely trying to save face and maintain the salary of a few of Thaksin's school friends?
Then again, they probably don't have enough of those electric carts at Suvarnabhumi to cater for many Elite Card holders.

What ever happened to that condo on Ruamrudee - Aetas?
I thought it had clearly violated the law, the complainant was connected to the royal family and it was ordered to come down?
Still standing.
Any update?

how much thai do you speak dlock? do you read Thai?
I speak reasonable Thai.
Do I read Thai? Yes, some.
But where are you going with this?
just generally curious. in real life i meet very few farang who speak thai at any impressive level but on thai visa i see a ton of users talking about being able to speak Thai but i never know what is their definition of speaking thai.
That's a fair point.
I would grade reasonable Thai as being able to hold a conversation on most topics with a native Thai speaker.
I have friends that speak amazing Thai in a business/legal capacity, and it makes me very envious.

to thailand 2012
if my wife did not speak fluent english i would not have gone near her.
her family speak english so why should i learn.
you can and i respect that, but dont judge others and call them stupid for not wanting to learn thai, screw the thai language, learn it for what.
you say to get respect, if they only respect me for that they can kiss my ass.
im not kissing no ass, Im aussie not thai.
Now you are just embarrassing yourself.
What does being an "Aussie" have to do with not learning Thai if you live in Thailand?
Clearly you cannot do much for yourself and are heavily reliant on your wife if you cannot speak Thai.

The "War on Rhino Horns" is a failure. Despite the millions spent by Governments, rhino horns are still easily available.
Why doesn't the Government make it available legally and tax it?
It would reduce the necessity for "rhino horn couriers" and organized street level dealers.

"We have 3 police fiends,
they all say the same thing,
IF a perp is IN YOUR HOUSE,
and you/she shoot him,
don't stop till he is dead.
AND if you do the shooting,
do NOT admit it, let the wife claim she did it." - Howto
Howto, the police gave me the exact same advice. Since then I have gotten a gun license.
However, they did add one thing. Pop a few rounds into the roof and say that you fired a few warning shots first but he kept coming...

If you don't value you or your family's life, have nothing of value and have 100% faith in mankind, then you have no need for a gun...or locks for that matter.
Me, I tick all the boxes. I have guns and pitbulls.
And I sincerely hope these bring you peace of mind.
I myself will pursue other means to achieve that goal, ultimately the only one worth striving for.
Johnny, and I guess that's what it is all about. They do bring me peace of mind.
Where I live and what I have requires I take precautions.

Civilization is a very thin and fragile veneer, just underneath the surface lurks the animal in each of us, and all it takes is the right set of circumstances for an orderly crowd to become a insane mob raging out of control.
Not any more or less true in one place or culture as opposed to another.
Wow, what an odd observation of the human condition?
First of all, in the OPs narrative there was no insane mob raging out of control.
And how often does this seething animal break loose from your thin and fragile veneer?
Finally, can you share some examples of when an orderly crowd transformed into an insane mob raging out of control? What prompted the transformation? How long did it take?
Yes.
The Thai Visa usual suspects enjoy the mob attack and getting a boot in when they can.
The OP's story was not so unbelievable.
Not saying his choices were ideal, but that's besides the point.
But the irony in this thread is quite amusing.

With all the associated risks, why not just do "Bath Salts". They are perfectly legal.
Then again, you may find yourself behind a dumpster eating the face of some homeless man the following morning.

So, only 26 people showed up huh?
Loser.

Snakeaway is down. Keeping my fingers crossed. Also taking out hedges that run under our bamboo along our front wall.
Still looking for a friendly mongoose!
...but what if the snake is already inside the perimeter and can't cross the Snakeaway to get out?

Beware
in Chiang Mai
This post is worthless.
You sound like my wife.
I've always admired people that can admit their mistakes.
I've always admired posters that can modify other people's posts to make some nonsensical connection.
Carry on.
Modify? No, these were your own words.
I didn't say words.
I said post.
Comprehension was never your strong point.

I was at the concert.
It started at 8pm and went till just after midnight - 4 hours, culminating in about 10 fireworks. It was at Carabaos's house in Baan Fon, not far from where I live. It was outdoors, so lucky the weather was good.
I like Carabao and know some of his music, but to be honest 4 hours was a bit much.
The tickets I had were 2,000baht each and we were about half way back.
It was very well organized and orderly. One of Thai Princesses was there, so there must have been 200-300 police visible and I'm sure more hidden around her.
There was no alcohol and everyone sat on their chairs most of the time. Towards the end, those that had smuggled Lao Kao in started to get their groove on.
No fights to report. Not like the concert I went to in Nakhon Sawan a few years back. That was a smackfest. It was awesome.

Why put up scaremongering posts?
Why not wait until it's verified and you can tell us something useful?
At least change the title of the post so that is meaningful.

Sounds like somebody had a good a time at the party last night......and judging from the time of the last post , maybe too good.
Huh?
My post is at 3pm in the afternoon.
What party?
I was at the Carbao concert last night.
What you talkin' about Willis?

I gave up looking for decent quality collars that were well made and would last. Most of the stuff is cheap Chinese made junk.
The last thing I need is a collar that breaks or the D-ring is not welded shut.
I ordered from the States from a lady named Heather and her website is http://restowe.com.
All her collars and leashes are made by hand, with proper buckles, d-rings and even magnets in the end of the floppy bit to keep it neat. Plenty of sizes and choice of patterns. Fast delivery and really well packaged.

Thailand is not the place to look for companies to "invest" in.
You will find plenty, but very, very few worthy of investment or time.
Just guys like you, who want to live in Pattaya and are struggling to survive.
Go to a network function and let it be known you have money to invest. See what happens.

about 250 and he pays the tolls
Never Never Ever agree to let the taxi driver pay the tolls! Always say you will pay the tolls.
I got caught by that once when I was a newbie.. Wondering why it took 5 hours to get from downtown Bangkok to Pattaya when my mate that was waiting for me said it would take 2 hours.
It was simple.. we used no toll roads!
Never pay tolls, never tell driver that before you start. Just jump into meter cab and say where you want to go. Some never bother to ask for tolls, if they do, just smile and say no and point to the meter. Please note -- the smile is MOST important....
This never happened.
The only thing that probably saved you from a spanner to the back of the head is that your tip covered the toll fees.

That's one of the Cameroonians who destroyed my marriage.
I hope he gets locked up, but I know he's going to be released soon.
Do tell.
