    I don't know what they are smoking to come up with these money making ideas They must be getting desperate Who in their right mind would buy land and invest 40 million baht There won't be many tourists interested in this idea
  6. shackleton
    Buying mine today no problem if you reside in Thailand you will be aware of the Religious holidays and Non alcohol days No doubt Tourists will be advised by their hotel or other means

    Pays your money takes your chance I am sure the true football supporter won't mind its the game that counts Can't imagine many supporters flew to Thailand just for the game ????

    Besides the USA $ which is stronger against the Thai baht The pound is going lower against the $1.18 and 43 against the Thai baht I think it's wishful thinking on the pound sterling getting stronger against both currencies until the Government sorts out the mess of who is running the Country UK ????????

    Seems like the moral of the story is think seriously before you return to owner or as someone mentioned stick it in a letterbox Let someone else get fined or rewarded ????

    Why is it they come out with these ridiculous schemes dual pricing ect with no idea of the consequences ???? They should discuss with the Hoteliers Tourist board Meeting wise First have a idea where they all agree a strategy then put out to the Media all singing from the Hym sheet ????
  13. shackleton
    Not exactly breaking news must be plenty of homeless Thai people Who have nothing going for them drinking alcohol or having other stuff to relieve their situation ????

    What about the strategic reserve that Present Biden was going to release to provide oil on the world markets ????
  15. shackleton

    Living in Thailand you have to accept the pound at whatever rate preferable above 40 baht I don't think Tourists who are here for a shorter duration will be that worried after forking out for airfares which is probably there biggest expense then hotels
  18. shackleton
    I am sure Tourists coming to Thailand will be aware of the Dual pricing If they are first timers up to them if they to pay if regular visitors they know the score If not happy about it don't come you have a choice ????
  19. shackleton
    Why is the media following this woman around There must be more news worthy stories around
  20. shackleton
    It's up to the Thai people if they want to wear the face mask ???? Not Tourists coming on holiday telling them its wrong to Their Country their rules I will carry on wearing except when out side on the walking area Plenty of space and fresh air ????

    I would assume most Thais would be happy to see the price of oil gas ect come down in Price no matter where it came from ???? Most would not know where the Ukraine is and would not be to concerned what is going on there ????
  22. shackleton
    With the Tourism board projecting more Indians and Chinese tourists coming to Thailand both not known as big spenders???? Chinese with their morning Buffets ???? Plus the Indians sharing a coke 5 straws plus having their gold chains ???? Donated to the ladies of the night does not bode well for businesses hotels nightclubs ect
  23. shackleton

  24. shackleton
    Family connections with power and money this case will go away pretty quickly a few envelopes given out to all parties involved ????
  25. shackleton
    Yes have to agree that total of 9.3 million Tourists arriving in Thailand Probably includes all arrivals people who work live here business guys regularly flying in and out bumps the numbers up But if it keeps the Thai Tourist board Happy then why not ????
