I'm obviously not very good at economics. The way I'm seeing it is as demand has gone up so has the price. I always thought it was that with Friedman or moneterist economics when demand goes down prices go up and as demand increases prices reduce. I'm probally wrong. Last couple of times I took a domestic flight the plane was pretty much full. Prices now are similar if not more than when planes were 1/2 empty due to covid regulations.
Agree except for one thing. The closest 711 or anywhere that can accept the digital wallet payments may well be more than 4 km away which would make the Bt10,000 unuseable. Once again the thought bubble empty headed idiots have not thought this through. Guarantee you that every Thai that lives more than 4 km from where they can now use their blue cards will see this for what it is.
What shops and what stores? Must be thousands of villages that only have some mom and pop shops and a few 'restuatant' type places within a 4km radius.
So who monitors all the money handed for vote buying? Apart from that who monitors the actual election? Like last time "Thailand does not international monitors". We all know that elections in Thailand are free and fair. Just have to look at the last one.
Khon Kaen is the most affordable tourist destination in Thailand, says Agoda
Affordable destination. Sure I guess so. It's Issan. The most affordable? Probably not. Tourist destination? Definitely not.
Oh yes. Fantastic. This crap going on for a month and a bit. Saw the 1st one tonight where I am. Absolulutety hate the things. Elections, temples, etc, etc just 100% noise pollution.
Which ever way this goes I don't think it's going to be good. IMO a period of instabilty awaits and as usual the elephant in the room is the army and the senate.
