Fair enough. I reckon you are very lucky then. It's never been the case for me or anyone else I've known. You are the 1st of heard of.

I am now paying Bt7 (was Bt5 but they hiked it in June). Last apartment Bt9. You say never the case well I'm saying it is because this is what I now pay. Bt7. I have a mate in BKK that has a condo. Bt21. You say never the case then prove it. I can prove I'm paying Bt7.

It works like this. Many Thais think we are all stupid. I have many examples like yours. One and not related to a single example is going to a small food shop where the food is good and you get quite a bit. Then the portion gets smaller. Then the price goes up. Then I never go back. They lose. Stupid people.

Interesting. Maybe some others on here can tell us if this is the case for them. I've been here 20 odd years and stayed in several apartments. Never the case. Always above the basic price.

Corruption is endemic here. Thailand is corrupt top to bottom. It's a way of life for those who have the power to be corrupt and hated albeit accepted by those who don't i.e. the majority.

Interesting. Taking the enemy you got into bed with to the heart of your puppeteers homeland. I'm sure lots of paid off suppoters will come out to greet you and your mates. Traitor to the people of Thailand.

Owners will charge what they like. As I said I don't know the number of rooms. Feel free to search for this yourself. Guaranteed as I said the price per unit will not be decreased for people in apartments/condos. This reduction in electricity cost per unit will be a profit for the already super rich owners.

Good ol' Thaksin populist policies. The puppeteer and the puppet.

A quick reminder that Thailand is all but a 3rd world country. Criminals are in this country from top to bottom. There are much, much bigger players than what this article is focussing on.

The CC has been directed to dismiss. The alternative would be massive street protests which would put PT at risk. Another coup and PT are finished. I expect if the nxt election is free and fair ???? PT will be gone anyway. ".... deemed as an attempt to overthrow the democratic system." The lack of a democratic system is why MFP are not in government.

Nup. Prayut brought this in. Probably never adhered to. As for all the people now paying higher electricity prices in apartments/condos because of the electricity hike this year I'm 100% certain they won't be paying lower electricity prices with the lowering of electricity prices. Very nice profit increase for the owners.

1m would just be the start. They are greedy and will take him for all he's worth. As for a new car 10 to 1 that's on the shopping list with his money.

Well I've scrolled through the 1st page. That was enough. No one mentioned pra ra. That's the biggest offender when it comes to liver fluke. Seems the OP also missed this point.

Only if it it less than a certain amout of rooms. Can't remember how many but I think it was single figures.

Who wrote the policy speach? Any guesses?

Maybe a rice pledging scheme?

Deleted post.

Fake news. The pic could be and probably is the police hospital. Would be nice to see exactly what conditions he's living incarcerated ???? in but that aint going to happen. "Neither the Royal Thai Police Hospital nor the Department of Corrections should have to explain this." Remember though he'll be treated as any other prisoner. ???? I'm sure when they actually took him to prison before his 'unfortunate health issues' he never even saw the bars of a cell. The whole thing is a farce and everyone knows it.

TIT. Corruption is endemic top to bottom. It's a way of life that all Thais know and accept because they have too. Rotten to core. Same as all of SE Asia. All at the top are corrupt and the rest of the system follows.

They'll try anything to get rid of MFP. They kept them out of their rightful position in government now it's time to get rid of them in opposition. This, however, is the action of child from a BJT MP who isn't named. WHY? If a complaint has been made it must be known who from. This fool is in government and thinks he has found a smoking gun. What a tosser.

Good. Get rid of the carpets. No one can dispute this. Why they were there in the 1st place is another question. Family contact of someone in the junta made a fortune I'm sure. Removing the carpets will also make for a more stable base for his particular trough.

Don't worry about the gang members go find the bosses. Ah! Silly comment. The bosses in China are probably your mates that fill your pockets.

What else did he vow to do? I believe not jump in bed with the enemy was one such thing. Yep! Have faith in an outright liar and a party who abandoned it's support base. Have faith in a party that put the actual winner of the election under the bus. Have faith in a traitor?

You were but you're govt. wasn't. As for never say no to the people well why should you. Just lie. You're very good at that.

Reactive not proactive. Typical.
