Where does this data come from?

Working thais have come home from oversead, so lost income at the village level.

Millions of thais out of work, so household income .

But still, 100,000,000 thais will be taking holidays, touring around Thailand??

I can't follow the logic trail ... ?

I think there he's confused his months. The way everyone in Bangkok scattered throughout Thailand from the bus stations last week, I believe he means 3,000 by the end of March

Only in Thailand ... (;

It seems the only places that air quality measurements are taken in Thailand are Bangkok and Chiang Mai.

So PM2.5 in these 2 places are about 100 & 168 respectively at 0800.

How terrible.

Spare a thought for Chiang Rai, with a PM2.5 of 186. Or Mae Hong Song, at 195.

I can recall only a couple of times in the last 12 months when the reading dropped below 100.

The air in northern Thailand (as well as neighboring countries too, I imagine) is the worse in the world.

Back again.

The boring part is that this fading and whitening of the pool due to calcium reacting with the gel coating is endemic.

And I am led to believe by the Manufacturer that fiberglass pools all over the world are turning white wherever the supply water is hard.

I was informed of this after the installation, of course.

Only real cure is eliminate the calcium at point of entry.

But when I bought the pool no mention was made of this problem; not by the manufacturer, or the installer, not even on any of the Blog sites like this.

I was told that fiberglass pools are the bees knees, no problems.

I just want other guys to be aware of this problem .... if you are tossing up about installing a fiberglass pool or a concrete pool in Thailand, then check the quality of your water first. If it is hard, and you are dead set on fiberglass, then install an ionizer as well to soften the water.

If your not keen on the added maintenance costs and extra time and devotion to pool upkeep, then go a saltwater concrete pool.

You'll be a happier little Vegemite, believe me.

I installed a small, bright blue fibreglass pool 12 months ago, and the colour has now faded to a white due to calcium in the water.

The manufacturer of the pool tells me this is a huge problem in Thailand, Australia, everywhere, and there seems to be no cure.

Anyone else having a problem with this?

I don't understand ... you can own a condo outright in your name. You don't need to have a company, unless you own the land the structure is built on.
If I remember correctly, 51% of the condos in the development must be owned by thai nationals, the other 49% can be owned outright by foreigners

Any thoughts on the best paying jobs for unskilled workers inThailand?

Apart from the obvious ones in bars, spare a thought for a mailhandler in the esteemed Thailand Postal Service.

How many of us have birhday cards and Christmas cards sent to us from loved ones at home, usually with a small amount of cash attached?

How many times have the cards never arrived or, if we are lucky, arrived minus any cash?

Any other good paying jobs come to mind for a conscientous Thai further himself or herself?
