Hotel Fire Near Khao San Road Leaves 3 Dead, Many Rescued From Roof
NemoH replied to Georgealbert's topic in Bangkok News
Sigh … again the Thai classic - you see sprinkler systems everywhere but you need to ask if the water is turned on for the sprinkler system.. they never learn .. I always wondered how expensive turning on water for sprinklers will cost .. remember Centralworld fire …. All water turned off -

Thai Senate Approves Landmark Change to Child Discipline Law
NemoH replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Here comes the big big government intruding into family matters..🤣 controlling discipline n parent’s role - all done in the name of protecting you and the child … another step towards loosening/destroying the fabric of family n giving rise to family disputes over way of managing children n family ….worse of all - with a deliberately vague n uncertain law. -
Massage Parlour Visits Turn Fatal: Singaporean Tourist and Thai Singer Die
NemoH replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Too many new masseuse from all walks of life … most of these cannot find any other work …. But new or old, I find many masseuse training is seriously suspect nowadays. So, I also do not let anyone touch my neck for massage - having had prior bad experiences with such massage that left me in unexplained pain which eventually went away… no doubt neck massages are life threatening…. -

Grounded: Thai AirAsia denies ticket fraud, blames airline app
NemoH replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Air Asia is now very badly managed. Just travelled on their carrier but the ticket buying was a chore - their website is lagging and non responsive. And many times need to repeat the order… looks like a hack job to me … I even feedback to them but nothing happens …. With this news ..it is looking like a their site is hacked. -

For years I have wondered why Thailand had not taken any serious effort in doing this… If you look at locations, Thailand is better located than Singapore in that within a 2-3 hour flight range, Thailand connects with more countries or cities than Singapore. The fight is in Thailand favour - but the Thais need to step up effort in system facilities and infrastructures. Strange that Singapore Changi airport has always been no.1. Surprisingly, Changi Airport has no direct dedicated speed train or public bus connectivity into the city and it takes 45 min into the city by taxi n more than 1 hour by a transit rail which stops at more than 15-20 stops. Compare this alone with Hong Kong n Thailand, Singapore Changi fails.

Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) Success Faces an Uncertain Future
NemoH replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Yep .. they are forming the new tax group which Thai income tax department hopes to tax on… other than the work permit holders… whilst it is harder to tax the residents on other visa type unless these residents make a self declaration. -
Phuket’s new tourism tax won’t affect foreign residents or workers
NemoH replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Hahaha.. I love to be optimistic but I don’t think the Thai system n process is designed to be smart enough to distinguish who holds exempted visas..🤣🤣🤣… Firstly there are so many different visa types which are varied n changed upon whim n fancies of different Thai governments over different period of time ….and which varies in application 🤣🤣. Next -The easiest mode of collection will likely be built into the air tickets … all other modes will be interruptive. So how can such system distinguish - unless Thai government spends money to modify the system.🤣🤣 In any event, another money grab by the Thaksin government. There will be more … -
Thailand pumps the brakes on private sector traffic perks
NemoH replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Obsessive greed. Money grabbing again. Thaksin government is all about taking money from the ordinary man. Just look at London n Singapore. It is just making payment for a problem that comes with car usage n ownership. Another scam like paying money to ensure that there are no pollution. For this reason I respect the Hong Kong government who had for decades resisted n refused to implement what the Singapore n Uk government did. -
Bangkok Governor Supports Congestion Charge to Curb Traffic
NemoH replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
It will never be traffic free or less traffic. It is just a money grab.. just look at Singapore - there are now so many entries into the cities, suburb, highways .. and yet there are jams bumper to bumper traffic every day at peak hour .. it started on the premise to free the city of traffic but now it’s in everywhere .. then look at London - need I say more .. it will just increase government coffers .. sadly .. it’s like believing that by paying carbon tax and expect no more monsoons, hurricanes n typhoons next year 🤣🤣🤣 -
Foreign Tour Operators Flood Phuket, Taking Jobs from Locals
NemoH replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Sad this is what you get… the earlier residents migrating to Thailand are all into spending money in Thailand .. but when you open up borders n prostitute yourself to all people .. then you will get the worker class migrating into Thailand to earn money within your land and take advantage of all your resources from healthcare to childcare to transport n you will end up sponsoring a lot of social spendings to cater to this second group of people coming into your country …inflating all prices for your population..this will be what open migration does. Social spending to cater to large number of residents who will tax all your current resources … look at Singapore whose population grew from 4m to now 6m and all social structure is teetering on over use n breakdowns …,So it’s a penny wise pound foolish policy. Short term gains but long term pain … -

Don’t kill the golden goose! Tax reforms may drive away expats
NemoH replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The problem is that the Thai government have never cherished or respected this golden goose. Expats are a silent minority in Thailand that is totally ignored by Thai government except when it comes to taking money from us.. we are discriminated against in pricing, enjoy no benefits as citizens but yet we directly n loyally support the entire Thai economy with our consistent spendings from Bangkok to Issan. By shrinking Expat spendings, the whole Thai economy will now have to depend on the whimsical, seasonal and unpredictable tourism where all other countries will be competing with them. This tax will be the government ‘robbing’ from the very same support from which Thai economy gets its support and the ultimate real losers will be the Thai economy n the Thai common folks. The immediate glee n greed for this tax will bring long term repercussions spread to the entire Thai economy. At the end of the day, it’s just another transfer of wealth n robbing from the spendings to be earned by the Thai common folks to the government.- 421 replies
