Brilliant Idea!!

 

We want domestic tourists to spend 882bill. All we need, is to ensure the domestic population has disposable income of 882bill, so that they can spend... 

 

drilling down; 70mill population - 882bill spend

- if 25% of the population takes part in this bonanza, thats some 50,000/tourist

- assuming 4 pax per family, thats 200,000 baht per family of disposable income for tourism.

 

Now, on to the next brilliant idea...

Where is their  money coming from. With a large percentage of the working population out of work?

I'd add a word of caution to the claims of any family that may bring a case for potential monetary compensation, especially as the family 'may' have been benefitting from the dead man's 'relationship' with the woman. 

Why did go to the house with the gun if there was no intention of robbery or harm?

I think the whole diatribe is an exaggeration.

The crucial point was his wife had a residency permit.

Seems to be the extent of responsibility , a Dr. along our soi ,4 dogs

just lets them out, they have bitten several people, the Postman

refuses to come here, after they caused him to fall off his motorbike,

paid 500 Thb  even though some people had the expense of Rabies shots.

If the owners don't/won't take responsibility, I'm told paraquat is a useful backup.

Why illegal? Thailand has not decided how to tax and monopolize it yet.

The 'Boss' doesn't want them as with alcohol so it's unlikely to change.

In the grand scheme of things no one is going to worry about an extra 500 baht to travel. Many countries already charge a fee to enter and some also have a tourist tax added to their stay. 

That's why, covid aside, those countries are seeing fewer tourists.

"New Look" meaning same old ugly lady with new make up... those guys keeps coming up with these mind boggling numbers that never ever materialized so what is the point?

Yes, Read and agree with it.

 

I think this guy Xi, is out to set himself up for a legacy and wants to be remembered and go down in history for his radical approach.

 

He also is invading everyday life of the Chinese and wants to control absolutely everything.

 

A bit like Chairman Mao without the red book!

 

Maybe Huawei will do it in a notebook or a mini computer form for him and distribute it to every kid to wave around. Brainwashing in its highest forms by completely controlling the media and ruthlessly crushing any dissent, opposition or differing opinions.

 

 

 

 

I've been saying this for almost 30 years. 

The world seems to be  sleepwalking into the future China takeover.

Some of those replies are genius !!!... 

 

The customer isn’t always right.

 

Whenever I check TripAdvisor reviews I have to ignore have the comments written by some halfwit complaining the sand is too sandy at Koh Samet, or the Burger was too tall etc, choc-chip cookies too chocolatey etc !

 

 

 

If the the vast majority of reviews received by the restaurant are positive then this could be a case of ’no publicity is bad publicity’....  

 

But... TripAdvisor reviews always need to be read with a critical eye, many are fake. 

 

This video shows how a Guy make ‘his garden shed’ (a fake restaurant) a #1 restaurant !!...

If I read tripadvisor reviews I only read the 3 star reviews. 1's and 5's tend to be too bitter, or over the top.

I hear you, we all had enough of these covid restrictions.Wait a couple of months for your trip, things with covid are improving daily ,and by that time you will have more options towards ????

I am not in Phuket, But Yes they are closed everywhere. Which was a good Idea during the Height of covid, but prohibiting having a glass of wine and a beer  with your food is IMO arcanine. 

 

That's why I decided to 'winter' in Spain's Costa del Sol. Nice warm weather, restaurants open, bottle beers from €1, bottle of wine +/- €5 and a large Gordon's and Schweppes tonic €3-5. 

It'll do me until Thailand reopens the gates.

Only when they are being dispensed.

It may  have a lot to do with Thailand's continuing use of Chinas Sinovac and Sino pharm vaccines which i can fully understand .

Plus the fact that, although fully vaccinated, you can still contract and pass on the virus.

"Announcing" something seems to be Thailand's strength.

 

And they rank well with "plans".

 

 

Where they fall flat is on "execution".

 

But yea, other than that they're brilliant.

In my opinion, not appropriate words to use.

Depends on what colour they are dying?
