Is it anyone else, exept TAT that have the idea that India is filled of rich people?

Of course, they want to stop at a traffic light. The problem is that they are so short that they have to look upwards and then they are dazzled by the red stop light, and see nothing. 

So a couple of month of soccer (football) will lower the tourism in Thailand? I do not belive it, and if you Thailand, believe it, the problem is easily solved, just come up with something better, that would not be very hard.

They maybe also should have mention about the thai bank account. Thai banks are provincial, meaning that if you have a bank account for instance in Bangkok bank in Chiang Mai and goes to another province and use the ATM there you have to pay a fee, even if it is not shown on the slip.

mmhhh ... I just recently went several times to BKK with the bus (from Pattaya) to get some papers organized.

 

Not one time did I have to show a passport/id to buy a bus ticket?

 

Is that a new thing?

Never have I either, this was just new to me today. As I wrote, I went to Jomtien about two weeks ago and no asking of pasport, but today, yes.

Apparently everyone buying a bus ticket has to show ID, or Passport, in case

of accident (which is not uncommon),so they know who is on the bus.

regards worgeordie 

Maybe it is as you say, but it have never happen to me before, and neve in any of the about 60 other countries I have visited.

I have checked the official Swedish figures re salaries for actors in the various "provinces" in Sweden,

their salary is NOT high at all

you would quite simply struggle to run a family with two grown ups and two kids with that salary

 

I didna bother to look for the opera bit

And I am a Swedish citizen and by that probably know more about Sweden and Swedish salary than you ever can find on the internet, so I still say that you are wrong.

She is a pawn and if the blonde was a male she would be called a child molester.  What this kid needs is a spanking.  I hate people who use kids to their own end.

Your word speak for it self. Who of the words famous people do your brain think speak by them self? And what have your comment to do with the subject?

And wellknown leftist activists

Not at all, but her mother is a wellknown opera singer and  also that she not like the far right and nationalism. Is that the same as to be a "leftivist activist"?

Why are her own finances such a mystery and why has she never had a pop at the likes of China & other real culprits?

What is the problem for you with her finances? You think that is a bigger problem than polution? About China, she have criticism them as well. but one of her main idea is to critisice those countries that have accept the UN convention on the rights of the child, and China has not.

.  So your comment just shows that you not really know what you are talking about. 

TAT and many here on TV talk about how much people from different nations spend for each day. That number is worth nothing if you not also include how long the stay is. Secondly, only idiots go to a place, wherever it is, to spend as much as possible. So  the right thing to do is not to call them (us) Sheap Charlies, instead you should think, what can we offer that make the tourist spend more and hopefully come back again. 

So maybe Sri Racha could be the next big tourist hub, selling tourist bus travel to the nearby filthy ghost town Pattaya. Warning sign over the door, inside bus. Do not go out of the bus during the tour. Rats, ghost ladyboys or ghost begger can kill you.

And within a cople of days TAT will say, no tourism is going up x %.
