    Barely usable as landfill...

    When your boss isn't telling you about important developments... 😆

    People in African markets will probably say: "Yuck", before buying fresh rice from Vietnam... That precious aged rice should be reserved for Pheu Thai politicians and the Shinawatra clan. Bon appetit!

    Wait, if there are already "too many tourists" this year, why would they want even more?
  5. StayinThailand2much
    How about the good old tourism scams? Any decline?
  6. StayinThailand2much
    Not to mention that 'anything' can be a suicide in the eyes of the BiB, if it suits them, incl. someone hanging from a bridge, plastic bag over the head, and hands tied behind the back...

    Yes, they really love the Chinese, we know that already! Wasn't the ED Visa scoffed at in the media not so long ago, as it was, supposedly, misused by some? But yes, if the Chinese have it, the red carpet gets rolled out...

    Wait till the IUSW gets sued for defamation in Thailand. Sex workers?? No such thing...

    New BMWs, villas, and Rolexes being ordered while we still talk about it, and Somchai Doe (of 95% 'lower class') not getting one satang of it...

    Of course they do, but this proposal has nothing to do with higher airport-costs, or tourism-industry improvements, or insurance, but is (in the latest proposal) purely a money-grab, cause there are "too many tourists", despite TAT's very frequent announcements about plans to attract like 80 million international tourists, or more.

    That's good and fair. And I will remind myself to cut one of my expenses by 300 baht to compensate, every time I travel to Thailand. 😆

    It's only a question of time till the likes of Asean Now get shut down, and YouTube, FB, and X get blocked like in big brother's country...

    Ban him for life; he dared to criticise something related to Thailand!

    "Baht Slides: Economic Impacts for Thailand" More bl**dy cheapo tourists... 🙄
  15. StayinThailand2much
    And yet, wasn't the word only a few days ago that there are 'too many tourists, and the Tourism Minister should take action'? So, why is there still a need for promotion, or do certain parties in Thailand get a cut from the promotion budget?
  16. StayinThailand2much
    It's simple, they just assumed that each tourist (all singles, obviously) spent 1,000 baht on accommodation per night, and 800 baht per day on food and beverages...

    15+ hours return (for the driver); good luck finding a taxi at Suvarnabhumi for such a trip. Of course, if you offer enough cash, you might get lucky... Probably you'd have to offer at least eight or ten thousand baht.

    I just learnt that 'Bora Bora' is a country. Wonder, whether, adding Tahiti and other islands, French Polynesia could have come close to Thailand's ranking...
  19. StayinThailand2much
    Was this sponsored by the TAT like other recent 'news' reports about Thailand as a destination?
  20. StayinThailand2much
    LOL. 'Interests' and searches mean nothing if they don't result in actual bookings... I often check out accommodations on Agoda, or tours on other websites, but only go through with the booking once in a while.
  21. StayinThailand2much
    I'm sure he brought them in when travelling here by plane... 😝
  22. StayinThailand2much
    And the TAT and government want 80 million foreign tourists, or roughly three times the number they got over the past year! Nuff said... Perhaps they should invest into infrastructure (besides the airports) for once.
  23. StayinThailand2much
    Yes, me too. Was pulled aside and questioned for up to half an hour at three immigration checkpoints in early 2020. Left Thailand later for about six months. After that no issues, and I got a long-term visa following that.
  24. StayinThailand2much
    It's not about those people in the North East, but the few greedy upper-class billionaires who want to add 300 baht times X to their already outrageous fortune...
  25. StayinThailand2much
    Didn't the TAT announce in the past that Pattaya tourists come for the temples?
