As soon as it starts snowing in Thailand... -
About time to promote Thailand as the "Hub of (pointless) Hubs"...

Impact of Gaza conflict on tourism in Thailand [Video]
StayinThailand2much replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Yes. Few could spell the word 'hospitality', but many, probably 'money'... -
I pay more than that for food.
-
And I thought it was already... All I see is Thais playing games everywhere, and if I ask them, what they'll do next, they usually tell me: "Play games..."

Little need for “digital wallet” scheme : Bank of Thailand
StayinThailand2much replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
So, what? When did Thai politicians ever listen to economists... -
Ironic that Italy already said 'Arrivederci' to 'Belt and Road'...
-
Not to mention thick brown envelopes...

#1 and #2 could easily be my main complaints about Thais. Not exactly #3, albeit some women are getting fat (beer, or no beer)...

They want to brag every week, 'how rich' Thailand became...
-
They will probably forecast 250 million tourists in 2024, generating 25 trillion baht income...
-
They have pass-marks, but even if the kids fail and fail again, the teacher will "upgrade" (falsify) the scores well above the pass mark, as students are 'not supposed to fail'. Also, oftentimes, grades are ridiculously 'enhanced' to please the parents. As with everything in Thailand, it's only about $$$$...

They better have lots of games on them...
-
Or more dollars from Beijing (or tourists, and expats)...

Great advice. Any recommended travel agents for this in Phnom Penh?
-
When these election promises were given, many probably hoped for hard cash...

Yes, not likely, esp. that one shooting in Bangkok, not particularly targetting Chinese, should have a big impact in Chiang Mai.
-
As they state the equivalent amount not only in US$, but also Malaysian ringgit (RM), they seem to anticipate that their taxation plans might lead to less expenditures from long-term tourists, which they then plan to compensate with by attracting more visitors from Malaysia... Charge expats, leading, possibly, to shorter stays (and less income), so that they need to spend more to attract new tourists. Smart move, Thailand...

Thai People Are Not The Target Of Hamas: Ministry
StayinThailand2much replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Mexicans and Peruvians to Thais 'look like Thais', so perhaps they mistook Arabic for Thai due to the fact that they picked up a few words of Arabic... -
Thai People Are Not The Target Of Hamas: Ministry
StayinThailand2much replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Yes, an aggressive fundamentalist form of Islam, willing to use violence against anyone, not that different from Al-Qaeda and ISIS. -
Thai People Are Not The Target Of Hamas: Ministry
StayinThailand2much replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Spot on. This is the goal openly declared by Hamas, Hizbollah, and the regime in Tehran. (And none of their territories is occupied by Israel.) -
Seconded. Two of my landlords outright refused filing the required TM.30. It made me wonder how many hotels don't do it either...
-
Not even the ultra rich Chinese and Indians do...

What is a Thai life worth to the government?
StayinThailand2much replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The answer is based on two things: (1) is the Thai rich and influential, or just one of the other 69 million 'peasants', and (2), if not influential, how much money can he/she make the government when sent abroad?
