Well this should please those who are happy to pay more Thai's club what next dual pricing at supermarkets and restaurants.

An example from the link below
 

For example, an HIV test costs 160 baht if you’re Thai. It goes up to 240 baht for working expats and then to 320 baht for retirees and tourists.

Or, a spinal MRI examination will cost Thais 18,700 baht. That jumps to 23,375 baht for working expats and 28,050 baht for retirees and tourists.
 

https://thethaiger.com/news/national/foreigners-crying-foul-over-the-new-dual-pricing-policy-at-thai-public-hospitals

Will this mean dual pricing at private hospitals in the future?
 

cost me 21, 500 for CAT scan at Bkk Pattaya hospital...Jan 2012

so all tourist books/operators will now state ''visit thailand all bars and pubs NOW stay open until 4 am"

sur this is going to make MORE TOURISTS to visit Thailand.....I DOUBT IT VERY MUCH...

Would not give me the incentive to come here on holiday......nor many others I  would say !!!!

its cheaper here, prostitutes are cheaper

as a function of population percentage

willing to prostitute them self, and

generally lower wages, that dampens the asking price.

 

you could say a functioning market economy

 

 

NOT cheap here any longer only getting 37 to the pound....!!!

why not try Lazada????

Whats your point?.... so you can find decent beer back in the UK pubs.

 

You can also find very decent beer at many of the Tap-houses in Bangkok - its just expensive, perhaps as expensive to UK beer as UK restaurants are to restaurants in Thailand.

 

Pro-'s and cons...  The Hophead looks like it could be a good one.

 

 

Taylors LANDLORD, theakstons, and sam smiths are great beers from where i come from and Tetleys bitter....websters from Halifax are not too bad....

Don't be a pessimist. Ticket prices have been set and tickets printed. Everything is set to go.

Small details like finalising contracts, arranging finance, recruiting a skilled workforce and building a railway line and commissioning the trains can be done any time according to the wish and command of the PM. 

The skytrain slow speed 12 km line from Mo Chit to the Air Force Academy just past Saphan Mai has been under construction now for at least 4 years; and it's still not open.

At that rate of construction this 252 leg from Bangkok to Nakhon Ratchasimawill not be opening any time before 2060. Get your tickets early to avoid the rush.

When the maiden voyage from Bangkok to Nong Khai will take place is anybody's guess.

The SRT will be involved so there is every chance it might end up like this.

love your essay....many things you say are correct......love it...

Despite what people think, sorry I find it hard to believe that a uniformed officer at Chonburi office openly asked you for a bribe.  Maybe you misunderstood.

If that happened to me I would immediately complain to the highest supervisor and I bet they would investigate.

 

 

they are ALL in it together.....you think a higher ranking officer would "investigate" then your on another planet....!!!

I think he misunderstands the role of Tourism and Sports Minister; it's not about becomming a tourist yourself.

i want to know why a minister of tourism and sport ....has anything to do with late drinking??

well i suppose moving from bar to bar...is classed as tourism here.

And the sport is hunting down a prostitute  (but there is none in Pattaya !!)

so the sport could be dodging m/bikes and other traffic ??!!

i used a 20 footer from Uk in 2008...

Had to pay 10k baht for clearance thu Lam Chabang port.

My Uk delivery was  D D which means delivered domicile....that is home to home...also included was insurance...cost me 2,700 G B P for container....used John Masons in Liverpool.

I had 53 boxes delivered to my condo...

All household effects are duty free...

B T W I used to work in import/export business
