  1. Agoda started before covid, also the likes of Trip.com are listing villas and condo's
  2. This is all I can find no more details 1. Hotel license type 1 10,000 baht each 2. Hotel license type 2 20,000 baht each 3. Hotel license type 3 30,000 baht each 4. Hotel license type 4 40,000 baht each 5. Hotel business operating fee: 40 baht per year per room
  3. Marisa Sukosol Nunbhakdi, president of the Thai Hotels Association, called on the government to legalise unregistered accommodation swiftly to ensure fair competition and sustainable standards. Im led to believe it's nigh on impossible to obtain a license,
  4. You dont lose your girlfriend in Thailand, you just lose your turn,
  5. The short term rental market in Thailand is huge, It's not just Airbnb, you have Booking.com, Agoda, VRBO, Trip advisor and many more. One big problem with the STR properties is the absentee landlords were many guest do self checkin there is no control over how many guest are checking in, one reason why they turn into parties and places get trashed things get stolen, Some states in America require the host to be living within a certain distance from the property. To ban airbnb altogether is not the answer you would have to ban the whole of the STR business. Many people prefer to rent an airbnb over a hotel I think the figures and results tell you that, You cant beat renting a nice Pool villa with a full kitchen you can go and do all your own shopping for food and drink, Ha s been popular over the years with Russian families especially when they have a couple of kids,
  6. It was true I live near to there, 3 killed and one badly injured
  7. Fighting over women in Thailand, you have to be messing,
  8. It's not on their web site it was sent out as an email which is applicable to members in Thailand, did it say at the bottom, to be filled out in Thai language. something like that
  9. There’s enough room for hotel rooms and short-term rentals to compete side by side. Each offers unique pros and cons that appeal to different segments of the market.
  10. Phuket was in a coma, I reminded some Thais of that the other week, ok we go back to covid when you had nothing, many had to go back to sticky rice land.
  11. You remember that silly scouser up in Chiang Mai? spray painting that wall, didn't he get binged up and big fine
  12. And the Governor is worried about the Farang
  13. I dont know about that, it all went quiet
  14. Which one was that?
  15. It's just a small minority that are behaving badly, most of us respect the law better than Thai people.
  16. Well done to the police
  17. We havnt had a Nigerian for a while, did they stop? or have they all been getting through?
  18. There is guys out there who sell data, the problem is it gets sold a 1000 times
  19. Thailand is banned from the WC, every time they get a corner they want to open a shop
  20. Dont waste your money they have no chance,
  21. There is so many taxi app's here in Phuket, no need to get a taxi,
  22. There is already a shortage of hotel staff, so they need them and Thais dotn want to work in the kitchens or cleaning rooms, A friend of mine has two trendy restaurants he's paying a good daily wage, he cant get staff,
  23. That road is well lit, 4 lanes wide with a dual carriage way plus the hard shoulder, plenty of room for both of them,
