Unexpected by whom? Analysts, economists and other waste of rations?

Yeah right. Just like those who are arrested for no tax, no insurance, no licence, no crash helmet, driving on the wrong side of the road. Arrested by whom?

Construction is a dying business. Despite successive governments stating 250,000 - 300,000 houses need to be built a year, construction firms are going bust and not building anything like the numbers.

So every time I transfer my 65,000 THB from my UK bank to my Thai bank, for my O-A visa extension requirements, I'll be quizzed?

Forecasting exchange rates is as accurate as economists forecasting the 2008 financial crash, or analysts forecasting company profits. It won't be just Pattaya that will suffer though if this does come to pass. All of the Thai economy will implode as exports will become too expensive for anyone to buy.

I just saw B20 Diesel ads at some PTT stations yesterday for the first time. Was wondering what it was...

 

Palm oil lol. No idea what's worse for the environment, Diesel or Palm oil, but what I do know is that the environmental activists definitely do not like palm oil, that's for sure.

Apparently, the number after the B is the percentage of biodiesel in the doesel. If you see what I mean.

Time for another army coup?

Surely this is an oxymoron? Conscription is compulsory by definition. How can it be voluntary?

What's the point if the vehicle has no plates? In my experience, at least 50% of motor bikes and a lot of cars have no plates. I saw an Ambulance with no plates at all 3 days ago.
