I have been poo pooing the idea the retirement age could be raised to 60...But if you think about it, this would create instant customers for the elite.....But for this to work they could not have any grandfathering..... I would hate to see this.....But no telling what they might do not to lose face..

redwood1 replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
The video said the price is... 300 baht for Thais 800 baht for farang... Pratamnak hill would be ok.....But the rest of the tour looks watching paint dry boring... -
I am tired of waiting for my 10,000 baht........Retired expats should be first in line for the 10,000....

They hype the elite visa privilege benifits like its some kind of treasure... I would not pay 500 baht for any of that stuff......I and I think many others have ZERO interst in the privilege nonsense.. If they want to move some product how about selling some elites that have no benifits what-so-ever except time.... But nope.....Hype has very fat margins.....lol

One thing I have learned over the years in Thailand is they love love love to set unrealistic fast completion dates to costruction projects..... I have lost count how many times they have promised 2nd road will really really be finished by so and so date...This has been going on for years.... 100% guaranteed the new dates will be missed too..

I found a bunch of people I knew decades ago on the internet......But after I found them I realized I had nothing to say....lol The one guy I really wanted to talk to, had moved and changed his phone number dozens of times....So I hit a dead end there...

Pattaya Deputy Mayor Vows to Protect Iconic Walking Street Tree
redwood1 replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
These peope absolutely despise trees.... (except for their beloved Palm trees of course) They cut down the majority of the lovely trees on beach road in 2013 to make a extra lane that was never needed... And on the very first day of work on the new promenade repaving (2 years ago).....They got out the chainsaws and tried their best to cut every last remaining tree on beach road.....Only a huge citizens protest saved a small number of trees from being cut.... Protecting the Walking Street tree?......Thats a good laugh..... And well they care about that Walking Street tree...... But unfortunately it had to be cut.... They did not want to cut it......But well they had to............ Trust me folks--This is the future.... They would not even be talking about that tree unless they already had plans to cut it down.. -
If they wanted to raise prices 20% 30% ok , fair enough but to raise the 20 year by 400% ?? These people have gone mad......I mean like "One who flew over the Cuckoo's nest" nuts...... Can you imagine buying a Starbucks coffee for 130 baht one day, and the next day the same coffee cost 650 baht.....lol.........Even the hardcore Starbucks sheeple would give Starbucks the middle finger..... Maybe these are not the real prices.....Maybe they are just sending out a few trial balloons to test the response...

Lets take a look at the new prices....And lets just forget about all the silly privilege points nonsense....That most people dont give a rats azz about... Revamped Membership Tiers: * Reserve Card: By invitation only at THB 5M, it offers a visa validity of 20 years, * Diamond Card: Priced at THB 2.5M, with a visa validity of 15 years * Platinum Card: At THB 1.5M, offers a visa validity of 10 years* Gold Card: This membership card, at THB 900K, ensures a 5-year visa Reserve card.....20 years cost ....5 million baht.... Dimond card ...you could buy 30 years for 5 million if you could re buy at the same price Platinum.....you could buy 33.3 years for 5 million if you could re buy at the same price Gold...you could buy about 27.5 years for 5 million if you could re buy at the same price This is not the way value works in the market place... For most things if you buy more of some thing you get it at a cheaper price per unit..... The above pricing turns value on its head.... Where if you buy less you get better value?? Can anyone explain this??

Pretty much all the food courts downstairs at Central Festival blow....To add insult to injury, they are pretty overpriced too..... The old food court there was pretty good....The new one I will not go to......
