It is basically easy... you can ask for something what you want, but the consumer is paying what he/she think it is worth for him/her. Too expensive you don't sell a lot.. too cheap you will sell but no or not enough profit....Mostly buyer and seller find each other in he middle somewhere...But if the airline prices are also getting more expensive the hotels will have to lower their roomrates.... And bargains are always to be found somewhere...

Congratulations....well done.... There could be more titles if sport was promoted and people had some freetime instead working from early morning till dark 7 days a week.. Even the students have almost never time to play.... -
Pheua Thai candidates told they will clear up drugs in Buriram
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
Impossible promise....as long as the RTP is involved it can't be done... In my neighbourhood there is a boy who is caught several times for dealing and possession of drugs. Every time the police ask money and he will not be charged..... last time it cost him 50k.... and he is free and start again....His girlfriend was the daughter of the head of the village, and when they came check the area the head of the village even dared to say there were no drugs in this area.... Just to say -

Tourist Takes Action For Being Slapped, Handcuffed By Pub Guard
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Good that he stand up against these laws in Thailand that are outdated and too strict and are made by every man him/herself.... and all for a bottle of water.....Thai people should learn to think in grey and not only in black and white...Some minor offense are being handled as if they are big criminals.. just like in this case a bottle of water.... He did not rob a gold shop.....There is a lot of commotion about a Canadian who fought with 4 Thai people... but probably it is a similar case... He will probably loose the case, as foreigners will never win, but just the courage to try make life normal in Thailand is a good case.. -
No problem, no alcohol....we buy before and drink it on Monday... but as long as we can buy and use weed no worries anymore... Happiness to the people ( and if we out of alcohol a shop in a soi will probably be there to serve us....)

Education Ministry to Recruit Retired Teachers as Volunteer Educators
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Thai teachers dictate and students copy.... The students have no idea what they are copying, but questions are not allowed to asked....English teachers??? Even more difficult. I have tried to speak with Thai English teachers, but they avoid me as much as possible, and when they speak I hardly understand them..The director of the school master in English can't speak either.. reading and writing are normal... I had to check the tests every time and full of mistakes....The year of retirement the retiring teachers don't do anything anymore... too busy with their farewell party and clothing and all kind of other activities...And now they have to come back?? They don't add anything....sorry -
Thai youth finishes 2nd in bobsleigh race in South Korea
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
It is indeed a feel good story to show how good Thai people are... I am happy that she is successful don't worry... But it is outside the country and inside the country there are people fighting with their lives for real democracy and that you don't read anywhere here.. That is annoying and more important than a successful sportsman/woman I think -

Draft Prostitution Law To Set Voluntary Service At Minimum 20 Years
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
A law for something that doesn't exist in Thailand....They should better do something that people can earn a decent living instead of that they have to sell their body... -
Death is irreversible....and a cold body doesn't mean he was dead... Even no pulse could mean that becayse he was cold the heartbeat could be very slow...or maybe they did not feel properly..I am happy he still alive, and if people learn to talk about their problems, there can be solutions and there is no need to commit suicide.. Especially young people .. they have a whole life to go and things can change.. don't give up so easily...

ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Have you ever seen any wintersport on Thai TV???? how come she is interested at such a young age?? I was teaching in school and I showed the Wintergames in the classroom and the kids were very quiet and were very interested.. But Thai TV doesn't show ever any wintersport..Normally as it is never cold .... so probably she doesn't live here....Think a bit please, as they also don't write where she is living in Thailand....Lifting on success of others without any involvement by THialand.. same as LIsa..she has success but Thailand did not do anything to achieve this -

Thai youth finishes 2nd in bobsleigh race in South Korea
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Why mention it when did so well?? If it is really news the story would have been told before, that a Thai teen is training for bobsleigh competitions and that is rare as Thailand is not a wintersport country.... But you don't read anything unless the athletes have success.. Probably she doesn't live in Thailand -
Always my question why do people stop at the roadsides instead of petrol stations or other places like shopping malls parkings.... and why is the police not controlling this?? And why don't they take a rest during their trip?? In EU it is promoted to drive not longer than 2 hours and than take at least 15 minutes break..And also if you have to work you can't work from early morning till late evening....
