House approves 122 billion baht digital wallet scheme budget
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The people have to apply and prove how much money in a bankaccount and how much they earn.. as 500k in bankaccounts and /or 70 k income are not rewarded.... and aa 75% of Thai people don't pay taxes. there is probably more tax money to find if they apply... -
House approves 122 billion baht digital wallet scheme budget
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
OK let the country go down now..... see what will happen next year...... IT looks good that there is a peak maybe, but with the pay back and interest the burden will surely influence the budgets... Or another possibility is that the Government is making an effort to have an insight of how many people should pay taxes and don't do it yet.. So these people will maybe get a tax paper next year -

Thailand Warns Public on Dangers of Cyanide Possession
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It would never come into my ind to buy, get or google where or how to get cyanide.... What is in peoples mind to get these dangerous poisons?? And why is it free available??? Much more dangerous than vaping or alcohol on a Buddhist day -
Alcohol Sales Prohibited in Thailand on July 20-21, 2024
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Good for tourists who come and enjoy their holidays... Restricted alcohol sales hours and religious holidays no alcohol at all... Only available in Thailand as hub of tourism industry...Purpose still unknown as monks in principle are not allowed to drink alcohol but that is always... People who practice Buddhism is advised to stay away of it, but they are not forced, unless in Thailand where there is always a way out..... -
Thai Athletes' Paris Olympic Uniforms Draw Criticism
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
It is a show to let the world know how the dinosaurs have the grip on the people in Thailand... Olympic Games uniforms should show the culture of the country instead of dressed up for a meeting or party.... Indeed the old guard has shown their influence again... How much need we new young blood -

Mae Hong Son cracks down on inappropriate tourist behaviour
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
what culture??? Don't know the reputation Thailand?? The land of sex, nightclubs, and gigs??? Tourism for many years and not adapted yet...Or do we also have to go swimming with all our clothes on because of the culture? Preserve the culture and stop with the rafting, but that will cost money -

House passes supplementary budget bill to fund “digital wallet
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
First do than think is normal in Thailand.... After the handout they will find out how big this mistake is... but than the harm is done, and the economy of Thailand will surely loose more than benefit from it....and the Government will have less money to help or do things with the result that everything is getting more expensive, bigger debts, and less tourists as they are being seen as walking ATM's because double pricing, more taxes on travels, etc etcm result will be less tourists, expats and retirees... It is doomed -
Thailand’s Digital Wallet Crisis: MFP Opposes Budget Allocation
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
This 10k scheme will be more harm than they know or say.. The burden of years of interest and payback for the loan will cost dearly... And that for an handout that will benefit who?? The real poor?? kids from 16 year old??? people with income of 70k a month don't really need it or who has 500k on bankaccounts.... Money on bankaccounts are holding the economy back too.... But a single handout will never work.. Use the money to raise the diaily salaries for instead.. so that the poor people can spend more Everything is getting more expensive everyday and people can not buy more with not even 400 THB a day -
Mae Hong Son cracks down on inappropriate tourist behaviour
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
Why not fine the ones who sold the alcohol outside the alcohol sales hours??? Now in Pai you have to wear proper clothes.. Maybe an idea for Pattaya, Phuket in the bars too that the girls and boys do the same??? Back to the Victorian age? Best thing to do is that tourists avoid Pai and this rafting.... Much better and easier- 105 replies

Thailand expects 42 billion boost from French tourists post-Olympics
ikke1959 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Expect............ the Games are staring next week, people have made their arrangements already Thailand.... so I suppose you can hope but the boosting will not be here... dream on -
And it will go down even more even after the 10k handout... As long as the old guard is in power nothing is changing.... really nothing...... and things that can will give some recovery as the gay marriage is not for this year anymore but maybe next year.....it will boost parties and a lot of people will benefit from it, but it has to be published first and than wait for another 4 months... Nobody can plan at this moment yet

Thai Govt Disputes Claims of Deserted Tourist Spots
ikke1959 replied to webfact's topic in Hua Hin and Cha-Am News
Living here I heard the same complaints in Cha Am.. but tourists are not allowed to bring blanket, chair or whatever on the beach because the stalles and restaurants say so.. Many disputes but the RTP ( of course) doesn't help.... The beach is public but many claim that they have to rent a chair, table or blanket or are not allowed to sit somewhere.... There are always people of course but much much less than previous.. Next thing will be that these restaurants/stalles are starting to complain and ask for help, but they are ones who ruined their own business No need to help them- 79 replies
