It's the same every low season. You have agencies, authorities all coming out spelling the end, wild claims that tourism is over and struggles. Government panics and gives agencies mad money. High season comes and it's back to normal. TRUTH is they on course to smash nearly 40 million tourists - ALBEIT CHEAP TRASHY TOURISTS. Not quality tourism. World economic authorities have constantly warned Thailand it must diversify it's economy and not be reliant so much on tourism. It never listens, as it seeks short term gains due to political unrest. Thailand is obsessed with 'numbers' - so 40 million touirsts, an arbitrary figure is things they like to see. DOesn't matter if they're trashy tourists (eg 6 sex pest men sharing 1 women at a discount rate). If Europe, USA opened their borders like Thailand has done to cheap tourism they would get tourists in the hundreds of millions.

There's plenty of things in America you can't do till a certain age, but still vote. Eg you can't drink alcohol till 21, but can still vote at 18.

I keep seeing all over social media loads of controversy about him lately. Seems a lot of hate directed towards him. What's happened ?

16 year olds are not mature enough, but they have a rite to vote. Old racist, selfish pensioners are worst.

The chinese cannot stand them.

Absolutely awful. They are turning away quality tourists. The sex pests in Pattaya are dangerous to women there, even those who aren't in the nightlife scene.

Someone certainly benefitting from prolonging the war.

Why would it cost 800 million ?

Can't they just hire an army from around the world like the Russians did from North Koera ?

Dirty money

Wow they're really spending some $$$ on these nonsensical polls.

Then tell them to go ride bikes in Kuwait. They won't do that in Kuwait but treat Thailand as a lawless play thing.

I'm no fan of her and her party in coalition (especially the absurd policy of open door visas and mass cheap tourism destorying Thailand culture, soft policing) - but this is absurd. You can't have courts removing leaders because they have diplomatic talks with others that have been secretively recorded. Even removing Sretta last year was on a flimisical whim. How many politicians in the UK and USA have been criminals etc - but i can't recall a sitting President or Primeminister being removed because of such an issue. It would mean an end to any diplomacy a Thai leader could have to talk freely is gone.

Sports clubs won't be free. Is his motive not put kids into school financial ?

It definately does not. After 6 months, he'll have to go show he is still earning with evidence, and has the savings in his account.
