The thing is, the 40% discount only applies to rack rates. I saw on the agoda page that the rate they are offering is already 79% lower. So the 40% rack rate won't apply. If you speak Thai or get a Thai speaker to call them, maybe they'll take a bit off.

Someone told me that there is an excellent Thai osteopath in town. They work similarly to chiropractors. I'm trying to remember who told me about him.

Trump’s Cabinet Has Had More Ex-Lobbyists Than Obama or Bush
In less than three years, President Donald Trump has named more former lobbyists to Cabinet-level posts than his most recent predecessors did in eight, putting a substantial amount of oversight in the hands of people with ties to the industries they're regulating.
The Cabinet choices are another sign that Trump's populist pledge to "drain the swamp" is a catchy campaign slogan but not a serious attempt to change the way Washington works. Instead of staring down "the unholy alliance of lobbyists and donors and special interests" as Trump recently declared, the influence industry has flourished during his administration.
