  1. OK if you say so. There might be enough land there for a small aircraft airport. But it's a crazy location for any kind of airport.
  2. That would only take up a very small percentage of the cleared land.
  3. Yeah that's gonna be a downside of any large new development.
  4. People in Jomtien will care especially if it's something big and a new thing for Jomtien. A monorail station would fit that and so would a luxury mall.
  5. Pineapples and bananas make a lovely tropical fruit salad.
  6. Yes some people certainly do put an awful lot of energy trying to defend the indefensible.
  7. "Parts" you say? You're LYING again. https://apnews.com/article/trump-usaid-aid-cut-doge-musk-dbaf0e89d72938caabee8251f7dfb4a7 Trump’s permanent USAID cuts slam humanitarian programs worldwide: ‘We are being pushed off a cliff’
  8. The location is just too incredibly prime to be a very long term tax dodge. But certainly we don't know yet if there will be any development there next year or next decade.
  9. Agreed. Very prime. Not a place for bananas. Well as I said I did see a real estate company web page that talked about that location as being the future main Jomtien MONORAIL station. But I'm not aware if that project has been officially approved and funded yet (or if it ever will be) but the location does make sense for that. If true it would make sense for there to be a major shopping mall (destination) adjacent to the station.
  10. The source is a right wing media organ. Again, open a new topic. If you don't know what this topic is about, read the O.P. I get it -- you don't think Trump is evil. That's fine. Now stop your obnoxious effort to hijack this topic with your disingenuous NOISE.
  11. More propaganda. Trump massively axed the entirety of USAID. Not just specific more controversial parts of it. Leading to HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of deaths. Again, total pure evil.
  12. Obvious misleading propaganda. That's about billing for gender affirming care. Not specifically surgical procedures. Gender affirming care for minors is generally counseling and hormone therapy. Homone therapy is not surgery. You are cynically trying to steal this topic away from what it is. If you want to debate gender affirming care for minors -- OPEN UP YOUR OWN TOPIC.
  13. Well, if they are planting banana trees that does support the theory that they won't be building anything on that land anytime soon. Beyond that if they just leave it bare, yeah that would be a big mess when it rains. But that location is so prime that it's hard to believe it will just sit there like that indefinitely. Can anyone share any "insider" info related to the banana tree theory and what it means to this SPECIFIC area of land? I get the point about it being a common thing in general. But I don't think anyone has said yet that they really know anything definitely about the specific location in question.
  14. You are lying for the biggest liar president in American history. I won't waste my time engaging with you about this further.
  15. I think stealing of any kind is wrong. I also think almost every adult alive has done some kind of stealing in their time, and I certainly don't think all people are evil. You're just troll baiting here. The question is about the totality of the life of one man -- Trump -- not any specific character trait or action. The entire package. It's clear to me Trump himself has self awareness of his evil nature. It may be out of his control.
  16. Which basically almost never happened! People who voted for Trump based on that red herring manufactured demagogued issue are total suckers.
  17. I reckon you're talking about there being a certain level of corruption and some questionable projects within USAID. There is no human endeavor that doesn't have some flaws and controversies. None of that even remotely justified the level of trashing of USAID done by Trump leading to hundreds of thousands of deaths. Also we are not talking about everyone who may be evil the world here. The topic is very clear. Do you judge Trump, specifically Trump, to be evil, or not? I do consider him evil for many many reasons. I guess that with your baiting question and cynical deflection that you're in the maga loyalist camp -- no matter how bad his character and actions.
  18. I hope it doesn't just sit. Losing all that green space was really bad. Having an ugly brown empty lot sitting for years is even worse. On the other hand, maybe better than just new condos.
  19. Some things I've read so far. The top two possibly more credible. Just possibly. Someone reported reading an advert for land for villas there. A real estate site mentioned a future Monorail Jomtien Station at that location. Geez, I hope it's not just going to only be villas and condos! As far as a Monorail station, possibly but there is way too much cleared land just for that. A list of theories and guesses: A new hospital. Seems unlikely as there a newish Jomtien hospital at Sukhumwit. A massive shopping mall. That's what I would like to see. I know that would totally change Jomtien but it's happening anyway, so buckle up. A Big C Extra. Yeah maybe. Useful but not as exciting as luxury shopping mall. Disneyland Thailand (not enough land) A list of jokes A golf course An Indian Market An expansion of gay Jomtien complex Immigration detention center Casino Muslim temple World's Biggest 7-11 (Pattaya already has that)
