  1. "If we can get 400,000 a month during the low season months that will indicate we can get a million a month for the next high season from October," she said." Most certainly it doesn't work like that... first of all the high season does not begin in October...????????..... May be for her!..... Raining season is on the way in a couple of months....the only way forward and I write this part is because I worked many years in Tourism industry is to drop the rates by say 40-50%(One cannot make a loss out of a vacant room!!!) just to fill the occupancies...We did this in Greece when we were in recession, literally reduced the rates by up to 50% Mon-Thurs... weekends saw a few increases....and we had 6 months season... here we have year-round season in partial fulfillment of beds..Why they have offered incentives to Digital Nomads I will never understand??.... Spanish Islands like Lanzarote,Las Palmas Tenerife have extremely high apartment, hotel beds occupancy,the recreational facilities are unparalleled ... conferences, meetings, gyms etc... seminars,all funded by corporate employers.......I enjoyed writing this... hope it is interesting for readers here!????????
  2. We were just talking about this morning.... second booster meaning 4th vaccine am I right?......We were discussing my 3rd shot after 2 Pfizer since last August... I have had what I would call half virus after being negative...my wife was positive...and took 10 days to recover..any thoughts about this from others here?
  3. Does anyone know if the returnees.... Example Expatriates with Retirement Visa like myself need the $10,000 Medical Insurance to re-enter Thailand?
  4. I just saw we are over 10,800 signatures.....My opinion is this it to do with reciprocal agreement with the countries not included in the index linking of Pensions.... Now what these reciprocal agreements mean I have no idea... Does any one else know?....And my other opinion is that this is a huge task to sign these agreements with all these countries not included in the index linking!... and to put them into action.!.... also the Bill has to pass through and voted in House Of Lords before it becomes law.... just my opinion....I may be wrong! From the Guardian... because there is no legal requirements...and therefore no indexation! “The government’s policy on the uprating of the UK state pension for recipients living overseas is a longstanding one of more than 70 years, and we continue to uprate state pensions overseas where there is a legal requirement to do so.”
  5. "The mighty Centara Grand Mirage Resort Pattaya with over six hundred rooms is sold out according to Agoda.com" Never believe this!It is the oldest trick used by OTA's since time began....it says this because the hotel has taken "off sales" and is selling direct... or Agoda switch sell which again is the oldest trick these people play.. That said our area had its best ever season so far.. Good Morning!
  6. I have always wandered why they reduced it from 5 Million Baht?... Does anyone know?
  7. Is it possible to show some images of what condition the tiles are in?...I was just thinking about this on our roof.... When we had the house built, they suggested Masonry paint which is very thick... Very good advice here...our roof is about 18 metres high so that's going to be some work when it's needed....so far so good.... Let us know how you get on....I will do some research as well.....I know some trustworthy builders who are building some houses here... Good luck!????
  8. My opinion is YG Entertainment would get stuck for payment!.... +These events are planned 1 year in advance ....They are Global Entertainment, personally Young Lisa has all the abilities.
  9. "In addition, the UK still does not consider people who have been vaccinated in Thailand, even if they have received two doses of the same vaccine, as being “fully vaccinated”. So what does UK consider as fully vaccinated?? Does anyone know? I live here and have had 2 shots of Pfizer!.......????
