Nonetheless, all this reasoned and hearty discussion and the robust yet rhetorical Thai authority-speak regarding the promotions and upgrades is all for not if they don't implement the practices that they're preaching.
Airport, and other, authorities have a history of talking grand but really don't fulfill any such appointed and practical tasks. Usually amounts to one step forward and two steps back.
I suspect nothing will change in the near or distance future, as it appears that they don't what they're doing or aren't sure of how they want to do it........adding to the misery will be the convoluted Thai bureaucratic and the seemingly paranoid mindset which usually inquires as to which way is up. They want it, in theory [or perhaps they don't] - yet, haven't figured out how to attain it.
Unfortunately, any way they approach such issues will amount to a clusterphuck.
