Tropicalevo replied to Social Media's topic in The War in Israel
Do you seriously believe the numbers that Hamas throw out to the press? Do you remember the press release from Hamas fed outlets that quoted 100's died when Israel bombed a hospital? It was a car park! Please get real. -
IDF Rescue Four Israeli Hostages in Central Gaza Raid
Tropicalevo replied to Social Media's topic in The War in Israel
Bluddy well done to the IDF. Excellent news for the hostages and for their families. Sad that some innocent folk may have died but that is 100% down to Hamas. They are murdering cowards that hide behind schools and hospitals. -

She was travelling with friends. Not everyone has money. Even if they do, they do not have to stay in 5* rip-offs. I usually stay in small 'comfy' places close to where I want to be.- 22 replies

Have you considered Choengmon beach? (North of Chaweng.) Very underrated. I think that it is one of the best beaches on the island, and quiet compared to Lamai or Chaweng. It is not a party place. Just chill. Lots of good restaurants. I do not know the Ibaza resort so I cannot offer comparisons. Mid July - you may find that some places will be quoting high season prices.

Red Bull magnate sues over fraud allegations for 50 million baht
Tropicalevo replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
This man should be in gaol for helping a killer to escape and avoid a trial. Hopefully this will now be in the International press and the world will see how the head of Red Bull really behaves. His son has been spotted in the hospitality areas at the F1 races but no one says or does anything.- 19 replies

Thai PM Eyes Revenue Boost for Fourth Quarter
Tropicalevo replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Not many straws left to grasp as the Junta used most of them up during their years of rape and pillage -
It has been very busy up to May but things are quietening down this month. As you say, it should be low season and that is reflected in the villa bookings that we see. Even though many owners are dropping prices, uptake is slow. I cannot speak for hotel rates. Less traffic on the roads (at last) and the quieter beaches are even more quiet.

Thai Tourism Revenue to Hit 3 Trillion Baht, Falls Short of Goal
Tropicalevo replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Great. A doll. That'll get them rushing to Thailand. Sorry TAT, your roadshows may be too late for this year. Chinese guests usually come in low season ie October/November. Lower room rates and air fares. Also Golden week (01/10 to 07/10).
