It's not milking a cow, it is not greed. Millions and millions of people who rely on the tourist industry have had little to no income for TWO YEARS. It is not only hotel owners but receptionists, cooks, dish washers, maids, drivers, gardeners, and all the people who supply them, shop owners, small restaurants, beach vendors. It is trying to help those people earn a living. It really annoys me when people throw out this ridiculous TVF "Thai greed" comment when the absolutely destruction of livelihoods is there for all to see..........and these people need tourists back. People in the cities have other options to a certain extent (Thais still need food and services). People on the islands need foreign tourists, it really isn't hard to understand. Yes, seems maybe you do understand this after all. So why shout "greed"?

Yawn, another greed comment. Care to explain the greed involved? (I am guessing you won't as usually these types of comments are "bash and go" - throw out a generic anti-Thai comment, move on to the next thread and do the same)

Everyone has their preferred way of doing it I suppose.

Yeah, but Bangkok is no longer a Sandbox area, right? I saw this on Thai News Reports: "New Sandbox provinces from 11 January: Samui, Koh Phan Ngan, Koh Tao, Phang Nga, and Krabi". Source: Or are they "new as in "additional"? I guess we need to wait for clarity to see whether Bangkok is included or not.

Typical Norwegian greed. Money first. Noway = Land of Scams. etc etc

Ah yeah, that explains all those hundreds of "use Red Fanta for your shrine" TV commercials I have seen over the years.. Jeez.
