  1. Spell it out. Clearly. Is there a pattern? The areas that are burning...who are the owners..the large agro-chemical land owners. I think it won't happen. So back to blah blah blah until next year.
  2. Not TAT. This was Tourism and Sports Ministry. Overmanning and duplication of responsibilities anyone?
  3. 'Thai Prime Minister to woo global giants' Or he could try to 'lure' them.....
  4. I have used the Government Gateway before but since changing my phone number I am unable to meet their conditions to get in again. They say they can not communicate via email. International call rates to a number that will not be answered (your call is important to us, please hang on) hahaha. So I write letters to them and they will write letters to me. But I am still waiting.
  5. I have heard this too. The hotel can not give you room at the Agoda/ Booking.com price or they will have problems. If they all recognised they could sell at the desk or by phone and save about 20% for themselves things might change. Instead they try to charge extra. Often quite a lot.
  6. What are you still here for? Don't let the door hit you on the way out.......hang on. I agree with you!
  7. Isn't there a government department punishing those who encourage the use of alcohol? The usual confusion here.
  8. But they have been lured......555
  9. I think I do, but would welcome some information. Would it really be unsafe for you to add more?
  10. Yes, so why were the regulations so important before? Keeping the hordes from invading the paradise that is Thailand. Thailand for the Thais and everyone else leave some money and leave because you do not belong here.
  11. You just want a pointless argument. Bye.
  12. Why on earth not? It's what people used to do...still do. Like the look of a place, walk in and ask how much.
  13. If they all offered honest pricing I would. I never needed Agoda in the past. Since they do exist I have gone to hotel desks as a walk in customer and sometimes been shown prices 300% higher than I have just been looking at online. If they offered the same price I can see online they could keep the 17% commission for themselves.
  14. I have noticed this with so many organisations and customer 'care' has frequently become something they seek to avoid. They will no longer respond to an email and give a phone number which, if answered, will send you into a automatated process which may not offer the option you want anyway.. 'Please hold on. Your call is important to us.' Hahaha.
  15. Yes, for sure. Smoeone is trying to trick someone into doing something unwise. Who is it keeps bringing up this word? They should be told.
  16. What a horrible way to behave. I'd be surprised if any pupils would want to learn English if it meant having to associate more with people like him.
  17. And the system that is actually funded very well, but manages to supply inadequate teaching to the pupils. And a curriculum which seeks to indoctrinate rather than educate.
  18. Yes, why are they needed. One say they are setting up Middle East roadshows and the next they are focusing on domestic tourists. Anyone remember when they were targeting millionaire cyclists? The Ministry of Sports and Tourism could take over and save the county a lot of money.
  19. If it was legal he would be just a businessman not a gang leader. And there are now as many Ganga shops as coffee shops in some places.
  20. Another wasted opportunity. They did all the promotion but forgot to taste check what the consumers would think. Thailand does not need more average beer. Better quality ingredients and brewing and 10 baht more expensive could be a winner.
  21. What does the old duffer who writes them think? Can he write one for the People or only for the 'good people.'
  22. The words 'humanitarian' and 'Myanmar' should not appear in the same sentence.
  23. Isn't saying which beers you prefer and why endorsing such beers? Isn't talking about new products and saying where you can buy them promoting them? A ridiculous law.
  24. The main threat is demands for Democracy. And that's gone quiet.
