Designed and built by the disgustingly rich expressly for the rising stars of the new generation elite. And of course the trough dwellers like bent military generals and politicians who need somewhere to spend their payola. 
Where better to launder it than in expensive brand name (watch) shops.

The wealthy should be banned from the planet?

Of course not! I was not talking globally, I was just referring to Thailand. Try to stay on track.

Only the 1% filthy Thai rich who own 67% of the country's assets and don't want to share it with the other 99% should be banned. It goes without saying the inordinately and illegally rich Thai junta generals should also be banned.

The expensive brand names you refer to are mostly foreign companies which cater to the wealthy. The locale of the proposed construction would indicate the stores are also targeting wealthy travelers?

"It will become a must-visit shopping destination to complete your trip.”

 

Travelers will have to pass through this money sucking black hole when arriving and departing.

Where is this specifically located?

 

How is it going to work? Will travellers, particularly Chinese, be taken there en route to the airport to try and capture the "duty free" / last-minute shopper baht?

One can always exercise the option of keeping their money in their pocket.

Yeah right. You can't ever get enough "lifestyle".

Whenever I hear that wretched word, which characterises the shallowness of modern society, I get the same feeling as the character in the Hanns Jost play who, every time he heard the word "culture", reached for his gun.

 

Just as well I don't own one!

Why would they?  It's not in the airport and nobody has to travel through it unless they decide to go there.

And shops do not suck your money into a black hole.  They sell things.  Things have prices.  If you want to buy the thing you pay the price of the thing, then you get to take the thing home.  If you don't want the thing you don't buy the thing.

So you consider shops to be money sucking black holes?  Supermarkets also have things for sale, so you consider them to be money sucking black holes too?

What's funny?

 

I employ several Thais in that age bracket who earn more than 50k, in fact most of the Thais in that age bracket at my company earn way more than that, nearly all of them.  And I am sure we are not the only company.  Skilled Thais earn money and they are a target audience.  Again, what's funny about that?

I am finding it difficult to contain my excited on hearing this news and wondering just when should I make the effort to visit another shopping complex comprising of overpriced and overrated stores so  similar  to others ?  Stop please too much.  ????????????
