We live nearby and go there often for food. Well its ridiculous that you and him claim knowledge and real information about the financial future of a mall based on that u seen some visitors inside. In reality u know completely nothing about the financial situation of that place !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVENKEEL Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Been there once, the food selection is large, not just the food court but I mean all the other restaurants. Want to check out the movie theatre. It will be my go to place for an ouulala day. That's where I go out alone and enjoy some western food, see a movie. Cruise the ZONE, have a few beers and go home. I know, slow down with all that excitement. All in all T21 is a neat place to hangout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admit I have no idea what the businesses in T21 pay in rent. We all know, roughly, electric and staff salary costs. My observations when I go there is, for the majority of shops, there are not enough customers in them to be profitable. I understand many of them are chains, and will take a loss on a shop, just to have a presence in T21 / Pattaya, next to their competitors. That's fine. I get that. However, that doesn't mean they are thriving and profitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricTh Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Terminal 21 are being established in how many cities in Thailand? I know of one in Bangkok, I am surprised to know it is in Pattaya too but unfortunately, there's none in Chiang Mai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already posted pictures but don't let that get in the way of your agenda. You are probably not even in Thailand given your totally wrong opinion. I have been in Thailand longer than you have.... your pics are not consider as packed but whatever floats your boat buddy.... I don't have any agenda, just pointing things out. I do know the owners of T21, but you won't believe it anyways ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality u know completely nothing about the financial situation of that place !! Good point. Just like you. The difference is that we are here and go to the mall and see the people walking around spending money there. That mall is doing just fine. But just like other malls, some shops and restaurants are not busy and will likely be replaced by something else eventually. Just like at Central. Just like at Royal, which, btw is not nearly as busy as the other two malls and yet it still survives after all these years. Just like Avenue btw. What a lot of you don't seem to realize is that carrying costs in Thailand are almost nothing. They just need to make enough to pay the power bill and that's about it. But don't let that get in the way of your incessant nonsense predictions about how everything is doomed that you people are almost ALWAYS wrong about year after year, decade after decade.

Sadly for you the carrying cost for a mall owner or a shop owner are much higher then their monthly electricity bill. personally I haven’t seen it busy there with shoppers like in TM21 Bkk so I doubt its profitable at this stage. Again a nice mall but many orher malls nearby and with the focus on Indian tourists I foresee dark clouds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep expecting The Avenue or Harbor to give up as they are saddening at many times of day. Just places to get out of the heat and humidity....(not even that at The Avenue), and do the weekly shop for residents. The Avenue Mall should be used for bars. A Nana Plaza here in Pattaya. Would be sad to lose this building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing of any value being posted here. Why do you seek to shut down every thread that is even the slightest bit critical of Pattaya / Thailand, its economy, its governance, its laws etc? We all like it here, but the place if far from perfect, with many questioning the decisions made by those in authority or in business here. What's wrong with discussing these things?

The concept is good, and the building lends itself to a complex of bars, but cutting the Pattaya customer pie into more slices by making more bars would not be a good idea. Many bars are struggling as it is, and making more bars would see a lot a vacated premises around Central Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
