Silencer Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 There may be big shots in Pattaya but they don't hold a candle to the boys in Bangkok. Many places flaunting the rules openly as the OP states. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the price is too high then you have to store the rice waiting for buyers . Then the next year the farmers will be forced to grow less rice while last years rice is waiting to be sold . I believe Thailand managed to sell much more rice this year due to the drop of the value in the Thai baht . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elkski Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 It does seem the bigs in Thailand do want change for Pattaya.

I think price of rice is measured in usd, anyway not in baht. Price set in global markets where thai simply is in very bad position against esp. Vietnam If baht is up, the price thai seller gets goes down (if they choose to sell). That's why the rice subsidy is in talks again.
