It is frightening to think that a good proportion of these 'tourists' might be single males from a certain war torn part of the world looking for some R&R.

You mean from Yemen ?

Cha Cha is such a genius. He is predicting economic growth. He is forecasting tourism numbers. He is even able to predict inflation a year from now. It is a good thing Thailand has such a brilliant and capable man in charge. 

As the global warming crisis continues to worsen people are going to be forced to come to grips with the reality that air travel is a significant contributor to carbon emissions, and that mass tourism is environmentally unsustainable.

Keep jacking up the Baht—and see what happens.  I promise you—it won’t be pretty.

The good news is that at least one person is trusting the TAT delirium tremens. Go ahead guys.....

It will head back toward 37 at the end of the week, after USA SS is dispersed.  Dropped 0.5 baht the other day, just in time.  A monthly occurrence.

Let's change "optimistic" for realistic and then we might get somewhere!

In every thread concerning Thai baht / USD exchange rate, there is always the one and only you crying foul of baht manipulation, even is the USD value has increased by 15%, and then 1 day it retreats by 0.001%.

 

I take you must be really desperate, and should have thought about it before moving to Thailand

I believe this forecast!

Has he any bridges for sale too?  ????

I am equally annoyed at this monthly timing "phenominon".

USD / Baht lost half the month's gains, in just this past week...

He's SUCH an expert on all things, I have great faith in his words. BTW, we're STILL waiting for those soap operas he was going to create.

The unelected PMs soldier government is just one big soap opera in itself.

DREAM ON !

Not desperation—more like frustration.  Baht gyrates up and down.  When it’s down—I dump money in.  When it’s up—I pull back. And to quote a popular song, “I know I’m not the only one.”

Their only getting more tourists at this time because the ganjas legal, if they flip flop on that they won’t come.

Guess you know very little about smokers, smoking scene as well available quality in that case.

 

Unless you wanna change the word Thailand for America, nobody would wanna be found dead there to just smoke a joint indeed.
