I was never great at maths but surely 41 to 47 baht is a 6 baht difference..........:unsure:

I agree.. but i also think that you’re just not going to find situations where wages - across the board - rise .. and do so without there being some form of a rise in consumer prices rising as well.

Love to see a Thas response to buying a train or underground ticket in the UK

 

With the online available dates to an average income in both countries you have to pay for a day pass in the UK-tube 0.035% of your income and for MRT/BTS 0.039%.  What's cheaper?

Yes indeed, but in reverse, having recently flown into DMK from Cambodia, I took a connecting train from Don Mung Station through to Chiang Mai for just 231 baht!! I was amazed, but it was an ordinary train which eventually arrived 14 hours later!
