They might need to fix the immigration computers at the airport first. 

Hub of useless paperwork, rules and regulations.

 

Hub of road deaths

Come to think of it, I don't recall a " hub" announcement for a couple of weeks!

 When I saw the words "aims to" as well, I started looking for the TAT connection!

Focusing on the giant snaking lines of departing and incoming passengers would be useful. 

Where will they find the English-speaking people to deal with the extra passengers, I wonder.

The hub of dreams!😂

By now Thailand must be the hub for almost anything.

Does anybody have a list of all the Thailand hub promises from the last decades and what actually happened?

Is Thailand the hub for anything?

Of course there is the nightlife, but I don't remember if that was ever promoted. 

 

Of course not, because there is no prostitution in Thailand.

Thaksin is back just on time for this.

I love the see the girls "dancing". ;) 

I wonder how many inventions originated in Thailand apart from Red Bull and Mua Thai.

What about this? Coming from an Island of 27 million?

• Black box flight recorder
• Spray-on skin
• Electronic pacemaker
• Google Maps
• Medical application of penicillin
• And many more not to mention all the other ones from all other countries 
• Thailand is a hub of nothing

Come on, even when I just had a soapy bath, I like it. ;) 

 

 

That’s a very brave statement considering the mess up in Suvarnabhumi airport yesterday! Maybe he hasn’t heard about it !

Hub of crackdowns.

 

One day, Thailand will be a hub, the next day, there is a crackdown.

SIN, KUL and BKK are already THE hubs for air travel in SE Asia. Announcing a goal that has already been met (prior to the current PM taking office) are the only goals this PM can achieve.

Let me help with the inaccuracy... "Over the past two decades, we had governments that saw opportunities and seized scammed them." ...

 

LoS is a hub for at least one thing - xenophobia, scamming and, exploiting/abusing foreigners. Sorry that was three things.

Porn Hub. That's deffo on it's list of 'achievements'! 🤔😂

Just on the very day that the automatic passport machines break-down and cause chaos?!!!

Nope. Not gonna happen. You have to offer significant helicopter and small plane charters. Especially in a nation that has hopelessly choked highways. Thailand needs to make some sacrifices. Something the lame authorities don't seem to understand. 

C'mon everybody, it was just a typo.

Instead of wanting to be the Asian aviation hub, they mean to be the Asian aviation rub.

I believe plans are already in motion to build go-go bars inside BKK airport.

BS I suspect!

Then it will be the hub of airport queue's 

Airports are very expensive to build and maintain. Is Thailand wanting to be a maintanence

hub? That is a very precise line of work, with a verh high standard of safety, and highly

skilled Ircraft engineers needed as well. Just saying.

Agree but BKK has to improve its immigration and baggage delivery time to catch up with Changi where it's a slow arrival if you're not in a cab, bus or train within 15-20 minutes of your plane reaching its gate. Check in and immigration on leaving is also a breeze with everything fully automated.

These things aside it offers far better value than Singapore for a stop off.

The use of two airports while making sense may not help the hub concept

The hub of all hubs - how comforting. But, before you apply for this position, you might want to clean up your tremendously bureaucratic immigration act and inch from 1'380'417 BC to the 21st century. Air travel, no TM6, border crossing TM6 mandatory (in some cases), the confusion with the nose-poking officers is evident. English, politeness and a smile would really help as this is the first direct face-to-face contact with the dirty farang, alien, khaek, jeck and whatever the semi-divine call the tourists. Latter should actually just dump their cash and valuables in a drum, best not even leaving the aircraft and bugger off again ;-) 

Some last week's impression of the qualification to be come the hub-of-all-hubs ....:
 

Bwahahahaha this story regurgitated again?  

I'll be anything you waunt.... 

Anything?
