CanadaSam Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 (edited) Must make a note to not live anywhere in the vicinity where it could (will) fall like all their bridges, rapid transit supports, etc. etc. And perhaps somebody should educate the PM that NOTHING is built in Dubai or the Emirates without Western (mostly European) technology, period! So, his asking for "middle eastern" expertise is kindof ridiculous, because it simply doesn't exist! Edited April 23 by CanadaSam 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorecard Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 And within a short time another building will go up somewhere which is taller. In reality how would 'tallest building' attract big numbers of tourists? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AverageAussie Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 (edited) 15 minutes ago, transam said: They don't, my house is made of cement with additives......🤔 Without the cement, there would be no house....🤗 By "cement" most people actually mean concrete. Cement is one of the key components in concrete. For the record, most modern high rise buildings structurally use steel & glass exteriors. Concrete may be often used in the compression members for the lower stories of multi-story buildings. Edited April 23 by AverageAussie 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, that was never built because Bruno and Michael spent all the deposits while posing around town in Ferrarris and Bentleys. Nothing to do with the Thais. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Goat Posted April 23 Popular Post Share Posted April 23 As usual the negative clowns about all things thailand are dribbling. Thais can build tall buildings well. Ever been to Bangkok? Even Khon Kaen has some tall buildings. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Almer Posted April 23 Popular Post Share Posted April 23 Somebody needs to get hold of the PMs reigns, but if you want to go down in history, how about the most nourished residents, or the most well educated students, or the most uncorupt government, these are things to spend money on and get a lasting result 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how many of Bangkok's approximately 180 skyscrapers have fallen down because of "dodgy concrete mix"? How many bridges have collapsed? How many mass transit lines have fallen over? Yes, there are construction accidents just like anywhere, but they are pretty good at making tall buildings here, especially considering the composition of the land. 1 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreasyFingers Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 This is a sign of desperation. Many past failing governments/economies have looked to create the biggest something or other. Not a good sign for Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be funded by the private sector and create jobs. It is a positive not a negative. I will probably buy a condo for myself there for when I am staying in Bangkok. The only negative are the usual whiners being negative on this forum because they can not get their head around being positive about Thailand. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
