Thailand might face a shortage of foreign currency reserves.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will it be a kind of good news to the would-be expats and tourists?
As their immigration policy could be further relaxed; alien-friendly.
As Thailand will be desperate for earning foreign currencies(brough from outside).
Even though kingdom's inflation rate will rise(lower currency value=higher price of imports that cannot be made locally).

I mean the average home in America is probably $250,000 to $500,000, excluding California that is, and there aren't Lambos and Ferraris parked in every driveway. Why on Earth would anyone waste so much money on a horrible depreciating purchase?
Not shocked at all anymore as this is a common occurrence with thais and seems to be acceptable to some degree as long as you have a reason to be angry. Thats what brings the casual appearance to these attacks. If you have a reason to be angry then it seems fair play.
Out of curiosity, when a car is listed at 1 million baht, what's the total, including tax, title, license, dealer prop, delivery, loan origination fees, etc. (Leave out loan interest, just the origination fees)
I used 1 million to keep the math simple...
Went yesterday (Sunday) a lot of the stock like cheese is covered over, but can still buy it apparently. Bought a big block (500grm) of NZ Mainland Tasty Cheddar for 299 baht.
Come on, everybody in the village will see your new car when you drive around. And when you visit the relatives in another province you can't take your house with you, but you will take your shiny new car with you. Look here, I am somebody!
