bendix Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 The OP's post is almost as funny as suggesting that a farang can own land (up to one rai and solely for residential purposes) so long as they are prepared to invest a minimum of 40m baht in BOI-approved government investments. Oh . . wait a minute . . that is no joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPaddy Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 It is rumoured that the thai elite card idea was conceived on april 1st several years ago. It is also rumoured that they did this in the afternoon after 12, so therefore it had to be taken seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
