niveknedwob Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Can you get an upgrade to have a double-wall perspex one with lava lamps built-in ? I guess it is all just multi-coloured LED's now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunjake Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 You've really got it all wrong.. - The BATH is really called the BAHT (In case you haven't figured it out yet) - The USD is only stronger against European currencies right now, not against the Asian currencies though. - The economy is not getting weaker it is actually getting stronger and exports are improving. - The Red Shits are not scaring away the tourists, they are simply going to other cities (Phuket, Samui, Hua Hin, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WE have a guest house south of Hua Hin and have never had it so good since the red mob took over Bangkok. Everyone wants to get out of bangkok. I hear its the same in other places outside Bangkok.

whiterussian Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) Singapore’s Strategy Why does a city-state like Singapore spend so much money in defense? Why the emphasis on tactical elite-units and special weapons? Who threatens it? Actually Malaysia threw out Singapore from the union that followed colonial times. Singapore offers no land gains to the conqueror. Its industry would be destroyed if occupied by Indonesia; the place would look like Gaza Strip. The only thing the conqueror may gain is access to the Singapore Port. Statistics of ports activity ranking are tricky and change rapidly; the main point is that this port is one of the largest in the world and a strategic stop between the Pacific and the Indian oceans. That’s a worthy prize for the conqueror, isn’t it? Actually not. From time to time the project to make an inland canal through Thailand connecting the Gulf of Thailand with the Andaman Sea is proposed; it would shorten significantly the travel time between the two oceans. In 1677 the Thai King Narai the Great asked the French engineer de Lamar to plan a canal connecting Songkhla with Marid (now Myanmar); being impractical with the technology of that time the project was dropped. In 1897 Thailand and the British Empire agreed not to build the Kra Isthmus Canal (also known as the Thai Canal), to protect Singapore, in exchange the British provide help in the conflict between the Thai and the French. This last agreement held along time, but it had become a leverage point in favor of Thailand in its complex relations with Singapore. A century later – in 1997 – the Thai government decided to float the baht, cutting its peg to the USD and caused what is known as the Asian Financial Crisis. One of the results was an ongoing financial help of Singapore to stabilize the Thai baht, in exchange of Thailand forgetting any plans of constructing a canal. Why do I mention this? If Singapore is conquered, Thailand would probably build the canal. Nowadays there are no technical problems. Thus, on there is no gain by conquering Singapore. Singapore has no enemies.

Actually Malaysia threw out Singapore from the union that followed colonial times. where did they teach this kind of history? the fact is that Chinese and Tamils were pissed off with the lazy Malays who were living (and still live) partly like parasites from the achievements of those ethnic groups which still have no full rights in Malaysia even if their ancestors immigrated two centuries ago. this was the reason why they opened their own and completely indepent island shop and prospered.
