jcb2001 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Why can't the opposition just keep quiet and allow the government to get on with misruling the country? Stop creating conflict with all this reporting of so called price rises. The government should be closing down any website, suing any person, or group, responsible, and sending a red rapid response team to ensure that it stops. And, in line with recent actions, will probably start doing so very soon. I for one think there's not enough of Yingluck in the media. Her trip to Japan should have received 24 hour live coverage on every channel, and surely there's space for another billboard or two with her picture on it on the highway to the airport? Any opposition slots need to be taken over and replaced with our dear sister leader.Love your sarcasim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosha Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Will the government minister care to come and take my wife away. She won't stop asking for more money. She keeps saying prices are up. I fear she may be crazy, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thait Spot Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Never fear Thai people. The government is going to build a high speed rail network that will surely bring down the price of food "or am I imagining it?" The US is also coming to the rescue with cheap pork Vote PTP - things are on the up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzMick Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 A PTP spokesperson said "Even if prices are up, we've never had it so good!" I'm not sure which "we" she was referring to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connda Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Yeah, the chicken I used to buy for 25 baht per piece is now 40 baht. The Thai restaurants I frequent have all raised prices by between 5 to 15 baht based on the dish. The prices at the Chiang Mai food markets are a good 20 to 30% higher than when I got here 6 years ago. Nope! Move along folks. Nothing to see hear. Bad Democrats, bad Democrats. How dare they insinuate that there is food price inflation. Well, really, it's not just Thailand. All fairly developed countries statistically manipulate the CPI and Inflation calculations to show the public that there is little to no inflation; but all you have to do is open your eyes, walk down the street, and compare prices to a few years ago. But on the bright side, I can get 3% interest on my funds in my Thai bank. Better that the 0.01% that I get on passbook savings in the US. Hell, I make maybe less than $1 in interest per year from my credit union. That's pretty laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pi Sek Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Will the government minister care to come and take my wife away. She won't stop asking for more money. She keeps saying prices are up. I fear she may be crazy, If she keeps on with these slanderous statements, I would contact Prompong's office and get him to raise a defamation charge. For the good of the country, of course.

wolfmanjack Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Sorry Pheu Thai, but Thailand is facing real inflation now. 4 months ago, Pork at Big C was selling for 95 baht a kilo. Yesterday, the price is 159 baht. Thai T.V, reported that the price of eggs had risen because of the hot weather- the chickens were traumatised. Amazing. If bacon is up, then the pigs will fly ??? Look people know that prices are on the up, they know because their wallet is emptying quicker. Isn't the government aware of this.

Look people know that prices are on the up, they know because their wallet is emptying quicker. Isn't the government aware of this. Actually I can vouch for the affect of the hot weather on the eggs. My chickens have pretty much stopped laying when the weather hit 100F+ and they still have not started laying again. I also had several die due to heat stress. The weather is not the only thing though. The price of chicken food increased by a little over 10% a couple of months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valentine Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 " Govt lashes out..................." anuttama amornwiwat.jpg As a government spokesman, this nice young lady doesn't look the type to lash out at anything. Does she? She does kind of have a devilish look in her eye.. Is she the one who went AWOL to interview Mr T in Dubai & produced a flattering book about him? Been rewarded with a cushy job then. I suppose that those who say prices are not up actually do not shop for basic necessities. In the past few years rice has virtually doubled in price yet there are mountains of it rotting away in storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby nz Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Sure prices have risen mainly for the basics that everyone must buy, except the very rich who never go near a market. Wondered how long this young lady will be in the job? Yingluck will not be happy with another pretty face in the news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
