Jim walker Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Pretty obvious that the army chaps are not using TAT’s special calculator with the extra zero’s on the end that does the calculations by itself monthly averages no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tingtongteesood Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Well every foreigner with a visa they turn away is one less to add to the numbers, self inflicted idiocy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechnikaIII Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 they can put a big sign everywhere, tourists only welcome to spend your money for MAX 30 days, than you are out I don't understand. Those that are on a 60 day tourist visa, Are they hunted down after 30 days and ordered to leave the country ? No. belg is just wasting discussion space with mindless, unhelpful ranting.

khrab Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 (edited) No more visa runs by air. How many thousands passengers less? Edited July 19, 2014 by khrab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AloisAmrein Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 TAT and airport authorithies should ask the immigration, they could explain it. Tourists not welcome, visa granted, but entry refused. The visa run crackdown will turn into a tourist arrival crackdown. Amazing Thailand, they want the money of the tourists but they refuse entry to tourists. So let's spend the money elsewhere, e.g. in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Indonesia. All these countries are beautiful and welcome tourists, at cheaper price then in Thailand. And more friendly people.

mercman24 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 my view is that 99% of visa runners are not tourists, just ask yourself that , honestly, yes you know who you are, its not rocket science, that is who the people in authority are after.

Alwyn Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 who did this accounting? "from the beginning of 2014, a total of 44 million passengers have passed". And "by the end of this year, the number of passengers will only reach up to 48-50 million" but "the average number of passenger arrivals at Suvarnabhumi airport stands at 110,000 per day." so per month at least 3 million to be added. 5 months left for this year is another 15 million to arrive. 44 + 15 is 59 million. at least in the western world, maybe in thailand there is another accounting valid... I did the sum on my CASID calculator that I bought at Patpong and came up with the same figures. Is that the same place that sell Bolex watches?

Thai at Heart Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 What exactly does the airport have an arrivals target for? Do they get a bonus if they hit it? What do they do to increase the figures? Or is it more that they are reporting a drop in arrivals more than a missed target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BossBar Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 The Thai press should come up with some way to calculate the prostitution income and prostitution masquerading as Thai massage. if you go about reconciling Thai figures , even on the surface, it's obvious that Thai prostitution trade is an indispensable to the Thai economy. The Thai press is in denial as to its magnitude and importance, but we never hear about it. What has this got to do with: Suvarnabhumi Airport to miss passenger arrival target this year ?
