craigt3365 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 What do you guys think of this? A bit too much advertising, but seems to be a nice (short) overview of Thailand: http://edition.pagesuite-professional.co.uk//launch.aspx?pbid=c2280fd9-b162-47c9-9020-198bbf8afcec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surangw Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 all very nice as long as you don't venture outside of the tourist areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkpanther99 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 It's a nice little brochure, the kind of thing you sit and read on a plane or in a coffee shop if you had 10 minutes to kill. It could be a useful guide for a Thailand newbie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbacke Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 No mention of the country's biggest tourist attraction? The auto-start videos are a turn-off, but I guess those wouldn't exist in a print version. Good English - perhaps they finally hired a native speaker to do the final edit. Good pictures, both as background and as spotlight. I'd have changed a few things, but overall a very good job. A- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razer Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Its OK but the hook sounds a lot like Burger King. The Thai Airways ad looks a lot like the brochure for an internaional BKK university. Be nice to see some things for families and one day excursions. Be nice to see photos and dates of some events like the BKK World Puppet Carnival, and BKK International Street Show 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcp0761 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Wow --- great bathroom reading material. At a quick glance, I don't see any comments on "martial law" or "tourist safety/security". While Thailand does have some nice 5-star hotels, are most people staying in 5-star hotel? Thailand is an attractive tourist destination - I think the brochure is shooting high and a little excessive as the brochure is 26 pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post samuijimmy Posted November 4, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2014 all very nice as long as you don't venture outside of the tourist areas. Why is that then? Some of the nicest places I have been in Thailand, are out of the mainstream tourists areas ... it's really not a problem at all! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keestha Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 As far as Phangnga is concerned, they mention nice but relatively unknown Koh Yao Noi, but miss out on far better known Khao Lak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kan Win Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Was Kanchanaburi mentioned btw? Win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigt3365 Posted November 5, 2014 Author Share Posted November 5, 2014 I don't see any mention! There's an initial map that shows the "west", but then I don't see a chapter on it. As mentioned above, for somebody coming here for the first time, this would be a quick, perhaps interesting, read. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or for the first timers and those that have been to Thailand many times, as well as the local Expats that have not seen the real Thailand, well take a trip with me on your computer ect. :- http://www.pbase.com/win13/root&view=tree and I hope you all enjoy the show.
