poweratradio Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I am looking forward to a better exchange rate with THB and USD. Any thoughts? Love a CDN boost too. Oil dependent economy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poweratradio Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 My hopes and my full support are in support of Sonya, my beautiful intelligent daughter. This time next year she will have finished a four year programming/coding degree, very likely with something close to a 3.6 GPA. She will be moving to Bangkok to look for a job in in her field of study. She was approached several times during her university training to quit her studies and take up a full-time modelling career. Wisely she made a forward-thinking decision to decline and do the odd part time gig but she has stuck to her projects. She surrounds herself with other young people, mostly young Thai women, who hold the same values and beliefs. Smart. Poised. Forward thinking. Sonya is a truly remarkable young Thai woman. It will be my pleasure to support her in all her endeavours as she heads out on the next phase of her journey. Now she can program codes that will hack all banks and send all the 1/2 (0.05) cents to your accounts. Good daughter. Birds of a feather! Apples falling from trees!

You'd be grabbing yourself now wouldn't you ;-? I'd suggest that you should be honest with your reply but that'd be expecting too much from a wreckdom of your caliber making the suggestions that you made.

daveAustin Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Think some are missing point of thread. They're asking how will things be for expats in general, not what are you personally wishing for yourself etc. Immigration -- tight in some areas making it harder for some people to stay, easier for others such as online 90 day reporting A look into expat earnings regard taxation, such as those in Thai Gulf oil & gas industry with salaries paid direct to offshore accounts I think we can expect more of the same regards 'government' tightening up on the freedoms of daily life. Inc internet freedom -- don't be surprised if this site gets targeted Ongoing corruption and more of the same regards stop & search for expats/tourists Tighter traffic/DUI laws Curtailing of girlie bar activities Ever rising prices despite low cost of oil Rise in real estate More animosity and violence toward foreigners Fewer smiles ... stuff like that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geronimo Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 On the negative side, the New Year has brought tons of annoying pop ups on TV offering hot deals. It's like a 3D maze navigating my way through them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravip Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 What changes ( good or bad ) for expats in Thailand to you anticipate or speculate will happen in the New Year? Reading the majority of posts here, is it difficult to predict? Thailand sure does attract the best expats! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next POTY will have to be someone new, I think you once mentioned. I think the way it works, my good sir, is that the most recently elected POTY is always the current one during the following year until the next one is elected at the end of each year. At least that's how tutsiwarrior played it, and he's my true life hero. So that would mean a dude who lives in Australia was the POTY all of last year until 31 December. And so it goes. That all said, my sources tell me it is merely a TITULAR position. Regrettably titular positions ain't my favorite sort of positions.
