I knew the word MEGA was in the first sentence before reading it.

And how much for entry, shows, etc. please? Anyone know prices yet?

[Minnehaha]

do we have to give our name and phone number? 

how will they verify we are TV members?

is it as simple as "Mention Thai Visa" and be welcomed with the niceties?

I stayed in an AirBnB right next door for a couple weeks about 4 months ago.  Suffice to say, ShowDC is a joke between the girlfriend and I.  I got food poisoning the first time I went to the food court.  The mall is usually uncomfortably empty, except for big groups of asian tourists.  The restaurants are somewhat unique, but overpriced compared to the standard offerings.  We didn't avail ourselves of any of the tourist perks, somewhat unfortunately in retrospect.  Personally I wouldn't go out of my way to go back.  There were a good number of coffee shops though, so we did visit often for that reason.  It's definitely nice inside.  But it's really not aimed at locals at all, it's aimed at people who don't know better who are duped into paying the high prices at the stores.

I wondered who own all those empty shopping Mall in Bangkok?  They are now destroying the charms of Sukhumvit from Emporium to Soi 14, I hear soon to Soi 8.  British Embassy soon also going.  Do they think that tourists do not have shopping centers in their country except the Laotian, Cambodian and Vietnamese?  All Thai people that used to live on Sukhumvit were forced to sell and they now left this area.  Why all the construction / destruction of Thailand heritage?  Also food stalls are disappearing, any thought for the hard working poors?

...any thought for having a country with a bit of character. Car parks, shopping malls and condo blocks dont count as character!!
