    Using existing networks to run 3G is too much like common sense

    Database, Don Sambandaraksa, Published on 03/03/2010

    » 3G auctions for the rest of us before the end of this year? Should we rejoice at the progress that the four new Knights of Truffle and Cupcake, sorry, National Telecommunication Commissioners, have made, or is one to despair at the naivete that such talk brings? The problem is not so much about pushing ahead with 3G, but what to do with the existing 2G infrastructure.

    Myopic view ignores increasing convergence

    Database, Don Sambandaraksa, Published on 31/03/2010

    » How much should Channel 3 pay for its 10-year concession extension? Half a billion baht? One billion? How about something along the lines of a trillion and a half? Broadcasting and telecommunications are converging in more ways than one and perhaps Thailand should rethink whether it actually needs a spectrum-hogging UHF broadcaster in this day and age, and if the resources could be put to better use elsewhere.

    foreigners have got no rights?

    By majoy, Created on: 24/03/2010, Last updated on: 12/04/2010

    » We moved to this new house six months ago and everything is fine except for the noisy dogs next door. I spoke to the owner and asked if they could make their dogs quiet and she said it's not their dogs fault but the dog opposite who always stand outside their gate and make their dogs bark...how ridiculous!...

    • Eggmeng commented : Several posters have mentioned "attitude" and how foreigners should either try to adopt a Thai attitude towards life's minor inconveniences, or stay "home" where a mindset change is not necessary. However I don't think the ability of Thais to tolerate noise is due to their attitude. More, it is a matter of conditioning from an early age. But what is the cost of this conditioning to a populace's intellect and mental health? Have any studies ever been done? Have there been any connections made between the disturbingly low IQ scores that Thai children are getting, and their exposure to too much noise and far too much TV and other garbage stimulus in general? Also I find that attention spans and what Buddhists would call "mindfullness" (others might call it focus) are very poor here. Now having said that, I have been living in Thailand for almost two decades now. Perhaps it is just as bad these days in developed countries and these are simply ills of the modern age.

    Dysfunctional campaign

    Database, Published on 03/02/2010

    » Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva announced that he expects third generation phone service before New Year's Eve; he then announced why there probably won't be any; in a speech to mark the fifth anniversary of the Magnificent Seven National Telecommunications Commission, Mr Abhisit set out the conflicting criteria he expects to see in Asia's last, most dysfunctional 3G campaign: service before the end of the year after fair bandwidth auctions that favour small Thai telecom operators; on one hand, "3G services can no longer be postponed," he insisted, but on the other, the NTC must bias bidding to favour a more competitive structure; the English translation of this speech: DTac of Norway and AIS of Shingapore have way too much market power now and 3G contracts must show that.

    Cool response from agents

    Business, Imtiaz Muqbil, Published on 29/03/2010

    » The tourism component of the Asean Competitiveness Enhancement (ACE) project, funded by the US Agency for International Development (USAID), yielded yet another poor result last week when a presentation to the Association of Thai Travel Agents drew a low turnout.
