    Perish the thought

    Database, Published on 28/07/2010

    » The alleged "plan" by Finance Minister Korn Chatikavanij to change the current yuppiephone concession contracts - and incidentally mortally wound Shin Corp and its No 1 network Advanced Info Service although that's not the purpose, perish the thought - has thrown business, government, regulators and even the Senate into a tizzy; the kindest people said Mr Korn had good intentions, lousy planning; others were not so charitable; they noted that his plan to issue AIS, Dtac of Norway and True Move of Thailand with 15-year licences was highly questionable in legal terms, and almost impossible to regulate; Anant Vorathitipong, vice-chairman of the Senate subcommittee on communications technology, warned that the minister could land the government in lawsuits up to taxpayers' necks.

    Do you speak English Khun Noy?

    By surapong, Created on: 26/07/2010, Last updated on: 07/01/2016

    » Ms Noy’s gonna need some English lessons in order to pass her tests to prove that her command of the language is good enough before being granted her visa. The number of Thai women from the Northeast marrying foreigners is rising every year. Over the past few months, almost 2,000 people have shown...

    • GenetheMachine commented : down from the BTS Phloen Chit station I saw people living in a hole in the ground where a sky scrapper building was going to be built. They lived in corrugated metal shacks without running water. I think to myself I must be more grateful because compared to them, I am rich. I have a roof over my home with running water and I have food in my stomach. I have a car. It is not a Mercedes but it is reliable. These poor people will never own a car. I have not been to Isan (or Esan). I have not seen how they live. If a woman from Isan were to come to my house she might consider herself rich. Being required to speak the language of the country you live in is not a bad thing. If I move to Thailand I will learn to speak Thai. I hope everyone has had plenty of notice so they will be prepared to pass this new test.

The people you mention 'living in a hole' above would be migrant workers living in their temporary camps while they are building condos etc. They come from our neighboring ASEAN nations and are earning many times the salary that they would be able to earn back home. Unfortunately there is very little work in their home countries therefore they are happy to work in a Country like Thailand that has less than 1% unemployment.

    Internet Site of the Week

    Gotfried. K, Published on 21/07/2010

    » Television on the Web will soon be a reality thanks to the ever-increasing size of information pipes and the ever-increasing quality of the information being pumped through those pipes.

And, for the time being at least, it works in the Kingdom perfectly fine.
