Any idea what's going on. I'm here in bophut no electric since 8pm

I don't know about True so called ultra 200 mb or anything else they have. I'm sure the speed is really fast if your just connecting to websites solely based in thailand, otherwise for connections going international i'm sure the speed has got to be quite slow. From what I remember thailand has done nothing major to improve the international gateways connections. I do remember TOT started last year laying down fiber optics but knowing how poorly the infrastructure might have done I suspect its not worth the money to get tot high end packages maybe I would be wrong if so someone please post a speed test during the day time when internet traffic is at its highest point. look forward to hearing more about this

I can see the number of reasons why people would leave thailand. Everyone here I believe has had many good and bad experiences, some seem to have had more bad experiences than most though. Some issues though

Friendship - I to have found it hard to find people to have a good friendship with. Although I am lucky though over time I have made 2 friends but I consider them quality friends than quantity. Between the 3 of us we can share many topics, debates, ideas but the other thing is all 3 of us work in the hotel industry. I made a point one time which was be careful who you talk to and try to associate with, there are some good people here out there but there are also bad people as well.

Thailand in general - there are so many aspects in this range that all I could simply state is thailand like any other country in the world has problems, although I am grately that thailand so far is not in the range as say a country like north korea, iraq. I know thats to far to put in but I say things here in thailand could always be worse.

like many of us on here we are just the foreigner when thai's no longer are willing to tolerate foreigners and decide to kick us all out I'll simply say thank you for letting be work here and wish them good luck. again something different to say the least but i'm grateful for all the good and bad experiences I have had here, as it has help me grow and change not only in my opinions but on many things has well over the 8 years I have lived here. I have no regrets about being here even when at times I have been annoyed and frustrated.

I will continue to stay here in thailand as long as I can it may not be perfect but I call it home

About five million tourists visit Samui each year.

does that number include the amount of burmese who pass through the island as well. look i know thai officals like to put up ridiculous and lying numbers but 5 million, I'd love to know how they came up with that kind of unrealistic number. tourism here is less than 600,000 and on the decline. that number is based on from report from C9hotelworks.


low carbon island is part of the plan to cut Thailand’s energy use by 45 per cent by 2035

  cut energy use + thai mentality =
