The nearest dream for TCEB’s leader is to create stronger demand for Thai MICE business. Over the next several years there will be more new convention facilities coming up. Consider your nearest mission first to prove that you can achieve it before dreaming the impossible dream.

I want to know what “Positively yours” is on, because they don’t appear to serve it at Soi Cowboy.

The positive side of the coin is that Thailand infrastructure (both hardware and software) must be speedily developed to cater for the large number of visitors coming for the World Expo 2020.

I invite other TTR readers to think about this: I have NEVER MET anyone who even considered visiting an Expo. Does anyone out there know anybody? It’s the most absurd waste of resources and thus perfectly suited to this waste of space.

Just look at Greece and the fact that they lost the farm on the Olympics. Nothing more to say here, because Thailand will never be ready for such an event. Montreal is still paying for Expo 67, almost 40 years later. Thailand is too small, backward and corrupt to handle such an enormous project. Nice junkets, though, for the chosen few to Shanghai. Time to grow up and accept third world status.
