Andrew Hall of Aberdeen is unable make it to Thailand for his annual holiday this year so he decided to do something for a good cause. Andrew’s son Daniel inspired his decision. “I first discovered Thailand about 12 years ago and have been married to my wife (from Suphanburi) for seven years. It is mainly because of the fact that many children are not as fortunate as our four year old son Daniel that I would like to make this donation.” Andrew traded 7,500 FreePlayo points for a 5,000 Baht donation to the Melissa Cosgrove Children’s Foundation (MCCF) sponsored by FreePlayo.com. FreePlayo.com is a free online game where players win points that they can trade for sponsored prizes. “I have thoroughly enjoyed playing FreePlayo,” said Andrew. “I was initially looking at winning enough points for a few of the excellent prizes on offer but due to work commitments I will be unable to visit Thailand this year. “Rather than letting my points sit and do nothing I decided to put the points to a good cause. Having had a look at the Facebook page and the information on FreePlayo regarding the MCCF I thought this would be the ideal solution.” Tracy Cosgrove, principal fundraiser for the MCCF, said: “I wish to thank Andrew and FreePlayo for their generosity. And I hope to meet Andrew and his family when they are next in Thailand.” Ms Cosgrove says that she is delighted to be associated with FreePlayo, “not only for the donation Rewards that benefit the kids, but also for the fantastic exposure our work has received on FreePlayo’s website and social networks”. Ms Cosgrove has given hope to thousands of youngsters in Thailand through the MCCF, which she established in 2003 after seeing first-hand the terrible conditions in which children are forced to live. Her transforming work in orphanages, with street children, and for youngsters with AIDS and disabilities has received international recognition. Now based in Pattaya, MCCF is working with the booming construction industry to improve the lives of children living with their parents in squalid labour camps around the cities of Pattaya and Bangkok.

The Sanuk Day Care Center in Jomtien has a new colour printer/scanner/copier thanks to the generosity of a FreePlayo player. A Melissa Cosgrove Children’s Foundation (MCCF) project, Sanuk is a day care facility and nursery for the children of building and construction industry workers in the Pattaya area. Keith Storey, Group Sales Manager of The Nova Group, has played FreePlayo nearly every day since he registered on the free website in January. On March 7 he struck lucky with five correct logos and won the top prize of 5,000 FreePlayo points. With another 2,500 points accumulated through a combination of winning plays and friend invitations, Mr Storey had enough points to claim the 5,000 Baht donation to the MCCF sponsored by FreePlayo. “There are plenty of great cash and prize Rewards on FreePlayo,” said Mr Storey. “However, I know the fantastic work Tracy (Cosgrove) does through MCCF and thought that the sponsored donation would be a fun and fulfilling way to use my points.” At the top of MCCF founder Tracy Cosgrove’s wish list was a printer for the new Sanuk Day Care Center, which will receive its first intake of children in April. On March 16, FreePlayo co-founders Matt O’Sullivan and David Gillbanks purchased a Canon printer/scanner/copier and took it to Sanuk to meet with Ms Cosgrove and Mr Storey. “I wish to thank Keith and FreePlayo for their generosity,” said Ms Cosgrove. “We are delighted to be associated with FreePlayo; not only for the donation Rewards that benefit the kids, but also for the fantastic exposure our work has received on FreePlayo’s website, blog, and social networks.” Tracy Cosgrove has given hope to thousands of youngsters in Thailand through the MCCF, which she established in 2003 after seeing first-hand the terrible conditions in which children are forced to live. Her transforming work in orphanages, with street children, and for youngsters with AIDS and disabilities has received international recognition; and inspired hundreds of people who have been touched by her courageous story. Now based in Pattaya, MCCF is working with the booming construction industry to improve the lives of children living with their parents in squalid labour camps around the cities of Pattaya and Bangkok.

An exciting new online branding and marketing platform ‘FreePlayo.com’ launched in Pattaya in January 2012. Encouraged by its early growth in user numbers, an impressively high ratio of repeat visits, and favorable user behavior trends, FreePlayo is keen to broaden its focus nationwide. Front and Centre Conceived and developed in Thailand, FreePlayo is a simple website in which users play a free game of chance every eight hours to accumulate FreePlayo points. Players can exchange their points for sponsored cash and prize rewards. Repeat branding is the core benefit of FreePlayo to sponsors, whose logos are the focus of the rewarding online game. “Whereas most online advertising plays second fiddle to content, advertising is front and centre on FreePlayo,” said FreePlayo Director and Co-Founder David Gillbanks. “Everyone I have asked who has played FreePlayo more than a few times can name most if not all of the sponsors of our website.” FreePlayo user Pavit Grover, whose family owns the long-established Ali Baba Indian Restaurant (a FreePlayo sponsor), agrees: “There are sponsors on FreePlayo that I had never heard of before, but because of FreePlayo I know that they exist and if I ever need their services I could go to them.” Compelling FreePlayo gives sponsors the opportunity to build upon players’ brand awareness through tactical promotions or strategic marketing messages. Sponsors’ messages and promotions are linked to their respective logos during game-play and are compiled in a searchable directory of promotions that site visitors spend on average three minutes browsing. Users may act upon these messages via email and web links or share them on social networks. FreePlayo can help sponsors conceive, write, and design compelling promotions and messages. FreePlayo’s directors have more than three decades of advertising, communications, graphic design, and online marketing experience. “The more compelling and interesting the message, the higher the click-through and share rates,” said FreePlayo Director and Co-Founder Matt O’Sullivan. “The most effective sponsor content on FreePlayo is enjoying click-through rates that are far higher than the industry average.” FreePlayo adds further value by pushing out sponsor messages to its followers on Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace. The FreePlayo Pattaya blog offers yet another value-added way for sponsors to get their news out.

Sounds like a great excuse to wake up early (or stay out all night!)

I haven't read the whole thread, however I'm sure it has been mentioned: Tequila Reef Cantina on Soi 7 Pattaya Beach Rd (http://shar.es/WBUND); excellent Mexican, Cajun, and all-American food and a very chilled atmosphere to boot.

Alibaba's at the beach end of Pattaya Klang is very high standard. One friend described it as "immense"! :-) They're doing a masala chai (tea) promotion here http://shar.es/WBUUe.
