2 week millionaire replaced by billionaire

friend just back from first low season. great trip as always. compares to high season cheaper hotels,etc.

the P4P market not so much. maybe juts us or not. girls rates and bar have gone up. we figured in exchange rate changes

from previous trips.😪 the strong baht is killing it. average 30% cut. that jumps what use to be the mill to bill.

just our 2 bahts worth.

Strong Baht?

Last year was better, but I’ve seen far, far more worst.

Strong baht 30 vs world currency. weak baht 50 vs world currency,  the EEC project to make them stronger

has hurt the tourist industry. ( not cheap anymore.) powers at be want strong economic base. it comes at a price.

In Las Vegas they say they have charged parking and add ons like this, we haven't got that in pattaya.  Just imagine if they suddenly said you have to pay to park your motorbike outside a bar.

Maybe that would reduce the number of bikes that clutter up the streets....
