Politics, Economy… The situation is worsening in Thailand.
The country is on a bumpy road. “Once again” we could say, due to the history.
But this time, it’s different.
The key to understand the present turmoil is the inevitable disparition of King Bhumibol, and his succession.
A great power play is unfolding.
The King has so much power on the soul of his people, that this event could have tremendous consequences on the country.
The purpose of this blog is to help foreigners (us, farangs) to avoid the propaganda, to try to correctly assess the situation. Many of us have interests and affection for this country.
As for myself, I live most of the time in Thailand. But hopefully, I do travel a lot in Europe. It allows me to… balance my views. And to keep a relative sanity.
I do apologize to my readers. I try my best to avoid mistakes (wrong spellings and other grammar issues), but English is not my native language.

Baht strengthens- real estate suffers
However, we expect the impact of the strong Baht to be more negative than positive on the real estate sector.”

Great blog, would you be interested in a link exchange with my site? (www.bangkokdiaries.com)
Could I reproduce a few of your posts there, with full credits to you and your blog included?
I think that the ICT may find this website at some point. How can we organize to defend it and similar ones and the views expressed here? Any ideas?
-> Sanamjun. Do not worry. I think the ICT has many other things to do right now, rather than to take interest in this blog
First thing on their agenda : to find a new job… I remind you that we have a “new” team at the government… And they must be really pissed off… ICT has “played” with many of the pro-Thaksin websites since the Coup.
However, I warn you, I can’t keep comments referring to controversial rumors linked to private life, like you did in another comment.
fair enough, thai crisis. Let’s give the royalty a private life. I’ve been here too long, perhaps. So….sorry. Wasn’t it nice to see HRH Crown Prince…opening the new session of parlaiment?
Really love this blog. Have for some time now. But it got banned a while backa nd I thought you were done in Thailand. Only this week did I rediscover your feed was working again.
I’ve quoted you in a story on the “Russian Invasion” i just wrote on my blog. Click my name to get there.
Hi The Ghost, don’t worry, I’m still there, TC was not banned. And why it would be ?
