s this month’s birth sign is Scorpio, one would expect ‘phruetsachikayon’, to have a sting in its tail. It doesn’t. There are two major events this month: Loi Krathong and Vajiravudh Day. From 6th to 8th November crowds of Thais will gather in befuddled amusement to watch farangs try to float their kratongs out to sea despite an incoming tide and an on-shore breeze. Kratongs are little containers with a candle, joss sticks and a coin to thank the river goddess and get rid of their past year’s sins; a bit like going to Confession only with wet feet.
www.pattayatrader.com
You have a choice of materials for your krathong: banana leaves which take a long time to bio-degrade; bread which degrades quickly providing food for the fish and any peckish farang who missed dinner; Styrofoam which hardly ever degrades and can choke the exhausts of jet-ski drivers which is the only good thing to be said for this material. If by some miracle the float takes to the high seas, do not attempt to take a photo as your hands are slippery with sweat and sea water. Your camera, as you will see, does not float. The act of floating away the candle raft is symbolic of letting go all one's grudges, anger and defilements, so that one can start life afresh on a better foot. (Dropping your camera in salt water may negate this.) If you are a non-smoker this will require buying a lighter which can disintegrate into a hundred pieces if made in Cambodia. If it is a home-produced lighter it will get very hot, very quickly and cause you to howl with pain in front of your tirac causing huge loss of face and a considerable quantity of skin too. People will also cut their fingernails and hair and add them to the raft as a symbol of letting go of the bad parts of oneself. (This is difficult to do holding a

lighter in calf deep water.) Many Thais believe that floating a raft will bring good luck. Monday 25th November is Vajiravudh Day named after Phra Bat Somdet Phra Ramathibodi Si Sintharamaha Vajiravudh Phra Mongkut Klao Chao Yu Hua or Phra Bat Somdet Phra Poramentharamaha Vajiravudh Phra Mongkut Klao Chao Yu Hua, as he is known familiarly. Rama VI was a product of Sandhurst and Christ Church, Oxford, where he was a member of the exclusive Bullingden Club beloved of so many British MPs, including the present British Prime Minister. Rama VI was the sixth monarch of Siam from the bloodline of the House of Chakri. He is known for his efforts to promote Siamese nationalism – among other things he established the thai scouts movement. His reign was characterized by moving the kingdom towards democracy. On November 25th in 1925 he passed away and the throne was overtaken by his brother Prajadhipok. King Rama VI only had one child, a daughter. She was born only two hours before King Rama died and he got to have a quick glimpse of her before taking his last breath. The new king named her Princess Bejaratana.

Chachoengsao - Gods and parrots
I
had forgotten just how much there is to see in the province of Chachoengsao. Our latest trip just touched the northern edges of what's available. No matter as we will cover more of the province in a future article. At this point I have to admit that I will leave some questions unanswered in the article, and one of these is why does this province have a love affair with the Hindu god Ganesh? He's the one with an elephant's head and four arms and has always struck me as being a rather jolly looking god. Now Chachoengsao is fairly religious place having some important temples, but why there is a proliferation of statues of Ganesh, I don't know.
Temple Wat Prong Akat being renewed Our first stop this time was Wat Prong Akat. This is about 14 kilometers north of Chachoengsao on road 3200. The entrance is on the right and for those with GPS the position is 13.7945째N, 101.0527째E. The temple is visible across the rice fields for a considerable distance as the gigantic golden chedi built on the second floor of the temple stands out along with an equally massive sitting Ganesh statue. The temple is a work in progress with a new building in place of the old temple. We have stopped by this temple for a few years to see how the work is progressing and when it's finished it will be outstanding, not least for its massive size. On the upper level are eight statues of temple giants (yaks) guarding the large golden chedi with marble paving around that. The covered ground floor has statues and areas for praying. Of course being in Chachoengsao apart from the separate giant Ganesh statue outside there is another, smaller and in gold colour, on the ground floor guarded by rat statues. Rats are connected with Ganesh in Hindu mythology. About all that's left of the old temple now is the large original bell awaiting a new tower to hold it.
Suanpalm Farmnok Palm and Parrot Resort
Our next stop was the Suanpalm Farmnok, or the Palm and Parrot Resort. You get there by following road 3200 back towards town for just over 9 kilometres and then taking a left turn on the road signposted to Bang Kaeo which runs alongside a canal. Take
52 52
PATTAYA TRADER
Issue 169 | NOVEMBER 2014
TRAVEL & ATTRACTIONS
a right turn after about 8½ kilometres onto a smaller soi signposted to Suan Palm. The resort's entrance is just about one kilometre on the right. For GPS users this is at 13.7460° N, 101.1578° E. Again we were visiting a work in progress, but still well worth the visit. As its name suggests the large park is full of parrots with a significant breeding program underway and many palm trees of different types. Other birds are well represented including both black and white swans. Around a large lake rather pleasant cabins and a restaurant are available for those wishing to stay at the resort. There are various facilities such as a rock climbing wall, bicycling and a petting zoo with deer and sheep. They were building some Thai style wooden houses and what I think is going to be a floating market. Even now it would be a good place to take young kids for the weekend. Having said all this the stars have to be the colourful Amazonian macaw parrots and the Australian cockatoos with which you can get up close and personal.
Temple Wat Saman Rattanaram for lunch Next stop is not far from the parrots. Start by going back the way you came by turning left out of the resort and left again a kilometre up onto the road by the side of the canal. After just over 3 kilometres take another left turn which should be signposted to the Bang Pakong Dyke and Wat Saman Rattanaram. You will find the bridge over one part of the river at just less than 4 kilometres down this road and get a marvellous view of the water gates which are there to protect upriver agriculture from salt water incursion. For GPS users this is at 13.7079° N, 101.1353°E. Using the bridge puts you on an island made by the channel you have just crossed cutting of a meander in the river. Following the road would take you to another bridge built over three more water gates and the eastern side of the Bang Pakong River, but don't do that yet as just past the first bridge on the left is the entrance to Wat Saman Rattanaram. This is the chance to see just how lively and commercial a Thai temple can be. If you are ready for lunch you will find plenty of places to eat in this busy temple complex. Even coffee drinkers are catered for by a well-known franchised cafe.
Gigantic pink, sleeping Ganesh statue
to undergo rituals to bring luck or fulfil wishes. One party we saw were chanting while walking in a circle under a life-size statue of an elephant. I think that has something to do with getting pregnant. Definitely worth a visit. Next issue: Danny Speight will take you on a re-visit to Chachoengsao, going to the famous white temple Wat Sothon, to the Chachoengsao Fort and to Wat Pho Bang Khla, which is a temple filled with big, fruit eating, flying bats.
It's hard to know where to begin with this large temple. It's very much on the Thai tourist roster both from those living in Chachoengsao, its neighbouring provinces and from Bangkok. To be honest, and with no cynicism implied, you could easily spend a whole day at Wat Saman Rattanaram. There is just so much there. Giving just a few parts a mention; it has a Chinese temple with giant statues of Chinese gods and a row of life-size wax figures GETTING THERE of venerable dead monks. At the market area you will find local products and it's worth loading up with palm sugar if you believe Chachoengsao will be the first province you enter after in its benefits against normal sugar. leaving Chonburi when driving from Pattaya to Bangkok. Both Chinese and Indian deities are well represented You will probably notice crossing the Bang Pakong River along with more traditional Buddhist practice. Of course being whether on the motorway or the Bangna-Trat Road. From the Chachoengsao there is a gigantic pink Ganesh statue, this one is in intersection of the motorway, Route 7, and highway 314 the the sleeping position. It seems to me that many people come here town of Chachoengsao is just over 17 kilometers to the north.

Health benefits of 5 alien vegetables
Over the past decade, the number of not so Thai vegetables that have made their way onto the list of ingredients of practically every Thai dish is staggering. Everything from the fiery red chili peppers which are to blame for the often heard, “Wow – this is incredibly hot” reaction when an atomically spicy serving of Gaaeng Phanaeng Gai is sampled, to the roasted peanuts or potatoes that are responsible for the, “Wow – this is incredibly delicious” response that follows an eater's first mouthful of the wonderfully sweet, savory and gently spiced Gaaeng Matsaman Neua are non-native to the Kingdom of Thailand. The above examples, along with a whole host of other expatriate edibles that are currently present in many of Thailand’s signature dishes have all been endowed with a veritable cornucopia of nutrients. The following inventory will help sort out the health benefits of a number of these would be Thai vegetables that have come from afar.
Bell Pepper/ Capsicum or Prík Yùak Aside from providing a splash of color and some much needed crunch to any Thai stir-fry, red, green and yellow bell peppers are a terrific source of body building nutrients, dietary fiber, and immune system boosting antioxidants. Regardless of their hue, one cup of chopped bell peppers contains 100 per cent of the daily value of vitamin C, which is necessary for healthy tissue and immunity to infections and diseases of all stripes and colors. All varieties of the bell pepper are rich in vitamin C, but those of the red shade contain a significantly higher amount of that particular vitamin. Vitamin E, which is noted for its role in maintaining the health of both skin and hair is also present in abundance. Bell peppers are also endowed with a generous supply of red blood cell supporting folate, and vitamin K, without which your blood would not be able to clot properly. The natural chemical called capsaicin, which is present in chilies of all descriptions is said to reduce bad cholesterol, control diabetes, and ease the pain of any inflammation.

Carrot or Kae-rôt The common carrot is one Western vegetable that seems to be encroaching on traditional Thai cuisine with increasing frequency. Even if you aren’t Bugs Bunny this is actually a good thing, as many consider it to be the ultimate health food. Accordingly, one half cup of this elongated root vegetable will set you up with 25 calories, 6 grams of carbohydrates, 3 grams of sugar, one gram of protein, and 210 per cent of the average adults’ requirement of vitamin A. The source of that A-list vitamin is beta-carotene, an antioxidant which is responsible for the carrot’s bright orange color. In addition, carrots also contain Vitamins C, E, and K, and are loaded with minerals, including: calcium, iron, potassium, folate, manganese, magnesium, and zinc. There is currently overwhelming evidence to suggest that consumption of any antioxidant rich vegetable (or fruit) on a regular basis can significantly reduce the risk of developing lung, colon, and prostrate cancers, as well as leukemia.

| EXPAT LIVING Cauliflower or Dtôn Gà-làm Dòk Nutritionists like to say, “If you want to eat healthy, avoid bland pasty white foods and eat colorful.” Cauliflower however, shouldn’t be written off as it’s the exception to this rule. Like the carrot this cruciferous vegetable, which is sometimes called white broccoli is turning up in more and more Thai stir-fries, curries, and noodle dishes. Cauliflower is low in both sugar and calories while being high in cancer and disease preventing antioxidants. It’s loaded with fiber which promotes weight loss and healthy digestion, and choline, which is essential for maintaining a good memory and one’s learning ability. Consuming just one cup of white broccoli will provide your body with the following percentages of the recommended daily requirement: 77 per cent of vitamin C, 20 percent of vitamin K, 10 per cent of Vitamin B6 and folate. Mineral wise, this colorless vegetable offers up smaller quantities of thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium, and manganese.
Peanut or Tùa Lí Long From salads to curries, delicious, crunchy and nutty, peanuts have been a staple in Thai cuisine for as long as I’ve been eating it. Technically speaking the peanut is a legume, not a vegetable. But since these oil bearing seeds have been blessed with so many nutty nutrients, they are well worth taking a closer look at. The little legumes are an excellent source of protein. They are packed with vitamins B1, B6, and E, and an excellent source for essential minerals such as copper, manganese, potassium, calcium, iron, magnesium, molybdenum, zinc and selenium. Roasted, raw or otherwise, peanuts are rich in heart healthy monounsaturated fats. They also surprisingly have an antioxidant content that is equal to or greater than blackberries, strawberries, apples, carrots and beets.

Potato or Man Fà-ràng The lovely potato has long been considered to be lacking in healthy nutrients because of its starchy composition. As long as this tuber is not processed or deep fried, the guys wearing white lab coats swear that it’s loaded with vitamins, minerals and other compounds that benefit human health. In fact one medium sized spud contains 164 calories, no cholesterol; almost zero grams of fat, very little sodium, and plenty of fiber, protein, and carbohydrates. If you think the potato lacks vitamins and minerals, think again. A mid-size potato meets 30 per cent vitamin B6, 51 per cent vitamin C, 2 per cent calcium, 9 per cent iron, 12 per cent magnesium, and 25 per cent potassium of the recommended daily requirements of the above mentioned nutrients. The minerals phosphorous, niacin, folate, choline and zinc are also present in less significant quantities. For a variety of reasons, regularly consuming a properly prepared potato is said to be beneficial for maintaining bone health, lowering blood pressure, decreasing the risk of heart disease, improving skin quality, and preventing the formation of cancer cells.

Up Your Soi by Neil Hutchison
Second Road Soi 7
The entrance to Soi 7 from Second Road doesn’t look very exciting and, in fact, you would miss it if you blinked. Even the ubiquitous 7-Eleven on the corner (tell your friends) is camouflaged and difficult to see from street level. However, as if to believe that image, there is no such thing as a ‘quiet stroll’ along Soi 7; it is more like ‘running the gauntlet’. Conveniently supplied with no footpath, pedestrians using the roadway are forced to squeeze between oncoming vehicles, parked cars and motorcycles to survive. The situation of foreigners being ushered to the road’s edge by traffic is used to advantage by the female employees of the many drinking establishments. Once within their sphere of influence, the hopeless wanderer is easy prey to the clutches of the smiling ladies. And I love it.
Grassland and virgin forest After the 7-Eleven on the southern corner, the relatively new PJ DJ Bar & Guesthouse is followed by the expanded Flipper House Hotel. On my first trip to Thailand in 1998, a friend booked me into Flipper House because, as he explained, it was central and located in quiet little Soi 7. There was only one small bar in the soi plus a couple of restaurants while the rest

was grassland and virgin forest. He warned me to beware of snakes when walking to the beach. He is still right about the central location, but Soi 7 is anything but quiet these days. The snakes are still there but now they have two legs. On the right side of the street, the first bar is Aussie Pit Stop Bar followed by Shooters Guesthouse Sports and Coyote Bar, Rolling Live Beer Bar and Bubpha Beer Bar. This latter bar is the second oldest bar in Soi 7 and construction was completed at about the time I first booked into Flipper House. Back then it was called Big Tree Bar because it is located right next to a big tree, duh! In its heyday, it was a great place to party. It probably still is but, like most other bars in Fun Town, suffers from intense competition.
Aussies and Englishmen in harmony
After the small lane and Family Mart is Red Vanda Bar and Nick’s Bar, then Aussie Bar followed by Graham’s Bar (UK); their close proximity showing the world a fine example of the tolerance and friendship between these two great nations. This may be an interesting place to drink while watching international cricket or rugby,
with much jovial banter and friendly rivalry expected between the Aussie and English camps. World Wide Bar on the corner is popular and I guess one of the reasons is the discounted beer on offer all day and night. Opposite World Wide is 69ers Beer Bar, probably named after the year in which the owner was born. A small soi connecting Pattaya Central Road, Soi 7 and Soi 8 is next, but perhaps I will get back to that later. On the left is Olala Restaurant with open air seating and an extensive menu displayed outside. Rosie O’Grady’s restaurant is a long time resident of the soi as is The Pig & Whistle next door. All three restaurants serve great food and are well known to Pattaya expats. I have dined at both The Pig & Whistle and Rosie O’Grady’s (separate occasions, of course) and really enjoyed the tucker. Large portions bring tears to the eyes of an ex-boarding school inmate. At this point, Soi 7 starts to really heat up with action, but all that will have to wait until next time. One needs to be prepared so I’ll sit down for a well-deserved snack before heading further Up Your Soi.

a y a t t Pa NOVEMBER ISSUE PATTAYA BARGAIN HUNTER Welcome to Pattaya Bargain Hunter, my name is Belinda and before living in Pattaya I was a buyer in London’s West End. An
Frasers – Thappraya Road Although quite a recent addition to the Chateau Dale complex, Frasers above News Café is already set to be a landmark destination. Its owner “Stewart Froggy Fraser” and his efficient team have created a comfortable sports bar in a great location where you can sit at an air conditioned bar or booth with flat screen TV or watch the world go by from the comfy outside terrace. It even has a family room complete with playhouse for the kids. Check out their website, Facebook page and paper menus for daily special offers. Bargain Hunter went along to try out two : Thursday’s “All you can Eat Pizza” for 250 baht and Friday’s Wagyu steak for 350 baht. What was pleasing about the pizza offer was the fact that unlike some major Pizza chains who will server dried up slices, left sitting under the lights for too long, at Frasers you can choose from 4 options on their regular menu and be served a fresh pizza made just for you. My favourite was ½ seafood and ½ pepperoni and they will keep coming back depending on just how many you can eat! Friday’s Wagyu Steak night was a less gluttonous occasion and a really succulent piece of beef cooked as per order. Also I was pleased to see the Beer of the day was Tiger Light (my favourite) in the 5 beers in a bucket for 375 baht promotion.
important part of my job was to look out for items of quality, value and with that certain special something. Now I look out for bargains in and around Pattaya to share with you.
Girls we all need a night out once in a while and it might as well be at a venue that rewards us for partying in packs. The aforementioned Frasers offers 2 for 1 cocktails at any time so check out their Piña Colada and Banana Margaritas. Elsewhere you should aim to organize your night when the Ladies promotions are on, for example: * Flexx Club on Walking street offer ladies free shots of Tequila on Wednesdays * Access Inn on Third Road just up the road from Tony’s Fitness centre has a Buy 1 Bottle Get 1 free promotion for Ladies every Friday Night and this will again be the venue for the next “Souled Out” event. Always at Bargain Night, 8th November is the 3rd Anniversary Souled Out party when you can enjoy free flow red or white wine and San Miguel beer between 8-10p.m. when you pay your 400 baht entry ……… …- plus proceeds go to Charity. * Havana Bar at The Holiday Inn Beach Road will offer you buy one get one free on selected drinks if you have a party of 3 or more, and don’t forget it's spacious surroundings are very comfortable if you have a large party. Wherever you go, please remember not to drink and drive. Police activity has been stepped up to catch offenders and in a town of bargain, taxi prices is a risk you should not take.
Surfs Kitchen

always far busier than its neighbours. Excellent service and consistently good quality food are of course factors but their bargain prices make this a popular dining destination all year round. The sushi on offer is excellent plus my favourite dish Panang Gai (Chicken Curry) just tips 100 baht when served with steamed rice. Coconut shake is delicious here too !
Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf – Mike’s Mall I’m delighted that this chain has come to Pattaya in the newly modeled Mike’s Mall. For those of you looking for a change from Starbucks, give them a try. Although much can be said about the coffee and tea comparisons, to my mind the real bargain here is their orange juice. Why you ask? Well, because since coming to Thailand I’ve had some dreadful sickly, sherberty, strange drinks purporting to be orange. So the generously sized 65baht orange juice I enjoyed at Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf was a welcome treat! If you have any thoughts, suggestions or comments please write to me, “Belinda Bargain Hunter” at: pattayabargainhunter@outlook.com ALL PRICES AND OFFERS WERE CORRECT AT THE TIME OF GOING TO PRESS. NO RESPONSIBILITY CAN BE TAKEN FOR ANY OFFERS BEING WITHDRAWN OR OUT OF STOCK.
During the rainy season, if a restaurant is doing well that’s a pretty good sign. As we all know, this year tourist numbers have certainly been down and therefore during the last few months whilst driving along NOTE: All prices and offers were correct at the time of Jomtien beach road I have going to press. No responsibility can be taken for any noticed that Surf’s Kitchen is offers being withdrawn or out of stock.

A cold is a contagious viral disease that infects the soft lining (mucous membrane) of the nose. There are more than 100 different viruses that can result in a cold. The characteristic symptom is a runny nose and often a sore throat. Usually, it's a mild condition, with recovery taking place within about a week. But sometimes the same symptoms can be more serious – like influenza. Catching a cold is more common during wet season and affects children and adults of all ages. Most people will catch a cold two to four times a year.

5 easy ways to make a cold go away
How to avoid getting a cold A person is contagious from the day before the illness breaks out, until one to three days after they feel better. The infection is spread by airborne droplets, when the sufferer coughs or sneezes. It can also be spread by hand, if someone has the virus on their hands and then puts them close to their eyes or nose. This is actually the most common way of catching a cold. There are a few simple things you can do to avoid catching a cold: 1. If possible, stay away from people with colds. Don't shake their hand. 2. Avoid crowded places, where the risk of infection is greater. 3. Do not touch your nose or eyes after being in physical contact with somebody that has a cold. 4. Wash your hands thoroughly, especially after blowing your nose. 5. Keep rooms well aired.
3. Avoid sugar like it was the plague. Sugar damages your immune system. 4. Avoid all kinds of grains. Grains break down to sugar in your body. 5. Make sure to get enough sleep, exercise and be welcoming of even the slightest fever, cause fever is your body's way of making the virus disappear.
How to quickly get rid of the cold If the cold already kicked in, you can either wait it out for the week that it usually takes for a healthy body to heal itself. Or you can do something active to make the cold disappear rapidly. Your body's immune system needs your help. Most important is to get your D-vitamin resources up. Research has shown that most colds are a sympton of an underlying vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D is a potent antimicrobial agent, producing 200 to 300 different antimicrobial peptides in your body that kill bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Suboptimal vitamin D levels will significantly impair your immune response and make you far more susceptible to contracting colds, influenza, and other respiratory infections. There are 5 recommendations as to how to quickly get the cold to go away: 1. Expose yourself to the sun. It's the best D vitamin source. 2. Use a few drops of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in each ear, let it sink in for 5-10 minutes until the bubbling and stinging subside. Hydrogen peroxide (3% solution) is available in any drug store

A good golf swing in general is based on turning around our spine. To be able to do that we need to be in a good posture. Here is how to do it (7 Iron)
"How to be perfect every time" The easiest way to get a fundamentally sound "set up" is doing it step by step. 1. Stand up straight with hands on the golf club, arms in front of your chest, inside of

PATTAYA TRADER
4. Now let your arms and club hang down from your chest and slightly flex your knees to ensure club touches the ground just behind the golf ball. 5. Check! Shoulders, forearms, hips and feet are all parallel to your target line. 6. Find your balance by sensing that you are distributing your weight throughout your entire foot. Only your toes should be able wiggle a bit. 7. Last but not least "RELAX", let your body feel soft and light. Tension kills any chance of making a good swing and getting solid contact.
Never ever do we want to make a sloppy posture. The top players in the world all work on their set up everyday. If they do it...so should you! The worse our position at the start the more will you struggle to get club swinging on plane and consistently through the ball, down your target line. If you follow our steps it should be easier for you to get a good posture and set up. We hope that this months tip was useful and that we will meet one day at TPR Golf Academy to improve your golf.

Introducing Polo – the fine sport of Royals Polo is increasingly becoming popular in Thailand, and in Pattaya there are two polo clubs. In the 2007 Asean Games, Thailand managed to secure the bronze medal, while Malaysia became the winner followed by Singapore, that took home the silver medal. Polo never had humble beginnings. Given the fact that you actually have to own a few horses before being able to play (as you generally change horses about 4 times per match), has always meant is a game reserved for aristocrats and royalty; the British princes William and Harry, for instance, are well known Polo enthusiasts. Though the game’s invention is still a matter of discussion, as both the Chinese and Iranian cultures have provided some sort of evidence of the game being played around 600 years BC, it was the British colonialists (and
generals) who turned it into a modern world-renowned sport.
First polo club opened in India in 1862
Even though the first ‘modern’ Polo club, the Calcutta Polo Club, was opened in India in 1862 and later exported to England and the rest of the world during the late 19th century, it was in Argentina where the sport got perfected. Originally brought to the ‘estancias’ - or country houses of the aristocratic British immigrants – the game of Polo quickly gained popularity among the extremely skilled Pampas cowboys, the ‘gauchos’ as they are still known as today. Soon enough both polo players and horses from the country became the standard for the game, even to this day the argentine riders and horses are well known to be the best in the sport, which is the reason why even here in Pattaya the Polo trainers are generally from Argentina.
Teams are measured on a handicap-scale Polo is a very particular sport, it is actually the only sport in existence where handicap is a factor; this means that in the name of fairness, many of the top players of the world cannot play in the same team at the same time. This handicap scale, measured from ‘2-goal handicap’ to ‘10-goal handicap’, was created in order to avoid unfair games. As to

SPORT & LEISURE exemplify, the polo world cup, which is held every 3 years, is a 14-goal handicap tournament, meaning the added handicap of each of the 4 players in each team cannot surpass the 14-point-mark. To this day Argentina remains the only country being able to provide a perfect team made up of four 10-goal handicap players (though of course they are not allowed to participate in the world cup as this wouldn’t be fair to the other teams. Polo is a ‘gentleman’s game’.
Polo in numbers 77 countries world wide are active in Polo. In South East Asia the sport is practised by Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Malasiya and the Philipines. The World Polo Championship is held every 3 years with the participation of about 20 nations. Next tournament will be held in 2015 in Chile.
www.pattayatrader.com
The rules of polo are simple Polo is played by two teams of four players each on an impressive 275m by 146 m field (roughly the area of seven American football fields), the objective of the game is to lead a small ball in between two wooden vertical poles in order to score a goal. The riders can hit this ball using what is known as a ‘mallet’, which in all technicality consists of a long bamboo rod with a ‘head’ made of wood, much like a long wooden hammer. It goes without saying, the amount of agility and skills required to ride on horseback at full-speed while hitting a small ball with a long hammer are, well, impressive to say the least. High handicap riders (anything above 2-goal handicap is considered professional level) spend most of their lives practicing and competing before obtaining a respectable level of ability, which of course makes it all the more impressive to see a 10-goal handicap rider being able to dribble i.e bounce the tiny ball on their mallet, before hitting it as hard as possible to make it go through two wooden poles 100 meters away... while riding on a horse. In case you are interested in finding out a bit more about the requirements needed before you start practising this amazing sport, you can always contact the main club offering training in Pattaya:

Going Fishing with Roger but it gave me something to do. Then that golden moment, I noticed after I struck upwards the line stayed on the surface, I knew this meant something had taken the weight of the pirk. Quickly I reeled in line till I hit a brick wall, then the brick wall moved down and away from the boat.
H
i People, I have started to fish for squid at night with my boat. I have long known that the local professional fishermen troll around Koh Krok and other islands for squid at night and have large catches. They do this by changing the prop on their engine for a smaller one (so they go slower on idle) then they rest the shaft of their longtail engine on the back of the boat (so the boat stays on course and frees up their hands to pull in the squid while the boat moves). They use two outriggers with squid lures and one line in their hand, when the squid hits a lure on the outrigger they pull on a connecting line then pull in the squid while the boat continues to move. Som Chai's dad (my fisherman friend) told how and where to catch squid around Koh Krok. I was using a light rod with one lure and in 1 hour after the sun
has set, I can get 1 kilo of squid. One of the problems is that some of the squid are too big to use for cut bait. However I have lots of Thai friends who like fresh, free big squid! I had noticed two Thai boats drift fishing one of captain Deang's spots using pirks (a colored metal bar with a treble hook) so I went and bought some. On my next trip out on my boat I anchored 600 yds off shore at the north west end of Koh Larn. After putting out 3 ugly sticks 6-15 lb class, two with floats set at 90 feet deep in 100 feet depth and one straight down, all with live bait I put a 60gm pirk on a 2 - 6lb ugly stick with 8lb braid. As I waited for the big rods to go I started jigging and quickly got three small snappers. When the tide started to pick up I swopped the pirk for a 90 gm one. I was not hopeful
 My rod was instantly bent double (and stay that way for most of the fight) as line shot off the reel, no lightning runs, just a hard take. In the first minutes I could do nothing but try to slow down the fish, I was mindful that I only had 8 lb braid, so no horsing or winching! I used my finger gently on the spinning fixed spool reel and when the fish went harder I backed off. This was a slug fest that lasted some 30 minutes but slowly I started to retrieve more line than the fish took. Twice I moved the rod from the left side to the right side of the boat, lifting the other rods up as I brought the line under them. Luckily the tide had started running hard and the straight down rig was some distance away. Then the moment when I got to see the big silver flash as the fish gets closer to the surface. I had played the fish out, he was almost dead and I slowly brought the net from behind him. A 3.5 kg golden trevally on 8 lb line, what fun! Fish when they have put up a long fight usually die quickly due to a build up of lactose in the muscles and sheer exhaustion. I have seen this a lot when catching large horse mackerel, they often die and the smaller ones stay alive longer. I gave the fish to Som Chai's dad to say thank you for the info, he was well pleased. Scott's guys went out on Captain Deang's boat and got 15 queen fish and 1 pompano and I went out the next day with him and two fishing buddies. We got 26 queen fish, 1 spanish mackerel 1 grouper and 2 golden trevally. Amazingly twice we had three fish on at the same time, it got a bit crowded at the back of the boat! And the first time we had 3 different spieces a queen fish, a golden trevally and the spanish mackerel. Never see that before! Lastest news from Scott, 18 queen fish, 4 barracuda's and a pompano. The usual if anyone info on tackle shops, or wants to share their "catch of the day" photos and what general area they where fishing. I can be contacted on 0808356945 or email me plamafia5@aol. com. Have fun!

Car Review - The MG6
MG, long known as an established brand in the UK and Europe is delving into the mainstream market with the MG6. The now Chinese owned car maker has opened up a car plant in Thailand and will open a second one soon. It is looking for the MG6 to break into the mass car market and all signs are that production capabilities are being ramped up accordingly. By using a local production base and by using locally sourced parts, the MG can compete very well with locally made cars and especially with imported cars, even though the brand is often seen as more niche. To facilitate the rollout of the MG6 in the Thai market the company expects to have up to 30 dealers in place by the end of 2014.
Little larger than Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla Arguably the MG6's current competition includes cars such as the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. That said, the car is a little larger than many of its counterparts in the same market segment. The MG6 has a wheelbase of 2705 mm and a kerb weight of 1548 kg. The car's length is 4648 mm and its width is 1827 mm. It stands at a height of 1467 mm from the ground. The car has a slightly more spacious feel to it, though the difference is arguably as

There is a good amount of leg room for both front and rear passengers. Head room for those sitting in the back is not compromised by such a steep sloping roof as seen in some other makes and models of car, even though from the outside the body still takes on that rounded look. That said, the window line is high as compared to the rear seat level, which is arguably the secret behind the way the extra height has been provided. There are some nice touches in the interior including air conditioning vents for rear passengers that are located at the back of the center console.
Good size luggage compartment The luggage compartment is of a good size however there is a lip around where the hatch door opens that may reduce the loading window if large items need to be carried. The floor is also uneven when the rear seats are down. This wont be a problem if loading in suitcases but for an oversized fragile object the floor pan may need leveling up.
Holds a fuel for 12 km per liter The engine is a 1591cc inline 4 petrol turbo power plant that provides 161 horsepower at 5,500rpm and 215 Nm in the 2,000 to 4,500 rpm range. It is connected to a six speed dual clutch auto transmission unit. The car can move from 0 to 100 kph in 10.3 seconds and can reach a top speed of 205 kph.

The fuel tank can hold 62 liters of gasoline giving the car a range of approximately 744 kilometers based on fuel economy of 12 km per liter. For external lighting the car sports wraparound headlamps and similarly appointed rear light clusters that hug the body shell seamlessly. The front grill is a wide single slot affair that proudly displays the MG badge in the center.
Dashboard is well laid out In the front, the dashboard is well laid out with the speedometer easily visible through the steering wheel complete with a wide sun-shade covering, as well as a host of controls evident on the steering wheel itself. Although there is ample space in the front of the car, storage for personal items is a little lacking. It might be that owners will have to turn to third party accessories to store mobile phones and other items. There is no sat-nav as standard but these days many people use their smartphone for navigation and so a place to stow one would be very useful.
Stable driving and smooth turning radius As for how the car drives, it is stable at all speeds. Steering is responsive and the car has a turning radius of 5.9 meters so it is relatively nimble given its slightly larger body size. At cruising speed the car is quiet in all parts of the interior and the ride is smooth. The MG6 will come with a four year or 120,000 km warranty. Priced at 1.108 million baht the car enables buyers to get brand recognition for relatively little premium and on that basis it is likely that the MG6 will be seen on many of Thailand’s roads in the near future.

The company is selling the bike as “A superbike you can ride every day". The new bike is a good looking machine, well proportioned and has a redesigned front end. Although it is a small bike it looks very sporty and larger than life, so it will suit both newcomers and old hands alike. Quality has been steadily improved and this can be seen in the work that has gone into fittings and controls, such as where brushed aluminum has been used in various places. Even the paint job is of excellent quality and is a good indicator of the company’s comeback. The bike comes in black or blue currently

Seat height is set at 779.7 mm / 30.7 inches and the overall height of the bike is 1135mm, just shy of 45 inches. It means that the riding position is not too low and not too high, just perfect for long journeys as well as riding in traffic. The YZF R25 has a ground clearance of 160mm or just over 6 inches and its wet weight comes in at 166kg. It has been built using a slim and lightweight compact delta box chassis. For suspension, the bike has a 41 mm KYB telescopic fork on the front and a KYB single shock at the rear. It allows for front wheel travel of 5.1 inches and rear wheel travel of 4.9 inches. As standard the bike comes with a 110/70-17 M/C 54 H front tyre and a 140/70-17 M/C 66H rear tyre.
Specially designed vertical whirl combustion chamber The bike is powered by a four stroke, parallel twin cylinder, DOHC, 4 valve per cylinder engine with 249 cc capacity. The bore is 60.0 mm and the stroke is 44.1 mm. The compression ratio is 11.6:1 and the engine comes with electronic fuel injection and transistor controlled Ignition (TCI). It is a liquid cooled unit and can provide up to 36 horsepower and 22.6 Nm of torque at 10,000 rpm. Yamaha has spent a lot of time developing the engine and it uses its die cast aluminum-silicon cylinder technology to ensure the best thermal flow. With the fuel and air mixture in focus, the new engine comes with a specially designed vertical whirl combustion chamber to ensure quicker combustion and therefore an increase in power output. The transmission is a constant mesh 6-speed affair, which connects to a chain drive.
Smoothness in speed Upon opening up the throttle an easy ride awaits and you would probably need to check the speedo to verify just how fast you are going, as the smoothness of the ride may well lead you to thinking you are going slower than you actually are. Even at 10,000 or 13,000 rpm the engine feels that it has much more to give and is relatively quiet such that you may think it is revving at much lower speeds. The fuel tank's capacity is 14 liters or 3.7 gallons giving the bike a good range in any driving condition. The center point of the fuel tank reaches to a higher point in space than the handlebars but it still makes for a comfortable riding position. For breaking, the Yamaha machine uses a single 298mm disc and double piston caliper on the front wheel and a 220mm single disc on the rear. The discs have sets of 3 cooling holes in an arc alignment, which looks chic when the bike is at a standstill.
Aerodynamic wing mirrors The front end has a number of lines that come together, from the bottom of the headlamp cluster to the lines that are naturally concave from the cowling behind. The windscreen has a carefully designed gap at the bottom to ensure airflow is balanced. Wing mirrors are attached to the front cowling and work well even at higher speeds. They are ideally positioned for driving in congested areas, and have domed backs to give them aerodynamic qualities. Overall this is a very well conceived 249cc bike and one that is likely to be well received by the market. The bike will be making its debut in several markets in South East Asia over the coming months and into the new year.

Boat review - The Coastal Craft 65 Concord
The Coastal Craft 65 Concord is a high-class 65 foot motor-yacht that has some superb on-the-water stats.The 2014 model is built in British Columbia and features some of the most impressive engineering found in today’s yachts including an all-aluminum body shell. It has an overall length of 66 feet 9 inches and a total length on deck of 64 feet 6 inches. Its maximum beam is 16 feet 11 inches. The craft’s highest point sits at 24 feet above the waterline and at the waterline itself the yacht has a length of 54 feet. Half loaded displacement comes in at 78,900 pounds and light loaded craft alone displacement is rated at 59,000 pounds.
Spacious with a large saloon area The interior of the yacht is impressive. It has plenty of space and is well laid out. A large saloon area and lounge area are positioned on the main deck. The lounge area features C shaped sofas that hug the space and still provide plenty of roominess in the area they are placed. A coffee table that snugly fits the shape of the sofa is in just the perfect position. Further along is the dining area and galley. The dining area also makes use of C shaped built in booth seats and a table that fits at the right height for diners to enjoy their meals. High quality Miele appliances are all fitted as standard in the kitchen area that sports a wraparound worktop. On the bottom deck are the sleeping quarters with a large king sized bed in the master room, which has an en-suite bathroom. A queen sized room and guest room are also on the same deck,

PATTAYA TRADER
both boasting en-suite facilities. All rooms are very spacious and sumptuously furnished. A utility room is also to be found on the lower deck sporting a Miele washer-dryer combination.
Fuel tank with 1,000 gallons capacity The craft’s fuel tank has a capacity 1000 US gallons, which provides for a range of 341 nautical miles at a maximum speed of 32.6 knots and up to 500 nautical miles at a speed of 24 knots. Maximum cruising speed is 26 knots. Longer range fuel capacity capabilities can increase on the standard amount and can provide for up to 1330 US Gallons of fuel. Fresh water capacity is 220 US Gallons and a separate black/grey water capacity is also provided in the amount of 125 US Gallons. The Engine room is where elegance meets high tech. Carefully fitted aluminum plates help to insulate the sound of the engines. Aluminum panels are also placed underfoot and the ceiling height is a good six feet allowing for easy access to any areas that may require servicing. Most of the electrical system and plumbing is carefully positioned above the waterline to improve safety and also to be easily visible for spotting when maintenance will be required.
Packed with technology Elsewhere in the boat, both the most up to date technology and the highest quality components are evident. Eight 180Ah lithium
Issue 169 | NOVEMBER 2014
SPORT & LEISURE
batteries are on board to provide plenty of back up power. Four of these are located in an equipment room and another four are positioned in an under deck area. For charging and maintaining power, a Charles Industries IsoBoost transformer, two Victron Energy Skylla battery charger units and three Victron Energy Quattro inverters are in place. An E-Plex monitoring system is also in place to carefully monitor the power distribution. The power system on board will allow air conditioners and AV systems to be used overnight and will also allow for shore to ship charging.
Engine noise is insulated With a top speed of 32.6 knots, sound levels reach 76dB, approx. just over the level of normal conversation. However at lower speeds the boat runs at a much quieter level. The main control is by way of a small joystick that controls manual steering and power as well as providing access to the autopilot mode. A typical power plant set up would include two 900 hp Volvo Pent IPS1200s and an IPS 3 transmission driving Volvo Penta Q4 props. The Coastal Craft 65 Concord is priced at US$3.5 million, around 110 million baht. Although it is not the cheapest 65 foot craft on the market, it is brimming with high tech additions and has been very thoughtfully designed in every respect. Additional options include a Steelhead ES1000 deck crane at 1.1 million baht, radiant-floor heating at 1.3m baht and a Spectra Newport water maker with Z-ION system to increase fresh water capacity, at one million baht. Other possible extras include a Viking trash compactor at 900,000 baht, optional teak decks on the flying bridge at 700,000 baht and marble in the heads and showers for an extra 3 million baht.

This is why we LOVE Thailand
A
number of curious Thai practices and customs occur with frequency across the Land of Smiles. For example, anyone can completely and without consequences soak a policeman, or anyone else for that matter, with ice cold water celebrating Songkran in the month of April. At Loi Krathong celebrations in November anyone can ignite a lighter-than-air lantern and launch that flaming craft into the skies without any regard as to where that airborne firebomb might land.
Squishy bamboo worms for lunch On any given day, in any Thai city, and on any soi, a newcomer to the kingdom may be shocked by the sight of a local eating a savory fried cricket or a squishy bamboo worm, a passerby drinking soda from a plastic bag, a motorist topping up a motorbike’s gas tank with petrol poured from a discarded whiskey bottle and an individual driving a motorbike with one hand while holding an umbrella in the other during inclement weather. These are but a few of the common occurrences that do not commonly occur in the Western world. If you’ve managed to get by in Thailand for a year or two and learned to count up to ten; ask “how much”; and order your favorite Thai delicacy in what hopefully passes for fluent Thai … or if you’ve become immune to the swarms of motorbikes … or the measuring smiles, both welcoming and wary … or the collective aromas of mouthwatering charcoal cooking fires, lingering blue clouds of exhaust fumes, and the aromatic curls of wafting joss stick smoke … or if the sight of the hanging laundry flapping like circus pennants, the clutches of stray soi dogs, and the insistent raw natural beauty of the nation’s landscapes and the people that inhabit it no longer warrant a second glance.... then you probably qualify as an ‘old hand’ in all things related to the Kingdom of Thailand. But how much do you really know about this sometimes exotic, altogether curious, and completely unpredictable Asian nation that you now call home?
The name Thailand translates in to the “Land of the free” 114 114
PATTAYA TRADER
Over the centuries, Thailand has had more than its fair share of labels. Other than Thailand, and maybe Siam, how many of them can you name? Probably about as many as I could before I wrote this. In the early days, the country was known by the names of the dominant ruling cities, such as Sukhothai, Ayutthaya, and Thonburi. With the stroke of a pen wielded by King Mongkut, who reigned from 1851 to 1868, the name of Siam, which some linguists claim is the Sanskrit word for “brown” or “dark brown”, was made the official new name. In 1939, on the eve of the Second World War, the name of Siam was formally changed to Prathet Thai, a name which the rest of the world knows as Thailand. In the Thai language, Prathet Thai loosely translates into “land of the free”. This name was chosen to express pride in the fact that Siam/ Thailand was the only nation in Southeast Asian that had never been formally colonized by a European power. In 1945, following the defeat of Imperial Japan, Thailand reverted back to its former name of Siam. That name lasted until 1949 when the government of Siam once again, opted for the name of Thailand, or to be precise … Ratcha Anachak Thai – the Kingdom of Thailand, which to this day remains the nation’s officially sanctioned title. Thai people, though, often refer to their nation by the colloquial title of Meuang Thai, which literally means the “nation of Thai people”. Then again, they sometimes simply use the name Thai, which means “independence” in their native tongue. Thailand also has it's nicknames, the not so known: ‘Land of the White Elephant’ and the widely know: ‘Land of Smiles’.
Bangkok is in Guinness Book of Records for longest place name Bangkok is the given name to Thailand’s capitol city. In Thai language it's ceremonial name is actually the world’s longest place name and it's registered in the Guinness Book of World Records. The name is: Krung Thep Mahanakhonn Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Yuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit. In case you’re wondering, that name consists of precisely 21 words and exactly 167 characters, not including the spaces between the words. When translated into English, the longer version of the city’s
Issue 169 | NOVEMBER 2014
name is actually a bit shorter character wise, but longer word wise, and it reads as follows: City of Angles, Great City of Immortals, Magnificent City of the Nine Gems, Seat of the Kings, City of Royal Palaces, Home of Gods Incarnate, Erected by Visvakarman at Indra’s Behest. Because pretty much everybody concurred that the traditional name was a bit of a mouthful, most agree that the Thai cartographers and government officials got it right by opting to call the place Bangkok, the diminutive version of capitol city’s name. Bangkok was also once known as the ‘Venice of the East’, because of its numerous canals, and the fact that most of the buildings situated on or near the canals were raised up on stilts to protect them against the monsoon flooding. As the city grew, one by one, the canals were filled in to make way for the wonderful modern highways and byways.
Bangkok Sky Train stops when royals pass by underneath it In Thailand, the head is considered the most important part of the human body. As such, you must never touch a Thai person, not even a child, on the head. In fact, the Thais always try to keep their heads lower than the head of any person who is older or more important than them as a sign of respect. That’s the reason why the Bangkok Sky Train will stop for a moment or two every now and then at seemingly random locations. You see, no Thai or farang can possibly outrank the King or his family. Therefore, your head, or mine, must never be directly above the head of any member of the Royal family. Because of
this, the Sky Train is always stopped in a position so that no one will never unwittingly show disrespect to the Royals by being directly above them whenever they are moving through the streets of Bangkok beneath the Sky Train. This rule also applies to the many overhead walkways that cross over the capitol’s major thoroughfares. Any one which happens to be situated above the Royal family’s proposed route of travel will also be temporarily blocked until the royal motorcade has passed underneath.
Allways wear your underwear Thailand operates under lèse majest, which is a French term that means “injured Majesty.” In other words, in Thailand it’s a criminal offense for anyone, expatriate or otherwise, to commit a disrespectful act or cause an offense of any type against the dignity of the reigning sovereign. Lèse majest is considered to be a form of treason, and if convicted, you stand a very good chance of being incarcerated in one of his majesty’s houses of penal servitude. Just to make sure that you don’t run afoul of Thai law for any other reason, the next time you venture outdoors, be advised that it’s illegal in the Kingdom of Thailand to leave your home if you are not wearing underwear, that’s right, underwear. Technically, going about without wearing a shirt is also illegal. So be sure to dress appropriately.

Drawing The Line at the Go Go Bars
W
ithout naming names, there is one Go Go Bar in Pattaya with which I have had a chequered relationship over the years. Shortly after it first opened I paid a visit and ordered a drink before taking a good look at the ladies on stage. Without exception, the dancing ladies present were in the wrong profession. I was further annoyed at how many of them approached me holding or rubbing their throats as if they had just wandered out of the Sahara. Whenever that happens, I just plead stupid and luckily it is a believable performance. Centuries later I paid another visit, willing to give any place or anybody a second chance. The ladies were all new and a vast improvement over the first lot who I hoped were all back in Isaan working the fields. Nevertheless, the noise playing was loud cRAP and the layout of the bar left a lot to be desired. I went back last month hoping for third time lucky. Happily, the bar had been refurbished, the music had improved and most of the ladies on parade were well above average in the looks department. But, spending some time there on this occasion, I got the impression the dancing damsels were, to put it politely, unmoved by the fact that I am an incredibly sexy man.
A customer must feel welcome
In spite of innumerable negative aspects of my appearance, personality and balance sheet, I have made a great temporary companion for many a lucky lady. One even told me that making love with me was the best five minutes of her life. When I returned to see her a few days later, the mamasan, whose English was as bad as my Thai, told me the lady had either run off to become a nun or turned lesbian; I’m not sure which. A once shining star had been extinguished by this farang exocet missile of love. The point is, where to draw the line between making a customer feel welcome and annoying the hell out of him. I take umbrage at being harassed but, by the same token, I don’t like being ignored either. I recall being in another Go Go Bar and being caught by one exceptional looking dancer as I admired the tattoo below her navel. She scowled and immediately turned her back to me. Well darling, I hate to point out the bleeding obvious but, if you’re wearing five square centimeters of clothing and shuffling on a lit stage, people are going to look at you. If you don’t like it, get dressed and start serving drinks! At another place I was harangued by no less than four ladies, each demanding a drink, even before I had taken my seat. It would be rare for any Go Go Bar in town not to impose a ‘Lady Drink’ quota system on their employees. This requires them to secure a minimum of say 30 lady drinks per month or their salary is cut to make up the deficit. Whatever the figure is, I hope it is reduced during low season. As a Pattaya novice I used to think this was grossly unfair but experience has taught me the practice is not only justified, but necessary.
Bar employees are like car sales persons
116 116
PATTAYA TRADER
The bar business is like any sales business and the hostess/ dancers are the front line sales people. Business profits are a reflection of how well they ‘sell’ but in spite of financial incentives to do well, some will be content to do the bare minimum. Liken it to a car or real estate salesman working for a monthly retainer plus commission. If, after several months, the boss notices one salesman has not sold anything but simply accepts his retainer cheque each month, he knows that guy is not pulling his weight. He becomes an expense to the business with nothing to show for it. Bar employees are no different and, if given a minimum to do, most will do the minimum. Imagine being in a bar with ten dancers on stage and another ten sitting in the far corner eating and gossiping while a dozen lonely customers are left to fend for themselves. The quota system of ‘lady drinks’ with financial penalties for failure to achieve the target is one way of getting them off their cute bottoms to interact with and attend to customers. A target of 30 lady drinks a month – one per day – is readily achievable by even the most homely Bar Hostess or dancer. Some of the better ones can manage around 200 without any difficulty. This is good for business and good for the lady. At the opposite end of the scale is the hostess intent upon multiplying her income by getting as many commissions as possible. Like the ‘hard sell’ used car salesman, she is not only a pest but, from a business point of view, she becomes counter productive once she starts scaring punters away. The success of a bar cannot be gauged simply by the number of drinks sold within a given period. If they sell 1,000 drinks but only had 1,000 customers, it means no customer stayed for more than one drink and a good manager should want to know why. Income like that cannot be sustained, as the bar will eventually run out of customers.
I offer the lady a personal tip instead of a drink
If a lady is pleasant enough, I enjoy her company and she sits with me long enough without complaint, I will buy her a drink. I certainly will not buy her a drink on the demands of some hovering serving wench who thinks she is doing her bar sister a favour by acting as her agent or tout. Whenever that happens, I offer the lady a personal tip, equivalent to about half the price of a lady drink, by placing the cash directly into her hand. The bar gets zip and the lady ends up with more money than the commission on one drink. To date, this tactic has worked well. For bar owners the problem is more complex and I haven’t a clue how to solve it in practical terms. They want their ladies pleasing and interactive enough to keep customers drinking in the bar but not so pushy as to frighten them away. The answer may come from educating the staff about the likes and dislikes of foreign patrons, but this should be a two-pronged attack. The mamasan needs to reinforce the message at regular staff meetings but customers too should let their feelings be known. Customers are paying to be entertained, not annoyed, so by consistently rejecting unwanted demands instead of caving in, the sales people and their employers may learn what it takes to keep customers happy and where to draw the line.

Household debt likely to increase card issuers will expand access to credit for their credit card holders, further increasing household debt. Still, even at current levels the household debt to GDP ratio in Thailand is lower than that seen in South Korea that already has a 90 per cent ratio and less than Malaysia’s 87 per cent level. KResearch expects interest rate rises to reduce household debt increases in the medium term of 2015. - Pressure on households' debt burden will occur when interest rates reach their peak, but that's two or two-and-a-half years from now, so the short-term effect should not be substantial, Mr. Chari says. Informal lending remains an issue of great concern, and for this to be reduced only an increase in earnings and better financial planning would make a difference. Prasarn Trairatvorakul, the Bank of Thailand governor says: - Turning to low-interest loans can be compared with taking a painkiller medicine, which is only a short-term solution, but if we focus on generating earnings, then this would ease excessive lending and improve savings. Due to an improving economic recovery that will undoubtedly spur spending, Thailand's household debt is expected to rise next year and possibly for the next few years. Credit card use will be one of the factors behind the expected increase according Kasikorn Research Center (KResearch). Mr. Chari Kengchon, Managing Director of KResearch says: - We expect a ratio of 85 per cent of GDP at the end of this year, and it could reach 86-87 per cent next year. In the second quarter of 2014, household debt rose to 10 trillion baht representing 83.5 per cent of GDP in Thailand. This is compared to 9.87 trillion baht or 82.7 per cent of GDP in the first quarter. As the economic recovery takes hold it is expected that credit
BTS Group and Sansiri to develop joint property projects Bangkok's sky train operator, BTS Group Holdings Plc and SETlisted developer Sansiri Plc (SIRI) has agreed to a joint venture to develop residential projects close to BTS train lines. The plan is for the developments to be large scale, valued at more than three billion baht each and for them to be located within 500 meters of a mass transit route. The joint venture is the fist foray into the real estate business for BTS Group Holdings Plc in over twenty years, since it has been focusing on the mass transit system during that time. Keeree Kanjanapas, BTS chairman, says: - We have many plots of land along mass-transit lines that are aviable for property development, but we're not ready to do it alone. Sansiri can help us. In total, the alliance is expected to build projects worth up to 30 billion baht in the next few years. The joint venture company will be held equally by both companies and will have an initial capital of 100 million baht. Initial investment for the first project, which will be located at Mor Chit BTS station will be in the order of 600 million baht for each of the holding companies. The plot of land at Mor Chit station is five rai in size and it's located close to Chatuchak Park. The project, once complete, is expected to consist of 900 units worth 5.5 billion baht in total. Approval for the development in respect of an environmental impact study has already been secured.
South Korea steel maker Posco to build new factory in Rayong The Thai division of South Korea's Posco, Posco Coated Steel (Thailand), is to build a new factory in Rayong. The factory will produce sheet galvanized steel and galvaannealed steel products for the growing automotive industry in Thailand. The new plant will have a capacity of 450,000 tonnes and will cost US$300 million to build. Completion is expected to be in the middle of 2016. The plant is to be a continuous galvanizing line plant and will be built in the Amata City Industrial Estate, close to manufacturing plants of many carmakers in the region. Most of the carmakers that Posco will serve from the new factory are already customers of the company. Thailand's automotive industry is growing steadily with 2.5 million cars produced last year. The additional output of Posco's new Thai plant will push the company’s global production up to 2.2 million tonnes. The company has existing factories in China, Mexico and India.
