The Airport Link train connecting Bangkok and Suvarnabhumi airport.The Airport Link will check for service from Aug 23. The data was settled after a convention with the state Railway of Thailand.The Airport Link will has two types of service.First, The City Line which stops at every station to transport passengers from Phaya Thai to Suvarnabhumi to the airport. Second, The non-stop Airport Express which runs from MakkasanThe fare for the City Line starts from 15 baht and the Airport Express 100 baht. airport.

I think the Airport Link is very good, it support for many people to go to
airport easier. The Airport Link is comfortable,fast,and inexpensive for trip. The Airport Link want to change a problem about traffic jam. So, people unnecessary drive their car for come to. The Airport Link is the best way for people to go to airport. It is a nice example for another institute transport in Thai. The traffic jam is the top problem in Thailand, so we should imporve this problem in a few time.

Army try to motivation end of decree in far North

The 3rd Army commander has recommended the lifting of the state of emergency in the northern in Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai to give trade and tourism a boost.

Thanongsak Apirakyothin said he gave the recommendation to the Centra for fix the problem of emergency situation for make a decision.

Gen Thaningsak said,Overall security situation in two provinces is under control. He not sure 100% that nothing will happen after emergency rule is lifted. But he thinks it should be lifted to restore the image in terms of tourism and trade.

The Internal Security Act still can invoke to deal with any possible problem. On Thursday someone found a home-made bomb near a school in San pa Tong area, officer can defused a bomb. Officer believe the bomb was probably the work of unruly teenagers and that bomb can make a lot of damage to building and kill many people.

Puea Thai party spokesman Prompong Nopparit said tourists have a negative feeling about emergency situation in Chiang Mai and Chaing Rai.

In my opinion I think it is very bad news of Thailand. The situation makes the tourism of Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai worse than they seem. Normally, Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai is the place that very popular around the world. After we got the problem, people around the world afraid and don’t come Thailand. Thailand will make a big lose about the economy and tourism.

This news is a politic news in Thailand. It is about Thailand and our friend countries, they are Cambodia. We have argument about their area which is between our and their countries. It is the Preah Vihear temple. Thailand and Combodia try to be an owner. We can't agree who should be an owner. Cambodia started this argument first. They sent this story dispute at an Asian meeting, but the Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said that all parties should understand that the issue could be solved at the bilateral level. Cambodia wants Thailand to have the conflict, but the Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said that each country had its own processes and other nations should respect this.

I my opinion I think the Preah Vihear temple is very important at now and future. I think the owner is can be Thailand and Cambodia. We should not fight for own the Preah Vihear temple. We should cooperate to promote the Preah Vihear temple, and put it to be a wonderful tourism. People from another will come to the Preah Vihear temple, and the economy of Thailand and Cambodia are better. Many students should have chance for study about history of the Preah Vihear temple. I hope Thailand and Cambodia will cooperate together for get it to be the tourism.

The Water Service




This news is about business in Bangkok from http://www.bangkokbiznews.com/, the news tell that Mrs. Vatchalee Vimuktayon who is Director General of Internal Trade Department. She said that from August 28 many restaurants in Thailand might change. The restaurant specialist like Fast Food, a self-service restaurant, including Mac McDonald’s, KFC, Chester’s Grill and A&W are too. She would like to control every restaurant give a service for customers. The water service will be free to customers who come in the store, because many restaurants can’t sell the water in size 500-600 cc with a price per bottle is 7 Bath. Normally, many restaurants sell water in size 500-600 cc with a price per bottle is 15 Bath. So, she must change and control every restaurant after 28 August 2010.


In my opinion I think it is good to change about this service, because I think it too expensive than the old price 2x. Nowadays, some restaurant already has the water service for customers. I see at some McDonald’s and KFC. It has a small water zone in their shop. There are jugs of water and some ice to support their customers. Finally, I think 15 Bath is too expensive. They chart percent of water price too much. So, this news is great for customers. They are necessary to buy a higher price of water in the shop.


Sushi Platter




This news is about business in Bangkok from http://superadrianme.com/2010/05/21/do-not-disturb-slow-melting-in-progress/, the news is on 20 August, 4 D Communications and HD Distributor Company (Thailand). They are manufactures and distributes ice cream, Haagen Dazs. Wuthichai Rattanasumaworg who is president of this company. He creates a menu is “Sushi Platter”. It is ice cream that design look like sushi, Japanese food. This is the first time in Thailand that ice cream has the design like this.



In my opinion I think design is very important for business. If ice cream has a same design like a ball on the cup or cone. Everybody think every brand is the same, they may choose the brand that near their home. So, Haagen Dazs use a design to promote their brand. I think this news is a good example for improve a business in Thailand.

Free Songs




This news is about Technology in Thailand. HTC (Thailand) join with GMM Grammy to offer free song downloads. Customers can through the MyHTC service for three months. Android-based HTC members can download songs by GMM Grammy. They have more than 10,000 songs for download. First, the member has to installing GMemberMe Application with the MyHTC service. Users can download at http://cellphones.about.com/od/softwarereviews/a/free-htc-software.htm

In my opinion I think this news is very nice for everybody who loves music. I am a teenager who loves music too. So, I think two companies can put music in their technology together. After that, I think HTC know an important thing about music. The music is very popular in Thailand at this time, so they use the music to present their product and promotion with free song downloads. They both are very smart, I like their thinking.
