Hotel Quickly
A new hotel booking site has been launched for Asia. It is only available as app for smart phones. Hotel Quickly will only offers rooms for the same day at very attractive prices (according to themselves at least) will come available at noon. Will there be a market for this service in this very stiff market? Possibly tough for families with small kids to use this service, but for the single mobile traveler it could be interesting if the prices will be attractive.
Bangkok farmers market
A new farmers market will appear in Bangkok now and then. First out will be at Four Point Hotel by Sheraton at Sukhumvit soi 15 coming Saturday from 8 am – 2 pm. Since I’m very busy in the morning I will most likely not make it, but I will try.

Most Thais thinks bribes are ok?
According to a new poll Thais thinks bribes are ok. Really?
Car Service
A new service in Bangkok will drive you and your car home when you have been drinking. Sounds very smart, but will it stick with Thais that like to show of their cars? I think it could make great impact and saves lives short and long term. Really hope it works out for them.
Just think about it. 100.000 people dead on the roads in Thailand over the last 10 years. AT LEAST!
