Maurice,

after flying 800 hours to get home yesterday, my brains are not ready for the normal Maurice. How about giving me a break and shorten your political stuff to a sentence or two.

Thailand is in sad shape. Since I have not been there before, I cannot say whether the mood is getting better or worse. Empty buildings and abandoned projects clearly outnumber projects in progress. Not much positive in the newspapers there (English and Chinese).

Germans dominate the tourist scene. I can't say I have ever seen anything uglier than German tourists on Patong Beach with bathing suits 4 sizes too small.

If tourism is any indication of a country's economy, Japan has a long way to go basd on the almost total absence of Japanese tourists. So much is dependent upon the US and Europe. If our consumption rate slows down, they will head straight down.
