  1. i drink now singha light (my beer). It is only 97 Kcal a bottle versus 103 Kcal for San Miguel light. Before I Drink Leo which is 160 Kcal a bottle. I lost 10 Kg in 1 year with only eating a little less every day, and still drinking about 10 small bottles a day
  2. I have the same problem. I just download the clips via J downloader. But at the moment i am not blocked, I was a few days ago. Maybe it will happen again
  3. Myth Night (made in Thailand 2) will have 66 bars, 2 toilet blok and an office. With 7 girls per bar that will be a grand total of 462 lady(boy)s. I hope they have enough parking space for all the motorbikes.

  5. The rent before was (information from a lady who rented in the old MIT for more than 10 year) 14000 a month. She had a bigger bar with 2 billiard. But there was a yearly key money of 60000 AND a 5 yearly key money of 300000 Baht. This comes down to an average of 24000 Baht a month. So if some body tell you the monthly rent, you must also ask all the involved key money to get to the actual rent. Maybe some smaller bars at the back had only a rent of 10000, but you have to add the key money.
  6. For the new MIT rents you have to see the big picture. I made a rough calculation, and than some conclusions. Cost of running a bar in new MIT per month. rent 50000 Initial cost (bar stools, refrigerator, ventilators, billiard, music ect) 5000 music license (50000 a year) 4000 police money 3000 personel (1 cashier and at least 7 ladies or LB) 50000 electricity and water 5000 and ice 3000 8000 That is 120000 a month. Sure i forgot some items, and you can discuss the money involved in each item, but it comes down to at least 4000 Bath profit you must make a day before the owner can make money. For simplicity I take they they only sell beer(I know they also make money from bar fines and more profit on lady drinks). A bottle per box cost around 35 to more than 40 Baht (san Miguel). So if you sell at 80 Baht, you must sell at least 100 bottles a day before making money. The rent in the old MIT was around 25000 Baht. If they sold the beer than at 70 Baht they also had to sell around 100 bottles a day (the beer 3 years ago was slightly cheaper). So a mark up of 10 Baht covers the higher rent. Rent is a major cost, but the other items add to more than that. The point is that you have to have enough customers. Many new owners have already bars. So if the have regular customers base they will come visit the new bar. When you start a bar for the first time, you will have a very difficult first half year, so you must have deep pockets to start and hope for the best.
  7. All bars were sold in one day, but some people bought more than one bar. I think they are trying to sell them now with profit.
  8. Key money is yearly. With these rents the cheap beers are no option in the new MIT.
  9. Some extra information on the new MIT. It is expected to open in November this year. The plots are 5 by 7 Meter. The lady I have this information from had a bar in the old MIT. It was a bigger bar with 2 pool tables. She paid an average of 24000 Baht a month. She has bought the same location, but can only put 1 pool table, and she will pay an average of 48000 Baht a month (monthly pay of 26000 Baht and 260000 Baht a year) which is double for a smaller area. There a many bar owners who had to look for a new bar when MIT suddenly closed and bought a bar that was available at that time. Some of them bought a lot in the new MIT. So you will see that at the end of this year bars scattered over Pattaya will have a sign to be sold.
  10. The rent in the new MIT is 26000 to 30000 Baht a month depending on location with an extra yearly fee of 260000 to 300000 Baht. All 50 locations were sold in a day. They had to pay 50000 Baht first an another 100000 Baht when construction start.
  11. Tree town has at least 4 toilet blocks, yes they are not beautiful but functional
