This lot are so stupid it beggars belief.
Couldn't agree more. In fact they wouldn't need to shake things up
that much to make things radically more attractive to foreign teachers.
Thailand has to move to a knowledge economy - it just isn't going to be able to cut it as a low-cost manufacturing centre for much longer.
They aren't going to be able to generate enough skilled people without foreign help.
Seems they just don't want to give too much to foreigners. Cutting their nose off to spite their face comes to mind.
