Hi and greetings I wish to share after being on one site some half hour ago and decided to hop into this from a member's banner link.

I'm from Holland, our Queen & palace is just 4kms down the back garden and I am very happy to have been to Thailand since last May. I have since returned from Bangkok in mid July, after the 6th trip to Thailand.

I'm a Retiree since 1986 and for now, have just added a new Investment to my June/July trip with a modest plot of land housing my Aussie-built pooled resort Cottage soon to be constructed on a fabulous Golf course in Hua Hin.

I have briefly read the AOFT and their goals and would delve more on it to increase my awareness and hopefully, see the changes many are devoting serious support efforts to have them materialized.

I am also representing my Bangkok Partners from a distance outside Thailand with Investment opportunities both in Rentals and Ownerships as well as for those much more keen with "flipping" investments in another nearby Asian country.

Please feel welcome to let me know if you have any questions surrounding our services involving Real Estate Investments in Thailand.

Sincerely,


Desmond F. Lechner - O.M.E.

Thank you Deejay for the welcome.

If I may, I would like to bring up the following thought and common understanding as well, as an exception perhaps, for this Forum site pertaining to new opportunities or when dealing with bona fide businesses.

A 1st time Introduction to any linked business, (not HYip types or virtual make belief fancy website designs etc..) when introduced on a newly created thread or reply-post and starting as a very first post, should allow the banner to be included as a credible existence that represents who or what the business is all about.

Take away or deprive that "presentation portfolio", means you deprive a genuine invitation for Investment with impractical restrictions...let me help you here in perspective (I'm not trying to wise you up on business culture and ethics here, just trying to help bring some sense with pragmatism).

In a global easy way to understand for any layman, a country invites foreign companies or encourage local business to be set up. It then continues to claim and says, "all is possible, low taxes imposed, great opportunity and setup support given etc..." before a Corporate or Small business takes up the offer.

Once all submissions are filled and license approved, and work is prepared to set up to make it appear ready for business, an employee of the Govt local Dept for business drives up the compound and issued a notice informing the Proprietor or Entrepreneur of the new business, "You cannot put up a sign saying or disclosing your Business Name or address and so forth and you are only allowed to have a front door with a keyhole and thats it!!! No fancy colors or shape and size to highlight your front entrance etc..."

Ask yourself Deejay, will you then set up business this way in such an environment if that was the case???

The morale of the banner is self evident and has nothing to do with advertising motives here... in fact, the real advertising, which is much more powerful and effective lies within the explanations and details all typed out to let the reader understand what the business is all about.

The picture or banner if you will, is simply a broad and polite smile as a professional way to show as proof, we are not a company of just a few hours ago... that may fly off and disappear the next day like we see many scamming and fancy banners related to websites with little marketing or trade value when investigated...

So you see, it is only correct as with protocol too, to present a company's portfolio in an easy and unobtrusive way by adding in the very 1st introduction, such a company banner, design just for this purpose.

Do you actually own a company yourself with a minimum of USD$5 million or more as yearly turnover on the trading business market?

As for the signature, I have amended its size as well, and thank you on that, it is only in normal font.

I hope I did not step on any body's ego with my explanation but just wanting to help so this site will not thwart others away by the wrong or lack of understanding with allowing/inviting potential businesses in participating, which will only bring more good to this site and its business aptitude to new opportunities to share and shower members with diversity... i.e. good and worthy business options for all to seriously consider and to appreciate the quality this Forum has within and from its various participants of this site.

Hello Desmond, welcome to Talk Thailand and thanks for your comments. I agree with your points, however we have a specific folder where you are very welcome to present genuine businesses

Affiliates http://talk-thailand.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?fid=4

Basically this folder is for new members to introduce themselves personally not for specific business opportunities, that way it keeps the forum nicely organised

Also, if you want to discuss specific business issues your very welcome to post in the Business in Thailand Folder to create active and interesting discussions
