Build the Wall...Yeeha!! Many critics said Trump wouldn't win the elections, and they said if they did, he wouldn't be able to implement what he wanted to...but it's not for lack of trying. Recently, the most controversial ones included talks about actually building that Great Wall of Mexico, which has been their election war cry since the start. Trump mentioned that a 20% import tax on Mexican goods might pay for that, but now to fend off terrorists, he's talking about banning entry from…

Snippets#5: Trump Vs Techdom, Clash of the Titans

Reality vs Perception. So Mahidol University did this random survey on campus girls over 18. They didn't quite say how old the upper limit is, but MCorp Review is guessing 21, 22...I dunno. Apparently, there are only 1.2m of them, so they are nothing compare to the old geezers in the forked review who will eventually dominate our economy, but these chics (as a group) are growing 12.9%, so I guess it's worth a look if it doesn't take up too  much time.<table class="table table-striped"><tbody>

After one quarter has lapsed, we meet with Bangkok Airways again and well as another land transport company called KIAT. KIAT may have a tiny market cap, but they are the largest listed logistics company in Thailand for hazardous materials. Now, this is pretty high margin stuff compared to regular land transport, because "high risk, high returns" is the name of the game yo. In Thailand, you can't transport stuff like these (industrial gases or NGV) on trains. In addition to this, KIAT also does…

New entry. Little is known of Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, but this year, he fulfilled our criteria of owning listed equities when he bought a large stake of Asia Aviation (the Thai arm of low-cost carrier Air Asia) for bit more than Bt4/sh when it was trading 30% higher than that...in a private placement from the Thai CEO Tassapol Bijleveld. It's pretty amazing, because even if Tassapol needed the money badly, he shouldn't have discounted the stock so much. The operations are doing really well…
