drogon Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Greetings I would like to know if anyone has an idea of the cost of studies at the university of thai chamber of commerce in BKK? A MBA. The info I received from mailing them was confusing as I am not familiar with the american system. It seems there are courses - terms etc... to pay. If my calculation (and if I understood well) the cost of one year should be around 60-70k bht. Thanks for your answers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 OK I have bit my tongue long enough, but I can't hold back anymore. Khun Drogon Son, you are making the classic mistake of running before you can walk. Previously I have been offhand in my responses to your threads before the trip, and I have even taken the time out to communicate to you via PM. Unfortunately since you landed here, all sensible reasoning seems to have flown out of the window. First of all you are telling us you are now considering sponsoring 2 girls not one. In the bat of an eyelid without consideration for the consequences you have decided to relocate to Thailand, set up business in F&B and sponsor your thirak's "Friend" through uni. After making this rather rash decision you start to ask questions such as ... Contacts in F&B Business, I happen to know quite a few bar owners with over 20 years experience in Thailand. How to Transfer Funds, Jeez can you add up 2+2 Reputable business agents, if Sunbelt Asia is all you know (no offence to Sunbelt asia or any of their affiliates) you sure dont know much. Cost of Uni fees, after agreeing to sponsor DOH! I am sorry Drogon, I for one probably knows the answers to most of your questions but I am not going to waste my breath passing out advice now since it is obvious that you dont take onboard advise offered previously by many not just me. If you are free on Wednesday night, may I suggest you go to Impact Arena and catch the Keane gig, and memorise the lyrics to "Is It Any Wonder?" it may all make sense in 6 months time when the Champagne wont be flowing. [color:blue]I, I always thought that I knew I'd always have the right to Be living in the kingdom of the good and true And so on, but now I think I was wrong And you were laughing along And now I look a fool for thinking you were on my side Is it any wonder I'm tired? Is it any wonder that I feel uptight? Is it any wonder I don't know what's right? Sometimes, it's hard to know where I stand It's hard to know what I am Well maybe it's a puzzle I don't understand Sometimes I get the feeling that I'm Stranded in the wrong time Where love is just a lyric in a childrenâ??s rhyme Is it any wonder I'm tired? Is it any wonder that I feel uptight? Is it any wonder I don't know what's right? Oh these days After all the misery made Is it any wonder that I feel afraid? Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed? Nothing left inside this old cathedral Just the sad lonely spires How do you make it right? Oh, but you try Is it any wonder I'm tired? Is it any wonder that I feel uptight? Is it any wonder I don't know what's right? Oh these days After all the misery made Is it any wonder that I feel afraid? Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?[/color] The again what do I know?

drogon Posted August 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 thx for your opinion. The consequences? I have the financial capacity to do it without loosing much. I have the ability and the experience to do it. About uni costs: it is for my lady not for her friend. About sponsoring: I only send 15k/month that is all -> I will not support my gf as she is about to get a job. Yes she will live with me etc... but I will not"sponsor" her. The explanation I gave on the board were vague as I did not want to tell all.... About fund transfer: I am looking for the best way to do that and less costly, as i dont know in details how the banking system in thailand works i prefer to ask. About moving there: Yes it is a risk but what is not? About my private life, you have the right to think what u want. What I am actually looking for is good advices about things i would not have thought about. thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 What I am actually looking for is good advices about things i would not have thought about. thx Here is the Crux of the matter. 1) You have been offered more than enough good advice, you just refuse to see it. 2) You have not thought about it.

Old Hippie Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Does your GF know you are sponsoring the other girl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shygye Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Their website is tough to navigate. There seems to be 4 MBA programs (CEO-MBA, MBA-Communication, International-MBA, MBA-Global). The International-MBA is 120K per year. But that is the farang price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous_Dog Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Drogon, I work with UTCC on some projects, course fees are on memory 2200 baht per unit, 11 units in a year, 20 something I think to graduate. It always seemed odd, but these numbers stik in my head from a year ago when I last asked. Course cost is about less than 50 a year, but you would have other fees on top. A great Uni as it has 24 000 students, 23 500 are pretty girls, 500 are katoeys. They are just starting to do e-learning (This was only LEGAL in thailand for Unis to offffer since December last ear - go figure) now, Accounting department is the first to offfer there. It is very easy to get too, worth going in person and asking and eyeing the eye candy at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
