I'm delighted to say that the first print run of the Guide has sold out. I have prepared a revised/updated 2011 version and it will arrive in bookstores in the near future. Cheers. Bruce Hi folks.

I disagree with much of what was spewed forth by Paul Renaud in his review, some of which is just downright wrong. Take for example his precious bleating that I didn't mention his font of wisdom in my book - while in fact his website was listed twice. It kind of makes you wonder how much care he took with the rest of his review doesn't it? I stand firmly behind the value of “Your Investment Guide to Thailand." I believe it to be a particularly useful and unique resource for all those interested in obtaining an introductory – yet still quite comprehensive - overview of the Thai investment landscape.

I would have ignored a book on investment from someone "who has more than twenty years experience in professional and management roles in both the Australian government and private sectors." But with glowing reviews by Mark Mobius and Dr. Supavud, as well as the intro by the finance minister, the guy must be serious. I'll pick up a copy. Thanks for this review.
