I Can't wait 30 years from now

I Can't wait 30 years from now

I don't know what's going to happen this year or next few years, but 30 years from now,
I can see Thailand being a nice country to live in. Hopefully I'm still around and retiring in the coast of Thailand.

The train system is well organized and you can hop on it to anywhere in the country. The currency will be strong and equaled to the US dollar. Maid service is an organized business not a servant job or caste employment.
No stray dogs on the street. People move out and populate other cities in Thailand.
There are good schools all over the country. Westerners are flocking to Thai universities for the top rated education in the world. The city sewage system is cleaned up and maintained. There's well organized professional sports teams.
Thai teams would make the World Cup and Olympics. Average Thais are financially able to travel abroad and without much hassle like visa permits.
The economy is bustling. People enjoy going out and seeing Thai arts. Flat nose becomes something to inspire to by Westerners and not just a trend.
Thais have something to sell and make money globally.
Thais no longer laugh constantly in conversations with Westerners and say things like "Thailand is the only country that's never been occupied" or "we are the best at counterfeiting...(then nose laugh)"
Kids that are 10 years and younger now will be reaching their 40's.

I'm looking forward to a Thailand 30 years from now, as well.
Perhaps I'll be around...
A Thailand of yesteryear - hoping we revert to a Thailand of 100 years ago.
My utopia.

The "back to Siam" movement is growing steadily. ;)
