Is the end of the world a good time to invest?

After a turbulent 2011, here's a look at what could be in store for Thailand this year and beyond

Hopefully the film 2012 won't prove prophetic. In 2012 we saw the end of the majority of human life. A perfect prequel might be called 2011 with floods, earthquakes and near global financial collapse. Anyway, it might be a good idea to keep Dec 21, 2012 free on your calendar, as this is the date some say the Maya predict the world will end.

Well, the world will come to end but more likely in a few billion years than by the end of this year. Although the year 2012 will be significant in providing some indication of whether we are headed for a global financial meltdown or an improvement, the key for Thailand is in the longer term.
