Bangkok's malls consume more electricity than some provinces. Siam Paragon, a popular high end mall in central Bangkok, consumes nearly twice as much electricity at the northern province of Mae Hong Son. Thais and foreigners alike flock to the malls in Bangkok, which are air conditioned. Most of the electricity consumed in Bangkok is generated in Laos and Myanmar. In 2013, the Bangkok Metropolitan Region consumed about 40 per cent of the Thailand's electricity, even though the BMR is only 1.5 per cent of the country’s land area and about 22 per cent of its population.

According to Credit Suisse Global Wealth Databook 2018, which surveyed 40 countries, Thailand has the highest rate of income inequality in the world. In 2016, Thailand was third, behind Russia and India. In 2016, the 1% richest Thais (about 500,000 people) owned 58.0% of the Thailand's wealth. In 2018, they controlled 66.9%. In Russia, those numbers went from 78% in 2016, down to 57.1% in 2018. The Thai government disagreed with the report and said the report didn't take government anti-poverty programs into account and that Thailand was held to an unfair standard because most of the other countries in the report are developed countries in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

  • 24 MAY 2017 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: Volunteers at the Emporium, an upscale shopping mall in Bangkok, make wooden roses to be used during the cremation of Bhumibol Adulyadej, the Late King of Thailand. In Thai culture it is customary to place wooden flowers in front of a deceased person's coffin or urn as a last tribute before cremation. The Royal Cremation Organisation Committee, which is overseeing plans for the cremation of Bhumibol Adulyadej, the Late King of Thailand, asked the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) to provide three million wooden flowers for the late King's cremation. The BMA, in turn, has asked malls and civic organizations to provide flowers. The Mall Group, which owns Emporium, has pledged to provide up to one million wooden "Wiangping" roses, which in Thai culture symbolize unconditional love. The late King will be cremated October 26, 2017.     PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
