i don't know if any of you have seen the video posted by mike and kim regarding jw.org advertising on a thailand computer game review television show.

its interesting - check it out.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57nigmnim18.

the show is called game show social - i looked at a few of the videos and jw.org is on a lot of them.. at first i thought that it was a review of a jw.org app but when you look at other videos jw.org is on a lot of them as a sponsor as well as dell lg and others.. wgo..

You are right my apologies - I told you my math was crap,lol.

I still find it interesting though and i will keep digging around.

If the videos suddenly go missing then we will know something has been addressed.

Yeah i just looked over at JW talk and this is one comment from one member of below.

comment:

"That was one of the points I was trying to make, but I didn't do a good job at it. Anyone with computer skills can lift the logo and place it in that spot.

An apostate could have faked the entire thing just to rile people up online.
The people who made the video could have just grabbed logos and put them in at the beginning giving no thought to sponsorship or selling ad space.
Someone could have purchased that spot and put the logo in without permission from the Branch.

We know the Society would never have done this. That's all we really need concern ourselves with "

WHAT CAN I SAY....

SPARX Thanks for that.

Okay so I have done a bit of research and found out more info.

These are links to business/investment websites.

http://www.bday.net/thairath-tv-takes-the-leading-position-in-variety-hd-channels/

http://www.nationmultimedia.com/business/Thairath-TV-banks-on-boost-in-contents-30246631.html

Some quotes of interest from the articles:

Triple V Broadcast is the operator of Thairath TV which broadcasts variety programmes in high definition.

One of the TV shows it produces and broadcasts is Game Show Social.

With five key founding sponsors - Bangkok Bank, Advance Info Service, Isuzu, Unilever and Tesco Lotus - and other main sponsors, the company expects that it will hit its revenue target of Bt500 million for this year.

Moreover, in the year 2015, Thairath TV also plan to launch the project Connected TV in the first quarter to follow the first year that we make Game Show Social, the tv program which allows viewers to join the game through the 2ndScreen including mobile phones, tablets, or computer screens with the total of 60,000 downloads with the number of participants growing at 60% per day comparing to the first day. There will also be the launch of the channel’s Application to serve viewers’ second screen behavior in the first quarter of next year.

Thairath TV is planning to invest Bt1.6 billion mainly on contents next year in a bid to achieve its revenue target of Bt1.5 billion, which was recently revised from the original goal of Bt1.2 billion. About Bt1.2 billion will go for contents and related production costs including broadcasting rights for foreign TV shows.

Okay I checked the currency exchange rate and it is roughly 3.5 Thai Bt to 1 U.S Dollar so if you divide 1.2 Billion Thai Bt - by 3.5 you can do the math and work out the dollar value of their next year investment is massive (my math is crap) but its roughly over $400,000,000 so they are not a small company and I believe that JW.org are investing in this - the company is so big that they would not allow some stupid idiot to just put JW.ORG on their tv show.

Somethings smells here and its not me,lol.

No way.

WGO.

Im going to continue to research this.

Patterson vs Walkill vs Warwick

by Magnum in

i understand that warwick is to be the new world headquarters of jws, patterson is an educational complex, and walkill is a literature production center.

will patterson continue to be used as it is now after the completion of warwick?

if not, what will happen to it?

WHATSGOINGON

insidetheKH yes you are correct - however a recent c.o visit informed us that some (probably a small amount) of the european printing is done in canada - but he didn't say for which countries though. very strange.

Hoser is right all of the literature for Canada U.S and I believe some parts of Europe are printed in Canada.

Its a bit of a mystery why they need to build more literature facilities if the Canadian bethel prints all that and the European bethels are being downsized and amalgamated etc.

Also the amount of printing is going down and is cheaper.

Less magazines - with less pages, softcover books.

Encouraging people to print their own or to read from their iPads and tablets etc.

I can see in the near future the printing going rapidly down to the basics - the very bare minimum until it stops.

So why build more facilities and educational centres. If all of the buildings have been doing the job okay until now whats the point ?

Why build new halls and keep on asking for money why not sell the existing hall and use that money to build a new one or modify the existing hall ?

Why empty out all of the congregation funds and then still ask for more ?

Lets face it - if the end is so close why can't they just use the halls and buildings they have already and put all the extra money into the preaching work. They obviously do not think it will end soon.

I know about the re selling and flipping of properties and the court cases but come on where does all the money go ?

Why can't they be honest and just show the rank and file all of their bank info - after all the rank and file give their contributions and have no idea where it goes ?

If it is for court cases then change the stupid 2 witness rule and put an end to all of this.

Otherwise there are some rich people behind the scenes making a pretty penny from the gullible in the congregations - its disgusting.
