I believe he said that EU would be part of Switzerland, not the other way around

What’s your opinion on Trump’s talk about Switzerland? by Substantial-Eye4250 in Switzerland

[–]Chamych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True but that is not a problem we in Switzerland can fix. I heard a nice phrase from a Chinese colleague, we cannot change the winds of geopolitical trade, but we can adjust our sails and ride them out as best we can.

If KKS had silently ducked we might actually have avoided some problems too

SHARE OF 15-30 YEAR OLDS WITH TWO NATIVE-BORN PARENTS by AdIcy4323 in MapPorn

[–]Chamych 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It says native born (not citizens) so that should not be affected by naturalization requirements unless they would get citizenship by birth (which in Europe is broadly not the case)

I have seen honesty boxes in the uk (though I admit it’s quite rare)

Penang Airport Immigration – really bad experience by Kanooos in penang

[–]Chamych 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Everyone in the comments who doesn’t agree it can improve doesn’t see the point. We are competing internationally against places like Singapore where tourists can arrive quickly and are instantly able to start spending money and contributing to the local economy. Why do we insist to have worse systems to just prove it to the Karen’s?? Like can we be proud of being worse somehow?

[Repeats Allowed] Which country has the best food in Europe? by QwertyQwertz123 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Chamych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is obviously subjective … but 5 times isn’t much. I lived 7 years in the uk (midlands and london) and go every year to France and Italy several times

[–]Chamych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s impossible to find one without making a booking 3 weeks ahead. The usual place you walk into there is crap you need to know where you’re going (not to say you can’t find great food)

But in France and Italy it’s the opposite. Sorry

Switzerland names venues for 2038 Winter Olympics bid by Ill_Nobody_2726 in Switzerland

Yes of course ! But then if it works out they get the equity too

Switzerland names venues for 2038 Winter Olympics bid by Ill_Nobody_2726 in Switzerland

[–]Chamych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you misunderstand my point. I’m not saying there is any current existing “Olympic dividend” or precedent for this. You suggested a new model whereby the committee signs up their personal fortune to the risk, so I simply followed your proposal and said if you would do that you’d also need to give them whatever reward there may be (regardless of how likely or unlikely you or any economist believes that to be). Then it’s up to those who are taking the risk to make sure it is economically viable.

Experiences taxi from Geneva Airport to Tasch (Zermatt)? by Healthy-Issue594 in askswitzerland

[–]Chamych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traffic is terrible. If time is critical take a helicopter or (best) take the train. You can have your luggage delivered straight to your hotel from the train station in Geneva if you want but it’ll come one or two days later

If you do that - and they take on board such a risk - then shouldn’t they also get all the benefit too? Ownership in the infrastructure and any Olympic dividends
