THL - Tourism Holdings

[kizame]

THL has invested in the wrong country,clearly there is a much greater likelyhood of a mass campervan shootout in the states than here or Aussie,I think this is why the shareprice is now heading south.
Shareholders will be worried about impending lawsuits when this occurs.

I already hold THL but wouldn't mind some more. The more down-ramping the better as far as I'm concerned - that is until I hit the BUY button

Ok, so we all agree that in order to grow the business in the U.S. is to attach gun turrets to the camper vans. We'll get together an petition at the next SH meeting.

Thanks for the link arc. Good to see THL considering this early but I'm afraid it is a bit over optimistic to suggest we will have many electric vehicles in our fleet in 18-24 months time. The infrastructure (charging stations) is not there for travelers and is unlikely to be there within that short time frame, unfortunately.

Great stuff. Maybe they could extend the use of their proposed charging stations to the public as well.

Getting NZ well covered with charging stations should be a high priority infrastructure project lead by the Government. NZ is too vast and many tourists travel to places far away from dense population areas so this will require some serious investment from Government and private businesses.
A comprehensive plan and project would speed up the inevitable change to both business and private electric vehicles use

Agree 100%. N.Z. government does very little to subsidize / encourage electric vehicles, (exception from road user charges only until they make up 2% of the national vehicle fleet) is really quite a miserable and minimal incentive so the least they could do is take a lead with charging infrastructure.

Fuelling stations for private individuals and company cars is not the role of government.

If THL want electric vehicles then they need to ensure there is an infrastructure in place to ensure their customers arent disappointed half way between Geraldine and Twizel. Actually there ought to be more petrol / diesel pumps than teri currently are - but more importantly there needs to be more toilet stops.

(we are still paying off the government's useless Fibre Broadband role out which now enables kids to play games with a better ping rate and to down load pirated stuff and stream media - why should we pay for some eco-warriors Quioxite type electric vehicle battle against climate change!)

Im guessing that Hybrid Petrol/Electric will be the initial fleet options. Perhaps the vans will also be covered in solar cells on top and the sides. Would make sense to have a set of fold out solar panels, Press button motor driven large surface area panels that fold out from up on top... collect those precious ergs.
