In southern Thailand, the rubber price back in 2000 hovered around 20 baht a kilo.  It is now up over 70 baht.  Recent high prices have seen rubber sometimes leap over the mystical 100 baht barrier.  This makes for lots of happy plantation owners, and well-remunerated armies of tappers, throughout the rubber producing provinces.

Each sheet of rubber in this picture is worth at least 70 baht.  The plantation in question is making a profit of almost 80,000 baht per month.  Good money - in an area that only 30 years ago was riven by insurgency and strife.  Times change, and now the money flows.
