I suggest everyone read the statutes of the TDA to know what is required of us all. It's available off their home page.

Got hold of Hans yesterday.
He told me he knows about this, and is trying to get it confirmed. At the moment the only information is coming fro0m the TDA, which is not the most independent source.
Regarding TDA membership-compulsory CMAS promotion: there are quite a few PADI shops member of TDA already, and that is not an issue.
Me, I am not enthousiastic to join TDA. I like the idea of an organisation for DC's in Thailand, maybe with subbranches for different areas, but don't like the fact that while TDA claims to represent all DC's in Thailand they are at the same time promoting CMAS.
Yes, well, I personally am not a member, but Sunrise Divers is a "Gold Supporting Member" or something like that.BTW, Chantal and Jamie: you are also members.
