How I long that we can be together for an outing - swimming just for a day ( Sunday is our free time ). But this is far from my imagination because for so many reasons. We have different interests from each other. Here comes Sunday, my hubby wants to go cockfighting, my daughter is complexion anxious, my eldest son will visit his girlfriend,while the two other sons is busy among other things. They suggested that they will come along if we'll go to Phuket, Thailand resort. And that would be a big headache because -- NO MONEY !

You have to talk to your family members about the importance of being together for one day. You can consider everybody's interst and try to think of something which all of you can do in common. If things won't work that way, think about a lot. Make all the plans in a paper and ask the youngest one to take the lot. You can also invite your son's gf if you want.

Try to think of something wherein everyone will enjoy. You mentioned that resort and if you really wanted to get a chance to enjoy your family then try to set aside some money so that you can eventually make a trip there.
If this is still an impossibility, try to ask if there are any alternatives where every member of your family is willing to go and hope that it is cheaper than what they currently want. If it's not necessarily a place then you can probably prepare a dinner or activity that everyone will be interested in.
