Thai Airlines Urged to Conduct Inspection of Boeing 737-800
chiman replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
737 (minus the Max, which Boeing should never have launched like they did) is one of the safest planes every built. -
There is so much garbage everywhere I have gone in this country over the last 15 years. Side of the road, in a field, on the beach.. the way it gets dumped into the environment here is heart breaking. There is an island of trash floating in the Gulf of Thailand thats many KM long. Happy to see the reduction of plastic bags at 7 and such, but it would take education and decades of clean up to really turn things around here...

It's news already that cloth coverings don't slow the spread of Omicron as with previous variants (agree or not) .. and before you jump on my back, we wear masks everywhere and are very careful. The news is Omicron is that contagious .. luckily its "mild" compared to Delta and the original strain, still waiting to hear how mild, triple vaccinated friend was just hospitalized with Omicron, he and 49 of his colleagues all caught it on a business trip to NYC. They tested negative PCR before their flight home, and negative on return, then a few days later they were all sick... he was given Monoclonal Antibody treatment. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2021/12/23/1066871176/mask-n95-omicron-contagious

DPM Anutin: Thailand is able to handle Omicron variant
chiman replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Every country can handle Omicron, its mild and nothing to get excited about. Open the doors, let it come in and replace Delta - -
Been driving here in Sukhumvit for well over a decade now Me first mentality on the roads Ill do whatever is convenient for me, no matter how it effects everyone around me Cannot allow merging of cars, see rule 1 Drivers in their black vans, laws do not apply, also see rule 1 Bus drivers and taxi drivers, not sure what they are on still.. but its not good Lastly, sense of entitlement stylized driving Stats for Thai Road Deaths are nearly on par with homicide rates in the US. Wasting your time and energy thinking it will improve... it is what it is, be defensive and drive a safe car. We do not do Tuk Tuks, Motorbikes, and avoid walking on the streets...

Thailand detects fourth potential Omicron case, first three confirmed

Please stop counting -
We are at the Airport Novotel now, arrived last night at midnight, 1 person in line in front of us at check in, PCR test took a few minutes, no line. Arrival about an hour earlier with paper work (QR code, PCR test results) was very smooth, lots of staff to process us. They ask for boarding pass, QR code, and test results. Do not fold your QR code, they cannot scan it… you can also show them a copy of your code on a phone. They would need to scale once numbers of travelers increase.. but for now, I would say come… waiting for our results now, was told 6 to 10 hours, we are at 9 hours now and no results yet… they said as soon as results come, we can go if negative. Its basically test and go… just waiting in a hotel room. I would not want to be waiting at the airport with the kids, etc.
