I am glad I live in Perth Australia. All we get is a bout of flu every winter. Well, you cant really call it a winter compared to most countries.

These Rabbis would do well to remember that and be grateful that Christians are tolerant and understanding enough to worship and show remorse on their brethren's behalf.
A bunch of rich American Rabbis who love the publicity ! They have forgot that it was Christians who fought to end the war and rescued thousand of Jews from the camps and then nursed them back to health, where possible and re settled them in various countries. I knew a few people who were in the camps and thought they never talk about it, they did say they were grateful for what the Allied Forces did to rescue them and help them afterwards for many years.

However, on a more serious point, I have noticed that on almost every thread connected to this virus & Thailand, the main theme is the money, or more accurately the money they aren't going to make. Previous to this thread I was reading that the Pattaya authorities are pondering what to do ?? They have considered making Nong Nooch free, but only to Thais and are concerned mainly at the loss of revenue & not peoples safety, nearly every thread/article has the same theme. Disgusting really.
Starting from the 1st February all Tourists will be questioned and searched to see if they are carrying any money. If so they will be escorted to the Duty Free rip off shops where they must spend all their money except $50 (Taxi fare home from airport !) Furthermore, they will not get their 7% VAT refund.

More nails in the Thai tourism coffin ! Not much room for any more nails. I have finished with Thailand now. From Australia there are plenty of better options e.g. Japan, China, Malaysia, Vietnam and more. Even going to Europe is only about $500 more than Thailand and much better places to visit in many countries.

Unstable is it ???
You are showing your ignorance ! When a plane does its maiden test flight the pilot want good conditions so he can make initial assessments on performance and handling and many other things where strong wind and bumpy conditions would upset the data. This all has to be analysed by the ground experts to set up the plane properly. Bad weather conditions come later in the test proramme

Why not give N95 masks and a free pass to ALL National Parks ?

Every breath you take in Bangkok and most of Thailand is dangerous to your health. The Govt doesn't care about the people except at voting time !

I ride around Bangkok a lot, drivers using phones is epidemic, I would say at least 1 in 4 are doing it while driving.
And on motorbikes too. Pedestrians are glued to their phones. I like to stop walking when I see them blindly walking towards me !

And its nearly all plastic ! Not a care in the world about the future. What do Thais care about ? Me, now. Thats their attitude. Nothing else matters to them.

Why bother ? There is nothing there except sand and sea, nothing to look at, just a very expensive place to stay and sit in the hotel or on the beach. Can do that anywhere. Its all about rich people and egos.

And there we have it. I "arrived" in Thailand 6 times last year. I would imagine there are many more that do the same. The "tourist" numbers that they constantly spout are nonsense. Why don't they just count those entering on tourist visas as tourists? Surely that would give them a more accurate number?
No it won't. Many countries have a 30 day visa exempt agreement. I live in Australia and have been to Thailand nearly 40 times, never with a visa as we only stay for 3 or 4 weeks.

So they will bury the cables underground ! In Bangkok that means about a foot under the pavement and then never repair the pavement. Would be the same in Pattaya as they also work to Thai Standards !!

RIP those lost. How many were wearing Seatbelts ?
And what difference would seat belts make ? None whatsoever. In a head on belts create massive internal injuries that would be fatal plus massive whiplash. No chance for the occupants,

Western Australia is not affected by fires. It is a lovely place. I live in Perth. Only a 6 hour flight from Thailand.

Russian soldiers are tough bu##ers ! They are highly trained in Systema which is a brutal combat system. I can't see the Thai guys winning any fights over there. but they might learn to run faster ! Another useless political exercise

As I have posted before, Thailand does not have any submariners or anyone who has served on a submarine. Now they are saying they will send guys on a 2 year course !! The sub design is already over 10 years old, so they will have a novice crew in an old Chinese submarine. I dread the results of what probably will happen ! That's if they ever gets used. Could stick them next to the aircraft carrier !

Police efficiency at its best ! Only 8 years. The Red Bull policeman killer should be OK for a long while yet !

Same old BS from the PM. He is concerned about the pollution and says he is doing something about it but as you have read all he has done is to tell other people and agencies to sort out the problem ! His best solution is to tell people to stay indoors ! Doesn't polluted air go indoors too ?? What a useless leader.

Scott Morrison is thinking like a Thai ! " Dont let the dangerous bushfires deter you from coming to Australia for your holiday" Yeah, right. Who would want to go to Sydney or Gold Coast right now ?

She is typical Yank, wants everything her way. He should never have been allowed to marry her. She has dragged down the Royal family and is now taking away a decent bloke to be her lap dog. Let them go and never come back. I would love to know what Prince Phillip thinks of her !

Time to buy some de-salination plants. Here in Perth a lot of our water comes from the de-salination plants. Got too many people here now. Presume rice growing and Songkhran will carry on as usual and maybe spraying water in the air when the smoke comes.

Just goes to prove that the police are heavily involved in all kinds of trafficking except the kind on the roads !!
