  1. These buffoons can say what they please, but the fact is that the only body authorized to declare a pandemic "endemic" is the WHO, not a bunch of corrupt, inept soldiers.
  2. This proposal worries me. How soon before it becomes a requirement for the Thailand Pass?
  3. Does anyone know where to apply for a job with the Police? Their salary package must be very good!
  4. I have used Lazada over the last few months to buy digital watches and computer components from China. They are delivered by local courier and I have not been charged with any duties or taxes - even for orders over 20,000 baht.
  5. When these notes were introduced in the UK we were told that they would last longer. This is just not true as I am still broke well before the end of the month.
  6. I applied for and received Thailand Passes for myself and wife in less than 24 hours. Yes, you need to make sure that you follow the rules which are clearly set out in the current iteration of the application - especially regarding file formats and sizes. I'm not MENSA material and am in my 70's, so come on you young guys - didn't you pay too much attention at school? Now, where are my Werthers?
  7. Further advice to the really rich investors these guys are trying to "lure", don't bite! (for anglers only!)
  8. The British government's decision to maintain Thailand's red list ranking reflects two things. Firstly Thailand''s inaccurate and selective statistics reporting, and also a bit of revenge for the Thai treatment of both Brit and other nationalities in the kingdom. Most western governments recognize that Thailand is still ruled by military junta comprising corrupt officials. Their lack of education is also a problem. The pain suffered by UK expats trying to get home is now extended by at least another month. Word to the wise - stay away from Thailand until democracy is restored.
  9. As expected, Thailand now on the UK red list, making it VERY expensive for brits to get back home, even those who took up the Phuket sandbox scam who will be stranded unless they pay the 2,200 GBP per person plus testing fees to get home. The UK decision reflects their distrust of Thailands reporting of daily infection figures and their general dislike of the military junta here.
  10. I fear that discussions regarding vaccine acceptability in the UK will be rendered moot in the forthcoming week. Currently Thailand ranks number 35 in the list of Covid worst infected countries, but the UK Red List has 60 countries and territories on it. Mexico for example was demoted to the Red List with virtually no warning a few days ago. Ten days of quarantine in the UK will cost an individual 2,285 GBP (106,000 THB) or a family of four sharing 6,575 GBP (306,000 THB).
