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.

This proposal worries me. How soon before it becomes a requirement for the Thailand Pass?

Does anyone know where to apply for a job with the Police? Their salary package must be very good!

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.

Great job British Embassy in Thailand!

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.

One Baht is too much for a bribe (AKA tea money).

One Baht is too much to pay an agent who bribes the IO on your behalf and takes a nice cut for himself.

Always take a thai speaking friend with you as a witness, and if a bribe is requested ask to see the officer in charge.

Window dressing for a failing regime. Educated rich people would not be interested in Thailand for one second. They usually do not invest in corrupt third world countries, let alone want to live in one.

The Embassy staff clearly have too much time on their hands. It would be better spent trying to secure vaccinations for its subjects.

How long will it take bofore the foreign embassies in Thailand realise that the Thai government has failed, and will continue to fail, in vaccinating not only their own subjects, but those of foreign countries residing in Thailand?

I am sure that the Australian embassy has taken the same stance as the British and other embassies that the Thai government will provide vaccinations to their subjects.

The British ambassador has assured British subjects that the Thai government will take care vaccinations for British subjects. Is he unaware of the farce taking place with registrations, or the use of an inneffective Chinese vaccine? Did this not make it to coctail hour at the British Club? Grow a pair and take this up with your Whitehall masters.

I hope this expenditure does not compramise funds for the Space program.

We understand that the news that we've offered Embassy staff vaccines is difficult for some people to accept, but we must fulfil our duty of care to our staff.

With respect, would you accept that you also have a duty of care for British citizens living in Thailand?

Many people continue to ask if we can arrange vaccines for British people in Thailand. There is no change to the UK government's position on this. The NHS does not provide healthcare outside the UK so it can't offer vaccines to British people who live overseas, including here. This is not an excuse – it’s the UK government’s policy.

With respect, NHS policy has nothing to do with this. The current position is that British lives are at risk due to the failure of the Thai regime to organise an effective vaccination programme. Your position should be to approach your masters in Whitehall and call for emmergency help to provide vaccines to their subjects in Thailand. The logistics of distribution and administration of doses are relatively simple if the French example is anything to go by. Will you commit to help us?
