  1. Here's a recent topic with some Lazada deals that may interest you.
  2. Try a Bennie Burger located on the river. ????
  3. I believe you can apply for the sandbox or 7 day hotel quarantine. No test and go currently.
  4. Yes, you would need to change SIM cards unless you had a dual sim phone. I always hang onto my previous phone so I can work with 4 sims which is handy. I'd say do whatever you are comfortable with that works for you. Never easy with technology changing so quickly. Good luck.
  5. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=vpn.australia_tap2free&hl=en_AU&gl=US https://www.amaysim.com.au/
  6. I use a free version of VPN Australia, but not for MyGov. I have an Amaysim SIM which has free roaming SMS's and only requires a $10 top up every year to stay valid for OTP's.
  7. Yes, x 26 so 23,579.40 per annum. We were using $2000 per month roughly.
  8. I was referring to the 2000 figure. Please don't muddy the waters. You will be paid the full pension less the 2 small supplements. In fact I have a friend who received the full pension plus rent assistance as long as he returned every 6 months. You lose the 2 supplements after 6 weeks. Lost the rent assistance now as he couldn't return with covid restrictions.
  9. Yes, you can. There are some hoops to jump through, but if you have lived in Australia for 35 years when you reach pension age, you can claim it and go and live anywhere forever. No need to return. You will continue to be paid and get annual increments.
  10. I will give you rough figures but, I have a friend who gets just shy of $1100 a fortnight with rent assistance etc. If you live outside OZ, you lose a smallish amount. Also there are residency requirements. But because you are getting 26 payments a year, you probably would end up with close to AUD$2000 a month. If you are single you can still own a home and have around $275,000 in assets and still get the full pension.
  11. I had mine brought forward to 10 weeks. I got an SMS that I could come 2 weeks earlier than the original appointment. AZ at Phayathai2.
  12. There is a list https://www.seadmcthailand.com/phuket-sandbox-guide/list-of-67-countries-for-phuket-sandbox-model/ I don't see any African countries on it.
  13. - Must wear a face mask before and after exercising. Only time mask can be removed is while exercising. Above is from a Phuket newspaper. I know in Chonburi you do not need to wear a mask if doing strenuous exercise. https://www.nationthailand.com/life/30387328 An article about wearing face masks while running being harmful.
  14. This from the article says it all: “Vaccines are just designed to deliver a payload and then are quickly eliminated by the body,” Goepfert said. “This is particularly true of the mRNA vaccines. mRNA degrades incredibly rapidly. You wouldn’t expect any of these vaccines to have any long-term side effects. And in fact, this has never occurred with any vaccine.”
  15. Nelson Mandela. South Africa and maybe Southern Africa would have had a chance.
