Phuket is ready to accept....

 

Is tourists ready to accept Thalands requirements for stv ?

I made an inquiry for insurance off an add on this site as I can return with the Thai wife. 

I said for one year premium please advise health and C19 coverage prices. 

I have been pestered by a broker for 2 days, calling from the UK, sounds Asian did not ask him. He is very keen to sell me insurance which I will not need until early next year. 

The prices range from 2K USA up to 25K USA and for World wide cover, which I told him I didn't want. 

I thought that I would be getting quotes from Thailand companies, and these people are keen to sell. 

What a load of rap, Thailand is going to have to re think letting expats and tourists back. 

Hotel quarantine is a rip off, resorts think that they can quadruple prices, no one will buy this. 

This insurance business is nothing but a cash grabbing rip off and the cut off age varies from 70 to 75.

All expats or tourists will be in deep strife, the golf courses will take a hit. Mr Leo and Dr Singa must be down on profit, the Hi So that control the punch and Judy show have big insurance interests. 

They are so greedy that they are wrecking Thailand. 

Somethings got to give. 

The big Pharma companies are holding the world to ransom, If the USA used Ivermectin to treat C19 there would be no need for a vaccine. 

Watch it yourself on YouTube 

I no longer have to fear Covid 19

Just gets me thinking there is a lot more Covid cases in Thailand than the official figures...

The only cases that are in NZ at the moment are in quarantine having returned from overseas on repatriation flights. 

Interestingly one tested positive from Hong Kong yesterday and there have been some Thai that returned and tested positive. NZ has a huge Asian population and the majority of the people who come back on these flights and test positive are Asian and Indian. If you search You Tube for.... I NO LONGER FEAR COVID 19...

A documentary about Ivermectin and Remedisiver it will open all who watch its eyes. 

I think Thailand used this drug and it seems to be the best treatment ever used 

However it only costs 20 cents a dose and Remedisiver costs 3K and Fauci is linked... Watch the Doco

I was thinking of the gratitude the french give aussies stemming from WW2. Then i thought about the thais and the Japanese rule the Thai burma railway and the total disrespect the thais give falangs.. unless your chinese..

They have this view they've done it all themselves. They have ministers in Paraliment who have done 4 years prison time for the attempted importation of heroin into Australia.

And yet still think we are the problem.

If you are a falung with Thai family and visit Kanchanaburi, the Thais don't know what WW2 was, they don't know what the cemetery is, they don't know what we Anzacs and British did, if you try to explain what happened your wasting your time, history of this not taught. 

If you try to explain today's situation most don't care and a huge amount of people are zipped at the mouth in fear of speaking.. 

To me the people just want sell their goods at the market they are angry someone is missing, never have I seen this in land of no smile no longer.

As far as I'm aware there is no mating season for dogs - where did you get that idea from?

 

you have a point about temples - Monks feel obliged to feed dogs - in a misplaced concept about life being sacred......and suffering is part of it.

...and people tend to place sick or unwanted animals in temples. However this overlooks the fact that an abundance of food leads to an abundance of animals and subsequently an abundance of puppies.

 

The root cause of the dog problem in Thailand is feeding - it needs to be discouraged and shown to be an anti-social act. In the long run it helps no-one, not even the dogs.

 

Buddhism does play a large part in this. 

However the state of these dogs is appalling, I have never seen dogs in such a state, around food markets dragging themselves along the ground to try to scratch the horrible body bits hanging out of their bodies. 

Yet we see billions spent on the high speed rail to benefit Chinese investors, and a Suicide road system that has never been addressed. 

That speaks volumes, human lives on the roads don't matter and rabies infested mangy dogs biting children don't matter. 

The only thing that matters is certain people lining their pockets.

Here we go again, soi dogs need to be exterminated like the dangerous vermin they are, not fed bags of old rice by idiots and left for the numbers to explode into the millions. Just wait until the 'pittie' genes get into the stray population, kids will be ripped apart not just bitten.

Which victims were taken to Sang Vadahna Hospital? The dogs? 

I have personally seen a policeman shoot a Soi Dog dead for biting children, keep that quiet he may be arrested.

If he is traveling on a Thai passport the Thai government and police know where he is.

 

If traveling on a foreign passport his whereabouts could still be determined from airline and immigration information.

 

If he is using a false identity and fake foreign passport that would make it more difficult, however face recognition could find him if countries are obeying the Interpol red notice.

He wears a face mask and Sun glasses and stays in a sleepout behind Thaksins house.

1,216 people don't sound like a super pole to me.

My friend, stuck here same as me, phones his wife everyday, a school teacher, and she is afraid to say rumplestiltskin on the phone.

She is convinced the phones are all tapped in LOS.

She also told my friend not to come back to soon and bring that falang disease back.

So if people are told a lie often enough, they soon start believing it, most Thais think falangs brought covid 19 in.

the hi so in bangkok think because it comes from thailand it will sell but it all comes down to price

I have noticed that Thai Jasmine Rice here in NZ does not taste anywhere near what is was like a few years ago.

Also I wonder about all those pigeons sitting on the storage buildings, pooping everywhere, they must get inside as well.

Maybe the rice is getting a bit stale.

Then there is the good old Thai BAHT which has been held high to long----anddd Somkid walked way from the government, he was a smart cookie he was Thaksin's finance minister this mob asked him to work for them, hes walked away now probably in disgust.

Once again a man child has a hissy fit and throws a tantrum when told that he can not do what he wants, and to wear a mask.  Sometimes, one has to believe that if parents would be held responsible as to the wrongs there offspring commit, even at a later age, because the parents did not kick there rear ends and teach them the difference between right and wrong and respect, but instead believed in this FACE issue to much, if that would change anything.  OK, with that being written now I will put the inside voice away and go slap myself because after reading what I wrote I know it would never occur and is laughable.

 

Yes it is sarcasm

But it is true, Thai woman ruin kids or should I say Boys, they spoil them, spoon feed them when babies and let them do what they like.

I have been fighting this with my son, the girls spoil him rotten and he conducts the orchestra when they are around him, frightens me what could happen to him as he is a real good looker and one jealous BF could be his downfall when he gets older.

In my experience, 5 years in a Government College, most Teachers are incompetent, not interested in teaching, give them books or tasks to do, then leave them, come back a few minutes before finishing, or arranging some sort of "Activity" they will be having. just a joke.

Sorry to agree with you, Teachers in most public schools in NZ are ,I would say useless.

Children can not be punished physically, there is a anti smacking law and parents and teachers are not allowed to cane or strap anymore. Consequently, some Kids have beaten up teachers .

The other problem is the curriculum taught in public schools is stupid,they teach kids like kindergarten when they are 6/7/8 yrs old really stupid.

It makes me think, if you can not afford private school you would have to teach your kids yourself or put up with the brain dead system.

The drug traffickers will be ecstatic! The police chief has iced it!

Exactly, they call meth, Ice in NZ. 

This must mean the drug running is loosing money due to covid tourism losses. So now they can speed up the delivery and sales to local people, meanwhile drunken drivers can guzzle at will, kill and mame and police can supplement their income losses by taking cash for DUI. 

The STV has done only this,

The first flight is for 120/30 CP Group executives, CP has big interest in China and is Thailand's wealthiest  Chinese Family with Seven 11 under the belt plus insurance, Property development interests, automotive ,food and Telecommunications .

You can google them and see the PM and deputy PM posing selfies with  the family.

I doubt this plane load will be wearing bracelets, they are on a mission, the overseas press does not regard them as normal tourists.

There is supposed to be a plane load of Scandinavians coming in to play volley ball on Jomtien beach and clean there condos up.

So that's what the STV has achieved so far, all organised by approved Thai Govt agency.

The Chinese Paid 173k BHT for Thai Airways fares, hotel quarantine, 3 meals a day insurance and visas.

I do not know what the Scandinavians have paid or if they will come.

So this looks like a shopping trip for wealthy Chinese investors? property developers.

The irony is that it is almost racist, if they can allow Scandinavians in to play on the beach and service their condos under this Cloaking Device called STV, then why not let people that own property and have stayed in Thailand for years back in, whats the problem here ?, it would be far better than a STV which is just a big shopping trip for CP Group.

I think that Thailand is now doomed for expats, I have three friends in the same boat as me and they are over seventy and own property and stayed in LOS for the last 15 years, they are at the point of giving up as it is just to hard for them to get back, I can go but they are not married so they are more stuck, even If I wanted to go b4 Xmas I can not get insurance here, and they are freaking because they are 75 year olds, one has investment he can,t access, he has written to the embassy for special dispensation, and so far no luck.

Check out SafetyWings < https://safetywing.com/nomad-insurance/

Anybody (no matter your nationality or where you are currently staying) can subscribe to it, and It provides 250.000 US$ health-insurance coverage (INCLUDING Covid-19) as part of their overall travel-insurance policy (which will also cover repatriation, dental, baggage lost, etc).

And it comes at a monthly premium between 40 and 120 US$ (depending on your age).

Yes, you read that correctly if you are say 55 years of age, the full travel-insurance package they offer (and which covers Covid-19 not for 100K but for 250K US$) is STILL cheaper than the ridiculous Thai covid-19 only insurance policies.

Those Thai insurers must make a fortune, when they charge MORE for their policies than what you get as a Free BONUS when subscribing to a FULL travel-insurance policy with SafetyWings.

 

I went on the web and went over their conditions, one is you must not be over 69 years old, they won't insure over that age. Also you can not get a policy issued from some countries so you have to give an alternative address,  Australia and Canada cant get insurance issued from their countries, no mention of NZ.

The premium was around $137 US for 30 days for my age group, I'm 68. you can cancel any time and pay by installment.

That equals 4200 BHT for 30 days, so for a year it would be 50,400 roughly that was for cover for both health and virus. A poster has mentioned he paid 32000 BHT for a year to a Thai company and he was 76 Yrs old .

I also get emails from the Thai embassy at present the next repat flight is leaving October 20 .

Fare is $1800 economy and around 4K business. Thais need only a fit to fly, My wife is Thai and son holds Thai passport , I need a covid test, a fit to fly, a quarantine booking pre paid and all documents with a Insurance cover for covid, which I can not get from NZ.

The flight will be cancelled if they do not get 160 passengers, anyone who has credit with Thai airways can not use it for this flight. All fares are non refundable, quarantine is non refundable.

My wife and son get free quarantine, but dad the breadwinner can go to h----l

So it would cost me $5400 for a one way trip plus quarantine 2k ? plus insurance and if I do this I can not return to NZ without paying for quarantine and god knows how much to fly.

I hope that a vaccine will be approved soon, the Chinese have vaccinated company staff and children of.

The people that made the vaccine have vaccinated themselves and their children, the Chinese were hell bent on beating Donald trump who was hoping for a release in the USA b4 the election.

The Chinese have the stuff packaged up and ready to roll, they are just waiting for the approval to go through and they hope to be injecting next month.

Euro's will have to wait for FDA approval , NZ and Aussie work on the FDA model so looks like Chinese will be rolling in shortly and Euro's late next year, then who knows what the Thai insurers will do.

One thing is certain, he who pays the piper calls the tune and that will likely be CP Group, Thailand's wealthiest Chinese family.

We have to initially look after the Chinese.

What people seem to miss is who is pulling the strings. Thailands wealthiest family CP group control the enlightened one. 

Coincidentally the first STV flight full of CP group executives. 

Coincidentally CP group have large insurance interests. 

What a great way to boost profits. 

Charge every person entering the Kingdom a premium. 

No insurance companies in Australasia will cover covid. 

However Thailand companies will. 

A simple airport tax is all that is needed, but that won't line the corporate pockets that control the government

The Stv visa has done its job

First flight full of CP Group executives to purchase Phuket. 

A few Scandinavians thrown in to make it look good. 

There is also a private jet following CT Group executives with 7 big Chinese boys on board. 

How will the 100k arrive? 

Easy, no quarantine needed, they will be vaccinated, China will release its vaccine next month. 

The first 100k will be sent to Bubble Island..... Kho Samui, numbers will grow after all looks good then it will be Chinese only until Europe gets a FDA approval for a vaccine.

China wanted to beat Donald Trump, they have and now Donald has Covid, and his wife as well.
