    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. 

  7. 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

    Me First!  (packs bags)...lines up for GPS implant and tagging-branding and Phone tracing

    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.

    No problem, the first 2 loads of Chinese, 1 goes to Pattaya to buy all the empty guest houses and bars and organise there refitting into gold shops, money exchanges, Chinese hotels and luxury spas. 

    This has already happened in Chiang Mai, and you should see the glistening gold shops and Casino on the main Rd of Tachilek now 

     

    The other goes to Bummingrad hospital for treatment. 

    The scandanavians are just wealthy people returning to their holiday homes. 

    The second act to follow STV will be 6 million Chinese who have been vaccinated. 

    Act 3 will be Russians with a Sputnik 5 certificate. 

    Europeans will have to wait for the Yanks to get the Fda to give the green light to whichever of the big pharma companies in the multi billion dollar political fight. 

    The Thailand after lockdown will be vapourised and replaced with the above. 

    Update 

    The first flight which is going to Phuket from China is made up by 120 CP group corporate business men. They have paid 173K Bht for the trip which includes 3 meals a day, Quarantine, Covid tests, airfares and insurance. Plus visa 

    They are not classified as normal tourists they will spend 90 days in Phuket. Just read this on independent news source outside Thailand and I don't think that they will be wearing wrist bands. Their mission will be called Snap. 

    Snap up all the bargains. 

     

    Also news today China is already vaccinating hundreds of thousands including business men and vaccine company staff. 

    So Prayut knows more than you think, Thailand is about to be rolled over, Walking St will be the main St of the new China Town Phuket. 

    A casino might even be on the cards. 

    Oh, also what a great way to secretly test that these vaccinated business men do not infect a single soul or become infected 

    A Mr Dhanin is a Chinese billionaire based in Bangkok and is chairman of CP Group, go figure

    yeah, its shocking.

    on another note, allowing cars on WS is the dumbest thing this city could have ever come up with,

    i truly hope the guilty will burn in hell.

    why not rename it driving street while you are at it destroying this iconic street

    +Do not fair, there is a STV flight on the way to Walking Street shortly to buy everything up and turn it into glitzy gold shops, money lending shops and high class Chinese spas and guest houses

    In other words, Samui, Phuket, Pattaya and other popular tourist destinations will not be hiring back the 10's of thousands of workers that have departed anytime soon.

    Only a few going to Phuket, to buy up the bars and guest houses and turn them into gold shops and high class spa parlours. 

    The rest going to Bangkok for medical treatment. 

    The next wave after Xmas will be Chinese and Russians that have been vaccinated 6 million Chinese lined up then Sputnik 5 Russians will follow, long time for vaccinated euros to be allowed in as they are to busy fighting over who will be the winner of the vaccine race

    I doubt anything will come out of it. Khun Prayut will have all his ducks in a row on this.

    Well, the air- conditioning installed on  Big Jokes BMW was not enough to put him off.

    Best of Luck to him, I hope he gets something out of it. Looking into the cauldron, I see toil and trouble, under reported protests , the plot is thickening, someone may be polishing their shoes at the military camp to step in with a new coup, then the PM can join Big Joke down south and relax on the beautiful empty beaches.

    Sounds easy on the film clip but anyone with a little background knowledge will understand it better and realise what it really entails, even obtaining a flight is going to be problematic unless of course some business person has already designs on chartering flights at an exorbitant price of course. Also I hope the Thai travel company enlighten people as to the expenses they will incur for the isolation, before shopping online .............LOL

    Does not mention you have to show adequate funds in the bank and prove that you haven't been in large crowds for the last 6 weeks. 

     

    The first flight has awaiting list of 750 Chinese wanting hospital treatments and another 1500 from Japan and Arab countries all wanting medical services 

     

    So the first huge success story is a flight from China to Bumingrad, then a trip to Pattaya to drop buts on the beach, while recovering
