Thailand to Implement 300-Baht Fee for Foreign Arrivals
kiwikeith replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Exactly, why not collect it on arrival and charge according to visa, a 90 day would be 900 bht and a twelve month 3600 bht, put it in a slush fund for insurance and health m/ tourism, but again 2many fingers might get jambed in the till -
I suppose Jing Thing you would like to have Nato on your doorstep if you were Russian and you would be happy to accept weapons to kill ethnic Russian people in Donesk and bury them in mass graves if you were an Azov neo nazi fascist, graves still being excavated this day, an atrocitie that has been happening for the last 8 years, after the USA financed the overthrow of the elected government. Did you not know that the Ukraine is in Massive debt to the IMF and the USA, that they have given up assets for these loans. Kennedy was angry at Cuba for having missile sites supplied by Russia on its doorstep, nearly started WW3 and now the USA is doing the same thing, only they are doing more, they supply weapons and mercanary fighters to a racist dictator who sold his country out, watch some more???? CNN Jing, the most discredited news in the USA, because Russian news has been censored, so your not allowed to see both sides of the argument, because we're all just supposed to be little puppets.

I don't think he means that, general health insurance yes but covid is a joke now. My wife's best friend got BA. 1,and hospital Sent her home to Isolate 11 days, then a few weeks ago she got BA. 2 and the kids and hubby all got it again went to Huahin hospital and sent home with paracetamol and told to isolate, she talks to my wife every day and she did not get sicker just a runny nose and mild headache for a few days the kids never knew they had it, so unless you're a tourist who is obese, with lung disease or diabetes, then maybe, unless you have had Omicron already you should consider covid insurance, but that's only how it seems to be with omicron worldwide.

Thailand further eases entry restrictions for international travellers
kiwikeith replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
. Myself and many, many friends and their children are unvaccinated, we have all had Omicron, mainly caught from the kids bringing it home from school, all off us breezed through it, the kids hardly a snivel and no one is sick or reinfected. However the worst affected was my Thai wife and my friends Thai wife, both forced to be fully vaxxed with 2 doses of Pfizer or loose their jobs, both of them spent over a week in bed while the rest of us hardly a snivel. I told my Dr this she was not surprised, she said she was concerned about myocarditis in children at present. -
Dr Watsons Theory was that the Hotels and Insurance companies expected to make a killing with a massive in flow of tourists, instead this has promoted dislike of the system and tourists are not wanting to go through this nonsense which is hurting Thailand and its people (The small traders) so scrap the <deleted> and get on with it, open up its endemic time!!.

Why are westerners so offended over the word farang? Get over it.
kiwikeith replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Some one is desperate for a story, what nonsense , here's some useful knowledge- The Samoan word for of white skin is Palangi , (pronounced Palungi) the NZ word is Pakeha , the word is similar in other Asian countries and throughout the pacific. So the word comes from Asian languages and does not offend me or any person I have ever known in Thailand, I am not offended by Pakeha and I lived in Samoa for one year and was not offended by Palangi, what a load of nonsense. -

CCSA to Consider Proposal to Suspend Test & Go and Thailand Pass
kiwikeith replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Vaccine passports have been scrapped in most countries now NZ scrapped them on the 5th of April, covid is over football stadiums are back to normal and masks just about gone now, still a lot of cases in some countries but all the graphs are going down, its over, a few more months and it will be endemic, its probably that now. Nightclubs open, no limits on numbers or masks required. -
Some will make a killing growing this <deleted> and selling it, and who is going to control the strength of this dope, the dopes that push it, Thailand will fill up with stoneheads, couple that with alcohol and driving and guns, the wild wild west will be established, crime will flourish, just imagine all the stoned idiots riding bike's around with 3 children on board, f ing stupidity at the least.

Do you believe in the weekly Covid case statistics anymore?
kiwikeith replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Yes it has, one good friend reports from Hua Hin she has her second infection of Omicron, the first BA1 now she has BA.2 and the whole family has it, first time just the mother and she isolated for 11 days, now the whole family isolating, kids , Mom and dad, but no one is sick , just flue symptoms and mild, so looks like BA.2 is surging ahead and displacing BA.1 which seems to have spread through and now BA.2 is causing a mild second infection. -

If you compare the UK population- wise, 65 million, Thailand 69 million and the time Omicron arrived, about the same time for both countries then Thailand's figures are way off . They will see a BA.2 surge as the UK and the USA are going through, then we now have XE a combinate of BA.1 and BA.2 to displace BA.2.but so far not proving not to be any worse. So Thailand must have some secret, probable answer is ,it has spread through the population quickly and they have acquired natural immunity, as happened in Uganda with 12 % of the population double vaccinated and virtually no cases anymore they report natural acquired immunity from natural infection.
