Don't you know the old adage concerning polls?

Visiting the elderly/handicapped/bedridden.

Well, good effort but why they can't use a proper EMS or other van?

Looks a bit like a PR stunt?

At the vaccination here in the subdistrict a whole armada of vehicles and staff came from the district hospital. Incl. computers/monitors, mobile router and UPS to do the registration and such. And except for the bedridden everyone found someone to help with transport (max 2 km to the health station).

I'm jealous !

The Thai military must make money, even by a pandemy. No problem, no moral!

Completely unnecessary sandbox system, if people have had 2 doses of Pfizer, Moderna or Astra Z. . Because the corrupt military elite wants this sandbox - even if 2x vaccinated already - it's proof by 100%, that some money of the overpriced ASQ hote bills of the quarantine goes in their pockets.

In Thailand it's completely impossible to follow the money, particularly  when it goes in military pockets. Or did you hear or read that somebody has been allowed "to follow the money" on miliitary bank accounts? Controls impossible!

Sadly they could be having 2 shots of Pfizer or AZ free of charge. Many already double jabbed.

 

 

Not everywhere in Thailand ! Especially Pfizer not available, even if you would pay for it.

I first sent an email to Phuket consulate asking about this, you can send the documents online (scan pension letter from your pension provider, scan of first page of your passport) When they confirmed they would send the letter they sent a bank account number, after payment at the bank I had to scan the receipt and send it per email, they said the letter will be sent with the next post. Pattaya also has this service but you have to send cash by EMS.

I can confirm exactly the same service (confirmation of income) by the Germnan Honorary Consulate in Chiang Mai, this year (because of Covid). Excellent and with common sense!

Vaccination does not stop infection or transmission, people who are vaccinated can still become infected, to not test would be foolhardy

That is a hugely dumbed down and oversimplified binary response…

 

Vaccination cuts down infection, the severity of infection and transmission. 
 

Vaccination with vaccines reported to have a greater efficacy improve this to the degree that with sufficient numbers (percentages of a population) vaccinated with an effective vaccine testing may not be necessary at all.

 

It is at this stage we move on with life and handle Covid-19 as we do other respiratory illnesses. 

 

It seems you have read RJRS' comment a little bit to fast. Look at the last part of his paragraph.

Yes, the military regime doesn't won't to slash the money-milking pandemie cow. As long as possible!

An idea for the future:

make a colored copy of this card and save the paper in your IMMI-folder i.e.

I have cut it out and you will see no difference to the original !

Here in our village it is confirmed - even by the street dogs - that dogs are wonderful animals. We live here alraedy for 16 years, never heard about a street dog biting somebody. The motor taxi drivers near the market take a little bit care for them, some people with shops on the street, too.

I have there some favorites. Every day I go down to the village, I buy some chicken or pork sticks and feed them. One dog followes me already going downwards. When leaving the market, normaly 4 are behind me on the mainroad, up in the soi just to a bridge over a stream. There they are stopped by a Lizhu-dog, which controlles this area. Will also receive some meet. The nice thing, all show me they are happy to see me and - of course - receiving some food.

The remaining meat is for our own 2 dogs already waiting for me on the cement way up to our land. It's like a ceremony, all involved like it and are happy. Not biting each other!

But if I would meet a dog, as reported here, I would go to the village with a scythe blade on a stick to protect me. The dog would regret it attacking me!

Good news, Air Asia.

We hope these tickets for flights from CNX - Hua Hin will be available in the coming Northern "smoky season" (2022).

You made this ugly eperience at the Grace reception about one year ago. Interesting, that "she" is still there, because I have had this bad experience with her a lot of years ago. Isn't  a good advertising for Grace. 

Normaly she should have been fired. But I guess she must be connected to somebody in this clinic. It's up to the boss/es,  now not my problem anymore.

Chiang Mai has a lot of excellent dentists. Dr. Korakot and Dr. Chanika of the Grace Dental clinic are 2 of them (my own experience).

But some years ago I stopped going there. The reason: a woman with a very deep  voice at the reception ( was new there). As usual,  I asked by e-mail for an appointment,  because I  live 4 hours away of Chiang Mai. I had to repeat it 3 times, never received an answer. Then I called them. I reported this ugly behaviour during the next treatment to Dr, Korakot, the boss. Nothing happened.

The same behavior again by this "woman". Now I recognized it was intentional. The years before it had never happened this way. I reported it to Dr. Korakot again, but no excuse. This was the reason I canceled the next appointment and never returned to Grace.

As I said before, Chiang Mai is famous for having a lot of excellent dentists. That was proven when I changed to Dentalworld (on the SouthWest corner of the moat).  Beside good dentists the ladies at the rexception are reliable/okay.

When I read in some threads how pedantic the officers in some IMOs are, then I get it. They want that you do your duty with the aid of an agent.

That means:  MONEY, MONEY ... for the poor officers, at your cost!

My experience, not only in Thailand:

the more stupid and incompetent the bureaucratic officers are, the more pedantic and wicked are they with unessential issues/problems.

i.e.: blue or black coloured signatures. etc.

Never have had a problem with the colour of a signature in Mae Hong Son, now Pai.

It's almost funny when some people pretend they know what I think.

How often do I have to write that I would love to see the day when Thai people vote for honest and competent politicians?

And then it's up to the Thai people if they want a left or right or whatever government. It's their country. It's their decision.

Voting for corrupt criminals is contra productive. It's amazing that I have to repeat that simple fact.

You repeat it like a prayer an any time: Thaksin = criminal.

Concerning "criminal"; don't you think that making a cup wasn't done by a military criminal ??? And you are contradictory to yourself:

[quote]And then it's up to the Thai people if they want a left or right or whatever government. It's their country. It's their decision.[/quote]

In China and Russia i.e. there are people taken into prison for "criminal" reasons. That only happens because the 3.rd power of a state is not allowed to work freely. The same happens in Thailand at the moment. Under "normal" democratic circumstances a cup-maker (Prayut) would be convicted as a criminal.

It seems you are so blind to recognize this. Buy some glasses to read about "criminals".

Face mask for the "boy" and the "beaver"?
