I'm one of those, you know...ex-SAS

I salute you Sir - POTY

Something tells me this is going to be an absolute shi*show. The phooyai's in charge are going to want a big fat cut of the pie, for which the Saudi's will happily oblige and ultimately, it's the Thai laborer who will get reamed and exploited to no end. Poor working/living conditions - check Passport confiscated - check Treated like dirt - check Paying huge "commissions" to middle-men, just to get the job - check

It's karma - pure and simple. How the Thai's treat migrant laborers from Myanmar, Laos & Cambodia is how the Saudi's will treat migrant labors from Thailand.

Think you might have gotten short-changed. My Hansum Man perception jumped up 12 notches post-COVID. Recently confirmed by a handful of cooties in Soi 6 as well - "You so hansum - why I never see you before theerak"

The idiotic Brit tourist should have known better than to play loud music at 3 am, and antagonise a lower-class Thai male on top of that. He joins an ever-growing line of farangs hacked/slashed to death by a Thai male, over something trivial that quickly escalated to gargantuan proportions.

Oh the irony - now it's the farang playing loud music until 3 am

Probably lost it because he didn't pass the Thailand Pass application.

What would happen in case the previous employer was bought out by another company or the company closed down.

1 day quarantine = no quarantine. Same same but different.

T21 food court is way better than the supermarket food court below Robinsons.

They better start building a huge stockpile of straws, for all those shared Cokes.

I think internet freedom is a relatively moot point from a technical aspect. Sure, governments can implement blocks and firewalls to filter out sensitive content, but those are precisely the type of blocks that VPN's are built to get around.

Doubt anybody's coming though. China still has mandatory 2-week quarantine for passengers returning back (even vaccinated Chinese citizens) from overseas.

Question - what if the restaurants don't give a hoot, and allow willing customers to dine-in regardless? Is anything being enforced on the ground level?
