Surely just paying the bar fines and subsidies drinks in bars would ensure ensure much more happy times or farangs ????????

Probably do better to offer buy one bar fine get one free. At least tourists visiting bars spend money that gets back to Isaan.

Tomorrow they will insist that you employ a Thai guide to follow you every where to report where you are. It will help reduce the unemployment rate too.

Wild rabid dogs on the beach the biggest complaint from the Chinese
For the poorer Thais the major complaints are the Chinese who only spend money in business owned by rich Chinese Thai owned businesses!

Shooting by rifles. Say 10 rifles but only 2 with live bullets. Then no body feels that they were the killer. Having people in jail for 30 odd years before they are executed is inhumane.

It won’t be 10,000.
That is what the TAT have said. They said it won’t reach 10,000. They are not claiming 10,000.Why even put the number 10,000 forward when 2,000 probably won't be achievable!

And your point is?
They will lose Thai customers and the few farangs who are still in Thailand. Thais take the family with them and often drink heavily with their food.

But within three, maybe four years, there will be more foreigners visiting Thailand than ever before.
I doubt that once farangs find other places to visit that they will find Thailand as attractive as before. It's a very long journey and for example my daughter and her family come here to eat and party. However most of her favourite restaurants are now closed and the closing hours of most places she likes to go out to at night are the same time that clubs open up in London UK.

Its pretty much always been a Thai resort. Never were many foreigners there.
The Thais drink as much as the farangs!

PM 2.5 was over 80 on the 19th which is when people might have decided whether or not to have come to Pattaya. Today it's 24.

Disgraceful the land was given to help the poor. They borrow against the land can't pay back what they have borrowed and it lands up in the hands of the rich who can now freely develop it!

One less resort that I will visit. The Mayor sure is doing a good job of killing off the small amount of trade that the beach currently attracts by banning booze.

The target at the moment is a paltry 1,000 a month and they reached 681 probably including some business people. Now with this magical package they think that they can get 2,000 a month. The bureaucracy and paperwork required to come here is too much already and who wants to spend their first week locked up in an expensive hotel room and the second week confined to the hotel grounds.
TAT doesn't understand the meaning of travel bubble arrangements between countries with very low rates of covid19. Remove the restrictions on these countries apart from pre flight covid19 tests and by all means do covid19 tests on arrival and even 5, 10 and 14 days later and then quarantine won't be necessary.

'Foreign investors' - I wish they would give a breakdown of who these investors are and where are they based?
Could easily be from money parked abroad by rich Thai people in shell companies! Who knows. Certainly a lot of black money.

Brilliant achievement as his goal was 300 tourists a week which would make 1,285 the goal for November. 681 arrivals would be 53% of target but the 681 would include include business people and retirees coming/returning to Thailand. How many of the 681 were tourists?

"She claimed that everyone wants to learn about things like weaving bags and baskets and mats, fishing and painting on handicrafts and the like."
When will wishful Thai people realise that their are other countries in the world that welcome tourists without them having to cope with a barrage of paperwork and two weeks of compulsory quarantine prison before their holiday can even begin? High spenders are the least likely of all to put up with this nonsense.

Obviously this is a fact as over half of small businesses in Pattaya have closed down and more than 50% of restaurants are closed and the ones that are open have low occupancy except on weekends. Places that relied on overseas tourism are dying on their feet and many more businesses in the main resorts like Pattaya are planning to shut down.
-
Whilst expensive prison is required whether it be 10 or 14 days tourists will go to other countries for their holidays. Thailand is no longer a country of smiles it has changed beyond belief since I first came here in 1980.

The rich capitalists who own the big tech companies support the leftist movements and censor Republican posts. They are protected by Section 320 because they are not publishers but in their acts of censoring posts they actually become publishers so they shouldn't be protected by section 320.

Just saying that in most airports around the world will get you arrested and the airline has the right to sue you for any losses it might have suffered if the flight was delayed.

He told me it was the worst thing that ever happened to him and this guy isn't a wuss. Considering that there are more and more people catching it a second time and that apparently the second time around is worst... My vote is on the side of prudence. What is tourism worth if half the population is down with the virus?
We've been safe so far, keep it that way.
What does having the equivalent of 500,000 baht in your "foreign" bank account have to do with being able to come to Thailand? Who in their right mind keeps dead money earning no interest?

Get rid of the crazy red tape to come to Thailand and then tourists will come back. A covid19 test and covid19 insurance should be enough. Expensive enforced imprisonment in a hotel room for a week followed by being limited to the hotel grounds for a further week is plainly not an enticement to visit Thailand.

They couldn't find the canal because it had been built over! Why were they trying to look for something that obviously they wouldn't even be able to see?
