  1. This reads to me like that hotelier is saying foreigners are more responsible drinkers than regular Thai people, who can’t control themselves. This won’t be received too well.
  2. Most of the big wigs here never got past basic algebra in school. They all graduated top of their class in butt kissing and nepotism. That’s why we have millions of tourists expected to arrive next year apparently with no airplanes to transport them here.
  3. That safe country list looks a lot like the ones who spends the most money list. The US has a ton of documented cases and deaths, yet make the list. I’m not saying keep them off the list, I’m just saying relabel the list.
  4. That’s all he’s been working on these past few months. Getting Thailand off the UK list for banned travel. Great work!
  5. The guy loved money so much, he carried around 300,000 baht and still decided to rob a guy for MORE money. And he told his mom he was carrying around all that money, in case something happened to him.
  6. People who run this country don’t like to reinvest money into the country. Instead, they are more interested in buying nice cars and watches so their friends and underlings can be jealous of them.
  7. The sandbox is and always has been a scheme to keep money flowing to wealthy Thais first and let the other peons scramble for leftover scraps. Make tourists stay in a limited selection of expensive hotels for a set number of days, geez I wonder how you get selected to be one of the few hotels authorized to house tourists?
  8. The man is in his own home defending himself. Let’s see what the Thai authorities do and see if they try to spin this or not. Or try to extract money from the Swiss guy somehow before they make a decision.
  9. This is what happens when the powers that be hate foreigners but love their money. You get all these awful restrictions fearmongering about foreigners bringing in covid when it’s already spreading locally. Bite the bullet and vaccinate the population. But they always looking to skim and line their pockets, mucking up everything.
  10. People who have no abilities except butt kissing make it to the top here. That’s how you end up with that new slogan. I read it and shook my head.
  11. Whenever someone who hasn’t been to pattaya asks a question to someone who has been there, it’s not “where is a good place to eat?” or “what temples or beaches do you recommend?” it’s always some version of “Sex. Where? How much?” Won’t change no matter what they say.
  12. It’s the US senators fault. She should know to give a little extra on the side for some high ranking official and his friends who have to distribute this free vaccine. Whos getting paid? It’s hard to do all that work and get no compensation.
  13. The U.S senator forgot to make two photocopies of each page and then sign each page in blue ink. But seriously, she could have avoided all this misunderstanding if she had just figured out a way to funnel some money to certain people. It may be free vaccines for regular people, but someone high up gotta get paid. Otherwise what’s the point of public service?
  14. Yeah, but when the Chinese offered up sinovac to him, it was just some random rich Chinese guy looking to make some connections. And the vaccine wasn’t even donated! But when the Americans want to donate better vaccines, it has to go through the “proper” channels.
  15. A handful of positive covid cases from foreign tourists in Phuket and everyone gets all scared. Lock them down, don’t let them travel! Make them stay in govt approved hotels to keep the rich Thais happy, but also to stop the spread! Meanwhile, hundreds of local cases everyday, no one bats an eye. Is the virus more dangerous when a tourist has it but not a Thai? I guess so.
  16. How many policemen do you need for a reenactment of a murder? I guess the answer is 200. What if it’s just petty theft? 40 policemen?
  17. The powers that be don’t care if foreigners support the local economy. It doesn’t line their pockets. Or not enough. They want more. Money should not go to locals and working Thais, it has to all go to those in power. Nice watches aren’t cheap.
  18. Right now as we speak, the big wigs are thinking about how they will skim off some of that 600 million while acting like they are seeking justice for the public. Those guys are always and only about the money.
  19. The minister thinks he’s in America where everyone who wants to get vaccinated can get it anywhere they want, anytime they want. Might be true for him and his rich buddies, not so much for the peons.
  20. Just look at his assets, his wife’s assets, kids assets, relatives assets, maybe even maids and drivers assets. In fact, look at all of the politicians and generals and top cops. Tell me what you find…if you are still alive!
  21. The police and govt want people to only talk about the murder and nothing else. They hoping people don’t look into how a cop amassed all his wealth on a salary like his.
  22. If a vaccine is only 50% effective, it’s not a vaccine, it’s vitamin C. Thais know their govt bought lots of sinovac to please the Chinese, not for the good of public health.
  23. This is what happens when the whole Phuket sandbox scheme was to keep the money flowing to rich hotel owners only, and hope for a trickle down effect. Get them stuck in expensive hotels for at least a week, all money flows to the rich, and who cares afterwards.
