  1. Even if the North Pole sea ice all melted, it would not change sea levels one millimeter. Ice floating on water displaces exactly the same amount of water if melted.
  2. It apperas that the so-called vaccines don't stop it either. See Waterford, Ireland. Or Israel.
  3. Does anyone know where a person under 30 can walk in to get a first jab of any of the vaccines? My friend is expat and willing to pay, but cannot find a place.
  4. I would also ask what it was like getting the police report and 5 disease check (leprosy, syphilis, et al) in Vietnam so that you could get that O-A visa. Here in China, it takes about a year to process a police report and I cannot find any hospital or clinic that can check for all of the diseases on the list. I called the Thai Embassy in Beijing and asked if they could recommend a place and they basically told me: "not their problem".
  5. How convenient for the CCP which has been trying to stop the hemorraging of all that foreign currency reserves.
  6. I agree with you in part; the fancy Gold card is absolutely useless. Worse than useless actually, because you are told it will assist in things like opening a bank account, etc. Nope, not one bit. The Visa itself enables anyone under 50 yo a way to stay in Thailand long term. Nothing more.
  7. I beg to differ. For anyone under 50yo, the so-called Elite Visa offers a way to stay long term in Thailand. Yes, it is expensive, it is no more than a glorified Tourist Visa with no extra usable benefits and you get basically no assistance from the Elite company, it still has it's place.
  8. I fly Business Class to and from Canada and I care what my taxi fare is.......
  9. Agreed. When so-called Earth day comes around. I turn every light, air con, fan and any other appliance I can find on for the night.

  11. You have hit the nail on the head. How convenient for the CCP this virus scare. They can make it so Chinese people don't/won't/can't leave and take all that foreign currency out with them.
  12. They only wish. UK level travel restrictions? Far from it. They take it to a whole new level in China. First two weeks in a government designated hotel. You have no choice and no idea of which hotel until you are delivered to it on a bus. Then 3rd week in a hotel if you have no home in China. If you have a home in China, you can stay there but cannot leave that home during that 3rd week. Then an additional 4th week for observation in some locales. I am just finishing up that 4th week. A total of 8 PCR tests in that 4 week period. Had to pay for 7 of them. So, I don't think you will see very many Chinese tourists in Thailand anytime soon, if ever.
  13. Is that the same Fauci that was caught out lying about the Gain of Function research in China funded by the NIH that he was in charge of? The same Fauci that approved killing beagles in Tunisia with sand flies. Yep, a true hero!
