As Thailand is the worlds largest and cheapest sex tourist destination it will always be busy. 

If you want sex tourism go to Philippines much cheaper. Good Luck.

I an sure once all restrictions lifted tourists will return to Thailand but it was very clear before the pandemic that tourist numbers were diminishing also not land of smiles for some time you realise this immediately you reach immigration no smiles and no welcome and heaven help you if you have not fiilled in your landing card correctly now officials lose their tempers quickly for every one to see before anger was controlled with patience and a helping hand. Thailand is also much more expensive with hotels charging very high rates and then adding service charges VAT and local room tax increasing prices by a hugh 19%. Not to mention the disgraceful way tourists presently being treated with scam Insurance polices suspicious Positive PCR tests enforced auarantine Baht 10,000 per day with cash payment in advance not recoverable from the insurance if no medical treatment required and increased airfares in particular to Samui where you are now charged extra for baggage seat allocation etc not small amounts exceeding Baht 1,000 for baggage each way, departure tax Baht 1,000 Samui/BKK airports and it goes on and on 

The poor little girl must be traumatised the very least the owner can do is to have the dogs put down and to offer the child compensation for the suffering that she has incured. 

Bless them they must be really feeling the pinch with all bars closed for such a long time. Where are they finding the money to buy the necessities of their profession 

Lot of nonsense China will not be interested in a travel bubble with Thailand just have to look at the Olympics without spectators. Thailand has not introduced quarantine free entry Test and Go is still quarantine, with every chance of being infected from local transmission between first and second PCR which gives hotels every opportunity of false positive PCR result with second test especially when further PCR refused if there is a dispute as the hotels have to be contracted with a hospital hungry for money. There is no enthusiasm from Government to allow entry into Thailand without conditions they just make noises that they are to placate the tourist industry meanwhile Thailand will lose out to other nearby countries that are allowing unrestricted entry 

Thailand including Thai Airways has lost credibility its fleet has been reduced to old outdated Air Craft very expensive to operate so there is no way they can get back the routes and respect they had prior to the Pandemic they are charging double fares of other airlines with modern fleets and owe so many customers money for cancelled flights. The same applies to the Thai Tourism as a whole.

Thai Tourism industry in its fragile state is shooting its self in the foot. It is better to close the borders and stop all these scams.  There are now plenty of countries allowing entry without restrictions until Thailand can do likewise and treat Tourists with the respect they deserve it is better to keep borders closed 

Unfortunately the way tourist are being treated is disgraceful scam after scam Insurance that does not pay out test a d go without quarantine this is just not true requirement to have phone capable of installing tracking devices it goes on and on. It is best to avoid Thailand at all costs until all restrictions of entry removed 

Big problem for Thailand is that many countries are now opening up with only requirement PCR negative test before departure.

It looks  lije there is far more Omicron infections in Thailand than reported  as it is so infectous nearly everyone will be infected from local transmissions thus restrictions on incoming foreigners no longer necessary if they have negative  PCR within 72 hours before entering Thailand. 

Reality is that Omicron is now present  in Thailand and likely to infect everyone. There is no point in restricting foreigners entering the country except they are likely to be infected with Omicron from local transmission so make a decision either open or keep the borders closed this is the only decision required of the Government. There must also be a liability of selling Covid insurance which did not cover expenses of many incarcerated in expensive hospitals needing no actual medical  attention.

Vaccines have saved lives and delayed spread of Covid. Now the viras has mutated to cause mainly milder symptoms it is time to slowly get back to normal and stop the suffering being caused to those who are economically unfairly affected..

Omicron is almost certainly well established in Thailand thus any visitors are more likely  to be infected from Thai Population the best way to reopen the country js without quarantine or any other requirements except Fully vaccinated and negative PCR before arrival. Tracking apps and PCR tests after arrival should be avoided.

UK Insurance companies pay hospitals direct for medical treated they have been notified and covered by their policy. The so called Thai Covid Insurance only pays after hospital bills have been paid provided for actual medical treatment. The Thai compulsory Covid insurance should be cancelled as not fit for purpose
