A company has to weigh all options before making a big investment anywhere in the world.  Thailand may be appealing to some.  But my guess is many will end up else where. 

Vietnam?

I would be fascinated to learn how scanning a person's fingerprints and face at the airport could help find that person at a hotel that does not scan the fingerprints or faces of its guests.

I believe the word has come down from the top, promote the biometric system at any opportunity. Especially the smart cars.

This must be a misunderstanding...this can not be...I have been told by long stay posters here that there is no corruption in Thailand!  ????

When everyone is in on it, its not corruption its just the way of life.

I dont know who comes up with these predictions for lost revenue my prediction is you open Thailand the tourists will come back quickly!

I don't think your following the play. Its clear to most that no one is going anywhere any time soon.

The Chinese are trying to fight off a global enquiry into how they let the virus out, are they ready to unleash their hords across borders?

Leave the Covid 19 out and the headline is still reads  "a disaster for Thailand"

Let the RTP pay them some emergency money they have got rich from the red light districts!

Well that clears it up. 

If they are to be the economic managers they want to be or think they are, why is Panasonic scaling down their investment in Thailand? Have the Thai government looked into this at all,  do they understand this and if so what mitigation is required to prevent others from doing the same are they able to provide an investment friendly environment for multinationals?

OK prime minister another letter to the Thai oligachs, well maybe not. 

Forget the numbers of covid 19 cases and their localities, all tourists will be directed to Phuket,  Bangkok and where ever the bagmen demand they go. 

30 planes or 53, or do they only want back rent for 30?

...hmmm that dude from the health ministry has not been in the news lately...put him in charge...

Perfect, a 500% increase in ticket price for the dirty farang.

I believe the fate of the airline is a mirror to how the country will perform with so many plundering the public purse and with tourism down and likely to be down for some time.

There would be no time like to present to have the enthusiasm and entrepreneurial skill of some one like Thanathorn. Sadly banished by the dinosaurs so busily engineering their own extinction. 

OK, so what village hedman's relative or some other untouchable is involved here?

If your choice is to be Vegan or whatever variation of it you choose, I have no issue with that.

What on earth is this some some chemical concoction with some vegetable matter thrown in?

Be a vegan, eat meat whatever but is this a healthy choice?

I don't believe tourism is starting any time soon and no one can predict when.

I will however predict some good bargains when it starts to recover and I'm not referring to Thailand just in general.

Court led, Huh.

So the politicians hand ball the hot potato to the Judiciary.

Well played the usual take no responsibility, pass the buck to others.

Apart from Bangla Road most bars in Phuket would be pretty safe.

To lose thai Air would be a loss of face, bail them out again.

I would invite TAT to bring on the numbers of expected arrivals, come on knock us out.????????

What have courts got to do with this? 

Oh there picking up a fee to give advice on more public finds needed to keep Thai in the air.
