Paddy The Room Trading Indicted for Medical Glove Case
CLW replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Given the company description I would reckon it is some hi-so businessman operation. Can't see anything happen than just a slap on the wrist for some high ranking in the food chain. I hope the international / US press will follow up this case -
80,000 Thai truckers to go on strike on Monday over diesel prices
CLW replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Good news. I am on their side. This is the first strike in Thailand I've heard of that could have an impact -
In other words, they won't do anything. Great. But I didn't expect any real outcome from these clowns

From the leaves I would say its Plumeria / Frangipani. But usually they have different flowers....

Phuket “sandbox” model adapted for Bangkok’s international airports
CLW replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
Don Mueang expects 10.000 arrivals per Day. Lol. What are they smoking? Or another broken calculator? How many people have arrived through the praised Phuket sandbox? Around 300 per day maybe... -
Still wondering how they want to guide incoming tourists at the airports? And why they don't offer a PCR test right after arrival? Barrow wrote something that you'll have to take a hotel limousine to the testing location. Probably also the same from the airport to your hotel. As of now, absolutely unclear procedure and just ten days left for 1st November. Nightmare for incoming tourists I would say

A nightmare is unfolding.....
CLW replied to Will B Good's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
Wait until he goes bankrupt. In the current economical climate shouldn't take much long. Thais don't have a business plan or plan B if something not working out. So the problem might resolve by itself before you move into your new house. -
Doi Angkhang is great. I was there pre-covid and the national park administration had a fantastic restaurant and renting out nice bungalows.

Good for you and don't get it wrong. KK is a nice city and I've been there several times visiting Thai friends. But I doubt a lot of tourists will go there on purpose. For them the situation in Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket and Chiang Mai is important. As long as there's no alcohol, no nightlife, curfew etc. Who will come to visit Thailand?

Bed Pillow - whats the best non-feather pillow ?
CLW replied to Speedo1968's topic in General Topics
IKEA. Plenty of choice from different fillings and shapes/hardness -
Honda ADV 150. I've rented it for two weeks in Phuket and was totally happy. Much better suspension and comfortable driving than the PCX. Could have a little more power for acceleration but I'm not a fast driver anyways. Cruising between 80 and 100 is fine. It even has a nice sound I think. If I wouldn't be driving manual bikes over automatic, I would buy the ADV.

Thailand to scrap quarantine for vaccinated visitors from Nov 1
CLW replied to Jonathan Fairfield's topic in Thailand News
Too early to rejoice. Wait for the details and small print. Also no name or source given in the article. I believe there will be still some kind of quarantine or minimum stay... Not to mention the COE or insurance requirements. Tourists want to arrive with their passports at immigration and get a stamp as in pre-Covid times. If not, the masses will choose alternatives countries.- 606 replies

Phuket jogger could be a dollar millionaire after he finds lump of whale vomit!
CLW replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
First he must find a buyer that pays his millions dream sum. Same with Buddha amulet. Theoretically worth a lot of money but you must find someone (stupid) to sell to.
