  1. I don’t sympathize with the government’s reticence, paranoia and general idiocy in this matter.  I was very close to diverting to the US to take care of some business in March. I would still be stuck there had I done so but at the time I thought there was absolutely no way the lockdown nonsense would go past September. A reasonable but wrong assumption.  

  2. I booked 2 AirBnB's and 2 4 star hotels starting Oct 23.  Everything seemed to be normal, with Agoda saying there was high occupancy.  Though they might say it's FULL if in fact the hotel is shutdown.  People that been there recently said it's still pretty good and not all doom and gloom like phuket although there are definitely closures.   Centara Koh Chang Tropicana Resort, Costa Lanta, and Anna resorts I can attest are nice resorts and open.

    They were in complete denial about the stupidity of their own actions on here shortly after the lockdown commenced. Blaming everyone except themselves for their own bad decisions.

     

    It was obvious that a lockdown could happen as early as end of Feb so anyone travelling subsequent to that period took a massive risk.

     

    Well, it's not really your home is it? Or are you still in denial about your status here? 

     

    Some people will never learn I guess.

    Home is where the heart is.  Is it not?   Home isn’t a legal status.

    It’s hard to feel any sympathy for their predicament when they continue with their hare-brained schemes convincing themselves that people who don’t want to go to Phuket are going to put up with being quarantined in a hotel for 2 weeks. 
     

    Then have to stay another week just to squeeze a bit more out of you before you can move on. Add to that the 2 weeks when they get back, that’s five weeks wasted before you have your holiday. What tourists do they actually think will put up with this?
     

    For sure, there will be a few desperate souls who will pay and put up with anything to see their Teerak once again and stay for a few months but 2 million? Even if they do extend it to other areas I can’t see those numbers. 
     

    Get real. 

    And the lucky souls that get a false positive from the unreliable PCR test.  Oh my a vacation to remember.

    Cool story, but does not answer my question.

     

    The article says people have not been able to go home due to closed home borders, which countries have not allowed its citizens to return ?

    Google isn’t your friend?  You expect someone to make the effort for you if you have insufficient interest to find out for yourself?
