  1. Locals (as in those living and proving so in the locality) getting a dispensation is one thing ,but effectively,as here ,simply being judged by the colour of your face at the kiosk (even if a farang living locally) is altogether quite different. If you simply look like a Thai ,even if living abroad, like my stepdaughter , and enjoying the discount is really nothing short of racism.
  2. Are you equally advocating that if it turns out the Thais were the instigators /aggressors that then they too should go to BKK Hilton ? If not,perhaps you should rephrase your comment to appear less partial. How about an alternative along the lines of " Thais who think they can get away with attacking guests because they think they should be immune because it’s in their country " ??
  3. Well done to you. Incidentally,in most countries (that don’t have such appalling road deaths as Thailand )any car that runs into the back of you is defined by default as being to blame . The rationale being 'you should always drive at a distance from the car in front that you should be able to stop in time '. This includes even if the car braked heavily,as well it might in an emergency. More 'Thai logic' if even your insurers initially agreed liability on your behalf? ????‍♂️
  4. Richard explained so comprehensively - yes indeed eviscerating your argument- that you've only been able to repeat your already failed argument and can only respond to mine with the effective ” No,you are" lame playground response. Must try harder,Lou!
  5. I’ve had a jolly good laugh at seeing your facile comment eviscerated by Richard Smith and which saved me the job of compiling a similar reply. " If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck ,it probably is a duck "

  7. Perhaps you should ask yourself where those Pfizer vaccinations came (were donated from) and why the Thai embassy in USA couldn’t be bothered to simply fill in paperwork to accept even further donations! As regards your point,most countries (including UK ) took responsibility for vaccinating ANYONE residing there AND at no charge. The reason for that is because they understood vaccinating everyone they could was for the good of the country. I too got 4 Pfizers,but for the first two had to scratch around multiple sites trying to find them ,eventually having to make 2 round trips of over 600 kilometres each to attend Bumrungad Bangkok. In the UK ,even if Thai, you were treated equally and urged to get your free vaccinations locally. perhaps do a little more research in future to inform those opinions better…
  8. If you can post something coherent illustrating whatever point you're trying to make then I could respond
  9. Ah,so you only agree with those articles which might support your narrative. In any case they’re not opinion piece articles but quoted government sources. Your final sentence is incoherent.
  10. 3 weeks….? in terms of Thai planning this represents long term thinking beyond the realms of practical understanding! ????‍♂️
  11. Quite so on refusing a test,but also if there’s a delay in providing a test they can do a back calculation indicating what the alcohol level was at the time
  12. The general principle is that insurers do pay up for third party damage/injuries no matter what the state of their insured driver,but may well exclude paying for their insured’s damage.
  13. We call it the "thick Gene " … ????‍♂️
  14. Also unlike her in that she had an astute and functional brain and had to win 3 elections in a proper democracy.
  15. Anyone living here quickly learns the language of ‘stupidity'. They’re immersed in it daily ! ????
  16. Ah,like the CCP Chinese strategy that you’ll also be praising! How has that worked out…?
  17. Hanlon’s razor and the Dunning Kruger effect explains all you reference.
  18. Perhaps you are lacking in the observational skills of the rest of us living here…?
  19. I would be very surprised if that cover didn’t also come with conditions relating to motorcycle cover as with other insurers. Mainly,you must have a licence from your own country to drive a motorcycle and you must be wearing a helmet and are not intoxicated.
  20. That many? I’ve told you a million times before not to exaggerate!
  21. I'm sure when posting that made sense to you,but for the rest of us....????
  22. I saw a BBC news item featuring a USA professor who indeed did say the current boosters are efficacious re the new variant,so yes,do get one. I stumbled across a walk in clinic set up in my local Lotus offering Pfizer last week. No queue and had me processed in 5 minutes.????
  23. How did westerners stop that? In most,dangerous dogs attacking people are euthanised immediately. It's Thai culture behind allowing strays and diseased dogs free rein.
  24. At this point in the conversation I’m throwing in the towel.. ????
