Like Trump the Chinese want to get back to business as fast as possible. I strongly suggest that there will be a second wave of corona virus if they do it too soon.

I do wear a mask when I will come into contact with others. This is despite the fact that they are useless against the virus. If the Thais want me to wear a face mask 24 hours a day then, NO!

The Trump administration has failed the American public from the beginning of the Covid-19 crisis. He is betting that the $1200 checks will buy enough votes to get him re-elected. I am still shocked that any American could believe anything he says.

American corporations are just saying that because they hate Trump! They'd rather go broke than say a good word about POTUS. Haters gonna hate!!!
HUH? Trump has always taken good care of the corporate world. He gave them a huge tax break so they could buy back their stock instead of creating new markets and jobs!
If he loses his corporate backers he will be toast in the upcoming election.

Please, these are Republicans. We have no right to question their financial dealings while they are in office. They will also pass legislation for workers that will send cash payments. But only for workers and their bosses and their corporate owners. Hmmm, maybe not the workers!

I suspect that they are telling whoppers! China is very sensitive about allowing secrets out of their control. There are probably thousands every week infected.

I recommend a used Nissan March. They are very small yet roomy inside. The ride is fairly rough but the car is a real workhorse and easily accommodates 4 people.

I suspect that a temperature will require a roadside test for Covid-19 for a cash fee!

Please tell me what the symptoms of panic look like. I imagine a bunch of Thais jumping me and beating me up for not wearing a mask. That is not panic it is a crime. If people just use common sense everyone will make it through the crisis.
The bottom line is that we are all going to eventually be exposed to this virus and there is no escape from this. Perhap some people in Antartica can avoid it but eventually we will all have to deal with the virus. Hiding and wearing masks really won't protect us.
Given that the virus stays with patients after they are "cured" means that like polio there will be no escape. So we all need to chill.

What kind of "close contact" would that be? The government has already said that there is no prostitution in Pattaya!????

Wealthier retirees? Anyone that is wealthy can find far better retirement options than Thailand! The middle class western retirees are taking it on the chin.
The big complaint as of late is that the beer bars full of pretties are suffering. I have lived in Thailand for over 6 years without ever once going to a beer bar. I spend most of my retirement funds on food rent and living expenses. While I do not help out the bars, my income helps the Thai economy.
In return, I get constant hassles from immigration. The changing rules are a constant headache. Thai immigration will not accept my Social Security documents as proof of income but they do take the word of every African and South American embassy.
Small wonder that many of us are researching more stable environments.

Yes, reducing the prices encourages competition. That will also reduce the size of the brown envelopes.
Only high priced tours are allowed in Thailand. After all, they are attracting Indian millionaires so the tour price should not matter.

Yes, the internet is probably the last great frontier for taxation. All of the the sin tax items are already outrageously taxed. Property taxes and income taxes offend the wealthy and sales and VAT taxes are already too high.
The internet will be heavily taxed in our lifetimes!

With all of his medical expertise, I suggest that he get advice from someone other than the village witch doctor. There is no proof whatsoever that hot weather deters the virus. Besides it really can't get much hotter than it already is. Weather related viruses are generally spread by mosquitoes and insects.

I have no problem if Trump has proof! More bulletproof than the "proof" that his lawyers used at his impeachment. Otherwise, I must assume that the BIG LIE is alive and well in the White House!

No wonder Trump fired his intelligence chief and appointed a loyal hack to the job! The truth has no business anywhere in his administration.

Does anyone see the parallel with Japan in the late 30's? When the army rules there is no democracy.

Yawn, just more high crimes and misdemeanors from dictator Trump! I guess Nixon was just a weakling. He too had the opportunity to be a dictator. Oh, wait! No matter how guilty Nixon was he had a respect for the institutions and constitution of the United States. Something that Trump has failed to show.
Vote in 2020 the lives of your children and grandchildren depend on it!

Yep 400,000 baht is a bargain considering all of the income opportunities that accrue to a Thai policeman.

Just more high crimes and misdemeanors for our acquitted president. He now has no bounds to his criminality!

As usual, I think Thais are missing the boat! Cantonese and Madarin are the languages that Thais need to learn. That will prepare them for the annual flood of Chinese tourists and eventually when they become a Chinese province.

Now that Trump knows that there is no act he can commit with impeachment consequences, he is having fun being dictator. The payback against Republicans is going to be huge in the 2020 elections. The senate Republicans seem to be happy to act as the band playing as the Titanic sank!
