Makes perfect sense. But yes with regards to tourism we are back to the fifties.

2 weeks in Bournemouth it is then.

Somchai, Clever...

Fewer tourists entered Thailand in the last six months than would normally enter in a single day

Thought it was a bit quiet.

Totally agree.
The whole resort is crying out for some big casinos and once they arrice, the tax revenues alone (if they ever reach the right place that is) would constitute a complete change of a VERY tired face.
Sex, gambling & drinking - the perfect trifecta for Pattaya!

Tax revenues will go straight to the so called Elite and Military, and that's bloody obvious to most. 

Hai Pier, Khao Thap Phraya, Pattaya Beach Walk and Jomtien Beach have all been earmarked for redevelopment, 

Oh Goody, more ugly eyesaws (Condos) on Jomtien Beach then.....

Except for a little place called Bangkok where 12 million people live!

No worries.

Quite a few from Bangkok on Jomtien Beach last and will be next weekend, good news not one has Covid....

Poor Darlings, no more 2 week millionaires'(Mugs) for them to ask for 5000 baht ST, loving it, Thai Friendly, is a down to earth crash for them.

No one dies on the roads, gets beaten up, gets pregnant, wakes up with a ladyboy or falls asleep behind a dumpster from drinking beer either...

 

...but it sure contributes.

Sorry to hear that, but if I was you I would refrain from alcohol... 

I give Bangkok governors one week to open, as the roads will be packed on route to Pattaya next weekend, mass movement of booze seekers,  is that a good idea? and I wanted a weekend in Bangers...seeking booze. Mai pen rai.

Live music can be played but dancing is not permitted.

 

So, I can go to get drunk, kiss loads of ladies and all is OK. But if i dance I am at risk of getting Covid yes? 

 

Is no one seeing through this nonsense yet?

I think that is crazy as well, what actually do they class as Dancing, just moving your hips from side to side or a full blown Tango lol

The 2 owners were fined 10,000 baht each but collected 100 baht from 200 partygoers, They came out much better off than the punters !  20,000 baht on entry fees alone plus drink sales!

 

 

 

 

 

Just what I was thinking, think this goes a bit deeper, so the BIB took the entrance fees, and they kept the profits.....no jail.

I have a good laugh anytime I see the TAT, or anyone else, talking about "vaccine passports". How would this ever be made to work ?  Everyone and his dog would be creating and printing their own "vaccine passport" on their home computer. Immigration officials would have no way of knowing if it was authentic.

Would have to be on a International Database, so can't see it working.

more thailand policy stupidity on blatant display; restaurants are not the same as bars; restaurant goers stay for 20 minutes to an hour; bar goers stay all night ; more single digit IQ policymakers

I drink and eat in a Bar/Restaurant, how long can I stay sir.

It is quite possible that Chinese investors will buy a lot of bankrupt businesses on WS. Everything could then go very quickly.
Let's not forget that covid has had almost no economic impact on China.

Not yet  don't think the world will forget.

I've got a few friends now in self isolation for not abiding by the restrictions.  Attending large, indoor birthday parties.  A CV19 carrier was present at both and now many are in self quarantine and being checked on a regular basis by the health care volunteers.  One is over 80 and really scared now.

Serve them right then, should be lucky if they are Farang not to have their visas cancelled.

Would not want anything injected into me that was Made in China, most likely on par with most of the second rate stuff they mass produce.

A referendum sounds a good idea, but what if the government and elites don't get the result they want lol    

Did I not read on this forum a few months ago that Thailand was leading the way to develop a vaccine....????
