At first I thought it was to be a 30 day exempt and allowed 2 x30 day extensions..... more recent reading it looks to be a 90 day permission on a Visa Exempt entry. Not sure if extensions on top to be permitted. It could be excused as a 'reciprocal' agreement as I believe Thais get 90 day visa free entry to Russia. Anyhow, I thought there were complaints coming out of Phuket that it was already overcrowded and the mix was too heavily Russian, becoming dominant and deterring other nationalities.  

Yes I would not want to spend my hard earned holiday cash surrounded by Russians

However, the number of Israeli tourists has decreased by about 40 percent after the war broke out with Hamas.” Thanet explained

Thanks for the explanation Mr Thanet, but I would think most people worked that one out. Lol

The current Thai Government would  do a deal with Satan if they could  make money from it.

90 days, 

I thought it was money 60 days more money have another 30 days, then go home.

The Gaza Strip borders Israel and Egypt. Egypt maintains a similar regime of restrictions.

So true Egypt closed the boarder at Rafa some years ago, and does not want Hama's spilling into their country.

I perceive their actions to be nationalistic, especially to the exclusion and detriment of other nations.

Think you will find El Al aircraft's will be or are fitted with anti rocket protection e.g. chaff etc, also  fighter escorts not far away.

What about the 1000s of Thais desperate to leave Israel? Israeli thinking about themselves first, I guess ???? Nothing better than war to drive tourism. TAT probably thinking about visa free entry for Hamas and Palestinians. Thailand is turning into a refugee camp between the Russians, Ukrainian and Israeli... none of this is going to end well. 

Yep Retirees go home nah

Wow this is really an interesting news scoop....

Same old chestnut 

Same reply, stop duel pricing and cut import taxes on luxury items would help.

Oh, Bangkok is a dangerous place to live.

 

I used to live in Bangkok for 2 years way back in 2008-2009.

 

Then I relocated to Isaan province. The people over here are more open and more sincere.

 

Now I prefer a quiet life with my wife and children in the province.

 

The hustle and bustle of Bangkok is not what I want now.

Very interesting, but what has it to do with a sad occurrence in Bangkok.

A strange hobby, more interesting than train spotting I guess.

Gen. Surachet was also expected to meet with three Taiwanese police officers as part of international collaboration efforts, amplifying the enhanced image of Thai police on the world stage.

Dream on, known the world over as one of the most corrupt police forces.

First question to driver, use meter

Answer No.

Get out, leave door open.
