I think you are 100% right with this.

 

But I like to add that very likely there is much more to it. They cannot be so stupid to believe that this scheme will work, they cannot be so stupid to believe that it will help the economy in any way, except maybe some rich friends among the elite who own some of the quarantine hotels.

 

I am sure that they create this scheme WILLFULLY TO BE IMPRACICABLE! The real point is, I assume, that they DO NOT WANT TOURISTS ANYMORE for now.

 

Keep in mind the close relations between the Thai junta government and China. Keep in mind the watches of the little general. For me, it seems obvious that this scheme is made only to appease the populace for a while and to show the Thai tourism industry that they are doing something to help, while in reality their plan is to ruin the industry willfully, to make it a cheap bargain for Chinese investors, plus a few rich Thai investors of their clique. A win-win-win situation for the junta, some others in the elite, and especially the Chinese. That's one reason also why the create all this panic and paranoia regarding Covid.

 

After the outbreak of the pandemic, China quickly realised the opportunities resulting from it. So, they had a talk with their Thai junta friends then, and this is the result now.

 

Your post, NanLeow, fits well into this plan. 

 

I assume some more luxury watches are on the way to Thailand right now.

 

 

 

The collapse of the economy is a global plan, a reset of the entire economy of the planet is being prepared This is the plan of the elites who rule the world the covid is just an excuse 

And what about for those who holds the visa already? This is my case I'm still stuck in UK I'm hold a non immigrant non-0 with a reentry permit valid until 25 March 2021. 

I also have an apartment where I can carry out my quarantine

Explain please  

It's ok for me the important thing is that I can return. Although I am not a tourist but a non immigrant visa holder with a reentry permit 

BREAKING NEWS in uppercase, in case you don't notice, you never know. Just for a Thai returnee from abroad. It would be better if you didn't join the media terrorism that is spreading around the world

See you in 2029 ????

2029...... that's Interesting. Why precisely 2029? Is there a special reason? Instead I say 2052 or the doomsday Bets are open

Come on let's not go overboard

Everyone would prefer not to have foreigners at home, especially a nationalist people like Thais, and this regardless of the virus. Therefore the purpose of these surveys is not clear, apparently they have nothing better to do. However, compared to the previous poll, it appears that opponents to the arrival of foreigners have decreased which means that someone is beginning to understand. So let's take it as good news

Thailand can't survive only by elite tourism I know that many would like it especially to those that had responded to the survey. But those geniuses should understand that if the audience of the unemployed increases, they too will be negatively involved even if their business has nothing to do with the tourism industry.

I suggest you take a statistics course and then you might understand how surveys work.

No my dear it's not only of statistics matter, it also depends on the type of sample examined. Which means that if the most of the respondents are not linked to the tourism industry in any way, the result can only be this.

I have read many that speak of racism, discrimination and other absurdities by the Thai authorities

But what the others are doing? The entire SE asian are still closing to tourists therefore to foreigners So what are we talking about?

If the Thailand would be the only one doing such policy  then you would be right but is not like that.

So let's calm down.

Becoming clear? How did you get it?

that some sectors now beleive they do not need us or our money. 

Tell it those who have lost their jobs as hotel staff, restaurants, retailers as well as anyone else related to the tourism and entertainment industry

My girlfriend working in a supermarket, her weekly working hours have been reduced by 50%. Therefore according to his testimony the situation is not good at all

Thailand has already a list with countries of low risk.

China with Hong Kong and Macau
South Korea

maybe they will add

Taiwan
Australia
New Zealand
Vietnam

Europe and USA for sure not, they are still high risk areas and this probably will not change until we have a vaccine

Vaccine will never come out,  put it in your mind

As I have said on other threads. As far as the UK is concerned until the UK foreign office changes its advice not to undertake foreign travel, there is no new UK insurance you can take out to meet requirements anyway.

Then wait and hope. Better you try to get it in another country.

Una seconda ondata di influenza sta spuntando qua e là in Cina. Se questi "turisti" devono auto-mettere in quarantena per 14 giorni all'arrivo, dubito che otterranno i numeri desiderati. La seconda ondata finirà per insinuarsi nel nostro vocabolario.

This guy is already certain that there will be the so-called new wave. According to many virologists, the virus has weakened or is even dying. Nothing lasts forever

Relax. Thailand will implement rules consistent with the rest of the world: They will facilitate trade and travel entry with its key partner markets. It isn't easy. Have a look at  what the UK is going through now as it tries to implement international travel rules. The Canada- USA border is still closed for non essential  travel. Thailand is in the same position and what it does will not be any worse than what westerners will experience in their own countries.

Maybe. But I'm still remind the covid19 certificate and health insurance. Anyway I'm not concern about the quarantine even if this would mean the death for tourism for the reasons we can easily imagine.

Then if they also put on the mandatory mask it will be the end. First because it's pointless to stop the virus, secondly, it is harmful to health because it reduces the supply of oxygen to the brain.

Moreover how can you think of walking outdoors with that thing on your face at 34/35 degrees centigrade?

My first concern is the after  I mean when the incoming flight ban will ends. What they will ask to us, which requirements will we must to comply in order to be admitted in the country again? I'm not married with a thai (at least not yet) but I have a thai girlfriend I'm holding a long term visa with the reentry permit and I'm worried about what they could invent for the future. They are capable of anything

 It's also my opinion that any foreigner will still be required to have a COVID test (within 72hrs) and US$100K health insurance.. 

 

 

I'd say it's a great way to permanently kill the tourism in the country since these requirements are almost impossible to get

New normal???? This is what the NWO wants to impose on us under the pretext of the covid <deleted> the NWO and <deleted> the new normality

I'm reading some of  your comments and am amazed. A mass of cowards and doers of misfortune, You are already dead not physically but you are died of fear. This virus is a fake they took your <deleted>  I'm instead totally agreed with the AOT because it is right to be optimistic then look to the future with optimism. But you are pragmatic you have already foreseen everything isn't it?

I'll be back to LOS early of next year after which I will take a holiday period in Europe with my girlfriend I don't care if the flight will cost little bit more ,as for you, do as you wish
