On a side note... they stated today that they would designate areas where people would be allowed to consume for recreational purposes... Doesn't that imply that they will no longer be doing <deleted> tests for detecting drugs?

And the Gvt is going to change their divulgation of daily statistics... me wonders why ???? Might it have to do with an expected increase of cases due to variants? ...or maybe because they need a foreign influx of cash... but then again ... dudn't the powers that be say that tourist money was but a drop in the bucket of this great economy?

Only reason they are doing this is to keep the populace ignorant. I rather know what is really going on than be oblivious. Any here who said great news will be reborn as an ostrich in their next life. Ignoring the facts does not make them go away. In this case it is an attempt by the ruling power to gloss over any trace that they are messing things up.

Co-payment scheme... money printing at its best. Taxes? Highway robbery at its best.

Well... I stopped smoking it many years ago but I still fail to see why it is seen so negatively. All plants were put here on Earth for our use. With the antiquated mentality of many conservatives here many people still have to go around hiding to smoke it. Poppies make opium and without it many people would suffer useless pain. Legalize the plant and stop making it a crime to smoke or possess. And for those who condemn it because they were too sheepish to try it when they were young... get a life!

I don't see how "dies on Xmas morning" is relevant here in th OP... Xmas means nothing to most Thais who are Buddhists... sadly this is just a click bait title to get foreigners to give their "I didn't know her but may she rest in peace" comments. May she rest in peace

I can't believe people succumb to influencers and actually listen to what they say... Gullibility is an inherent trait that should be deleted from the DNA genome...

Should read: The future PM and Golden Boy admitted that there would be some Omicron cases that would "sneak in" among the 200,000 dirty foreign tourists on the Test and Go program. This rewrite might actually match his ego and tell the truth about how he feels about us.

No siht... is he still on the sinocrap bandwagon or is he talking about the real vaccines he used to scoff at?

After having watched "The Hot Zone" it became very clear to me that after the Anthrax scare and the Ebola scare in the US that even they are not ready for a pandemic... Proof is in the pudding

Jesus! The equivalent of about 3000$ US I feel the Thai government is getting overly generous.

Gaol? Really... that word hasn't been used in the west for over a century. Just love language romantics trying to show off their vocab... and it ain't grammar policing... you mean spelling...

I did... and immi not happy he imported money 2 separate times in a month... and wife got letter from immi... etc etc etc

For convenience and peace of mind. Had he had the money in the bank he would not be posting here.

Get 400 000 in the bank. Problem solved.

Have the HiSo's and gvt leaders been jailed yet?

Don't need to book.

Rayong immi. not implementing it...

gonna party like it's 1999... and then book into a hospital ????

For all those travelers sat next to an infected fellow traveler ... as Gomer Pyle used to say, "Surprise, surprise, surprise!"

God forbid

Just ask the TAT what to do. They surely have a solution! Who you gonna call? TAT

I cough all the time... everywhere... it's called ex-smoker syndrome... People are so paranoid they think anyone who coughs is infected.

Exactly! They are just setting themselves up for jeers and embarrassment aren't they? I would choose my words more carefully.

Whatever that means....
