  1. My Thai bank has never charged for an ATM withdrawl.
  2. Never happen. The webpage for claiming missing miles doesn't work, one of the 2 email addresses they list for contact doesn't work while the other sends you an automated reply with a link to click on.....the link doesn't work. The airline still refuses to pay refunds from more than 2 years ago. Oh and a recent search on fares from BKK to AKL revealed Thai were 2.5 times more expensive than Singapore Air, AirNZ or Cathay.
  3. Cue expensive TAT campaign aimed at cat owners who want to share covid with their loved one.
  4. Using “as the kingdom battles covid 19 pandemic” as an excuse is laughable. Every nation faced the same challenge. Thailand just failed better than the others, hence the fall. Look to the govt for fault.
  5. I don't do the 800k but opt for the 400k instead. Suits me perfectly.
  6. You left out the bit about none of them getting filthy rich without the consent of Putin.
  7. Not just the programs fault. No country anywhere around the globe is back to normal tourist numbers. And re your photos of decay and neglect, I wager such scenes exist in any city anywhere. Maybe try to accentuate the positive next time? Swampy was packed with hundreds of tourist arrivals on saturday which bodes well for the future.
  8. This was a waste of money in the first place, plus an additional waste of money to change it back into office space. What a bunch of muppets.
  9. Confirmation that the WHO is not qualified for its job responsibility.
  10. the Thai Pass isn't stopping anyone who wants to come IMO. All the tourists I've met lately have said it was easy peasy. I would suggest that tourist numbers haven't recovered because no country in the world is anywhere near back to pre-covid arrival levels.
  11. Never had any issues navigating around the rules and regulations. Mind you, I've always used an agent to smooth the way ahead.
  12. I'm sure your 10 yo nephew is brighter than you but let me make it as simple as possible so perhaps, just maybe, a light will go on in your brain. The Moto 2 category has world class riders some of whom have raced in over 50 races and never stood on the podium. For the Thai rider to achieve the success he has to date, he well warrants being classed as a hero for Thai people. Thailand is not regarded as a well of great racing drivers or bike riders. This is very big stuff for the kingdom. Your belittling of his status shows either a complete lack of respect and/or complete ignorance of what he has achieved.
  13. Hop on a bike and show us what you can do Jonny.
  14. They sponsor the rider. All the racing bikes in his category (Moto 2) use Triumph engines.
  15. USA national heroes are usually as dumb as the rest of Americans so not really a good example.
  16. That 'low bar' you mention is a class of riders who rate as the best upcomers in the world, competing in one of the most closely fought categories of motor racing globally. Show a little respect.
  17. Yeah, that loon Adern caused record low unemployment and the best GDP in over 20 years. What an idiot she is.
  18. Anyone living in America usually has no clue about the rest of the world.
