The governor of Chonburi province oversees Pattaya and their beaches are closed. Hua Hin is Open. Surfs Up !

Thatta boy !

They're the only department that is set up for direct deposit..

Appears to be Alphabetical based on your mother's cousins sisters maiden name ...

People just don't seem to accept the fact that It's all about government control. No one gives a rats <deleted> about distancing etc. I'm sure they never could have imagined how easy it would be to incarcerate the entire country. Booze is as easy to get as a pizza but that's not the point it's government control and oversight hic..

Yeah there I was...well how bout now ? 

You can get anywhere if you're discreet and bring a black bag after dark..not 7 Eleven . Too many spies 

Nope it's based on my social security status .

Alot of idle chat folks. No one knows what formula they're using. I just received mine and didn't expect it. I'm retired living here on Social Security and a generous company pension. Mine will be used to help local families in need. Give it to the states? Hell no !

Will be cut in pieces and sold to the only bidders ..Chinese casinos and sweat shops. No they won't learn from this they're not capable of critical thinking, community planning or zoning etc..The dozers and wrecking crews are lining up.

It's all about control. This regime is paranoid about Social unrest hence the Alchohol ban combined with the Curfew. They're throwing a few tidbits out to appease the populace. Farmers markets , noodle shops never did close. Hair salons pet shop boys Really ? This sitcom is getting stale..

They are total Lunatics ...they still haven't repatriated hundreds of Thai citizens yet extending the flight bans. Now China has announced deeply discounted flights on all of their international carriers...So just where do ya think these people are going to be "lured" from ? 

You're quite right it's a huge burden without it ( to your survivors) ...

Not wearing a helmet once you leave your driveway is essentially suicidal here and another important reason is eye protection. There is so much flotsam and debris being thrown up and the Thai riders without helmets or eye protection simply can't see ahead clearly. If you are unfortune and crash then first thing that happens is you instinctively put your hands out then the sudden deceleration snaps your head down and it Will hit the ground. I won't go 1 km to 7 Eleven without a helmet ....but I know " won't happen to me right" ..

It's misquoted about restaurants,  the Bangkok post is reporting that the tables have to be 1.5 meters apart. 

The only emergency would be flying on Banzai Airlines ( lion air)..

Has Thailand ever been successful at anything scientific or technical besides Som Tum ? Any great feats of Engineering or Literary greats ? Pretty good at shooting rubber bullets and needless checkpoints .

Laying on the bottom in a submarine trying to descend to periscope depth...

Beg to differ locking in will benefit the weak or infirmed ( isolating ) Keep Aunt Tilda in the back bedroom and don't bother grandpa (that's me) he's upstairs in his room shouting at the TV. Just slide my metal dinner tray through the slot. You young folk git on out and get to work...bring me a bottle of Jack on the way back ! Stop being such pussies ..

Numbers will never come down , it's not mathematically possibe more cases equals more testing equals more cases. Quarantined in the same dorm I'm sure. Nightime curfews ? Hmmm 

Time to get on with it, but they (the government) will languish in their own muck and keep extending and extending trying to reach Zero which will never happen...what does it matter where they came from they're here and part of body count...Send em back maybe then deduct or maybe just handicap. Good bet at the sports book in Vegas ...55

Excellent read and so true , why are the so called leaders (they're not leading they're dictating)  and experts so easily misled and afraid to stand clear and get on with it. Afraid of being critisized or losing face , huge egos or what ? People that are afraid to go out are welcome to stay home, hope they do. 

New normal ? Straight from high command ? Show me your papers ....If they keep repeating that phrase over and over people will believe it.

It's anything but normal, beware of the "experts,  especially Gates" Experts that have no experience are called (  know it alls) our freedoms have already been greatly compromised even as expat "visitors" that bring alot of money into this dictatorship and ask for nothing in return other that consideration and respect..

Well I've always enjoyed stirring things up a bit. Like screaming "let me outta here they're coming for me" in the lift !
