Computer desk with sliding keyboard shelf - where to buy in Pattaya?
ExpatDraco replied to simon43's topic in Pattaya
Bought my home office setup at Index and pretty happy with it. Has sliding keyboard shelf and they have a lot of options with different desk sizes etc. ???? -
Best beach imo: Tien beach, 2nd place Monkey beach when it's high tide. But you can explore the whole of Koh Larn in 1 day with a motorbike if you wanted. It's a small island and easy to get around on a scooter. Also it's very quiet now because of no Chinese so even the main beach looks ok. ???? Accomodations, I have no idea, I only go for daytrips. ???? And yes, Use Bolt if you can. Easy and cheap for transportation. Have fun!

Government Plans to Lower COVID Alert Levels
ExpatDraco replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Cases are not an important number anymore with Omicron. Who cares if there are millions of cases when almost nobody needs hospitals/ICU's. Most people survive the flu or the common cold also. Better to get Omicron and get a free natural booster for your immune system! -
Visa Agents? Yay or Nay?

What do you think '>7 days' mean? <removed> -
Visa Agents? Yay or Nay?
ExpatDraco replied to Edward Abbott's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Was a few days late with 90-day reporting (> 7days). Normally fine is 2000THB. Agent fixed it for 300THB. Agents? Definitely yay. -
Issue is that there are rumors immigration will not give you an extension if you have paid for a 'dodgy' volunteer visa/extension in your passport. At the moment those 'dodgy' visa's/extensions are not available anymore since the recent change of some head immigration officer in Isaan. What I also heard is that you need a passport change before you can get a new visa/extensions. But as said, this is only from hear saying. To the OP: talk to a good agent if you encounter any troubles or if you are not sure how to proceed and post the outcome. ????

Funny thing: I got some cold symptoms, next day I tested negative. After 3 days my symptoms were gone and I did another test: positive. And yes, I wear a mask, not by choice ofc. Stayed at home until negative. But tbh, looking at Omikron stats, better get it over with fast now it's mild and you get a free immunity boost! Party on! Those who are brainwashed with fear by the media should stay home and lock themselves up. Imo, it passed Pattaya already. And yes, my life and freedom are more important than some old people dying from a disease or old age. People die everyday. Seems like many people have forgotten that.

Protect others from something I don't have anymore? Chances getting it again are pretty slim maybe even zero. Imo probably everyone in Pattaya had it or was in contact with it. For some others flu is deadly or the common cold or traffic or hearth problems or high blood pressure or gazillion other things people die from. Heck, people die even from old age! Time to get things back in perspective.

You mean some people died *with* a cold virus? People die from cancer, obesitas, traffic, smoking, hunger, hearth disease, ... why are those so called Covid deaths more important than other deaths? Even if those 5500000 were real Covid deaths out of a global population of 8000000000 that's peanuts and not worth blowing up the world economy. But hey, I understand, the media got you.

Omicron set to delay reopening of bars and pubs
ExpatDraco replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Got some cold like symptoms starting on an afternoon last week. Took some vitamins etc and went to bed early. Next morning, symptoms already went down. Went to the pharmacy to get a test. Test was negative. Ordered some more tests from Lazada. 4 days later with 0 symptoms I thought let's do another test. Guess what? Positive. Retested myself to be sure. If I didn't had retested myself I would never have known I even had Covid. I have had far worse colds from air conditioners than this. Time for Omicron to run thrive and provide everyone with a free natural booster. -
Those time schedules mean nothing. They leave when full, just like the old days. Just be sure to catch the last one back to Pattaya. ????

Leading Thai doctor says the Covid stats can't be trusted
ExpatDraco replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
After 1.5 years people still believe that lockdowns, even hard ones, can stop this virus? Protect the weak and elder and let the rest get on with living. -

You still believe all that media <deleted>? I guess you think half of India died also and that Italy and Brasil have no population anymore?
