Must Read WHO declares end to COVID global health emergency
Jumbo1968 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In my sons school prior to the holidays everyone wore masks, it not stop infections, my son 7 years old was still of school a couple of times with fever, not Covid. He returns a week on Monday to school, apparently the kids are going to have to wear masks in class again. No idea why, he hasn’t worn one in months, we have had a couple vacations including flights where none of us wore masks and came back perfectly healthy. -
Are any clamp downs ever enforced in Thailand ?

Lotteries should be banned, I remember when they introduced the National Lottery in the U.K. all the money was going to go to good causes. Turns out you had a 14 million to one chance to win the jackpot. in general it’s the lower wage earners who buy lottery tickets thinking they can get out of the rat race, where does the lottery money go in Thailand and does it fund anything ? in one country I worked the jackpot was a rollover several times and the government were concerned people were going with out food to buy lottery tickets !

Days of selling by walking about could be numbered, Online sales were introduced to reduce price gouging by retailers, who added 25% surcharges on the 80 baht ticket price. Lottery draws are held twice a month: on the 16th and at the end of the month. Lottery players can pick their favourite numbers on the Paotang app and never have to pay more than 80 baht per ticket. https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/general/40023791#

So why does it say 80 baht on the ticket ?
-
When I occasionally buy one I always ask my wife why 100 baht she says tip !
-
Would I be right in saying it’s only foreigners who get charged 100 baht and Thais pay 80 baht ? I paid 100 baht for one, the vendor offered 2 for 220 baht no idea how that works out ?

The government don’t have any common sense, lack of education, scary tbh.

There is no cover charge for bars with bands, so why is beer so expensive in gogo bars ? I certainly wouldn’t be taking a girl a p********* from a go go bar let alone a bar who has probably been sleeping about with every man and his dog. Yes more attractive than the ones at home, what self respecting woman half your age would allow a man to have sex with them.
