it is very obvious someone is trying to rip them off - no surprise there 

My gut feeling is that you are correct but  I would be concerned if this is not exposed and investigated . "We're told" ... by whom ? ...need to know this first. If it's the hotel, a travel agent , an airline , You challenge it . 
Has anyone dug deeper on this one  ?

i dont think you are seeing the whole picture

Where does it say NEW WORLD CURRENCY ? Big difference ... the ad suggests that the Yuan can be used or obtained easily anywhere or used  all over the world...same as other big currencies...and is available in Thailand now...nothing sinister there about being the NEWWORLD currency.

If ekamai to pra khanong BTS why not just walk. It's like 5-10 min walk. But depending where in pra khanong impossible could be only 40 baht as the starting price is 35. I could see around 40 baht just from BTS to BTS on sukumvit because of traffic. If it really is BTS to BTS then the real problem is the forienger is too lazy to spend a few mins walking. Unfortunately we don't know where in ekamai picked up and where in pra khanong dropped off at. But 50 baht dose not sound unreasonable for that area for that distance based on traffic. 

Wow ... bet you that investigation would cost more than 10baht ...lol !

Now they are changing Samui to the same module as the Phuket Sandbox from October 1st....

This current administration is infamous for pledges, declarations, proclamations, silly laws, and promises. Few are even remembered, much less followed up upon two weeks later.

Still need to be called out for the stupidity of their absurd laws. Coral is now much more important than protecting humans from Sunstroke  , skin cancer or hospitalisation from being cooked. Of course if people dying or very ill from Covid doesn't bother them why would they care ! Beyond comprehension , as usual.

BIG BOSS

Confirm that these Pfizer vaccines are stored at - 20C.

STORAGE MANAGER. 

Kor toht.... . Leum.... 

How come Anutin is pictured in the Bangkok Post admiring these vaccines in his usual shirt sleeves if it's stored at minus whatever ?... and what's he doing there anyway ... should be hiding in shame having been humiliated by having to accept hand outs because of his failure to procure vaccines ... or more to the point pay for them !

Im saying this is Anutins fault.

He's washed his hands of it since the Prime Minister took over complete control of the virus crisis . He is now in charge and has been for a while so everything is fine ! ..

Isnt it possible otherwise to procure enough decent vaccines for 70 million within a month get them distributed around the country and job done........if it means saving lives and stopping the thousands waiting for hospital care from increasing.

If you pay for them without looking for personal payback for placing the order . That doesn't happen with a corrupt government. The west knows the real story in Thailand . They are not willing to "donate" good vaccines to a country that simply will not buy them straight up. The government of Thailand were prepared to let their people die in the streets before even ordering proper vaccines, and now doing so for delivery next year.
