The BMW  is facing the wrong way..maybe it "jumped" the central reservation ?

Look again !

75% of 1116 farmers in Kalasin ?
Your headlines are getting more and more worse with every article!

Only bars in hotels to open for consuming alcohol ?
Thought this was in Dubai.
Just who will drink there without having tourists ????...

The greedy Thai landlords, still asking for full rent payements, are part of the problem.

 

A lot of the small beer bars are running like a ''family'', the boss and the mamasan are the

parents and the girls are the child, so i am not surprised the ''parents'' take care of their ''child''

but of course they don't have infinite funds, they need to open again soon.

And the children sell expensive ladydrinks and give mamasan some barfine when they go 'take care' a customer...

And Chinese tourists will be one of the first to return to Thailand/

Did Chinese tourists develop the virus ? 
Did Chinese tourists cover up the start of it ?
Wouldn't blame their government and WHO be more fair ?

Isn't this a violation to people's right to privacy? What happens if you refuse to allow them to come inside your home?

 

How do they know when to knock on your door? Some people leave home very early and work all day, only coming home pretty late in the evening.

 

Are they also heading into forests to check the temperatures of forest dwellers?
 

Lots of unanswered questions.

Your temperature seems to be a little too high...

CP's factory doesn't sell enough masks to make profit ?

I can't see the point. Kids will be back at school, no tourists. Who exactly will be celebrating it?

Thais? Tourists don't celebrate, it's the backpacker's "waterwar".

Thais  can't  count, theyre No.1 .Unfortunately they forgot the 60 in front of that, witness any shop and your change calculation. Then they don't trust themselves by counting it often 3 times.

I  like to  play along with the stupidity by counting it  out to them 1 2 3 4 twice then watch as they repeat it,  oh  dear.

I asked a metal shop to make me something the other day, what  followed was painful, gave them the sizes in "mm" they hadn't a clue I had to translate it into CM, just painful.

So why are you living in a country with "stupid people" all around ?

In 10-15 years you cannot label the Chinese as tourists anymore in Thailand. They will be "Pisao and Pichai" - Big Sister and Big Brother.

 

I know the Chinese is a big market, and that 1 in 4 Intl. tourist is from China - and polls will probably say that this will rise over the next years.

But that's not because there will be more Chinese tourists arriving, but the other 3 in 4 tourists (European, US, Australia) will not show up here anymore. Nobody wants to see Maya Bay Madness or Seafood Buffet Slaughter.

 

 

So you think you can only go where Chinese go ?
No other destinations available ?

Seems the last on the list is foreigners with Thai families. Wish they would relax restrictions on that class of people so I can finally leave and get back to work without worrying I won't be able to get back to my kid.

 

Tourists being talked about. Work Visa and Diplomats being talked about. But <deleted> families? Who cares apparently. 

Talking about diplomats shows their level of thinking...

Your headlines are getting more and more stupid day by day !

To top it off, the employee isn't even wearing that face shield properly.  I've noticed that more than a couple of times in my visits to the stores that are open.  

Do you see that she wears a face shield + a mask ?
Most important here seems to be complaining about anybody and anything.

Thailand is already well-known for its hospitality, warmth, and friendliness

 

That is true to a certain extent, however in this day and age Thailand is also known for corruption, scams, pollution, xenophobia, dual pricing, high prices for sub - standard services, shocking health and safety standards, bizarre government rules that change at any time etc.

 

His aims are good, but something like this is just not going to happen. 

Then jump on the first flight you can get!

And they are going to lift the ban on inter province travel when ?

 

If foreign tourists check the amount of testing done in this country (only 4,098 per million) they may very well have second thoughts about coming here .

Between which provinces in the North for example ?

International flights will be allowed June 1 st ? With what requirements ? A  letter from doctors within 72 hours you don,t have the virus ? Where in Seattle for example am i to find this test ? Asking for things that are NOT possible to get in any countries. Expect foreigners to come back? Better have the tests ready on arrival at the airport in Bangkok. No one is going to bother with all the visa etc etc hassles.

"International flights are still not allowed until June 1". For further information ask a wisdom teller...

Well they are wearing gloves and pharmacist coats, with face shields as well, so who knows what they are doing.  I do know that their is a sort of spray station you walk through before you get a squirt of sanitizer on your hands and you enter the store.  OTT maybe just a little, but it sure made me feel that they not only had there safety in mind but yours as well...

Looks more like a big show for me same as at makro.
Choose a trolley > push it to a guy who sprays alcohol on the hand rail and cleanes hundreds of rails with the same cloth > after you touch the rail again with your hands.
But did you clean your hands ?
