No not American. You are saying they are not. The hole culture is based and how you are viewed to the world not who you actually are. I agree western culture especially the younger generation are the same

Retirement watch as a presentation by any chance?

Cash cow for the Embassy's charging for 60 days visas. I bet even that's dried up now the rules are more stringent than they were before. I used to get a 6 month one no hassle. Now you have to provide bank information and all sorts of stuff

Just recovered from an acute respiratory infection. Second time I got it the first being ten years ago. Doctor told me foreigners more likely to get it in Asia as they never been exposed to Asia viruses. It was terrible. If they start ramping up fear mongering nonsense over this cold you know something ain't right.

You won't get them unfortunately. Covid replaced them the last three years. The only stats I can find are from 2018 and stated around 60 thousand die each year from pneumonia related illnesses

CDC advice is if you're already vaccinated or had the previous one you're more likely to get it. How convenient a new booster is approved.

Google is your friend. For the not so bright Americans they called it the Tik Tok act. Of course they have the patriot act that spies on every American citizen

Believe nothing until officially denied in Thailand.

They wouldn't dare close it. Most Thais are addicted to it. They need their narcissistic supply from all those selfies in a flower field. In addition get a VPN for nonsense like this. The US restrict act is far more draconian though. 20 years jail for anyone accessing a banned site doesn't sound very "freedom and democracy" to me.

Personal attacks to someone you don't know doesn't cut it sorry. If you're that blind after the many documented evidence available including children's camps on the border where they are separated from their parents then ignorance isn't an excuse for pure evil. If you're defending peodos in your elites in the US than you may want to look in the mirror before calling someone sexually repressed. The covering up of the murder of Epstein may give you a clue. Case closed

I love rather than admitting you're wrong you turn into a 10 year old.

Handbags at dawn. The girls hunt in packs in the land of smiles

Turn off CNN and all other US propaganda channels

When I go to Penang it's 90 days on arrival no fuss for a UK passport.

Is it "A wave of concern" or is it "outrage". I would say it's neither and probably a click bait headline. It's Pattaya and while I have never been there I would expect nothing less if I went and didn't find such a venue in a place like this. If you want outrage go to a Western pride event where you will find all sorts of deviance done by adults in front of children or the fact the US is largest human trafficking country in the world facilitated by its own government.

Vaccine mandates changed all that. All police, teachers and hospital staff were told to divulge their vaccine history in order to maintain their jobs this last three years.

So he has done it before and is still in the country.

Did they charge extra

His passport was revoked many years ago

Technically he is a medical tourist. I would be at least asking for a discount on a room with no Aircon.

Driving like insane maniacs is OK. Poisoning of dogs not a peep only a wai. But this. Thailand really needs to get a grip.

He is sneaking in to Chang Mai by bus from Laos. He ain't coming. The deal is off

You could just geo block it. Why the theatre. We all know this has nothing to do with scams. Plenty of those on tik tok and other social media sites. Thais are addicted to their social media especially while riding a motorcycle so expect a riot of they were remotely successful.

It's been absent for three years so about time it made a comeback. How strange. I don't believe in coincidences. About time some got there critical thinking hats on. Tin foil ones are so yesterday.

I will believe it when I see it. If it happens then it's all theatre and some deal has already been struck. Why he would trust them is another matter. I believe he will be staying at Room 101 at the Sheraton. I will order the popcorn just in case.
