The easy answer to this is to forget Thailand either stay home or book somewhere else, save the headaches

i will go to spain...no quaranine, no covid test required....and not so much covid anyway !!

just hope on the plane and come (from low risk countries incl. all europe)....

thailand allways try to play like a world leading country, better than spain and u.k. and u.s. (where no CEO nonsense is needed) and that is allways funny

Do they dare to put counter of how many tourists entered Phuket from international flights on 1 July in such a public place? That would be stuck on 00 00 00 00 for a while...

i would definately come on 1 july if i only knew how

I would like to know just how the 1st of July arrivals  have booked anything and maybe why 700 must have cancelled or lost their money from the thousand arriving TAT quoted two days ago ????

the airlines do sell tickets for direct flights to phuket. fortunately, there is plenty of seats.

but who in his sane mind will book a ticket when the COE cannot even being prepared?

6,000 foreigners arrive on Phuket Island July 1st, 7,000 are sent home on the 2nd minus large sums of money for not having the correct "Sandbox" paperwork, etc.

this is exactly my fear.

or worse : being sent to some hospital jail quarantine because of blah blah blah.

how stupid can they be?

you cannot say you will open phuket on 1 july, and in the same time do nothing

about it !!!

Afaik it's not published in the Royal Gazette yet, thus the embassy has to wait for this before they can do anything related to the Phuket opening.

i also cannot do anything before the embassy issue COE so i told them just that...how

can i prepare for the GRAND OPENING if it is just 6 days away ???

In the U.S. it is the china virus. in thailand it is the farang virus...

I GOT THIS EMAIL TODAY FROM thai embassy in my country:

The Embassy has not as yet received any official notification from Bangkok regarding Phuket despite what has been reported in the media, and so the Embassy is unable to advise you regarding Phuket, but hopefully the Embassy will soon receive the requisite information.

As soon as the Embassy is informed of the conditions of entry to Phuket, they will be published on the Embassy’s official Facebook page and on the Embassy’s official website . Thank you.

Even if you mean room in a house or condo or apartment, how did the kamoy know she had withdrawn such a large amount?

as i mentioned, it was propably someone from the bank, customer or cashier, who

saw her withdrawing large amount than called the partners who followed her to

the hotel.

it is called follow up robbery. common in latine america where the robbers can

follow the victim until his house to robe him .

she did not mean to leave the cash there for long time, just for a night. it had

to be used to buy a restaurant/

That's a terrible idea as bitcoin is more expensive in Thailand than in Spain plus bitcoin might have crashed by 20% by the time he comes to sell it. Just today it lost 9%!

why would he mess with bitcoin and cash if he is not a criminal ?

important to understand, that these days you want to have your money in the bank.

governments hate cash.

they see cash and bitcoin as suspicious.

so if you have nothing to hide. better use banks. TT . ATM. this way there

is track .

Well, that was the story she told anyway. Who knows if it really happened. My vote would be that she, or her partner in crime, stole it. 

why would she lie to me? i was not part of the deal.

interesting to mention, that after she told me the story, i gave her 3000 baht.

also to make her happy, also becuse she was my friend (not for sex).

than what happaned? she disapeared. never answered my calls  again.

go figure.

today i emailed thailand embassy in my country and this is their reply:

He laughs about it today. 

is it not a laughing mattar as many people lost their lives while carrying cash.

i know a story of a young woman who got her german boyfriend to buy her a restaurant.

she went to koh samui and withdrew the money from the bank, 800K THB.

than she came back to the room and hid the money very well in her room.

she left the room for lunch and when she came back the money was gone.

someone followed her from the bank , waited for her to leave the room, than got in

and stole the money.

BBL account is set up for international transfers and, if he doesn't have a work permit, it probably won't be.

you can transfer from bangkok bank to your personal account, but need to be in the bank personally for that

For a QR code payment to DeeMoney from Bangkok Bank, using their Bualuang app, there's no SMS being sent. So that would be an option, but in general it's a good idea to ensure that roaming works.

there is allways SMS involved. to register for the service you must get SMS

maybe you should start by googling DUTCH MAN GET 100 YEARS JAIL TIME IN THAILAND and

than think again if you want to invest large amounts in thailand.

seriously.

why would you consider coming from organised and clean europe to invest

in third world thailand?

buying real esate abroad is allready hard enough, so it is even harder in a poor

country where english is not well spoken and the...well, just hink it over mate.
