    just gotta admire (not) the jealousy that pops out from locals and local foreigners when Americans get what should be provided by their country even when the US is DONATING proven vaccines for anyone and at the same time is providing access to other proven vaccines for this country's use as well as for other countries.  I have seen it for many years in many different countries where those that do not nor can not live full time in the US try to belittle the very things that they wish they could have.  I definitely am not saying that the US is best of everything but for freedom of thought, expression, benefits for its citizens that are usually earned, and only because so many liberals today want to change the govt to be more like other countries (i.e. socialist countries that have universal health care which is driving those countries to bankruptcy, free college, etc) we are a capitalist republic which means everyone has the opportunity to excel in life but it usually must be earned.  I will not apologize for being born an American, I am proud of that fact.  While we are at it, the4 US also just recently DONATED $30 million USD to the Thai govt to help them fight the virus.  So, not only are WE helping our citizens here, we are helping everyone here.  I hope all who deserve it get the vaccine of their choice and they and their families avoid the virus and I hope that the Thais that have lost just about everything due to the shutdowns can get back to work.

    I'm assuming you're referring to the early days when the vaccine was recommended to be stored at a temperature no greater than -70 Centigrade. That's long since been revised upwards. Now it can be stored for up to 6 months in a freezer at -25 to -15 degrees Centigrade. Many household freezers can do that. In addition, once defrosted, it can be stored in a refrigerator for a month at 2 to 8 degrees centigrade.

    I can rent out my freezer for a while against a few doses. Present temp. -24 Degrs C. and can go lower if needed....

    It was Bro Nanaplazaetc who looked down on eating insects. 

    You obviously have an eclectic and adventurous diet, congratulations. 

    I vary between pad Thai and pie and chips. 

    You should try the ant eggs..

    Yes they could learn correct English and thus boost literacy levels. 

    I have eaten seafood in restaurants I thought it was good. 

    Thais enjoy eating insects. And rats. 

    It's not because you can read Shakespeare you can cook.... What's wrong with insects ( future world food ) and rats???

    All the Thais on Facebook (according to my wife) are talking about how tourists are starting to come back to Phuket and realizing that nothing is open.  They are surprised anyone wants to come at all with the current state of business affairs there.  I think it will primarily be a launchpad to other parts of Thailand after the 14 days elapses.

    Didn't they know that before coming?????

    You should get a quarantined clearance certificate from the hotel upon leaving to say you have done quarantine. Then from getting this you can go to where you wish but only if direct as possible. If you stayed a night somewhere and moved to another part of country you become same as everyone else following restrictions and liable for more quarantine etc.

    There is NO quarantine in Pattaya for local tourists, that's what he will be once his ASQ in BKK finished....

    The doom mongers want it to fail so bad they are getting desperate now. Trying to turn it into a conspiracy or whatever.  "OMG, there are no pictures of tourists on beaches.  It all must be fake news!".

    It's not fake news, just very sad news....

    The Bell Bus to northern bus terminal does not operate.

     

    The bus to/from Jomtien bus station with very reduced service.

    E.g. only 3 buses during the day to/from Jomtien following their website:

    https://airportpattayabus.com/from-suvarnabhumi-airport/

    https://airportpattayabus.com/from-pattaya/

    Nice that they write "back to normal service on 1st August" without the year and no date on the site.

     

     

    That's called anticipating. 555555

    Perhaps instead of just asking for people to give you a bunch of information and ideas in general about the cost of living in various countries around the world, you may get better and more logical responses if you take the time and effort to say what you've learned so far or what's important to you.   

    Do we really care?????
