Pfizer not mentioned.. so not ordered yet???

Other vaxccines will come when?? Now only Sinovac and Astra and maybe Sinopharm in a few weeks.. the rest....?? who knows

It states above that 20 million doses of Pfizer to be ordered????

I don’t think many people are going to go to Thailand as world stats show it is getting worse there not better????????????

Thailand, which was largely successful in containing Covid last year, plummets 14 spots as cases surge with outbreaks in prisons, construction camps and densely populated parts of the capital, Bangkok.

The Covid pandemic has really shown that the government’s strength is in ordering soldiers (people) around and telling them what to do and when to do it! They have not grasped the idea of governing a country and making it a better place for all of its citizens and protecting those citizens as they go about their daily lives????

The world is watching the Thailand mess very closely, nobody is going to The Sham Phuket Sandbox! Belgium just put Thailand on the Red list, more to follow meaning going to Thailand for a holiday involves a 14 day quarantine when I return, no thanks???? The handling of Covid there reminds me of a game ????

Netflix considering doing a special series on this sham called “And The Beat Goes On” unfortunately Inspector Clouseau wasn’t available????

They are planning to bring navy guys in with no bars or entertainment venues open?  Tell them they're dreaming ...

Just what we need 100’s of bored and sober navy guys running around the streets with nothing to do, they may as well stay onboard ship????

More fantasy ideas, make work committee’s that will achieve nothing????

I don't understand what these simpletons expect while making ludicrous rules.  Some people travel in families.  Others travel with friends.  Some travel alone with the intentions of meeting up with friends.  ???? (The way I read it this will get you arrested and paraded in front of Thai media. My friends from the US who used to come here annually traveled just like this - alone and meet up with buddies on arrival)

Scenario:
So you meet up with your unrelated friends at the pool when you arrive and then are arrested, jailed, fined, and threatened with deportation.  Worse, you dare to buy a six-pack of Leo or Chang to enjoy by the pool with your unrelated friends?  Or you are with your family and are nicked anyway with you, your family, and the kids dragged to the police station to prove that you're related?  Oh, and with 2 full cans of Leo and 4 empties which you are made to point at for the cameras wielded by Thai media.
I don't see how this manages to work given the propensity of authorities to make a media spectacle of "foreigners breaking rules." 

Are they that stupid to actually "go there" with the Machiavellian enforcement?  As another post aptly noted, it will be interesting to see what transpires in the first 2 or 3 weeks of this dog-and-pony show.  It they start arresting the few tourist that come and place them on display in the typical Thai media circus fashion - when that gets "back home" to their countries of origin all bets for tourism after July will be off.

My question - can the authoritarian rules-freaks contain themselves or will they immediately toss a spanner into the works as soon as a handful of tourists arrive and attempt to relax and simply "have fun."  Time will tell. 

These guys are ruining the Thai tourism industry for years to come, Thailand will/has become a “ no go” country for holiday makers????No longer the land of Smiles more like the land of Snarls????

Stop your "planning" Anutin!

Just buy 30 million doses and get people vaccinated!  Stop buying the overpriced and ineffective Chinese garbage.

Always going to order never ordered????

I guess that means the 90 day report isn’t working????

In the case of the U.S. I would expect that Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman shoveled the path for follow-on discussions during her meeting with payut a few weeks ago?

 

From the statement:

 

The Deputy Secretary reiterated the U.S. commitment to the people of Thailand in our fight against COVID-19, which includes $30 million in COVID-related assistance to Thailand. The two sides agreed on the importance of continuing to work together to combat COVID-19.

I hope somebody is tracking that US$30 million Covid related assistance, who knows where that will end up????

Sounds good to me (realizing this is a fantasy at best) but not sure the junta wants *that* type of tourist.  Millionaires or bust is their attitude, unbelievably ????

Busy it is then????

The blame game and finger pointing should be fun to watch when this Sandbox disaster fails????

Unfortunately they had no anti-venom but 20,000 Covid vaccines

Need to get Health and Safety on that issue right away????

I heard they are looking into it and are going to setup a committee to oversee a committee to study how best to arrange tv coverage???? Once the committee has gathered enough information they will make a  presentation to the other committee  on how best to solve the issue, they are expecting this presentation is expected to be completed by Euro2040………… don’t read the newspapers so you won’t know the scores????

Why would anybody go to Thailand for holiday as it is rated a high risk country requiring quarantine when you return home, Thailand was a green rated country before the Songkran mess but is now Amber and could easily go to red the way things are going????

Very suspicious that both were able to swim yet both died. Further, a luxury hotel that hadn't been maintaining the CCTV is odd.

 

 

I read yesterday that the cctv, yes you guessed, wasn’t working????

Why are these words always used when it comes to ordering Covid vaccine, looking into, going to order, will be seeking, Going to get…..always future! Doesn’t the government have an ordering department????
