Looked and sounded like he flew over Phuket in a helicopter, guess he didn’t want to get too close to all the poverty struck people, then flew over affluent Laguna, I’m sure he gained much knowledge about the crisis in Phuket????

Around in circles they continue to go???? 

China releases the virus but now the right person to talk to about fixing it? first they have to admit what exactly it is????

A bit like closing the barn door after the horses have left????

I think it’s an Asian thing, I had problems in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur where in both cases they seemed to think the deposit was theirs to keep and I should be thankful that they let me rent their property????Tenants don’t seem to have rights in Asia!

Pepper’s Pub near Laguna, all day breakfast small or large ????

Slightly off topic but very related question, does anybody know why Thailand was dropped from the “isolation Exempt” countries entering the UK? If Thailand has such control of the virus and highly rated in its approach why would they be dropped? Does the UK know something that the Thai government isn’t telling us?

Why has Thailand been taken off UK no isolation required list? What exactly has prompted this?

Have not been able to login to the Thai Immigration App for last 4 days, anybody know what is going on with it?

I’m using SaferVPN and have no complaints, you can sign up for $5 for  a month no obligation and try it, if you like it they have cheap longer term options.

They might want to open all the beaches if they are opening for tourists???? Tourists want fun in the sun to????

I was also sceptical about Apple in Thailand but I needed a new phone so I went to Studio 7 in Phuket and have to say they were fantastic, I got the phone which they insisted I open in front of them and they did some basic tests on it, all very professional and restored my faith in Apple’s main reseller in Thailand???? 

My visa application was done through BKK but I did my first 90 day report in Person at Patong Immigration office and my second one I did through the immigration mobile app. 

Looking for a trustworthy pc shop to get my laptop fixed, have a virus and cannot reset. Think I got the virus through VLC player which is what I use  for my IPTV. I am located in Phuket near Laguna/BangTao/Surin, so a shop around that area would be great. Thanks

Once again shows the need for TM30 is a waste if time as clearly the bad guys don’t use them????

Gut feel is that the £ will get stronger once out of the EU. Perhaps a small dip due to the uncertainty but once UK starts negotiating trade deals with US and other countries plus take back their very lucrative fishing industry the £ will become the strong currency it once was. It won’t be propping up weak EU countries, in fact I see the Euro weakening. Great that UK never went to the Euro.

Bio metrics helped? He arrived before the new system was in, so did he get caught leaving?

It’s a crap shoot at the moment! I spent a night with 2 other guys recently at Phuket airport, we all had different situations, one (American) had been teaching in Phuket and left to go traveling, when he flew back from Cambodia to gather his belongings and sell his car they denied him entrance, he sat Locked up for 3 days as that was the next flight back to Cambodia, he had loads of funds but they didn’t care. The second was from Australia, he had tried an overland border entry from Laos but got rejected there and told he needed confirmation of his bank account, confirmation of hotel and flight out. He got all that but decided to fly into Phuket because of his bad experience at the land crossing. I was in Immigration at Phuket airport when he came in and he produced all those confirmations plus significant cash but he was rejected. After watching him although I was in the office first I fully expected the IO to start questioning me, but no questions just no entry. I had multiple entry on arrival stamps on my passport but never asked me if I had money or anything. Ages American 30-35 Aussie 50ish me 60. It seemed that they were looking for numbers to appease the higher ups. This was a month ago. Like I say, it’s a crap shoot! Made some new friends but don’t trust immigration!

Be very careful with 30 day visitor visa on entry anywhere as there is a purge on right now. Especially bad if you have multiple entries and some 30 day extensions. I got stopped coming into Phuket along with 2 other guys one of which had a 3 month visa bank statement and return flight along with paid accommodation. Other guy had been teaching for a year left for a month after school finished then came back to get his belongings gongs before going traveling. The three of us spent a night under lock and key st Phuket airport then sent back to our origin. All of us had money etc but they were not interested. So beware of the “purge”
