Not only is this very sad but it’s disgusting and usually only happens in a third world country???? The sheer incompetence of a government headed by a military general and health system run by a non medical ex bodyguard is mind boggling???? Why would anybody go there and spend money that supports such incompetence????

I can imagine how the meeting starts off……..”things are looking great as we (government), and you (CEO’s) are getting richer by the day and we have pushed the blame on the people of Thailand. The Pandemic has helped put us (govt & CEO’s) in a very strong position moving forward, as the PM may I suggest that all of you, as wealthy businessmen, keep a sharp eye out for new business opportunities caused by “regular” Thais going bankrupt and out of business????In closing, please do not forget to leave those brown envelopes we  handed out, in the basket on your way out????

I don’t see any problem, if you have that much resistance then.
 

Use a card that is going to expire soon and don’t update it when it expires or find a site that generates fake unworkable credit card numbers. For the address details enter fake information. You will probably really really want to enter your own phone number and email address as fakes there will bite badly later. 

 

I have an Apple ID that is for the USA store, all the details are fake it allows me to download free USA only apps.

 

Apple is almost certainly well aware that this is possible and as long as it doesn’t cause problems they let go. Just don’t try credit card fraud.

You can also add your credit card information download the free apps you want then cancel your card details on iTunes 

Sorry to hear you are giving up on Thailand but not surprised???? I understand that the Thai government will be happy for another dirty faring to leave but they respectfully request that you leave your money behind????

While im not in front in this government i'd say he is right 100%  . Meeting others , anybody , can be sister. brother , child , parent , friend , parent anybody at all , can lead to further spread of the virus . It really is anybodies own case which gives it reason to exist .  Government can only give advise , it is all up to you and meeting anybody can lead to spreading it further .

He refused to mention his disastrous vaccine rollout, which, like it or not is helping other countries and he has focused on opening up Thailand instead of increasing vaccine purchase! He also doesn’t seem to realize that vaccinated people, who he welcomes, can still spread the virus as the vaccine only protects the person vaccinated????

Add the word "incompetent" and it perfectly describes this government's handling of the Covid situation ! 

A democratically elected government would not survive this gross incompetence????????????

Priorities in wrong place as there will be no country to protect the way Covid is running rampant????

Thailand’s pandemic is out of control???? Massive vaccine rollout failure and fast becoming worst country in the world to visit???? They should forget about “Sandbox” bs and get their vaccine act together as nobody going there if they have to quarantine when they get home! 

The only large numbers are the rising Covid cases, why doesn’t Thailand sort out their vaccine rollout before worrying about bringing in tourists????

All the corruption in DC and they are worried about Thailand????

It seems the Thai government is blaming their people for the pandemic instead of taking the blame for their total mismanagement in organizing the vaccine and forcing Sinovac on people that now appears useless????why would anybody be more concerned with Covid visa extension as opposed to getting the hell out of there before this becomes a true national disaster????

It’s obvious who dropped the ball on Covid but the blames keeps getting deflected to the people, for breathing, eating, trying to work, trying to exercise, trying to survive. How about somebody in authority organizing vaccines (that work) for everybody like many other countries are doing! Before you know it all people living in Thailand will be told to stay home, not go out and save the country that the leaders have failed to save????

Big tech social/media is the root of many serious issues, especially among young school age victims, causing numerous suicides???? Big tech/social media has developed this  “click like” mentality causing people ( especially the youth), to feel like losers if they don’t have huge followings???????? Peer pressure has become the devil! Big tech/social media make millions on every click and millions through ads geared to our youth???????? Big tech/social media can stop the racial abuse if they want, they can stop unverified accounts and force these cowards into the open or more likely to disappear, but that would eat into their huge profits! The racial abusers  must have their anonymous platforms taken away or it will just get worse????????Bottom line is that Big Tech/Social Media should be held accountable and take the pressure off kids and get rid of anonymous racial abuse????

Bye bye sandbox  idea

 

assuming you can leave Phuket where are you going to Go ? Thailand has implemented a travel curb. Malls are closed, many business are shut down. then you have the risk to contract the virus depned on which vaccine you took.

 

so if you are in Phuket as a visitor best to go home after your 14 days tour. 

come next year

 

Your very optimistic, you think this mess will be resolved by next year????????????

Difference maker????

The pandemic has been totally mismanaged to the point of incredible incompetence and the government response to this is to ignore and hope the problem goes away???? Problem is it won’t go away and case rate and death rate are going to implode! Only way out is stop talking about getting vaccines and just get them at all cost! Thailand rated 3rd worst country for handling Covid, you would think that rating would attract some senior government attention, no, nothing but crickets????

So PM is correct in saying the “Phuket Sandbox” is a success????

If it was anything like Phuket it was a joke, couldn’t register at 9 because of “problems” then later you only got “ cannot access that site” I suspect it was for friends and family so Bangkok hospital will not get another baht from me????

Maybe it’s time to boycott Red Bull products, including F1’s Red Bull racing team, money talks????

So how many Tourists have arrived? Real tourists!

As my 7 year old daughter would say “whatever”

At last. 20m is a decent number, but needed to come sooner, much sooner. Now they have to ensure that it is competently distributed (when it finally arrives).

It’s not ordered yet, it’s always “have approved” never ordered????????????
