Imagine if the y had the truth about Phuket who would have come? some probably would but only those who care about the beaches and the views, but anyone who thought that bars restaurants and other places of fun would be open got very disappointed, and i know, i just been there...

I dont know what parts of the island you visited but a friend has been there for months and he eats in western food restuarants once or twice everyday , with beer. Some he has to walk past because they are almost full and has to find a quieter one. So he is not the only person enjoying himself. Girlie bars open are easy to find too.

Have heard nothing in Chiang Mai yet.  I'm over 60 with a noted condition too. 

 

I heard this was not a first-come first-serve registration too.  It would start with the oldest and people with medical conditions and move down the list.

If your in Chiang Mai you have had every opurtunity to be vaccinated. For more info go to COVID International Community Support Chiang Mai on facebook. Hope that helps

Can anyone tell me, what price these so-called

"Specially Approved Hotels cost??"

 

Cheers in advance

They start from about 800 baht a night. There maybe even cheaper ones than that.

The cops hung around the front of the house for I bet 30 minutes before entering. That gave the people inside plenty of time to hide what ever they wanted.

I do not drink coffee. Do you think they could re-calculate with a take out beer each week?

No. It means you can afford to live one year longer

Somehow such reports give the impression that the Chinese are the first and only tourist that arrived so far in Thailand. But this is obviously not the case. Would be interesting to know how many arrived in total so far and from which countries and how many tested positive. 

Over 20000 non Thais have been through the 14 day quarantine system so far. I think more have come from the US than any other country

Lets hope there are journalists to see  this plane arrive and what really happens.

Shows how much he knows about the country. Thailand is already the hub for digital nomads

So many people saying this is a pointless exercise and no one will want to come under these conditions. Currently there are well over a 1000 foreigners every week entering the country and doing the 14 day quarantine. Me being one. They are expecting attract another 300 a week with this new visa and i think they will do this easy.

I just pressed something at the bottom of the page and it has now appeared, so i should be ok now. Hope i can get to Thailand before the flights are closed from the UK which has happened from many other countries. Thanks again.

Thanks for that. On the guide on page 18 it shows a button " choose file" but on the website where I am applying its not there. Thats the issue I have

Just in the process of getting a Non Immigrant O visa from the Thaievisa website in the UK. It is asking for my passport to be scanned in but cant see how that can be done. . I think somebody  posted something on here going through the process but cant find it. Any help would be apprecieted. Thanks.
