I know I didn't think of it till now but This new long stay special visa isn't supposed to work. TheY, being the government, don't want it to work! For whatever Obsurd reason they have made it so convoluted and difficult potential tourist will reject it outright. Now, the 64.000 baht question is why? Why are they he11 bent on a course of action that will add to the damage of the whole country? Someone on TVF must know.

What i want to know, had it been just a joe shmo that ran the policeman down would this saga also take 8 years to finally see the light and issue a APB on him? why did it take so many times to open and close, yes guilty, not guilty to finally come to this that he's guilty? what is wrong with the Thai police?...
What is wrong with the Thai police? Check one of the lists. There is an alphabetical list and there is a numerical list based on year, month and a numerIC sequence based on case numbers. Which do you prefer??? ????

If you are caught by their 'benz', then it is 5 years.
I'm sure their benz is going out in full force after so many months of inactivity.
Are you sure their Benz vehicles? Last time I saw one it was a BMW!

Given the absolute shambles tourism is currently in, I still can't believe they're going to send all these tourists home without even offering some alternative visa.
What's the explanation for this behavior?
Those in power are Deranged I tell you...completely deranged! ????

If the government just came out with a sensible workable strategy and stick to it things could improve rapidly. At the moment it's a bit like the committee set up to build the perfect race horse that Ended up with a camel!

Beating a dead horse comes to mind. As much as I get endless enjoyment from the verbal diarrhea spewing forth from people who should keep their traps shut the fact of the matter is the issue of helping the needy is not being considered as the #1 issue. It's bordering on madness to ignore the plight of your own citizens. All this waffle about tourists coming is getting tiring. No one is going to go through the 99 steps to get here when other countries await.

Incubation periods are never guaranteed. They are only estimates and averages based on previous cases. Every case is slightly didn't because every strain is slightly different. Then again I am no virologist!
No virologist...sure but what you say is plausible. We know enough now to see comparisons with the flu and how that mutates every year.

If this infrastructure spending is such a good idea in a crisis situation why aren't the politicians in Victoria Australia planning on some big project? My son works on big projects and says he and 70% of the other construction workers will be on the dole by Easter 2021!

You can check-in but not check-out! My son lives in Victoria and says there is a Wuhan China virus coverage map on the 6 o'clock news. And most of the map is green (no virus) with a few isolated spots of red. Everyone is asking why the he11 they are in lock down when so little is effected. It just plain crazy!

I think the money is available via the foreign currency holdings. If these projects get started, it will provide employment and in the long term will be of greater benefit to the country. Like anywhere else though, the longer it is put off, the cost increases.
Yes the foreign currency surplus
in the vicinity of 237 billion US$'S. Just 10% of that could feed the entire country for a year and forgo PEA bills at the same time plus supply all the cooking gas for free and allow free travel on public transport.

I started the bore pump today for the first time in 2 weeks. Just a 2 minute run. The guy who installed it said weekly, but not need any water!

I do stick rigidly to use by date on dairy and fresh chicken (self imposed 3 days), pork and breads we freeze. But not being a drinker of beer (had about 20 glasses in 67 years) I find it rather shocking that packaged beer can go off in such a short time! I've never had that problem with whisky. The inverse is true...it can get better with age!

I didn't vote as the 4 questions didn't provide us with (5) Do you think the outcome will be different to any of the other 4 possible answers? Given that so much is unknown in this world (5) if posed maybe the right answer.

Outside in the open air masks are most probably not necessary. Inside an air-conditioned store or supermarket most definitely. Which raises the question in my mind...why were the likes of 7/11 and Makro and Big C open earlier in the year but open air markets were shut???

As far as protest gatherings go it's all quiet on the Issan front. I though there was several protests in different locations??? Maybe I got the dates confused?

This tread has taken so many twists and turns! The mind boggles! Back to what the doctor said which may or may not be correct, which may or may not Be true. It is what he believes as true....or is he saying what his paymaster wants to hear. Oh to be a fly on the wall!

I think that would be me your having a shot at! That's fine. Your entitled to an opinion on the forum even if your not an expert on farm practices or chemicals used on the land. You hate farmers so much I doubt you would bother to become fully conversant with the subject matter...it's the way of the world these days. Maybe you read a report that condemned some chemicals which are supposed to be bad. There out there. Often written by people with their own agenda. How about a hyperthetical. So, to make you happy then the farmers of the world will stop using all chermicals tomorrow. How long do you think the food supply will last? Months? A year? Are you ready to fight or kill for some food? Cos it would come down to that. But on a brighter note we would be happy to use other chemi you would call environment friendly if the price is reasonable and it does the same job. Recommendations are always welcome.
