Maybe you are right. I think the Thais were exploring a vaccine based on chilis and fish sauce. 

 

Thai SpicyVac 

Typical as they refute everything the rest of the world does. "We foreigner, we no understand" ????

No

Ninety day reporting and a bank balance check are not tied together.

I would guess that you are unable to do the report online due to getting a new extension since you last report. Others have had the same problem.

Any thoughts Joe on why those of us who recently (October 2020 for me) received a new extension (1 year retirement O visa in my case) would be having problems? I have successfully completed 3 TM47 reports online this year (2020). I have tried Chrome, Firefox, IE & Edge browsers multiple times each with no luck.

Is anybody still experiencing problems with the online 90 day reporting?

 

For the time I have spent trying to get it to work I could have done it in person!!

I tried several times today (Wednesday Dec. 23rd) with no luck getting past the first page. My report isn't due until Jan. 6th so I will keep trying every day.

As the Prime Minister, it is down to you and your cronies to prevent this, which you obviously have not done, therefore the responsibility is with yourself.

The authorities are charging the smugglers 6,500 baht per person to sneak across the border. Thai people hire these illegal immigrants and pay them well below the minimum wage. Thai people refuse to work for slave wages. Thailand, I hope you are happy with yourself...

They are, but now they are deflecting to protect the good name their wives, girlfriends and daughters.

That's right, 100% focus on migrant workers and let Thai's go about their business as normal because this is spread by migrants only. They really cannot stop themselves from being massive racists can they?

You can't fix stupid...

The usual xenophobia apart from the original instigator of this catastrophe of course he appears to be thinking it cannot be passed on to Thais ???? 

Why don't they do mandatory testing at all the temples and see how many "dirty NOT a farang" are infected ????

so this now a migrant only disease ?

 

and what exactly is screening - 98% of people who get the China Virus are asymptomatic 

Migrant and "dirty farang".

This gentleman sounds like an intellectual.

Unfortunately, Thailand does not seem to have the overall intellect to pull any of this off.

They will figure out making big money off tourism is actually easy and will revert back to that concept if and when the opportunity arises.

Yes, I think you are right judging by the number of people that lay flat on their back earning money from customers ????

If your beloved, and totally useless military had not "lowered their guard" at the porous borders, there would be no need for any panic at all. 

They charge 6,500 baht per person to look the other way.

Thailand don't have the money for vaccine, haven't you heard? they plan to go to the moon now... that said, the fact that they have allowed hundreds if not thousands of Burmese workers comes in and out the country unchecked while everyone else is quarantined, heads should roll for that...

If no one has symptoms or shows up at hospital there is no need to test the entire population.

Google the definition of asymptomatic!

tosh.

 

you dont need to test if you dont have sick people

 

how do you think they found this cluster? reading tea leaves?

 

Apparently you don't understand what asymptomatic means and how a virus spreads.

Deputy provincial police chief Pol Col Phatpakorn Chanprasert ordered all people in the province to wear masks when out of doors or face fines of 20,000 baht under regulations to cover the spread of the virus.

Will never happen to Thais.  What a ridiculous comment to make.

Don't worry, they will only impose fines on all the "dirty farangs" ????

Forcing what? There is a booze ban - why do people think they should be exempted from this?

 

Some TV members seem to think that Thailand revolves around farangs - it doesn't 

Nor we around it ????

Once again it is either a minor "inconvenience" so what? 24 hours without a drink? Big deal - not. OR it's the principle of it, including the usual Thai hypocrisy and contempt for farang. When it comes to dual pricing (at national parks, for example) treat farang with conspicuous unfair discrimination even those who have lived here for many years, have work permit, legit jobs, Thai families, property, etc. But when it comes to nation-wide booze ban during elections which mean nothing and have nothing to do with farangs, nope the same law applies to everyone, we are all suddenly "equal" ????  

Should hold their phony elections during the week and not on holidays.

Such space cadets this Government is.  One can always find humor in the types of adventures they try and entertain as a reality when it is far from being a possibility.

This confirms my theory on how seized narcotics and hallucinogenics are disposed of in this country ????

Do you really think this ban is about Farangs? ????

I don't believe his comment has anything to do with this being about "farangs". His comment is more about them forcing their BS on us when it has absolutely nothing to do with us.

the ridiculous war on alcohol here continues; farang cant vote thus should be exempted from this foolishness

I agree with you 100% the law is stupid. But as usual the law does absolutely nothing because you can buy all the liquor you want to the day before and have party the day of ????

Sure there are around 50 million Thai people spending every day (allowance for pre school taken into account) and only circa 200,000 expats

Yes I see your point now... 200,000 retired expats @ 65,000 baht per month doesn't mean squat ????

There is no reason to be concerned….

 

The government’s brilliantly conceived, meticulously calculated, and flawlessly executed tourism stimulus plans are guaranteed to produce in excess of 52 gazillian bajillion Baht over the next 30 days. This will more than compensate for any minor and temporary "second wave".

 

But a 'state of emergency' still remains absolutely necessary.....just to make sure.

 

 

 

All hale!
