If you are serious about Fighting this virus

Seriously?

Doesn't the science say that the chance of contracting the disease outside is very low, and one might think that while riding a m'bike the chances would be nil, unless a passenger was sitting in front and breathing corona virus into his nose.

 

We're always being told to follow the science by some posters, so are they going to post about this?

Researchers say infections can happen outdoors, but the chances are massively reduced.

Fresh air disperses and dilutes the virus.

It also helps to evaporate the liquid droplets in which it is carried.

On top of that, ultraviolet light from the Sun should kill any virus that's out in the open.

I would say that fresh air while outside would be a benefit to both our mask bound lungs and our mental health. We don't have cultural saying such as "Take a breath of fresh air", from nowhere. Does a tree that falls in the forest still make a noise if nobody is there to hear it. Schrödinger's Mask ???? conundrum !!!

Add it to price of airplane ticket no one would care but then it would be accounted for so cant do that please pay cash to one of my officers instead then me and the rest of my corrupt friends will be happy, since covid we have to extra cash not good for us but when you come back to the land of smiles we want you to help us fix everything we have have neglected or misused. Welcome to Amazing Thailand 

That was the old scheme and universally despised. Third world scam practices that are a disgrace for Thailand to even contemplate.

Anywhere recommended instead of ThaiVisaExpert.com ?

 

 

Any example(s) of how much?

Mate, I fully recommend ThaiVisaExpert. I got a retirement visa, with extension and multiple entry two months ago. 

The service was brilliant.

I posted the original post as I was sceptical as to the validity of visa agents etc and didn't want to get scammed, but ThaiVisaExpert was great.

I contacted Mr Nadeem and he walked me through what documents to bring with me.

I went to Cheng Wattana Immigration and messaged the agent there, she was waiting for me. 

A very efficient lady named Sofiya.

She led me to the bank to get the letter, then she sorted out what other paperwork we needed.

She then led me from point to point for the places I needed to be. She waited in the queues etc.

I went to one place Signed something, and had my photo taken (possibly finger prints too), then we went to another desk.

Lunchtime came and I went for something to eat in the immigration complex and Sofiya said she would message me when I should come meet her at a certain desk.

We did the required signing at that desk, and by about 2pm I left Sofiya too it as she had all the required photos and signatures she needed.

Next day Mr Nadeem sent me pictures of my passport, visa etc and the day after a courier dropped them at my Condo.

All was in order, I left the country and returned just yesterday with a nice stamp permitting me to remain until Feb 2021.

Any questions I had re TM30 or what to do at the airport when leaving etc, Nadeem would reply, often within the hour.

The cost was 40K, but if I had tried to do this from UK it would of cost me that and weeks trying to get the documentation together.

Their service is EXCELLENT. I fully recommend them.
