I have checked with the Immg but they gave me a standard answer: re entry permit is not refundable. But this is COVID that we are talking about. Not any ordinary no-use-permit. 

You walked out of Immigration with your re-entry permit?  The warranty was over as soon as you crossed the threshold.

The foreign ministry’s Geng said there was no conclusive evidence that the virus originated in China, and warned that “political manoeuvring” behind calls for an independent investigation would not be successful.

Let the lawsuits begin.  Perhaps China should threaten the EU as they just did with Australia.

Eleven foreigners and twelve Thais were rounded up and taken into custody. 

Should I have noticed, that this sentence, buried within this "article," also mentions twelve Thais?

11 Foreigners  +

12 Thais

=============

Pattaya: We warned you about not going on the beach! Eleven foreigners taken to police station

Sorry folks, but the math just doesn't add up.

The poster - who said this was Nok Air - said that the flight used an aircraft with a propellor, something that the passengers were allegedly not told about before. 

It's called a Turboprop.  Imagine the level of the mind that thinks the only way to propel an aircraft, is with a jet engine.

Perhaps this mental giant would have been happier to see a very large rubber band that can be twisted to turn the props.

Maybe this will end the TVF debate on this subject for those willing to accept common sense. Or not.

You're kidding, right?  There are some who are so rooted in nonsense, and whose heads are as thick as tree trunks, that no amount of hard fact will move them from their idiotic stance. 

So CNN has decided that masks work?  I always tell the idiots who tell me it doesn't, to stop using condoms as those must not work either.

The only response to CNN can be summed up in one word:

DUH

she is waiting on your bank statement

Which bank provides potential suitor statements?  Are they only good for one day, like the ones produced for immigration?

Yes, it's still chlorine, albeit with the chlorinator producing it 'naturally' from the salt. Should still be testing levels frequently and also adding in salt when required - the chlorinator might tell you how much. But as with any normal pool, you would also still need to keep it balanced - i.e. pH and total alkalinity levels, and possibly address level of calcium hardness.

What level should the chlorine be?

I wonder how many were wearing masks......

 

Same as the people in the stadium in Northern Italy during the soccer game.

France and Spain have similar numbers to Italy, how do you explain those? And how in the top 35 list of countries affected, there's not a single one from Southeast Asia?

MADRID (Reuters) - Thousands of women across Spain marched on Sunday against gender inequality to mark International Women's Day, despite concerns the gatherings could help the spread of coronavirus.

Part of the early explosion of cases in Thailand was from the Lumpini Stadium superspreader which came from Italy. So it doesn't add up at all, Thailand with 35 deaths and Italy on the brink of 20000. More likely that the virus weakens significantly in the tropical climate.

I was told that our salt-water pool has chlorine in it.  Which chemicals are typically used here, in salt-water swimming pools?

I have plenty of pictures of Thais wearing masks improperly but I'll start off with some American dumbasses wearing masks improperly.

Here are two to start.  The lower photo is a particular type of dumbass homegrown in the great State of NY, and representing NYC as a Congressman and now a Senator.

Wirat reportedly told police that they bought the fake watches from a manufacturer at Bt500 apiece with the intention of reselling them at around Bt12,000 each.

Quite a markup - the balls on these two.  I've seen some very good "copies" of the real watches but can't imagine what 500b gets you.

No.  Most of them make about 12,000b a month if that.  The employers here exploit all of them, especially the women.

This was in February. your Canadian friends and Trudeau did exactly the right thing at that moment providing help to the epicenter of the outbreak.

Leaving the country with no masks, by giving away your stockpile is not the right thing.  Now people are dying because of this stupid decision.

Perhaps China is doing what an American used to do to the people of his own country.

 

Not pay the companies who did the work for him and letting them go bankrupt and look where that got him.

Perhaps the above is complete nonsense and you made it up.  Prove the above statement.

Could it be that they want us to either die or leave?  I am contemplating the latter rather than risking my life at immigration.

You put yourself at risk just being on the airplane.

Yes, that was nice of China to give back some of the stuff dummy Trudeau sent them in February. How benevolent.

I would say China the creator of the bioweapon gave back a sliver, not some.

I saw this scumbag woman's video a few days ago.  Watch the video and you'll see why the Chinese have a bad rep in my country.
