What credibility.

Thank God none of you have any political power. We would all be doomed.

But I thought the looney Republican fringe said that it was used already in the US of A?

What else do you expect in a country that is now trying to use monkey pox to control now Covid is old news.

Lock him up.

The scam is the insurance only applies to being hospitalised. In January my wife tested positive at Phuket after arriving on an international flight. She was instructed to self isolate at our SHA+ hotel. I contacted the insurer and was told there was no cover for self isolation. So I bought a hotel room for her for 10 days. Two rooms were purchased by us for 10 days.

As one poster said, when was visiting a newborn Thai granny said “ Mai chai. Ferang mai dii.” That was about Covid fears. I dislike the implication that if you are a Ferang that you are vilified as a Covid vector.

I am puzzled. Covid is now water bornE?

One of the myriad of problems for Thai women is the patriarchy of misogyny of white ancient Ferang.

Oh I love Ferang oldies giving advice about child rearing.

Backpackers spend their money on entertainment, not accommodation. So any Thai venture offering sporty activities, safaris and the like will benefit.

Oh dear Mum’s version gazumps Khruu ‘s version, grow up.

Many Russians in Karon none wear masks. Arrest them all.

This thread is blah blah. Armchair scientists talking about the relative effectiveness of types of vaccines based on the fear mongering speculation of the media. I rather doubt actual “scientists” are in a position to state the “real” position about the relative effectiveness of the vaccine. How would you theoretically determine this anyway? You would have to select a group or groups representing all of the vaccines or mixes and then conduct blood tests over the life “cycle” of the vaccine. Have you heard of this armchair scientists. I doubt it. As I said blah blah.

My story is that Aussie banks require an Aussie number for novel payee transactions by credit card. I can’t get an Aussie sim here because Telstra want an Aussie to go one of their dreadful stores. An Aussie pay as you go sim doesn’t work internationally. They tell me can’t use Thai number. Ok did an online transfer from a debit account, an OTP was sent to my Thai number. <deleted>.

I am very dubious about leases. You build a house it is a fixture to the land. That is part of the land. End of lease, no longer your house. How do you sever a fixture from the land and what is it really worth.

The only effective tactic is deterrence. More cameras and road patrols.

In Khorat there is a big shopping mall on the western outskirts. No booze sold there because of proximity to a school.

Went to Kamala Beach last week. A Grab from our hotel to the town, a distance of 3 km, cost ฿360.00. A taxi charged ฿200.00. 

As per usual the arm chair experts knowledge of education is based on their experience when they went to school.

There is no pleasing everyone. Hydro electric power is green power. But possible changes to ecosystem are anathema. 

I looked at gophuget. No Covid test required at airport because Covid test required for registration on gophuget website.
