Don’t forget to be cashed up to stay in the luxurious Covid 19 petri dishes called quarantine hotels. Budget at least $AUD 4000.00 for the privilege per couple.

When did he leave Meuang Thai? Yesterday?

Yep great fun eating yesterdays pad Thai looking thru the window at Patong, not at the advertised beach, but the side of the next high rise. Yep got me by the short and curlies.

The bottom line is no one wants to live for 14 days in an under serviced slum of a Petrie dish for Covid 19. Same reason (in part) why I will not go to Oz while this Covid hysteria continues.

Then you are not qualified to have an opinion about constitutional matters of the British Commonwealth nor spelling.

OP, you appear to be unaware that anyone can leave Australia with the appropriate reason and documentation. There are regular repatriation flights in both directions,
Quite so. Tony Abbot had no dramas going to the UK.

5 years might be somewhat pessimistic but early next year is crazy talk. We're still in the earlier phase of this.
Well you hit the nail on the head. No one knows.

So when the almost zero arrivals exit the prison, imagine the price gouging. Rip off in the resort, rip off outside the resort.
1 km taxi 1,000 baht, and 500 baht beers sound decent. After all, the locals have been hungry for quite a few months now.
That's if you manage to go inside the bar, they might not let you in because of your skin colour.
Precovid, people smiling at you (fake smiles but still), now looking at you suspiciously.
Sounds wonderful, I cannot wait.
On a different note, Crete in September has rates starting at USD 25 p/n, and some 4-5 star accomodations in the range of USD 70-100 p/n that look amazing.
They want ONE prior covid test done in my home country (here the cost is EUR 60). Plus flight EUR 80-100 return.
Tough choice.
A person of like mind. Patong is the worst for rip offs. Even Grab drivers trying to gouge money hundreds of Baht over the posted fare. Went there at XMAS. Never again. Now Crete is one of my favourite Greek islands.

The new rogues are sky pirates especially Qatar. They were offering flights to OZ for $AUD 6,500.00 via Doha! ie B146,998.00.

I think there are quite a few "tourists" that would come given the chance to if borders were opened to allow it. Many tourist come for longer than 2 weeks. I certainly would. The cost of the ASQ hotels are not all in the same 100k range and if more tourist could come then more hotels would participate in the program to generate income.
I am sure you are joking.

No surprise that ASQs are Petrie dishes for Coronavirus.

Administrators why do you give these mysogonist neo-colonials oxygen? Is there any need to wonder why some Ferang are not tolerated by the Thai.

There was a burger shop owner named Mac, who had for years promoted a burger called Big Mac. McDonalds moved down the road and immediately accused him of appropriating the name of one of their horrific burgers. He fought them and won. If you ever go to the Gold Coast in Australia you will find the shop still proudly selling the Big Mac at Bilinga.

In Oz they are also called Noah’s Arks. Them white pointers are progressing up the East Coast into warmer waters. Time for huge white pointer cull.

I think the prognosticators should take a lesson from this thread ie there but for the grace of God go I. No one really knows how they would behave under the Nazi regime.

I agree with Simple1. The flu vaccine is not a panacea, sine the 2019 version is useless against the 2020 version of the flu. The flu vaccine is developed from the 2018 version for 2019. This seems to be an exercise in futility and Big Pharma chicanery. The Covid 19 vaccine will be another money spinner for Big Pharma. As for herd immunity that is just a buzz word for pro-vaxxers. You eliminate diseases caused by pathogens and viruses by eliminating the reservoirs where it thrives. Even that isn’t necessarily effective with polio on the rise in Eastern Europe and TB cases still being detected.

This story is fake news. Qld and WA closed their borders months ago. The latest furore is about Victoria’s mismanagement Of Covid 19 by opening too soon, and hotspots erupting. NSW has closed its borders to Victoria AGAIN. Not that NSW has a lot of glory in this arena. They let the passengers of the plague cruise ship Diamond Princess disembark at Sydney and scatter across the country without quarantine or testing. Meanwhile one of Australia’s corporate villains is contesting the constitutional validity of closing State borders. More of the farce that is dear old Oz.

All of these comments are xenophobic speculation. Where is your evidence for fudging numbers?

Read the threads on this forum. Then run for the hills from most expats.

It is amazing how everyone knows how to teach because they went to school. Ferang 123 ignore these absurd comments above. I seems to me it is a more complicated lesson plan schedule, with the saving grace that you get to teach the same lesson 2 or 3 times. I think your real concern is dealing with littlies, and I agree that is a challenge. This is because infant language learning has to be fun, games etc. our daughter teaches infants English in China. Maybe she can help. If you want to PM me send me a link. I am an ex-schoolie of 14 years standing and I refuse to listen to anyone who hasn’t done the job, like the “learned” brickie above.

Nothing like the smell of moral indignation. There is something happening about the sacred shibboleths of the USA and the rest of the world. Wake up to it, things are going to change. And belly aching about it is just boring and old fart moaning.

And just who may they be. Your post reeks of political rhetoric, dear Mr Pot.
