Ernest at heart

I live about 14km (Na Pho) from Thung Song. We are on higher ground. Thung Song is situated in a valley with mountains on 3 sides. It rains with greater frequency than where I live just north of Thung Song so because of it's location the problem to relieve floods is not such an easy one to solve. 

From what I understand from several media reports the increased demand is not only in Thailand but also other SE Asian countries. Specifically I refer to the Philippines where they've just scrapped the current visa programme as they were being inundated with request from China. If you were Chinese living under the CPP regime in China that alone is a huge incentive to flee the country for a freer and no doubt better existance than under the CPP. No doubt many Chinese with cash and there are many of them were also applying en masse for elite visas to Thailand.  I believe the so called coronavirus-free country is not at all the major motivation.

Please advise.

I too would question the occurrence of Covid. I don't know of anyone in any country who's come down with Covid. I ask almost everbody I come into contact with but I always get a reply in the negative. I also did a 14-day quarantine in Toronto end of July through August and at this largest quarantine hotel in eastern Canada I asked the nurses and so far they had reported no cases of Covid.   Should we be suspicious ... without hesitation I  would say yes.  For sure there is somekind of a virus which can be infectious but if you look at the facts and the science it has been blown way out of proportion!
