Can we trust the Thai government to keep its word on November 1st?
mtls2005 replied to Scouse123's topic in General Topics
I'd plan on a 7 day ASQ, at least through until 1/1/22. And a CoE, and COVID insurance through your current permission to stay. If it gets lifted sooner then that's a bonus. Planning anything re: int'l travel will be a <deleted>-shoot for a while yet. -

Thailand reports 11,200 new COVID-19 cases, 113 deaths

Plus 4,783 ATK -
This is a PC? Or a mobile phone? By "start-up" you mean what exactly? Windows? A browser? Seen this issue raised before here, and recently too.

What Movies or TV shows are you watching (2021)
mtls2005 replied to CharlieH's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I liked this film. Awesome cast. Holt McCallany was great. Based in part by the 2004 French film, Cash Truck. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0347330/ -
Online TM30 - saving data leads to an error
mtls2005 replied to bikestorm's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
AFAIK, the TM.30 website is still not able to save entered data, it's been like that for months. People say the app works though so maybe give that a go. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=th.go.immigration.section38&hl=en -
Vaccination on a tourist visa?
mtls2005 replied to placeholder's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Maybe a paid option at a private hospital? https://www.bumrungrad.com/en/packages/moderna https://www.medparkhospital.com/en/page/moderna-vaccine-booking When is your friend arriving? How long are they staying? Where are they staying? Able to get a second dose in 4 weeks? More about timing and logistics I think. https://www.thailandelite.com/ -
Interesting that with the in-country manufacturing of, we've been told, millions of vaccines, that 346,100 doses from Germany is even a thing? As with the 150,000 AZ donation/loan from Bhutan, and the 122,400 AZ donation from SIngapore, I guess every little bit helps. Good thing thailand didn't join COVAX, then decided to join COVAX, then said it wasn't a mistake NOT to join COVAX, then decided to go begging for vaccines. Shambolic, as always.

Thailand to introduce 500 baht tourist entry fee from Jan 1st
mtls2005 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Still need to hear how they will collect this tax. If it is folded into the PSC as part of the air ticket, then Thais will be paying this tax too. (Maybe this can be rebated to Thais?) Short of setting up a tip jar at arriving Immigration, I'm not sure how they intend to collect this? The old method of paying cash at departure was much reviled. -
Thailand to introduce 500 baht tourist entry fee from Jan 1st
mtls2005 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Interesting that they are quick to define the amount, but are less detailed on the collection procedures, and what the funds will be used for? Massive trough controlled by whom exactly? And we're often told tourists run up unpaid medical bills, so hopefully some will be used to pay those off?- 311 replies

Hospitals to Receive Partial Moderna Vaccine Delivery
mtls2005 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
This article has some details. Moderna delivery brought forward to mid-October https://www.nationthailand.com/blogs/in-focus/40006198 -
Hospitals to Receive Partial Moderna Vaccine Delivery
mtls2005 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
So who gets the other 60%? RTA? TRC? The regime needs to delay the private hospital option into 2022, so as to not look incompetent. Meanwhile CRA and TRC are free to order directly from Zuellig. Funny that. -
The PSC remains 700 baht. There was some talk about raising it to 1,000 baht. Now there is talk of keeping the PSC at 700 baht and collecting an additional 500 baht. Think they're still sorting the mechanism for collection. A self-filling trough.

90 Day On-line Reporting - System Not Working?
mtls2005 replied to skorts's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Both 90-day and TM.30 web/app access is down. Maybe started over the weekend, still down as of a few minutes ago. Many reports here and on FB. -
OK, I used to be a defender of the daily vaccination figures, and that they were not being juiced. I think I'll step off that train now. Saturday Covid-19 Update: New infections, deaths Vaccination data continues to be inconsistent, with the number of third vaccine booster shots administered mysteriously falling by 162,000 between September 17 and September 18. Also, while various government and news sources touted that, in celebration of Mahidol Day, somewhere between 1 million and 1.3 million vaccines were administered, the official figures from the Department of Disease Control show the number of vaccines given on September 24 to be only 765,898. Now, the reported number of vaccines given on the last day in September is listed by the DDC to be a staggering 2,288,728 injections, with over 1.3 million people receiving their second doses that day. It seems like such an impressing accomplishment would be exalted and heralded in the press, but the record-shattering achievement seems to have gone unmentioned. https://thethaiger.com/news/national/saturday-covid-19-update-new-infections-deaths

I just wish someone would come up with one, single denominator... is it 50 mm people? or is it ~ 72 mm people (entire population incl foreigners and stateless)? And what constitutes "fully vaccinated"? Two doses of something/anything? Or is a third shot required for some/many/all?

BKK Bank website and ibanking down
mtls2005 replied to klauskunkel's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
While not related to the shutdown last week, I have been experiencing issues with the mobile app and paying bills. I paid two bills yesterday. But today, when trying to pay other bills, I get a few different error messages. Hopefully they get this sorted. -
Good luck, if Liberty Media sell out to the Saudis, although NetFlix is said to be sniffing around.
