It seems they are the only ones who can cancel.

Very unreasonable.

One caveat:

If you decide to renew you'll get a 10% discount next year if you haven't filed a claim in the past 12 months.

Another insurance  company in Thailand just cancelled all COVID-19 policies.  AND with no refunds.  

Horrible business practices here.

Astra Zeneca. Khon Kaen would be nearest to me. Not much of a holiday. Anyway, as I said, vaccination available locally. You just have to look. 

Hopefully something comes along, good luck and stay healthy.

Scared to review and make more stringent rules it appears. I think they are in over their heads.

That was in a report from Chase.

Thailands government:

"Could not wrap there heads around the enormity of the problem"

This thread is hilarious.  Most of the comments are just the usual knee jerk "thais can't do anything right" nonsense when the story was probably not even translated properly. So the serial complainers here are not even complaining about the right thing....lol

This government has screwed this up from day one.

You've been reading to much TAT articles to assume anything else.

Even if the British embassy did follow suit, it still leaves me with a 400kms+ round trip.

 

Whereas Thai authorities are vaccinating expats within 4kms of my home.

With what?

Sinovac <deleted>?

Id travel 400 km in heart beat for an mRNA vaccine.

Stay at a nice hotel.  Make it holiday!

I think you can save airtime, but flights to Guam are not cheap.

 

Nice beaches though

They just dump it on the beach and blame Malaysia and Indonesia. 

Or use a forest reserve close to villages.

Oh they tried that, sorry.

Smart people booked and paid weeks ago.

Now it's more mahem with Sinovac being practically useless and the Astra Zeneca distribution being cut 60%.

All the while the GPO still hasn't ordered Moderna for the Private hospitals yet.

This government is completely inept.

To late.

Hospitals and large companies were attacked last year.  They continue to be due to poor IT maintenance and pirated software.

Still not ordered.

Trying to figure out there cut without being completely obvious in case they get arrested in the next coup.

Unfortunately I can't stand Issan food.

Not much there.

  What's the deal with the 20% stipulation on the 1.5 million donated pfeizer vaccines?

Hopefully Anutin hasn't pre sold them on the black market.

This is the first time I've wanted to be French.

Good for them.

Why did Astra zeneca in Europe fail to produce enough doses?

Im talking about Thailand.  Are you in the right forum?

Really? With government provided healthcare you should have already received your services. Quite a significance indeed.

Up here in Sakon Nakhon many teachers, nurses, and doctors haven't received any vaccines.

Government health care or not thered a shortage of vaccines.

When a company in Thailand fails at something it's held up as an indictment of Thai society.

When a European company fails, it's just one of those things.

Oh please!

Such gibberish.

Anyway what a mess this is.

What a nightmare.  I guess you could just drive up to Khao Lak.  Much nicer but nothings really open.

Initially it was supposed to be 10m a month. But these were the figures being put out by Prayut's government. We have no idea what the actual agreement was with AZ, or what the actual capacity of SBS is/was. Prayut was hell-bent on selling an "opening Thailand by October" plan to the Thai public. A sub text was 61m by the end of the year, which also was calculated using the 10m per month schedule. If that's cut in half, it will take an extra 6 months into 2022 to reach that target at 5m a month.

 

That's why the mad scramble to beef up the numbers with Sinopharm, Pfizer and Moderna. Plus, there are others coming on stream.

What a mess.

Nothing to do with Thailands failure.  

But if need to know why not just Google it?

Lunatic.

3 hours of training should straighten him out though.

Thank you for the reply Ubonjoe. He was the supervisor who told me to leave the country and not take advantage of the covid extension. I mean, besides the extension fee, I'm spending around 65-80k monthly, more in some months. Planning to go back home in October but I guess the IO doesn't want us around anymore.

Thats the attitude of immigration since the junta took over.
