Now 7-day stay for Sandbox tourists from any country in the world
Cherrytreeview replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Apotheka, Soi 11, Bangkok Saxophone Bar, Victory Monument, Bangkok Adhere the 13th, Koh San Road, Bangkok Would be my go to places in Bangkok. Saxophone Bar will have 3 artists/bands at the weekend. Ped's blues band used to play Friday and Saturday nights. Saxophone Bar will have a mix of mainly Thai's but some farangs. They have a full food menu and is a great place to take a date. There are pool tables and TV's upstairs as well. I always go to see Cottonmouth play on a Wednesday night at Apotheka. Keith Nolan has a great line up and Deni Hines sings with him as well. Adhere the 13th is tiny, but the house band are very good. -
All these pricing metrics are in the past. Thailand hasn't even reopened yet. They are going to get their lost earnings back and that means prices are going to go up. Pattaya ST 1000 baht? Not if they have customers lining up, it will be highest bidder wins. Wouldn't want to be in Thailand on a frozen UK state pension.

I doubt you have seen anything yet. Thailand closed for 2 years and they are going to get those lost earnings back. Expats and returning tourists are going to get rinsed. The global tourism industry is doing it, so why shouldn't Thailand? I don't blame them.

You make all the comments you want. Jumping through admin hoops and a Thai government that changes the rules overnight, doesn't inspire confidence in potential tourists. You live in Thailand. Totally different and you know it. So stop the Thaivisa negative poster BS. Imagine your half way round the world and are about to invest £5k plus on a trip to Thailand on a bunch of hunches and promises that may or may not be honoured the day you travel to Thailand.

Thailand reports 11,646 new COVID-19 cases and 107 more deaths

That's why the vast majority won't travel and take the chance. -
https://thepattayanews.com/2021/09/29/reader-talkback-what-do-you-think-about-the-current-plan-to-reopen-pattaya-to-foreign-vaccinated-tourists-in-november/ If this is correct, as i read it, it means that apart from having to book certain ASQ hotels, you will be free to roam Pattaya and Jomtein as you wish. If the nightlife was open, it would certainly attract the winter snow birds. It is reported on another thread that Thai embassies are using digital means to validate passports. No need to put in the post. I won't be travelling this year but i will be honest and say i think thing's will begin to ease over the next 6 months.

OP-ED: England’s unfriendly travel regulations
Cherrytreeview replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I think your being very touchy and looking to take offense. I voted to remain in the EU and have no doubt it has created extra layers of bureaucracy. If you live in NI i would think this would be amplified. However, we are where we are and have to work are way through it. I wish you, your family and business all the best for the future and hope we can have hastle free travel to Thailand as soon as possible. -

The fuel association is saying the ridiculous panic buying is beginning to ease. https://www.politico.eu/article/europes-looming-truck-driver-shortage-trucker-haulier-brexit-hgv/ This article begs to differ from you about EU driver shortages. I notice my dismantling of your comments about the gas companies going bust went unanswered. As did the global supply chains issues that everyone is facing. A pity your son couldn't take himself off to the nearest KFC so the poor lad doesn't starve. You sound like the stereotypical remainer complaining that every issue is blamed on Brexit. Going by the apocalyptic vision you are trying to conjure, you would think the remoaning Labour Party would be ahead in the opinion polls and a few people might actually know who Kier Strarmer is. Anything else you fancy having a moan about? -

Dear, dear. You should get out more. It's not good to spend your day in front of the TV. Get some fresh air. There are Europe wide shortages of lorry drivers. In fact, i believe it is a global issue. We have just come through a global pandemic and supply chains are restarting, hence the reasons for a lot of shortages and the increased cost of shipping goods. Things like toys coming from China etc. Last week, Nike announced major delays due to pandemic related factory closures in Vietnam. There is no fuel shortage in the UK and you know it. There are a lot of headless chickens driving around filling up their cars when they don't need to. Same herd instinct that emptyed the supermarkets of toilet rolls and eggs at the start of the pandemic. It just takes a bunch of clowns on social media to start the rumours and the simple minded press the panic button. The energy companies going bust was because they did not hedge their pricing when global gas shortages led to a steep increase in wholesale gas prices. Their problem for bad business. Their customers, however, get moved automatically to new suppliers at no expense. Once again TVF's resident economists can be relied upon to print total inaccuracies. -
If it wasn't for the UK funding the AZ vaccine research, Thailand wouldn't be 70% vaccinated until 2030. Interesting your perspectives never take into account the complete and utter failure of the Thai government to join covax or procure vaccines in a timely manner. @Kadilo any updates on the date of your return flight to Thailand?

Read what I have posted for you. If you had a shred of integrity you would apologise. Until you do, your future comments are fit for the garbage bin. -

The UK doesn't believe Thailand is doing enough genome sequencing. Who cares, Thailand isn't let UK citizens in without quarantine. I would guarantee that the UK will allow Thai's quarantine free entry before Thailand allows Brits. That, of course, won't be acknowledged by the usual suspects. -

UK doesn't think Thailand is doing enough genome sequencing of the virus. UK does 1 million plus tests a day. Thailand does about 40,000 and a BOGOF at the local 7-11. To be fair, at least you are constant in your ability to ignore or misinterpret the facts. -
Pattaya Music Festival will be moved to November, says mayor

No, he's just stating the obvious. Here's an article describing how successful the reopening of Pattaya will be. -

Yes exactly. Tried to explain this to someone who responded to me earlier on this issue. I think some posters first language isn't english or their just not the brightest. -
85% of teachers must be vaccinated before schools reopen

85% of teachers must be vaccinated before schools reopen
Cherrytreeview replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Another riddle of a policy. 70% of the general population vaccinated seems to be the get back to normal figure quoted everyday. Now they've raised the bar to 85% in schools. Think many will start looking for an exit strategy for themselves and their families out of Thailand. Clueless.
