I did't see him forking out some, little some, of his vast fortune to help any Thai people during this harsh economic times either by helping with food or god forbid try to buy some vaccines on the open market and spend some of the multi billions he made on the back of his people, re-elect him? for what benefits? so he can make MORE money?... he's no leader, he's an opportunist...
Put it down to the cost of doing business.....everything is seen as an investment.

Thailand approves self-tests, self-isolation as COVID-19 cases climb
They dont have much choice! The people know they can rely on the govt to get their act together, as recent polls have shown, so the people are left to fend for themselves the best they can. Not the ideal solution because difficult to keep tabs on the number of infections as Smedley has already pointed out but then again the people have little alternative and who believes the govt figures anyhow?

I dont understand all the fuss, its only 1 in 1,000? You could look at it the other way and say that 1 shot of Sinovac has protected up to 999 health workers out of 1,000. But that would probably only be realised if Sinovac was made in the west and especially the US.

The difference is that real Imm Officers pay a large fee to be part of the franchise whereas fake ones dont.

I run into this gang every year at visa renewal time but unfortunately thats the law here. I think the best thing to do with them is to do what my mother did when I was a child and that is to sew all their uniform pockets closed to stop them collecting stuff all the time.

I wonder how many of us guys (old farts I mean) would have stayed in Thailand without the help of the Internet. I would have found it difficult--a bit boring.
You are right however I found in Thailand if there is enough people living in an area an industry will develop in it that will provide for all your needs. In the early 80's I was living with 2 girls in an apartment in Suan Plu near the old Imm Office. Sometimes the girls used to like to rent a few movies and have a night in. Initially I was puzzled because they didnt have a TV set let alone a video machine?? However, on the ground floor was a "VDO" shop (which I first thought was some kind of clinic lol) where the girls would select a few movies (VHS back then), pay at the counter, and then return to the room. 10 minutes later a couple of young guys would turn up at the door with a video machine and TV, set it all up and leave it for however many hours we wanted it. 2 or 3 oclock in the morning they would come back, pack it all up and return it to the shop. Marvelous service!

Now Microsoft has issued a series of fixes which, while flawed, are essential updates for all Windows users.
Isnt that just typical.

Close interprovincial travel , close markets and see what happens before closing entire country or banning alcohol sales which clearly achieves nothing
But surely that would depend on who you are.......TIT!

I've watched these recently:
Cruel Summer:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11083696/
and,
StartUp (S1 so far, 2 & 3 are available too):
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5028002/
Both very different, but good IMO.
I thought Cruel Summer was going to be some teenage girl dribble and thus had my doubts about you lol but found it very entertaining. The shifting back and fwd in time had me somewhat confused at times but still thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you.
Couldn't get into Startup at all but thanks anyhow.

Q. Can I come to Pattaya then and throw a private house party or beach party as you can in Phuket right now?
Further information is required in order to answer your question eg:
How much money do you have?
How much are you willing to spend?
Who do you know in Thailand?

The supplies are due to arrive before the end of the year
Lets hope there is enough survivors by the time it gets here lol.
And who is going to keep count I wonder?? Its like handing out a bunch of 1,000 baht notes to a stranger and asking him/her to hand them out to any foreigner they pass. ????

After my post above, I searched for inbetween and it found my post, so search appears to work. Perhaps I've had a senior moment and imagined that someone recommended Mr Inbetween previously. If anyone knows different, please enlighten me.
The search worked? Wow! You should buy a lottery ticket.

Unfortunately, they still seem to belive in this deaf and blind strategy, almost like their approach to the traffic carnage.
Agreed. The govt can respond any way it wants but it really depends on how the grassroots respond. I find it similar to the wearing of helmets here. The govt can make it law, the people can see the risks of not wearing one on TV every day, and yet its a struggle to get them to wear them (well up here it is). Lately 99% of the people in my small Isaan village wear masks, on the street at least. However if you were to venture into somebodies back yard, where they are out of sight, I have found they dont, even when they have visitors. And I keep getting the same stunned replies...."Oh but this is Thailand, or this is family, its different" .
An example. I had a very heated discussion with my wife last night because she wanted to go to a funeral today. An aunty had died and a big mob of family had come up from Bangkok to attend. She had already been there the day before intending to visit b4 the bangkok mob arrived. However some of the family had come to see her mother asking that the wifes family attend again. I told her that I did not want her to go and also that the family were being very irresponsible for pressurising others to attend especially seeing they found someone the other day in our village who had the dreaded disease. I of course got the same response: "Oh yeah but Thailand different". I believe its the old loss of face thing again where they dismiss the threat of covid in favour of saving face. She saw sense eventually and didnt go but I wonder how many would have gone just to save face in similar situations.

Just finished binge watching 9 seasons of Foyle's War. Absolutely brilliant in my opinion. I thought Foyle (Michael Kitchen) was superb having an intelligent answer or come-back for every occasion even if it was just a sideways glance. Wonderful acting, scenery, storylines and an interesting look at a piece of WW2 history. The show didnt mince words when it came to the US but it is what it is I guess.
I highly recommend the series. (123movies and Dailymotion)

Thailand reports daily record of coronavirus infections and deaths
in Thailand News

Agreed. What about the plumbers, mechanics, fishermen etc.? No seperate figures for them? They just love to confuse the issue.
Or maybe someone is trying to rub it in coz not long ago they insisted the prison covid situation was "under control" lol!
