Since I spend most of my time in Isaan—I can tell you why so many Provinces have low vaccination rates. Up until about one week ago, these people had only SinoVac as a first shot. And up until about six weeks ago, they were offered only SinoVac for both shots. It doesn’t take a rocket scientists to understand the government tried to use up SinoVac on the Isaan people.
No that is incorrect. Try to look past the China hating and it will be clear to you. I am in Isaan and since July the vax has been first shot Sinovac followed by AZ as second. For the last 2 months or more its been AZ for 1st and second. Over 60's such as myself and those with ailments such as my wife with diabetes, have been both AZ starting from 6 July which is the date promised by the govt. They havnt been using Sinovac for a while here.

Mmmm can only give you my experience but I live in Kalasin province and got my first AZ (NOT SINOVAC) shot first week in July. I am over 60, which may contribute, but the hospital rang, said they have a stock of vaccine but many locals were refusing so they started looking at farang on the list.
My FIL refused to be vaccinated until his youngest daughter offered to pay him 1,000 baht per shot. Make what you will of that.
Something else I have noticed up here is the locals having no idea about current affairs. I have never seen a newspaper during the 8 years here let alone someone reading one. The TV channel is changed when the news comes on to whatever Thai soapy is available. Everything is word of mouth and mostly wrong, For example yesterday was the end of our rice harvest where all the workers get together for a feed and a few drinks. No masks were to be seen. About 4 or 5 of the men were drinking lao khao, all from the one glass as per usual, and when another worker rolled up wearing a mask, he was told it was not necessary because everyone was vaccinated.

And the police did this on their own? Me thinks there's something missing from this story??

By being willing to discuss it, are they in fact saying that gambling is more acceptable to Thai culture than pornography is even though gambling destroys 1,000's of peoples lives every year?

Does that include Johnson and Johnson baby powder?

I hope they checked with the CIA first to make sure this wasnt one of their operations to raise funds to support the overthrow of some democratically elected government or possibly to finance their war on drugs??

you can suspend the "updates" up to 1 month,
just have to remember to do it every months ????
seems to be working fine for the last 6 months ????
Yeah thats what I thought according to the settings (1 month) but it went ahead and updated overnight after only 1 week.

So any economic recovery is due to returning expats because they have already admitted that very few are tourists. Notice the wording is now 'arrivals' not 'tourists' LOL!

I am still having loads of problems with Win 10, certainly not looking forward to 11. MS have done 2 updates in last couple of weeks even though I have done everything I can find to turn them off. Each of the updates have removed all my files, settings etc and taken me hours to reverse the updates and get my laptop back. It would be nice to actually have some control of your own computer or get an update that works instead of them releasing a product and them waiting for their customers to tell them whats wrong with it!!

Apart from everything else you have to take into consideration that Thais believe that every farang has a money tree in their backyards, that there are no poor farang. All those tens of thousands or more of farang who have been out of work since this pandemic started have just had more time to harvest 1,000 baht notes from their money trees and now can have a nice holiday in Thailand.

Actually, 6 of the cars were found to belong to a dead friend from whom Joe was just borrowing them.

No way does weed make people do that - complete tosh! They might have found it but that's not what made him smash up his room - try testing him for Yabaa.
'Further tests at Koh Chang Hospital confirmed the presence of marijuana and methamphetamine in the man's system' - now that's more like it!
Hey! You dont belong here....youre talking sense!

So I'm confused
On our recent road trip we saw many CBD oil/tea shops openly selling weed.
Even now you can buy a cannabis Pizza from Pizza company.
So why bother with a cannabis test and so what if positive?
Mmmmm maybe he had the Extreme Crazy Happy Cheesy??

Always best to check with your local Imm Office as they often vary in requirements and change all the time. My local office is actually asking for less documentation than before.....surprise surprise!.

I now have ANOTHER reason for upgrading my camera! I'll need a business card too (Porn Producer and Filmography) but damn I'll have to change my VISA to one that allows me to 'work'. Question: If I don't charge for filming porn is that considered work? ????
It is still considered "work" because you are receiving benefits from that "work", namely eye candy.

is not marijuana legal now? marijuana cafes on every corner, drinks, cakes, and all the rest
not a user, but since when marijuana makes one go berserk unless laced with god knows what
Marijuana LEAF is legal now but not the buds (f/m flowers). Lots of leaf on Lazada for sale.
No it would have been the meth that set him off. Police found it in his system. They dont call it yaa ba (crazy drug) for nothing.

This has since been updated to 50 countries now accepting Sinovac for travel however since the article was published, the UK, Australia and others have joined the list.
I guess the authors forgot to check with the experts on TV first LMAO!

No Sinovac is approved for travel to the US, on its own or mix and match, as it is in most western countries.
