Received an e-mail from the Department of Disease control tonight.  Now they want a Certified copy of the passport in order to process the international vaccination certificate.  Just checked and it will take the US Embassy 10 days to accomplish this at a cost of 1,750 Thb, and then another 100 Thb to mail it out.  This is starting to get ridiculous.  God does Thailand love to make one jump through hoops or what.........Think I will just let it ride and put it in the round file.  

I would think what they mean by "...certified copy of the passport...." is a copy of your passport that you sign yourself, with the double line strike thru of the whole page (another "thai thing" I have not seen anywhere else in the world....????????). 

If what the official Truevisions account states on Facebook is true (????), they will show Formula 1 on Channel 666

If someone asks a question and they veer off your Fauci narrative you automatically think they're trolling.

You don't have all the answers Jeffrey, I'm sorry. 

Just let people people live jezzz...

Your last sentence is exactly the reason why getting vaccinated is a good idea!!

If anybody else has the problem of getting an "API Error" when trying to register on the Mor Prom App: Call 02-7922333 (which is apparently the Mor Prom call center, surprisingly the guy that I had on the phone spoke decent english) and explain the issue to them. For me the issue was that they did NOT have a record of my phone number on their system (even though the mobile number was shown on my Vaccine Appointment Card that I was given!!) and therefore I could not register with the ID Number given on the Vaccine Appointment Card. The Call center staff updated the missing mobile number and I was then able to register immediately without a problem!

 Well said , I personally also have a problem with not only police behaviour but the language and manner .

 

if you watched the video you can hear and see how police tone a d manner changes when they addressing thai . 
 

for some reason being polite and cordial is not needed when speaking English or speaking with foreigners, it is only required when speaking thai. 
 

police did not ask if they could enter but demanded entry and forced their way in. Did not even attempt to listen or see what was happening . 

I actually think the person that took the Video and that you can hear speaking in "English" IS actually the snitch and it was not the police taking the video that is shared on social media!!

The reason why I say that is that he very proudly proclaimed towards the end of the video that he "lives here" and that they can take photos of him, somehow i doubt that the actual police would be so enthusiastic about that. 

IF that is really the case that would be the most infuriating thing for me about the whole kerfuffle....????????

Spoke to a Thai friend that arrived yesterday afternoon from Koh Samui with his wife. Apparently they had to get out of the car for a temperature check and then had to walk through a disinfectant spray "curtain" and then they were good to continue their trip....;-)

An interesting tabulation. Why have you omitted the sources for this data?

Sorry, maybe because I am getting old....????????

You actually think they are testing everyone in Thailand that dies everyday - which they do in uk ? Unbelievable 

1.) I never said that. What I meant was that there is no excess death in Thailand (if the number are to be believed, which obviously you do not as Thais and in specific this government is only lying, according to you and many others on here). 

2.) Whats your obsession with the UK? This thread should be about Japan and Thailand as far as I understand it.

3.) Are you sure that everybody that dies in the UK is tested after they die? I of course do know that a lot more people are tested over there and that virtually everybody that dies and that was previously tested positive is/was counted as a Covid19 death......

Another one that seems to be waving the flag for the incompetent faking junta manipulators. UK - roughly same size as thailand - tested 18.8 million (25% population)- Thailand tested 750,000 (1 - yes ONE %) , uk tests per million 270,000 Tahiland a pathetic 7000.

Well done UK then! How many people died again in the UK and how many in Thailand?

Ah, I forgot all the dead bodies here in Thailand are not counted.....

Can there not be some middle ground with all you Thailand haters, does everything have to be Black or White?

Using your data source 

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

Both Thailand and Japan seem to be rather <deleted> at testing. Rated 144 and 153 in the world table of Covid reporting counties.

 

True, but then again I was replying to a poster that basically claimed that there is no testing in Thailand and as this new suspected case was found while arriving in Japan I just wanted to point out that if these numbers are to believed more people are getting tested in Thailand than in Japan.

Certainly both customers are not testing a lot, but why would you need to test a lot if there are not many serious cases (I am referring to Thailand here, not Japan...)? Sure, there can be a huge percentage of asymptomatic cases here, but then I would also suspect that there should be a lot more serious cases that would require hospital care than there apparently are.

For me personally the bottom line is that nobody really knows in any country in the world what the real figures are and I certainly do not think that Thailand is doing an exceptionally bad job at handling the situation, contrary to many other western countries in the world.

"Surprisingly" she is apparently out of jail again since the 25th, according to her Twitter account and based on the latest photo that she put on there they are enjoying their freedom again.

Wonder at what "cost".....

As always in these cases I would strongly recommend to check out MemoryToday at Fortune Town:

Looks like somebody did not get the memo that they are not suppose to sell alcohol....

Don't you think, the two BiB's in the picture clearing the formalities, how to handle this?

Believe it or not, I realized that as well when I saw and talked to them.... that they were "trying" to sort out the formalities.

Foolish of me to think that they (whoever delivered the evil goods) would not even try to pull something like this of....

Also love the fact that they are so considerate to set up Smoking Lounges and a Bank with an ATM inside their Party Zone....

Looks like somebody did not get the memo that they are not suppose to sell alcohol....

SOS Thankyou kindly for that detailed information......but aren't we on the Apple forum?

Apologies. Forgot that some people use Macs.

Well, yes....who would have thought that there are "some" people in the Apple Forum that use a Mac.....

To the OP:

Why don't you just use Preview to add the few lines and words to it?

Just double click the JPG file Screenshot and Select TOOLS, then ANNOTATE and you can add several elements to the File.

Works for any document that you open with Preview
