    The Ministry of Transport plans to seek Cabinet nod for waiver of toll fees under the Expressway Authority of Thailand (Exat) and the Department of Highway to promote domestic tourism during Songkran Festival, a source revealed.

    That's an incentive !

    So impressed.

    On March 5, the government declared four countries and two territories to be at high-risk of COVID-19, namely, South Korea, China, Hong Kong, Macau, Italy, and Iran.

     

    Currently, the kingdom welcomes roughly 4,500 passengers daily from these countries.

    I don't get it.

    From yesterday all passengers (But Thai) coming from these 6 countries must submit a health certificate.

    Slightly different from one airline to another.

    That's the template from Thai Airways : Health certificate must be issued 48 hours before travel !

    Cathay requires a health insurance covering at least for $ 100,000 !!

    BANGKOK(NNT) - The Prime Minister has urged government agencies to help create confidence and trust among the general public over the government’s efforts to solve national crises, especially the COVID-19 epidemic, economic issues and the drought, asking them to help create clarity and make rational and transparent decisions

    Monday : I will give 2000 bahts to low income earner.

    Tuesday : No, finally I won't.

     

    Clarity?

    I have a non-imm O multi-entry and will be returning in about two weeks to Thailand from the U.S. via transit in Japan. As we understand it now, I would just need to submit to whatever screening is presented at the airport when I arrive at BKK, right?

    As of today, you're ok. US is not in any list and Japan is in group 2 so it's just a temperature scan at airport.

    As of today... that's actually the big issue and the uncertainty for us resident in Thailand.

    I am flying to Europe this week and you never know how you will be able to come back.

  5. Crystal clear ...as always.

     

    That' s where we are right now, unless Anutin changes the rules in the next 10 minutes.

     

    All people from the 2 lists from Thai authorities (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Iran, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and Singapore)

    who need a visa MUST submit a health certificate saying that they are Covid-19 free. In clear, it mean no way to come here since no doctor will agree to give that.

     

    For the ones who don't need a visa, no changes so far: specific queues and temperature check at airport for the 1st group (China, HK, Macau, Iran, Italy) and self quarantine for 14 days with a paper form asking for whereabouts during the next 14 days + self reporting (call) on a daily basis (which has not been organized yet according to yesterday's arrivals). Legally binding.

    For group 2 countries,  no daily reporting, not legally binding.

    The Windsor Suites Hotel on Sukhumvit Road Soi 20 in Bangkok has announced that it is closing temporarily from the end of April.

     

    And the most amazing is that you can still book !

    1 junior suite for 3550 bahts on May 12th.

    Me think I am gonna add the breakfast for 420 bahts. A bargain !

    On why police have not requested South Korea to quarantine Thais who overstayed before releasing them for the trip home, Pol. Col. Choengron said it was up to the discretion of the country.

    2 days ago, PM assures that Korea will quarantine them for 14 days before sending them back. 

    We all knew it was BS.

    Immigration Police confirms !
