I was on beach road a few weeks back and was offered marijuana every 10mins by Thais selling - one was directly across from the police staion

seems to be a small group of prolific posters on TVF who have one objective
to defend the junta no matter how idiotic it sounds

Thanks I appreciate the effort.We will hopefully one day find you correct in that the Thai numbers are correct and they end with minimal deaths I would then gladly eat my words though obviously my faith in the numbers of this "twisting and turning" and in my opinion unlawful and untrustworthy administration ebbs on the low side.
you will never find out, only thing you will ever see is what the junta want you to see, the rest will be covered up

Man countries in the World in fact most are not doing mass testing, UK included who have even said they are only testing those hospitalized.
Is Boris Johnson sacrificing the health of UK citizens? and hiding real data?
Whats every other countries excuse?
15k a day is pretty mass to me with a target of double that number PER DAY
Thailand - I'm not sure if they have even managed that in 90 days never mind one day
But hey Thailand is doing great - right ?
I said about two weeks ago
actions speak louder than words and the actions in this country don't quite fit what they are saying
Thailand would love to come out of this smelling of roses - we will never know because they will keep it well covered
In the UK when someone dies a doctor signs a death certificate and the doctor determines at that time what he thinks is the cause of death - will determine in his opinion if that death was "likely" due to CV-19 - a confirmatory test will be done later to support his diagnosis, that is the stark difference in Thailand - a death is not certified by a doctor and unless a test is carried out no one will ever know what that person died of and if anyone claims CV-19 they will be prosecuted for spreading false news - that is the reality of this country

in 15 years of membership on TVF I have put 2x people on ignore mostly because they offer absolutely nothing of value to any discussion - you are about to become No3

and just to add
every country in the world and every heath expert in the world believes that mass testing is critical - but not Thailand because it costs too much
so there you have it - they are not willing to spend the money sacrificing the health of Thai citizens and of course hiding the real data
No test no report

so lets decrypt this load of hogwash
First of all, Mass testing is critical in identifying those infected and also those that have died of the CV-19, you cannot perform contact tracing without testing.
Second - as I have been saying all along, Thailand does not want to spend the money on testing because it would cost too much !!!! - well that is all about priorities and what the government regards as important - seems the health of the population is well down the list.
If you take the the numbers from the article of tests done and infections found (although not enough testing was done to produce reliable results) - if we were to assume the infection rate was an average of those figures then we are looking at maybe 1%+ of the population is likely infected out of 70 million people
That is what I take from the article

Yes, that is true, but it often does. Also, most alcoholics will not admit they have a problem.
strangely the people I come across with serious mental disorders have all been prolific dope smokers - it seems to affect their reasoning ability and are often very confused people - thinking the earth is flat and weird stuff like that - I am deadly serious - a really weird bunch of people especially when they reach the upper 40's

Apparently there is a ban on drinking outdoors... was sitting beside the pool earlier enjoying a frosty one when a drone flew over head....
Not sure what that was about but I now ensure my bottle hides under the umbrella.
were you wearing anything

No doubt, to be "exciting" at a party you need to be drunk, however, conversely, people who get drunk are often the most boring of people when they are sober. Take these same people to a party where only soft drinks are served up and see just exciting these fools really are.
Congratulations are not necessary, I'm not a recovering alcoholic. I just don't drink alcohol other than some wine on occasions.
People ask the wrong questions.
The question should be: "why do you drink?", not "why don't you drink?". It's illogical to ask why I don't consume chemicals that can cause harm and are not necessary for the human body to function. I can give a lot of reasons why I don't, but reasons why you do might be hard to come by.
jesus mate get off the soap box you sound depressed or angry or something

My local mom and pop store yesterday was flat out delivering boxes of beer and whiskey, their delivery guy can fit 10 boxes on his sidecar scoot (I know its 10 as they had to do multiple trips to my place last week) and I'd reckon they delivered easily 200 boxes of beer if not more.
you selling it lol

@renz Note that the OP and myself ALREADY went back to imm office on specified date after under consideration stamp. If you havent yet, you better do so in case
correct, the OP had a stamp and date of "Permission to Stay" not "under consideration" which was his previous stamp
I think it is now clear that those with an "under consideration" stamp do need to return on the date specified and get a PTS stamp
I suspect there will be many that don't realise this

Absolutely brilliant idea...I take my hat off to the authorities once again...blown up to A4 size as we speak
I was critical of the handling of documents and possible spread of the CV-19
this sounds a little more sensible

I have several friends who were due to arrive this week and cancelled - it will be at least 12 months before they consider travelling again
as for China and India I wouldn't be so confident - India is in big trouble with this virus and China thinks they are over it which I very much doubt
Thailand would be very foolish indeed to open its borders to China or India any time soon - but then money and greed rules

My gf and kids are lucky that I am living here and can help them. But she applied for the 5k baht the day it went online, still not a word.
Thai people deserve better than this.
well not so long ago the government were boasting about how well the Thai economy was doing - seems they want to keep the money for themselves - nothing new in that
