sort after means nothing sought after, however, means desired

dont thai to me

Once again, the rest of the world is showing it just doesnt understand thainess....

Any good italian or steak places open now?

can I get an update on good italian or steak places open in patong?

They are afraid to say something first because they are most afraid of being wrong with the accommpanying loss of face. Since most thais dont read western news, they think they are hearing breaking news on the topic by their thai experts

Big shots in charge tell the little people to mask up, distance, and cancel holiday plans. Then they are all seen maskless at crowded festive events. They show by their actions what they really believe. If covid was really the existential threat they claim it is, they would act in kind

so what are the new regs? do the tourists now have to have a 7 day reservation at an approved hotel in which they are jailed until their 2nd test comes back neg? I was planning to go the the usa over xmas/NY but didnt due to having a hard time finding affordable flights I am glad I am not heading out of here now hello, phuket....

this is the fundamental principle of the financial industry, they dont create anything either, as the money flows through their channels, they take a slice no matter the direction, or profitability of the transaction for the user.

when a place requires a negative test to enter, I know I get a report from the pcr test done at a hospital/clinic. but how would I show the results from the rapid akt test? just take a picture of it?

that is because these bank guys get paid for being right. if the TAT guys had to face any penalties for their BS projections, we might be able to have some small amount of faith in them

this guy robbed her. I agree that it was a hate crime, he hated not having the money for his next drink or drug.

I am going to go oit on a limb and say the guy robbed her because he wanted money, and there was no racial or sexual or any of the other reasons being discussed by all the crimminal pysychology experts on here involved in his motivation.

she is lucky she went to NYC and not to koh tao In nyc she just got robbed. In kho tao she could end up dead

what could be considered a fair price has so many variables behind it based on the bar's style, area, rent, and affluence of the customers, amount of competition in the area, etc.

the problem is that TAT focuses on what they want, rather than what they can provide. Build it and they will come. But he cant help it, its just the thai mentality. I recently had a gf tell me that she wanted me to support her. I asked her what I would get in return upgrading her financial situation she said, you get me. I replied, but I already have you.... Silence and glares ensued...

"Noteworthy in the Phuket Sandbox revival this year was the fact that each tourist spent 70,000 baht, he said. " also noteworthy was the fact that they had to stay in higher cost approved hotels and pay for a few covid tests.

I think a better question might be which politician's family member has a company that does this

who exactly do they mean by "other arrivals who are fully vaccinated". I live in bkk and have booked to go to phuket over xmas and NY arriving after dec 16.

As a thai he will only repeat what someone else says first. If he went first then he might be wrong and lose face. Then if it turns out to be wrong he can blame the other guy...

so it was a case of catch and release, rather than a hunt...

the french developed perfume because their body odor was so pungent due to their lack of bathing

if there is anything that we have learned during this covid time around the world, its that nothing any government has done has halted the spread of the virus. by the time any variant is discovered, it's already spread too widely to be contained.

since the media/government has convinced the Thais that getting covid is akin to a death sentence, telling them not to panic over the latest variant is falling on deaf ears. My friend is a dentist in siam square and he told me today that 98% of the appointments this week have been cancelled by the patients.

"Hunt on for 783 Africans" interesting headline. Imagine if it was in a USA/European-based website/newspaper....
