  1. And many have returned to those provinces as there is no work for them now. The reality is that no one knows the real numbers and it suites the government to fudge them. I am only quoting Reuters numbers. I believe them more then the government. My message still stands - old people before third jabs/educators/children.
  2. 'Bangkok was allocated a third of Thailand’s vaccine supply when the country’s mass rollout began in June, despite having only a tenth of the population,' 'Thailand has fully vaccinated 6.7% of an estimated 10.9 million people 60 and older.' 'people aged 60 and over have accounted for at least 62% of deaths in Thailand' The numbers are much higher if you include the over 50's (CTN News 1/9/2021) Come on Thailand - vaccinate the people that brought you into the world. You would not be here if not for them.
  3. I thought that all 'targetted' groups had already been vaccinated? The Government and their friends and families. The senior army officers and their friends and families The senior police and their friends and families Hi So's and their friends and families. Owners of big businesses and their friends and families. All front line workers including some 'imposters'. Have I missed anyone out? So this is a booster jab for them all?
  4. As always with these political photo ops - no social distancing. Do as I say - not as I do. ????
  5. You might also want to try these. I have used the Dogfather and he is very good, but the last that I heard was that he had some health problems. Hopefully he is over them. Two more from duckduckgo...... https://www.ilasworld.com/ https://www.facebook.com/NannyPets.KohSamui
  6. Annual. I have a similar policy. That price for me was in 2020. Same price 2021.
  7. Quite a few reasons really. I bought a rai of land just over 20 years ago. Sold off 400 sq. meters and that money more than covered my initial outlay plus the houses that I built. Then - live rent free for those 20 years. Seemed like a good deal to me.
  8. I never take my passport with me. Just a Thai DL. Always accepted. Remember though that there are lots of foreigners here that happily hand their passport over to back street motorbike rental places.
  9. Bear in mind that hotels have been making huge losses with zero guests. In this situation I would count any + sign at the end of the month as a win. Fed up of - signs.
  10. Foreigners have been ignoring the test results for a while now. I know a number of people who have self-tested positive (ATK) and just stayed at home. They were showing mild symptoms and even managed to pass it on to family members.
  11. That is an interesting one. Many times papers print that something is free for everyone, but as always - the devil is in the detail. Free for Thais - 100% . Free for people in the SS scheme - 100% Free for people with Covid insurance - probably. Free for migrant workers and expats ??? By the way - the hotel quarantine is not Covid treatment. That is the killer for everyone.
  12. Not quite 'all year'. Since July for three months and whilst in the middle of an epidemic. Not great numbers yet - but better than zero.
  13. Not if you include the ATK test results. There are more than 7,000 of them today. the government is fudging the numbers. Only 'happy happy' news allowed!
  14. I was on the 08.00 shift at Bangkok Samui. Arrived at 07.45 and was number 94 in the queue. A few people from the 09.00 shift were there before me. ???? They did not start vaccinations until 09.00 so I was done by about 09.15. Process was quick once they started.
  15. A brilliant scheme. 'Government for Dummies' springs to mind. Chapter one - military coup Chapter two - how to control the masses. Brainwash the young. Old folks dying for lack of Covid vaccine and the poor are all spaced out on kratom and marijuana.
