mania

This is like Disneyland saying this year we will charge more per entry to build a new ride which you will then have the privilege of paying to ride next time ( of course at a 2x locals rate) Even though you paid to develop the ride! ????

So first off they require 10k insurance for Covid Most folks buy travel insurance anyway but If this is as they say to pay for health emergencies for those unable to pay Should the customers/travelers not therefore get a policy of sorts? Not unlike the old days when they sold those cheap policies from vending machines at airports before you got on the plane I mean if your selling forcing insurance on travelers should we not have the policy in hand in case of emergency? Or do we lay in some hospital purgatory while the wheels of this govt grind out an thumbs up or down answer?? Last but not least, being directed to yet another screen to pay? This is obviously to get that money to the trough that it is supposed to go directly to but, Have they not realized not many want a credit card to be used on a likely less than secure transaction Not to mention they are pushing their luck asking airlines eventually to jump thru yet another hoop. I think airlines like British Airways will not be returning too soon

Sorry to hear this I 70's is not sadly very old I felt the same about my Thai MIL she was really special

Hear Hear ???? Also folks like us that actually own a home & have family there as we are still not willing to go thru the hassles & will wait hoping normal will eventually return Also to be honest after two years away & enjoying real freedoms here of no masks (especially during summer) & almost negligible covid results we are not in a hurry. The village our home is in actually has Covid really flashing thru it right now with a choice of village/community provided 10 day quarantine or home if you want. I guess many have large families are opting for the community center quarantine Good news tho is they are vaccinated & pretty much all have only head symptoms & easily get thru it

Why ask why TIT right? But no I really wonder why? In a country with the 2nd highest death rate on the roads in the WORLD why? I mean if they had a low road death rate maybe yeah they could talk about it but instead they have terrible drivers & want to allow them to go 120kph/75mph down the road?

I have gotten these many times except in out case US/Thai dual What we have had to show is To visit as a spouse of a Thai nationality, - A copy of a valid and effective marriage certificate. - A copy of Thai passport /or Thai I.D. of the spouse. - A letter from the spouse verifying that the applicant and the spouse are still married and the purpose to visit Thailand. Also usually our flight info & proof of a small amount of $ in US bank ($700 per person or $1500 per family)

Literal use of "Hit Man" Kidding aside the penalty should be the once recovered Danish husband gets to hit the black widow wife with a truck

Hear Hear ! ????????????

It seems the hospitality industry does not realize how badly the Thai population is hurting income wise

A great new slogan to further the tourism Don't catch crabs in Thailand or legal action possible ????

555 they think they left on vacation ????

Someone just needs to put a muzzle on this cement worker>Health Minister<sic> Every time the CCSA or Prayut push for reopening he needs to once again make himself relevant by opening his mouth & removing all doubt that he is a maybe he is not a nimrod yet he is & once again will throw Thailand's possibility of tourist bookings out the window Imagine the news the other day that test on arrival was scraped & all that is needed was insurance & proof of vax Folks sigh & consider booking a trip to Thailand Now this guy comes forward with maybe this & maybe that & tourist sigh again & say nah, not yet Thailand still does not know <deleted> it wants Because every time one part of this sorry excuse for a govt states a new rule another part comes forward with yet another version. Do they not realize how ignorant they all look? Right hand, left hand all part of the same moronic excuse for a govt

I believe they said that site will not be update functional till May 1st (Which I know is dumb right?)

Better than before but as others have said not quite ripe yet. Vacations are preferably as stress free as possible. Too much up front nonsense with Thai Pass & Insurance (covid specific) is still a speed bump About insurance I think most of us ( I know I do) have travelers insurance. But this covid specific policy is just an added hassle Last but not least..."Under Vaccinated" That is a scary loop hole for sure if not clearly spelled out My wife had 2x Pfizer & plans no more no boosters etc I had 1x J&J & also plan no more If that constitutes under vaccinated then a non starter for us. Let us know clearly do we now need a pre-flight PCR?

What is this an attempt at reverse psychology as an excuse for ignorance? 555 Truth is title should read Why are some Thai's so lacking in common education to not know calling any race a name is racist? Why are some Thai's so rude/ lacking in memory to not use a persons name if they knew it? Lastly Thai's with their fragile ego/thin skin should be the last to ask why anyone is offended by anything ???? Thai men & women have been known to cut off partners body parts or worse if they feel offended by someone.

Actually they are purposely posting this as another fearmongering excuse to keep the country locked down till after the next stolen election

Yup that is the truth Then they post topics and say they use to live in mansions in western civilizations but it was boring 555 Truth is Hotel California is popular in Thailand for good reason.... they can check out anytime they like but they can never leave

Yes of course! Would be great for places like Hawaii too that never had disease & pestilence till the falangs arrived But like Thailand it is far too late for such things You would easier fit a camel thru the eye of a needle ???? Pandora's box was opened long ago for Thailand You think the Thai people want to go back to their culture without the money of what foreigners invest & spend in Thailand? It is a nice thought but not possible nor wanted by the Thai people themselves

Sorry Thailand nobody cares. Your in the rear view mirror of most that use to travel & vacation there You are no longer relevant as a destination to spend quality time in One thing many failed states like you forgot is it takes time to reinflate a economy like an accordion the same as your tourist industry will now see in the next few years. Travelers in fact like to plan way in advance & get the best prices on tickets etc & none will wait till say late June to see if they can travel to Thailand in July None except maybe those you prefer didn't come, The Mongers Although they in reality have been your bread & butter most of your existence even since Vietnam war times when you were just a R&R spot for horny tired soldiers That aside Anyway good luck Thailand but it is said that your sorry excuse for a government/leadership is a couple tin soldiers masquerading as Prime minister+ assistants & a ex-concrete worker masquerading as a Health Minister

What is most amazing about the illustrious Anutin is the forward seeing ability of his crystal ball. Here it is mid April yet he can see all the way into July 1st 2022 Must be all the concrete dust from his previous job

Yeah yeah what ever...Meanwhile we all were having a nice day watching Paris Roubaix yesterday...freely ???? Thailand & Prudent hahah yeah ok BTW: actual Euro stats here...Note green arrows mean falling not rising https://graphics.reuters.com/world-coronavirus-tracker-and-maps/regions/europe/ All your seeing in Thailand is a choke of freedoms till next election is stolen...nothing more Thailand will fling open right after the Junta has stolen another fake election

Little does this nimrod know we had one of his crews decoder rings & already knew this long ago We also knew nothing would change until P&P steal another election after which Thailand will suddenly?throw open its doors once again as the swine will need more feeding at the public trough which is getting dangerously low due to lack of income/tax revenues

Actually it is amongst Thai's because the elephant remark is sarcasm against Prayuth govt

They sent you a pic of speeder Send them a pic of 500 baht via postal all done ????

In some ways it is good. Because every time this dictatorship removes yet another right of the people with some lame excuse of safety yet allows swimming for instance or uses water canons to control protesting students (during worse delta covid time) they show who they are. Eventually the camels back will be broken & anarchy will break out. This junta may think it would go unnoticed by the world if they fired again on their own people in what ever guise they claim but I think not So long story short, Yes remove more & more freedoms till they get off the couch & take their country & freedoms back
