Drop the quarantine and I am back on the next flight, It's very hard being away from my son and family over there but to sit out two weeks jail and pay high prices to do so puts me off.

I work hard while I am away to save and then spend of which I and many other long stay residents do.

Only answer I can see is test just before you leave to re-enter and then test at the airport if you are still covid free you should be let to leave and download the tracking app, And also self quarantine at home.

Maybe they should consider 3 0r 4 more years of closed borders!

After that, turn Patong or Khao Lak or Aonang into Historical Parks, like Sukothai!

People can go and marvel at the former glory of the "tourist destination" Thailand

The Thai Airways announcement on holiday flights for a number of nations is interesting in that it singles out China from the other nations. I wonder if China is actually going to get "more" than others on the holidays flights list or its a quirky press release.

I will list it separately in case its not allowed to be posted.....
