Popular Post ukrules Posted September 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2020 Little prediction here : Thailands entry restrictions will last for years. There is no end in sight. They're so scared of this that they will likely be one of the last countries to open up along with Australia, New Zealand and China. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revoke the joke of a charter 3. Hold a snap election 4. Get a democratically elected Government 5. Appoint some competent Ministers 6.

ChrisY1 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) Like almost everywhere else globally that relies on tourism, there is no quick fix! But giving orders is their only remedy. 150,000 tourists that are "supposedly" still here are now threatened with fines and gaol time...not exactly what impending international tourists want to hear.

brommers Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 And how pray does a bankrupt tourism business spring to life after Covid? By the time Prayut has decided that Covid is over the population will have no ability to recover because he has given billions away to people in idiotic schemes to stimulate domestic travel amongst a population with little desire to do so. Less than 9000 domestic flights were taken under his first discount scheme. How is that a success but he is proposing another round of similar discounts. Utter incompetence is his trademark and no one is listening to his rambling utterances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony125 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 They should have alowed everyone here on Tourist Visas, Visa Exempt, ect to get say 90 day issued Covid Visas as everyone already here is Covid free and could pay so they wouldn't have to go home. I am from US and would be scared silly if I had to fly back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
