Megasin1 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Fed up with making fake watches (or not being able to sell many now) it is good to see that the imitation market in Thailand is still strong and they are now producing a Thai "Trump". He may not have his own nuclear button to press, but his personal aversion to face masks and his ability to make stupid remarks is coming on in leaps and bounds. The unfortunate thing is that when you are eventually sitting at a bar you will be approached by hawkers with a very limited array of goods ????

natway09 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I agree that Thailand is ready, ,,,,,the majority of the world is not. You really think that uncontrolled planeloads from Europe. USA, UK, Indonesia, India & China will bring anything other than heartache at this time ??? Get the economy started ??? Please tell the goof that the economy is ticking along without tourism pretty well 23 Billion $ exports last month Tourism is the cream . The big boys who have invested heavily in Hotels & that infrastructure are the ones screaming. The staff are hurting & the Government only throws crumbs. Some may just have to suffer the indignity of working in a factory for a a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condo's sitting around built but with no buyers, get one and you get a visa. people sitting around out of work that they can't afford to keep paying, open up a business. Banks that are running out of cash.... all they want are the well heeled to come in and save the day and bail Thailand out of the mire it's managed to slip into but putting millions into a Thai account. People of the world have seen what scams Thailand are up to, trying to lure in investors who will get very little return on their investments, let alone their names on the ownership. So many other better options in the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But today we have new lockdown in Holland for 4 weeks. Why do some countries not follow the advice of the WHO? They also said that the deadly rate of corona is 0.13% which is the same as a normal virus..... So who's crazy now? Because the WHO has been wrong on almost everything concerning the virus which is why the US pulled out of that organization. The WHO is in bed with China and protected them when it came out that China released it. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are millions of sexually active/frustrated men around the world chomping at the bit to come here. Been talking with several of my friends back home dating 60 year old ladies who disgust them, but it is the only option. So glad I am here and not there. No major Covid, young sexy girls, and inexpensive golf. Livin the dream. ???? Tell them there are young ladies in Cambodia/Vietnam/Philippines equally eager to meet them. Thailand isn't the only country catering to frustrated white guys. And those countries actually pretend to like Caucasian men.

patman30 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 best thing they can do, is legalize cannabis USE for everyone and open back up to tourists no need for silly requirements as buying condos or 3m deposits or min 90 days people would not even care if they had to quarantine and most would then stay as long as possible they could even control the supply and tax the sh!t out of it the tourists that would come would not care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThailandRyan Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Looks like Thailand is about to go down the Rabbit hole. Anutin must have already gone after the white rabbit, and found the little pill that would make him big, but I do believe the Caterpillar and him have been smoking a few bowels of the good ganja. Waiting to see who turns out to be the Mad hatter during this upcoming tea party. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
