sambum Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Is it coincidence that this "Leading Story" is running side by side with this one? :- "Thailand to reduce quarantine to 10 days" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geisha Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I think that the government must be totally oblivious to everything that is happening around the world. Otherwise they wouldn’t spout such rubbish daily. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mung Posted October 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2020 I hope the people of Thailand have used this as a wakeup call – as a nation, they need tourists to thrive and survive with longevity. One would hope that they would now begin to treat foreigners like people, and not as suspected criminals who need to be monitored like an aggressive form of cancer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SupermarineS6B Posted October 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2020 Oh dear, are we still peddling that little porky pie ?........ Tourism was on its way down years ago when the likes of "Big Joke" took over under the blessing of the individuals calling themselves the government. Thailands tourism problems and hence a lot of the problems within the country stem from " We all know who" and until that lot's gone and borders are opened up to all tourists, not just the Chinese pipe dream currently being touted by the shiny button mob, then Thailand and its people are heading towards a brick wall........ It's all over the internet and Youtube everyday now, and if anyone can't see what's coming then they're bonkers...... Just the truth........ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then back on the plane and same scenario in Phuket before back to bangkok for dinner ! ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's about the only boost to the economy he's capable of creating. Yep , perhaps that is the cunning plan ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freigeist365 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 No!!!! Really??? I am shocked!!!!

Come on - can't be THAT bad, no??? Stupid (deleted) (deleted) (deleted) (deleted) at the helm of this madhouse of a country... ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rucker4012 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Still don't understand why visa holders here with homes & family aren't allowed back in. Mops59 and Deli's comments have never been answered by govt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmitch Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 If he is taken into Kamala, Patong, Karon and Kata he might see the extent of the problem here. If he goes for a couple of meetings in Phuket Town then he won't. Let's see what happens. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who have apartments, money in the bank, those who spend money on golf courses, in restaurants, need taxis and tuktuks, go shopping, etc. OA and OX can come in but O is still ignores, refused, etc. Some O can come. Depending on the type of visa. UK embassy has approved the return of non O retirement visa unexpired. With conditions. I know where you are coming from. I have a non immigration O retirement still valid until March 2021. But cannot use it from Australia. I'm now applying for the OA retirement, plus all the costs and quarantine. To get back to Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivingNThailand Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 I sincerely hope that General Prayut takes a tour of devastated Patong, Kata Karon. It's in shambles. And doesn't stay up in a fancy Mai Khao in a 4-5 star hotel the whole time he is in Phuket. These people need HELP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
