Bet that wasn't mentioned in the biased poll ! When will Thai Airways start flying again ? Or will they get sold off ? Highly unlikely that Thai Airways would attract a buyer with there present management . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be in for a wait, noticed THAI advertising business class fares to Paris the other day at 67000baht ONE WAY as a special offer????, more than what I paid for a Business class return to the same place on Air France. They might need to improve their restructuring somewhat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So 1,600 can voice the opinion of 90% of the population... yeah okay. Last I heard from most of the Thais I know, they are all waiting for their inoculations BEFORE they want to see any foreigners near them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UbonEagle Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Finally they are seeing thru the govt and media fear and loathing campaign, proper 2nd wave slowly being reigned in and the sky hasn't fallen in... There are multiple commonsense measures that can help facilitate the return of OS traveller's. Momentum is gathering now, and it'll be the peer pressure of their competitor neighbors like Vietnam beating them to the punch that'll get them off there <deleted> and rolling out the welcome mat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When can I go to the hospital and pay my fair share and become vaccinated? In Ireland (Not North) they are vaccinating the over 75’s now .. They must be on to the over 21’s in Thailand then .. Did they dilute the 500k units they bought off China .. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duckingand Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 only 1,600? Surely no sensible conclusions can be drawn from this. In a population of 60+ million surely you need to ask at least 16,000, probably 160,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM Dad Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I personally only know ONE person who has been vaccinated, a senior doctor friend who as a major hospital director was told he had to take the Chinese vaccine, Sinovac, to set an example for his staff. He said he would have preferred a different vaccine, but he had no choice. When are vaccines going to be available to the general public, and more importantly, when are more trustworthy and effective vaccines like Pfizer and Moderna going to be available?

connda Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 7 hours ago, webfact said: More than 90% of the population of Thailand want to see the country opened up to foreign tourists. A month ago it was 180 degrees different. Sounds like the news media has been given marching orders by the TAT and other officials to start spreading Hopium. I asked my wife about this. Her take is the same take she has had since foreigners were locked out. Thais in general (including her) don't want to see the borders reopened until Covid has been declared eradicated and the "pandemic" is officially declared as ended. So, I'm just going to call "bunk" on that poll. Yeah, Lies, Da*med lies, and Statistics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExpatOne Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Run the same poll in non tourist areas and you’ll get widely different results. This is simply to push the social proof thought of “others” thinking the other way as a majority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DjSilver Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Thailand shouldn't open up until dual pricing is stoped. Thai people have to pay and the punishment have to feel for them. Thai people now just want Thailand to open so they can scam more foreigners. I is good that Thailand is closed so the economy is getting a big hit and also so that Thai people learns a lession not to scam foreigners. But, I think Thailand can be close at least another year so the impact and lession is hard and good enough. Right now, it's not enough yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blumpie Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Oh wow look at reality sinking into the brain matter. Make no mistake, there will be far less tourism than any Thai could ever hope for this year too. The pain has only just started. Vaccines will help, or I hope it will. Good luck - we all need it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
