I firmly believe, generally speaking, we are despised here now. I went out yesterday for lunch on my own, nothing fancy, and was looked at like I was filth, they didn't even want to serve me. I asked one woman very firmly 'what is wrong' in Thai, she never said anything of course, they never do. I really son't like living here much now, a racist pitful sweatbox. All the smiles are gone and the laid back way of life, and I'm not just blaming the people for that, what with Covid and this govt this country has changed so much now in the 21 years I've been here. But I AM stuck here for various reason, and I beat myself up about that almost daily. Well reason is "foreigners are to blame for bringing the virus to Thailand " . could write a list of adjectives to describe the thought processes in the country but mods would get upset!

Absolutely farcical. Will be something different tomorrow, and the day after that. That's Thai Governments tactics cause confusion then blame any negative outcome on a misunderstanding..

DavisH Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 1 hour ago, Surelynot said: Our only hope is that Thais freak out, refuse the vaccine and the junta are left with millions of vaccines on the shelf. AZ has an offical 6 month shelf life. So if they can muster 20M doses in a couple of months, they will panic and just vaccinate everyone who wants one. Many Thais seem hesitant at this stage. Daily deaths in the hundreds may change their minds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnydrops Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 There are many in my village that won't take the shot out of fear. I am sure my mother in law won't unless a monk comes and throws some holy water and paints something over the door of the clinic. Like I said in an early post, they have started playing a tape over the village speakers trying to convince people to have it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavisH Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Just now, Surelynot said: OMG....just thought....surely not...........they might sell them abroad instead!!!! That was meant to be the plan. I think. Which is strange - sell it to foreigners overseas before they sell it to foreigners in Thailand. That would be very strange logic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said yes for me, asked if I could register my wife( who also goes there for her medical) and was told no. She is only 53 so must wait. proper medical ethics. Based on health risk, not nationality. Shhh. Posts like this are not popular here! Most people prefer a good moan. 4 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a possibility. In my wife's home village, nobody wants the Sinovac. My wife says, "I need good one." I've told her that I would pay for her and her 85 year old plus parents to get Moderna but that they should get a vaccine at any rate. Then, I said no more. Telling the people in the village what to do can end up at cross purposes and even be dangerous. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind boggling how foreigners are just a tad above Homeless and Tramps, although I have met quite a few Thai tramps in bars over the years whom I actually was ok with. So do Thai mass murderers and kiddy rapists and convicted drug dealers go before us? Not talking about Thamanat even though he falls farther down the undesirable chain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
