In other words. A good idea today is better than the perfect idea tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you think they will let Australians escape fortress Australia? Apart from North Korea and Cuba, i think Australia is the only place holding their citizens captive.

hioctane Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Thailand should restart direct flights to the US. Americans can’t wait to travel. No restrictions like the UK or Australia. It is a huge market. I don’t understand why Thailand don’t target us more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try zero infections and 100% double dosed then have another go. Not 70% one-shot wonders, and 30% nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotchilli Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 20 hours ago, webfact said: Thai Rath also quoted a senior executive at Central who said that 85% of staff had been vaccinated creating a "herd immunity" that would inspire tourists to shop there. No-one wants the bad luck of running onto the 15% of staff who haven't been inoculated... what's wrong with 100% vaccinated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKDfella Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 I know that we all get bored hearing this but it seems these TAT people never get bored of spewing this stuff out. I cannot understand why they don't turn their energies to helping the people who need it, those that ave lost just about everything over the Covid situation. No they'd rather give the people false hopes with ridiculous schemes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post nobodysfriend Posted May 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2021 (edited) Just yesterday I saw a report of the future of tourism on a european TV channel . They asked a lot of people about their travel plans , now that the Covid stuation seems to be stabilizing a bit ... just 2% of the people asked , said that they will go for a holiday out of Europe , even with relaxed restrictions ... If Thailand wants to go come back to similar tourist levels as it once was , they need much more than just a ' Slogan ' . Better they focus a little more on the ' long time stayers ' who spend the money they earned abroad ... Relax the sometimes ridiculous immigration rules for the long time stayers who have no criminal record at least . I do not see the number of tourists come back to the 40 mio it once was , anytime soon ... Edited May 23, 2021 by nobodysfriend 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clivebaxter Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 (edited) Phuket is about as enticing as Skegness or Blackpool, they have a difficult job getting the place back up and running again. So, needs a bit more than a worn out slogan and over weight tattooed sex workers available once more. Edited May 23, 2021 by clivebaxter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailands the cat-house of Asia and it can't change as the government cannot offer them real employment. Single middle aged men especially have a high disposable income and so do younger 2 week millionaire's. This is where the money is at and they come in the millions. Take away sex tourism and they have no reason to be in Thailand. A perfect example was the Pattaya family resort, the next Miami slogan. Just nonsense. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
