Just look at the statistics of where the big clusters are and stop being in denial. I dread July 1st when the hordes of new farangs descend on Phuket as they inevitably will do when it re-opens.

If so, the only thing new learned is that his command of English is particularly poor. 17 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple supply and demand . When something like 80% of the hotels have closed down , prices have to go up. Days of 500 baht rooms are over once tourist return. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Kerryd Posted May 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2021 Last January, Canada instituted a requirement for arrivals to have to produce a "negative covid-19" test upon arriving. Within days, they were arresting people who arrived with forged/fake documents. And those were just the ones they caught. (Never mind the 10s of thousands they allowed to arrive without any testing at all if they came from countries that didn't have the ability to do the tests. How's that for Liberal logic ? If you come from England, Germany, Norway, France (for example) you have to have a negative test result or be denied entrance. If you come from Haiti, Nigeria, Lebanon, Sri Lanka or Bangladesh (for example) then you don't need a test result. (This was highlighted in the press a few months ago after a third aircraft from Haiti arrived with so many infected people that the Health authorities declared everyone on the flight (passengers and crew) to be infected.) (Not to mention that a large number of people who were supposed to go to a "quarantine hotel" simply didn't bother going at all !) 9 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wasabi Posted May 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2021 (edited) Thank God he wrote that letter. We can all rest easy now that the covid situation has been addressed. For a moment I thought the problem was they hadn't ordered enough vaccines nor had a plan to inoculate people with the feeble amount they already have.

Popular Post kwak250 Posted May 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2021 many foreigners who recently live in Phuket infected by the COVID-19 disease. This situation is considered a serious case which leads to sorrowfulness of the province.. Sorrowfulness of the province. This guy needs a really good shake. Fair play one thing i have learnt here is that Thailand is the hub of many things. They are the best at passing blame hands down its as though they can't ever say their own people could cause anything. Even the Reporter said the poor American guy who got hit head on by a Thai yes Thai person trying to overtake a truck on the wrong side of the road in a shi7box underpowered Mitsu 6 up was said to have been riding very fast. So what if he was going 80-100 he didnt expect some twa7 coming at him on the wrong side of the road. Forking idiots here probably the driver will only get a fine. Mind you the test here isnt hard i reckon my pet Dachshund Colin could get through it after a couple of attempts. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Old Croc Posted May 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2021 4 hours ago, webfact said: The letter (verbatim) in full reads You need to open the link to get the full letter. "Many cases of COVID-19 infections have derived from any party organizing, thus, Phuket province seeks cooperation from General Consuls and Honorary consuls in Phuket to monitor and inform or advice your own citizens avoiding to gather in large group to hold or involve in any types of parties which violate the Order of Phuket Province. Any persons who violate or fail to comply with Phuket regulations will be fined or receive a jail sentence, or both." I'm a little confused - who organised and ran those big parties that started the third wave, foreigners or Thais? Have those people been prosecuted? 9 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
