But what would the final score have been if that goal had been disallowed?

I watched the match in a German bar.....and still can't believe we actually won.

Tourism will never be the same.  Time to figure out how to make a living the way it's going to be for a long, long time.  The Phuket Sandbox is a good start.  A Pattaya Sandbox is a logical next step.  Bangkok?  That's a mess.

 

So you're saying that tourism forever will be changed? For 5 years, 10 years, 100 years? Forever is a long time. It will probably be 2-3 years before this pandemic is forgotten and all restrictions go away, and the mass tourism will again start to destroy the country.

They said the same after 9/11.  Travel hasn't been the same since then.  But the industry learned to thrive in a new normal.

I hope they will drastically increase anti-covid measures to domestic phuket arrivals because the way they are now (1 negative test within 3 days) is absolutely not enough to protect the sandbox success.

After Mass vaccinations eh?

Amen.

The Church always finds a way....

What a laff. Thailand still fancies itself in the same league as New Zealand. Covid numbers approaching 10k a day. Hospitals at breaking point. Sinovac a fail with more Sinovac as the continuing answer for Thailand WHEN it arrives. JP Morgan politely refers to it as a failed state.

 

TV really needs to stop posting this rubbish. When will this happen in reality? No, really...2023 or 24.

I doubt this entirely. Three years Thailand will still be suffering the direct pain. 

 

International tourism for many reasons will die.

Mass vaccination???? When does this start???

I don't think they know what it means. Could there be some misinterpretation?
I don't see anything stated for vaccinations at the masses held at the local churches,

so they fail on both interpretations that come to mind.

 

Thailand needs a vaccination miracle to save a lot of deaths that are likely to occur due to the incompetence in the procurement and rollout of vaccines.

Perhaps people may get more hope or solace by going to church (or the temple) to pray for such a miracle, rather than listening to the day by day hype being fed to the media.
