Yes, you are correct, and I was wrong to infer they'd use the existing facility. That said, my concern was less location-based, and more humanitarian-based.

But it would seem that they did send vaccine to Australia back in April which again is contradictory and a damn lie again. Exactly, but they are quite happy to accept my taxes i still pay to the UK to fund the NHS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australian Permanent Residents are residents of Australia, pay taxes in Australia on all applicable income until retirement age, when they then become eligible for the Australian Aged Pension and they also pay and participate fully in the Australian Medicare Scheme (Australian Health Scheme) whilst employed. The Australian Embassy has discriminated against their own Permanent Residents by not including them in the roll out. When they say Aust Nationals do they only mean citizens? If so, they should at least make this clear. I agree, Aust doesn't treat it's permanent residents well. With some deported or refused entry despite never being charged with a crime.

Popular Post DUNROAMIN Posted July 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2021 Hi, I am an Australian living in Isaan country. I see this as a political stunt by our Embassy. I see this message at 8 am today. If I register I have to get to Bankok tonight for a maybe jab tomorrow. Out of the question for me and I suspect all other Ozzies living in Isaan country. Good luck to those living in Bangkok, if they actually get this info. I am going to send a message to the Embassy telling my thoughts on this matter. I suggest all Ozzies do the same. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Saltire Posted July 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) This is all just smoke and mirrors to pretend they, the various embassies and the Thai government, are doing something good for their citizens. I bet the 'limited' number will be very low, in the hundreds, but the events unfolding will make good PR. Good luck to all who manage to get jabbed, but I for one have no intention of visiting the covid epicenter from afar. Go for a vaccine, come back with covid, not to mention the impending provincial travel restrictions. Thanks but no thanks.

jack7106 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I have registered approximately 40 minutes ago and now I’m questioning why I have done so. I have just read this article which relates to the Astrazeneca vaccine. I am aged 54 and this article indicates that you should be over 60 to receive this vaccine. Begs the question of whether I should turn up or not???????????????????????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Australian Embassy has discriminated against their own Permanent Residents by not including them in the roll out. This to me is the short comings of the Australian Embassy, if you all don't know that they don't give a rats about you being an expat, then you do now, i.e. your a burden living off of them, regardless whether you paid taxes all of your life and possibly still are as I have for the last 5 years, in other words our use by dates were up as soon as we left, but I knew when I left that I would do the same as I did when I was there, i.e. not rely on them until I reach the old age pension age, then I will put my hand out and say, cough up, it's my time, although I don't need to rely on them by claiming the old age pension, but I will as it's my right. Also as mentioned in other posts, I forwent the AZ shot on 7 June, my decision and have booked myself in for the Moderna shot, just have to do what everyone is has been doing since the pandemic, i.e. continue to social distance, wear a mask and keep those hands clean, suffice to say I do not looking at Covid-19 as a death wish as it's survival rate is higher than it's death rate by miles........... I believe you would have a good argument and would push the envelope so to speak: As a permanent resident of Australia, you generally can: remain in Australia indefinitely. work and study in Australia. enrol in Australia's national health scheme, Medicare. apply for bank loans to buy property. sponsor eligible relatives for permanent residence. apply for Australian citizenship, if eligible.
