Are the restrictions for entering Surin the same as Buriram?

[bbabythai]

I just read this post about how strict it is to enter Buriram. 

 

What about neighbouring Surin? I know its a different province but has anyone recently entered or do you know the rules to enter Surin?

thanks

so why is the guy in the buriram post being put through the 3rd degree/

My b/f drives regularly from south Surin to south Buriram and back without difficulty. (If there were unusual police checks or health/CV/vax checks he would have mentioned to me.)

Where does he say he was put through the 3rd degree?

i think the issue is bangkok to surin/buriram rather than surin to buriram or vice versa.  that's only a guess, no personal experience.  i'm planning to travel bangkok to buriram soon and still not sure if i'm going to fly both ways or pay a car service to drive me to buriram and fly back.  a friend in buriram came from lopburi to buriram two weeks ago and was told to isolate at home by the boss of the moo baan (plus take a test) but it isn't a strict isolation.  more of an honor system thing.

Do we have to quarantine 14 days upon arrival  if we travel to Kap Cheung in Surin province from Pattaya Chonburi, that still is classified as a dark red zone. Please no guesses , only hard facts, many thank's in advance... What I understand there are no problem to entering the province , we just don't have the time for quarantine , (Both of us is fully vaccinated)

Doh. The link never mensions '3rd degree'. You made up that quote. If you're gonna quote something then please do it as it is written and not something that is floating about inside your head.

My understanding  of the phrase "3rd degree" fits well with the hassles the gentleman in question faced when arriving in Buriram.

 

Also, the post here that mentioned "3rd degree" didn't quote anything. Just referred to a post.

So in your opinion and 'bbythai' the person was tortured to get into Surin?

 The actual third degree is a cruel interrogation technique—essentially torture

That never happened and was never indicated.

I think you'll find "3rd degree" is a figure of speech. The meaning being something that was drawn out and likely more difficult and tedious than needed.

 

Some things don't have to be taken literally. As in your quote is says the " actual" 3rd degree.

 

Imagine is mole hills really were mountains. ????????????????

What does 3rd degree mean?

The third degree is an intense, harsh way to question a suspect. ... It's very common for people to joke about the third degree, using it to mean "lots of questions" or "too much curiosity." The actual third degree is a cruel interrogation technique—essentially torture.

Well, like everything in Thailand you rarely get clear answers. Actually, in Thailand anything is possible. Answers come like that ball in the pinball machine. Next time I go to Surin, I'm planning to stay 14 days anyways but the quarantine stuff will probably be more lax then.
