  • A swab test to visit KSR? Are they having a laugh? Even if I wanted to go there (which I don't) I'd simply turn around and spend my money elsewhere. Hopefully everyone does the same thing and they dro

  • Amazing Thailand. You don't disappoint with the ever more ridiculous. If you come here as a tourist you probably do need an ambulance, but the destination should be the mental hospital.

    Seems to me that AN has become a real laugh a minute forum. Every time I read it something even more ridiculous has been reported. Never mind, we all need to laugh about something these gloomy da

They have lost the plot ! Already done 2-3 swabs to get into Thailand, rate their going you’ll be swabbed 10 times a day, and they certainly won’t be getting my personal details off my vaccination certificate (such as full name and DOB), unless government official.

 

I hear Cambodia as of 15 Nov - no VOE/Thai Pass, no PCR test, no insurance ,only rapid test on arrival, Thailand May lose a lot of business to other countries with less complicated entry

If foreigners have been vaccinated six months ago they will have to take a 100 baht swab test and wait.

 

An ambulance is on hand to take them away if they turn out to be positive. 

Safety precautions like that will surely get hordes of foreigners visiting Khaosan Road...????

Always Thais are anticipating to new business opportunity's ...... now just wait for the copy cats all over Thailand .....

another pro-active measure to stimulate tourism.

 

Go through all hoops to gain entry to the country.

 

if you are sucessful in making  it, we just want to ensure you dont have any peace of mind while visiting any 'restaurants that can sell alcohol'!

That's the way how to destroy more tourist places.

Not to forget the dual pricing places.

Thailand is not ready, yet.

This is extremely racist.

 

Btw where's my moderna vaccine fully paid back in April?

wasnt that another donation to the medical industry that lost revenue from being able to rip  'medical tourists'?

How about Thai.

So they need to so the Same Test?

I don't think so.

If some Friends ask me to travel to Thailand, I will Not recommend.

No problem to avoid KSR.

 

But this is an alarm about the new trend: one injection every 6 months, twice per year, this will be mandatory if you want to travel.

Thai media reported that the traders' association at Khao San Road were adopting their own measures to fulfil the requirements of the latest Covid protocols called "Thai Stop Covid Plus".

Welcome to the land of sharks, no doubt the government will quash this as quick as they did with private buses refusing farangs to board earlier on when Covid introduced to Thailand by the Chinese.

 

Well at least we hope they will, and good luck to the museum with farang tourists visiting.......idiots !

Don’t give them ideas another scam to get 60 baht per person for a 40 baht test.

Are they kidding? This is pure discrimination.  How about Thai people with older vaccines? What a country! This will definitely not help the tourism sector.

36 three week holidays here and now lived here for 8 year's, if this was the way I was treated on my first visit to Thailand it would have most certainly been my last.

Money number one, rip off tourists today, don't worry about tomorrow.

why only foreigners 

Because covid infects only foreigners...... [sarcasm off]  

It is pure discrimination like their dual pricing system.

Won't be returning there if that is still enforced if and when I return, their loss. Keep going with the self-inflicted destruction.

so they randomly stop forigner on ko sarn and have them show them thier vacc card and if 6 months old then they have to do swab?   one year of moderna is better than 1 month of sinovac?

i was their yesterday only about 5 foriegners thier . should be easy to track them down.   is the ambulance cruising around ko sarn right now?

May the businesses wither and close by their own hand.

It's seems there is no limit to the hostility and vengeance the junta has for its kicking boy KSR. They already destroyed it long before the pandemic, now its just a macabre spectacle, beating a dead body, unstated reference intended

How do you think on crowded places that will help when they all flock together waiting for 15 minutes ......  without enough distance?  What a joke ! The guy that cames up with this idea must be completely ..........?

"Idiots", who? Those who make the rules, or the ones who pay to come for a holiday, to a place like Thailand?

I was just reading another main thread about plans for Thailand’s education system. This seems to reveal much about what it produces,but maybe a bigger problem lies with the raw material it has to work with. The Thai Thick Gene ?
