Canadian hitmen scoff at these "controls". thailand needs to get back to suckling at the teat of the foreign tourist. They might keep a pre-departure COVID negative test, vaccination proof and insurance in place. All the other stuff: Day 1 & DAY 5, Thaialnd Pass/Test&Go/QR, will be dropped. Insurance will be dropped a bit farther out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the green light Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 this new scheme is like beating a dead horse. It won't matter They do not need to improve the time because they will not be a lot of demand for this system. Just imagine a happy traveler to Thailand will need to take 3 PCR test and wait 5 days for the result. If any of the test detected to be positive, be assured you will be dragged to the hospital for 7 days at a cost of Bht10,000/day... This happy traveler has burnt already 12 days of his vacation between quarantine and hospital .What beach can he enjoy ? and no honey to be with for the night? I would love to see his face if he is still smiling. why would any visitor will go through this hassle .? why people insists on visiting Thailand under these circumstances.? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spilornis Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Singapore is going down to one rapid test on arrival for vaccinated travellers from 21 Feb. No quarantine https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/transport/askst-what-are-the-latest-land-sea-and-air-border-measures-do-i-still-need-to-take-covid-19-pcr-tests-to-travel 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the green light Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 One must read between the line for going to Thailand. 1.Pre-departure PCR test--->OK no problem 2. PCR test on arrival -NO need for vaccinated visitor. only an antigen test is enough 3. Insurance_ useless - it does not cover quarantine in a hospital but just medical treatment. so if you pay Bht 10,000 / day --you won't get it back. added to the cost = $300 ins + hospital $2,100 4. No need any testing after 5 days 5. App to track you....OK if there is no test.. any scheme set up will work for people returning to Thailand or planning to stay for more than 60 days. Otherwise it is not worth it to visit Thailand now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main requirements include: acceptable proof of vaccination, valid return tickets, passport valid for at least six months, and insurance with a minimum coverage of USD 35,000.00 And even this vaccin bs has to get rid of the list. What about people who had their shots about 4/ months ago? The vaccin will not have its function anymore. Then ask for a booster over and over again? Dont think that will work. A test must be enough if they stay in the scared mode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post internationalism Posted February 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2022 As we speak another data leak from thailand pass. This time spoofed email is not trojan, but disclosure of personal info. Somehow they cant connect stolen emails to names. This is already a third email to my box within 10 days. They come to my box, not to spam folder, as I have already got emails from the real true thailand pass so gmail still doesnt recognise it as spam. "Th system noticed some problems in the documents you submitted to the embassy You should correct some information so that you are not held responsible by the government Please reply to this message and write the following information Your full name Date of birth Last 4 digits of the passport We apologize for any inconvenience caused Best regards, THA PASS". possible that is a leak which richard barrow referred to yesterday and was mentioned here earlier. thai government cant protect personal data being constantly leaked to criminals. some suspect its an inside job. Some IT guy selling all data 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short Term Visitors (STV) have some extra requirements too. https://safetravel.ica.gov.sg/vtl/travel-checklist Quite a lengthy checklist. [Short Term Visitors] Purchase travel insurance with a minimum coverage of S$30,000 against COVID-19 related medical charges. Travellers may be insured with a Singapore or overseas-based insurer. For the list of available travel insurance products offered in Singapore It always sounds so easy in other countries, until you peek under the covers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only need to be fully Vaccinated. Come on Thailand get with the program. For the fully-vaccinated, there's been no quarantine in Canada since at least October, 2021, and only a pre-flight PCR test to show. In Toronto, masks were optional on the street, with most people not wearing any. But starting Feb. 28, 2022, no PCR tests needed, only an antigen test 24 hours before your initial flight. So in short, arrive in Canada and carry on life. Did you hear that Thailand? Edited February 17, 2022 by Kaoboi Bebobp 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you believe Thailand's figures on anything? Their pure fantasy. You only have to look at the daily testing cases reported versus what's really going on. Yet you come on the forum cheerleading everyday. Thailand don't even have 30% of their population boosted.
