DRD123 Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Get rid of all the mandates including wearing masks or Thailand will never recover economically. Just look to the countries that have removed mandates, their covid numbers and their economic numbers and there you will find the answers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you state 'doing quite well' testing only 25% of the populace ? You simply don't find what you refuse to look for ! Djibouti, Kyrgyzstan, libya, rwanda, Namibia, palastine, Gabon, Lebanon , Botswanna.............. ALL tested more per million that Thailand - you think those countries have better health care too ? Compare deaths to daily new cases with say Australia and Thailand's daily new cases are under reported by a factor of 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandeventer Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Call it what you like but people in my area are getting covid way too much. They are calling it Long Covid because even after the covid is dead inside of you the symptoms go on for months. It must be a new Chinese treat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then all kinds of Westerners come and yell out " We don't want Bill Gates' NWO, and we don't want a reset.

Testing data unless uniform & properly structured ( S. Korea / Sweden) is problematic & leads to fake or dishonest statistics like “ 3% of Cases Die” when it’s only 0.025% of total pop. Dying with 75% of those aged 75 +.with balance having Serious Conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be great for places like Hawaii too that never had disease & pestilence till the falangs arrived But like Thailand it is far too late for such things You would easier fit a camel thru the eye of a needle ???? Pandora's box was opened long ago for Thailand You think the Thai people want to go back to their culture without the money of what foreigners invest & spend in Thailand? It is a nice thought but not possible nor wanted by the Thai people themselves 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So people hurry up and get Vaccinated. Vaccination wont stop you getting it. Our house maid had it a while back so for a time she stayed home. When she came back I naturally asked how she had been with the virus. Her reply was I had a slight cough and that was about it. She has had all the jabs including the boosters. Vaccine will reduce the effects for sure but wont stop you getting it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bolded part. Thailand has built it's wealth and their ticket entry into the current century on the back of their hookers and that's physically speaking AND metaphorically speaking as well. Getting rid of prostitution by getting rid of the mongers and there you are left with a broken Kingdom that has nothing to offer, Thailand in itself is absolutely nothing special, in fact let's face it for once and all; Thailand is a dump, that attracts nothing but criminals, (ex)cons and dodgy characters, the entire Kingdom is a complete mess without it's tourism economy and it's women spreading their legs wide opened was the only incentive they could ever possibly offer. These days I rarely post here at all, why you may ask? Because Vietnam and Cambodia have caught up, the Thai incentive has sailed, the junta has effectively killed the golden goose. Even if they did a 180 degrees U-turn and all of a sudden allowed us foreigners an easy path to Thai citizenship, 10 years visas without the 90 days reports like criminals and also offered the possibility of legally owning land (think small land enough to build and own our homes), it wouldn't overturn, balance or even out all the damage they have done to their reputation. I for one, would never be able to TRUST a Thai ever again, I wouldn't think of returning to this dump ever, the incentive has sailed, they have shown their true colors, they can rot for all I care. Thailand elites have shown their disrespect, their zero gratitude attitude towards us, heck, they have zero gratitude towards their own kin, the average somchais who are the bottom of the crooked social ladder and of course, they have zero gratitude towards their hookers even though as I said above, they built their entire economy on (in?) their backs, bunch of xenophobic clowns.

I have had this idea alread many times. When "the enemy" would cross the Mekong the military junta would still think about what to do or how to react. 1) they would form a comittee coming together next week. 2) then they would order that all the +1.000 generals should come back from the USA, China or anywhere else to make a plan for the future of the war. 3) then they would go to the Wat to be blessed for making the right decisions. and being lucky. 4) All "falang" news reporters would get the order going back to their home country, because this war is a Thai problem they should not report about 5) ... the list goes on. That's the system how they work with the covid problem. Edited April 20, 2022 by puck2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
