Bill Gates the expert in COVID??????? And the Inflation of 50% ? Where? Even If the Diesel price was 1.80 Euro before Corona..... where ist it now 2.70 Euro?

Sorry to rub salt in, but you only needed 30 days. 650 baht. And of course you can't now cancel it and get a refund. You would have been able to cancel it before you used it to enter Thailand but not after (at least any insurance companies that I know of). Imagine everyone would be buying insurance to get TP then cancelling it a day after they arrive in Thailand and getting a refund - insurance companies are not stupid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought 30 days and used the same policy for two trips three weeks apart - meaning on my second TP application my insurance only had about ten days left to run. I actually expected it to be rejected but it got approved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not disagree with you, but Thailand loves paper. You and me and every other sensible person and country would not want paper, but these silly people collect it like mad.

Postmaster Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Aussieexpat Yes, true, its not fresh news but don't knock it as a useful and timely reminder. I for one was still unsure about the need for the $10,000 US dollar insurance. Now its been clarified for me as I have a ticket to return to Thailand next month.

Well you can definitely count the UK out as a sensible country IMHO, thanks to those masters of bungling incompetence and ineptitude called HMPO who insist on Brits renewing their passports from Thailand providing a mountain of paperwork which in aggregate is probably taller than Everest!

They even give Peace Nobel Prize to people who actually promote wars and conflicts. It's more a way for the University to get a moment in the news, than Bill Gates who probably will close it in a drawer and forget about it.

Where did you pull that fact that it was only a problem for the very aged? And even if it was, is it a case of 'bad lucky granny, you are just going to have to die earlier'? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnotherFarang8 Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 At this rate of loosening restrictions, they are sure to remove the vaccination/pcr-test requirement in a few months just like Vietnam ALREADY did. Just in time it starts getting cold in the northern hemisphere. Only to realize that hordes of western tourists are still not coming for vacations being wiped out of savings with soaring expenses at home. THEN the penny really drops and real competition of tourism industries begins. As for right now, rainy season doldrums with fantasies about the coming high season earnings.

Some people really need someone from the government to fly to them, pack their little suitcase for them and hold their hand all the way back. Real life just seems too difficult for some people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
