The headline is extremely misleading. The requirement is for all passengers flying from Thailand to India, not for "Thai tourists". In practice, the vast majority of those needing to test will be Indian nationals returning from holidays in Thailand. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you miss that or doesn't it fit the narrative? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indians_in_Thailand I'm talking of the country in general and it's hygiene. I've made business trips over there and I have invited friends and family. However they've always declined stating that they think that the country isn't clean. My Thai daughter has been Mistaken for being Indian and my great grandmother was of Indian origin. I find Indians lovely people. It's more of Thailand is the center of the universe perception perhaps. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RandiRona Posted December 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) It's funny how these so called western Falangs find every opportunity to disparage Chinese and Indians. Inherent racist and conscious/unconcious biases against Asians is pretty common in this crowd. Why it is so difficult for them to understand that China and India is more than 30% of world population and no country specially the one which depend on tourists cant Ignore these countries and it really doenst matter if the western economic refugees doenst approve it. World had changed and whether you like it or not, This is an Asian century lead by new center of powers in Asia. Indians and Chinese are one of the smartest people you will find, some of them are running western countries so dont feed the biased propoganda to your progeny. They wont survive if and when they have to work for their Indian or Chinese bosses. Edited December 31, 2022 by RandiRona 1 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stand by as this one spins Anutin in circles. Anutin has already stated that he is not worried about the Chinese coming as they have to be PCR tested negative before leaving Thailand.......something is getting really stinky with China just all of a sudden lifting restrictions an allowing full blown outbound travel for the Chinese New Year. Deja vu back to 2020 where the Chinese were allowed to spread the virus by allowing its citizens international travel for their New Year holidays. Let’s do it again is the new chant!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Any individual travelling from Thai to India, no matter nationality. The Indian Government must be serious about this. Not long ago when coming to Thailand it was policy for almost everyone to have a negative PCR test conducted no longer than 48 hours before boarding their flight. Thais did not need to provide a negative test. This may have to do with a nation's citizens natural right to enter their own country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
