I don’t see any issue with this. Just wish this “90 day visa option” was available to all countries on Thailand’s “good countries list” 🙂

Didn’t happen in Pattaya dude…

I agree with most of what you’ve written. But the biggest problem here is, the cops and army are the main “dealers”. This guy’s death is not a deterrent to selling drugs, it’s only a warning the small dealers must share with the “big dealers” (police and army). Yes sad, but true. What is also sad in this country is, many people have no other way to “get ahead”, other than selling drugs. Zero help from the government for the unemployed, due to Covid doesn’t doesn’t help!!!

Opening up to foreign tourists who are fully vaccinated, will not cause a spike in cases. Opening up (no restrictions) the country may or most likely will cause a spike. Everyone keeps bringing up the % of fully vaccinated people here being low, let’s not forget that all who have been infected and recovered, have an even stronger immunity then those vaccinated. I truly believe a huge % of the Thai population has had it with mild symptoms, without knowing it. Remember which country reported the first case, outside of China lol

Live near Udon Thani. We had a lady representative from our area come to our house and asked for copies of our passports (my wife has dual citizenship Canada and Thailand) and our house book. The next day we received a call from a doctor telling us to go register at the Udon Provincial Health Office. I registered and we tried to register my wife, but at that time they told her “foreigners only”. I was vaccinated the next day with Pfizer and will have my 2nd on September 13th. My wife called back the next day to plead her case and talked directly with the doctor in charge, she was then able to register and received her first Pfizer shot 2 days after me. I found the whole process pretty well organized, even though mine was the first day for foreigners (took a bit of time as, I think, they hadn’t thought of an “extra form” that would be needed to present at the second appointment). My vaccination took about 90-120min from start to finish. 2 days later my wife’s took less than 60min to complete. Free! We have also registered and paid for Moderna at Bangkok Hospital in Udon Thani, but have been told we can “give” that to someone else. Of course the appointment time is between October and January 2022, so who knows how that will all turn out lol Not easy to say most days, but have to say “Thank You Thai government” ????
