Yeah, nothing like being incarcerated for two weeks and when let out for a daily walk, it's a buffet full of Chinese. Will be a wonder if there isn't mass suicide among the Scandis.

Only a few going to Phuket, to buy up the bars and guest houses and turn them into gold shops and high class spa parlours. The rest going to Bangkok for medical treatment. The next wave after Xmas will be Chinese and Russians that have been vaccinated 6 million Chinese lined up then Sputnik 5 Russians will follow, long time for vaccinated euros to be allowed in as they are to busy fighting over who will be the winner of the vaccine race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Announce a proposal, couple weeks later announce 150 people (not 147 or 152) will arrive under the proposal yet the final plans of proposal not announced. Insinuates 150 people standing with papers in hand and all book flight immediately upon Thailand saying 1, 2, 3 go. As well as the consular stamping all said papers immediately as well as all covid tests, fit to fly, etc. etc. etc. But, whatever..... These 150 and then the other 120 odd from China will be " Specially Selected Guests " They will be people that have a huge influence over where the Chinese will be allowed to Holiday, also " Investors " in Real Estate and large Business These people will have been chomping at the bit to get here and pick through the Covid carnage for bargains, and it would have all been arranged several weeks ago. The State coffers cannot keep running on fumes, and these kind of " Investors " will add a large amount of Money to the Economy in the absence of Tourists.

Virt Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Even if i had the chance to be amongst the 120 "lucky ones i'm not sure i would spend money on a ticket to Thailand. Thailand can withdraw their offer faster than i can sneeze, and then i'm stuck with a plane ticket and hotel bills. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to have the virus under control and they do make up approx 18% of the world population and are perhaps by tourist numbers spending and investing the most in Thailand travel/tourist/property industry. Unfortunately, in the US, UK and many countries in Europe, the virus is out of control as the inhabitants of those nations feel their freedom of whatever is important. It is out of control in Switzerland. Yet Thai embassy Berne publishes entry rules for OA and OX visa holders. Switzerland is in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poster didn’t say to let in people from any of the five countries you just listed. Now tell me how an American or Colombian who tested negative for covid 72 hours or less before their flight and stay in a ASQ hotel 14 days and were fit to fly have more of a chance of having covid then the guy from China or Sweden after doing this????

We need many more people in Thailand to go out to eat and hope and enjoy the beaches. This not even a drop in the ocean. What is your plan to recover the loss of 12% of GDP ?

Donga Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Fact is not many countries, other than in Europe, have opened up their borders. Can imagine there are competing voices within countries, including Thailand about the speed of opening up. Australia and NZ are musing again about the Tasman and Aussie PM Morrison said they're also looking again at the safe countries bubble concept. Expect this dismal first STV exercise is a test to satisfy some in the Thai decision group. Chinese are easy to marshal and not surprised they're first, followed by the Nordic snowbirds, good on 'em. I'm hopeful this will soon broaden into the original safe countries bubble talked about before the 2nd wave freaked everyone out. I'm calling November a month of more movement in the region and many people where they want to be by Christmas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
