massage now faces having to completely reinvent itself. 

 

Have to pull all the stops out then but you can't do it by tik tok so maybe it'll be a glory hole type evolution where you have stick your limb through a hole in the wall ..

90% closed seems like a gross exaggeration to me; 50% might be nearer the mark.

Not sure about that. I was talking to an airport "limo" driver. He said about 90 percent of the drivers are no longer working. Not the same business but I would assume definitely over 50 percent.

"Now, the media reported, there are genuine fears that Pattaya as a place for spa and massage now faces having to completely reinvent itself."

 

No tour groups anymore. What does reinvent mean? More individual soapy massages  and more happy endings?

There will not be any tourists coming in until around July at the earliest..........

 

China does not want its people travelling, they want domestic tourism and have 2 billion people to vaccinate.

 

So let Europe get most of its people vaccinated by July 2021 and with "Covid Vaccination" passports..........and you might see some coming in when Thailand adopts acceptance to the new "Vaccination Passport" scheme where only vaccinated people can travel outside their home country.

I agree. or maybe we move in similar areas. MPs might be 50% , restaurants a bit more. Also beer bars might be up there.... but that and the lack of Western tourist predates Covid. Had a massage yesterday and, yes I was their only customer of the day so far, but many places open.
