For some reason Friday is not a holiday so you might get a lot travelling on Thursday afternoon and night so can go to work on Friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just talked to a friend who decided at the last minute to drive up to the MIL's house with his wife, at her insistence. He called me from his car around Pimai and said the roads were just horribly busy. He left at 6 am from here in BKK, driving up Mitrapap 2 and he said no checkpoints, just lots of RTP waving them onward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The USA blames China but China blames the USA and Thailand and the UK. Will we ever find out? Will the culprit please stand up and compensate the world for all the pain you have caused. One thing is for sure WHO will never find out as it's too late, the secret is kept. If you really want to know who is to blame for this virus and every other virus that has hit the human race you can only look at 1 person and that person is "Mother Nature" because it is her and only her that has given everything that is to do with anything in nature.

sapson Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 To avoid spreading the virus nationwide they could have issued a test negative to travel directive. However that would have involved extensive freely available covid testing which they have avoided so far. Not enough test kits full hospitals in Bkk refusing to test, only a tiny percentage vaccinated, unrestricted travel allowed, perhaps a cunning plan to cull the restless revolting peasants. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) Actually an update as I just got an email from the school and spoke to one of the parents involved. Now 3 students at International school in Phuket positive, parents are not so much worried about the virus as having to leave the kids none of which have symptoms alone in hospital with no contact for at least 2 weeks, apart from nurses and doctors in PPE Edited April 10, 2021 by Bkk Brian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you think the CCP is behind this coverup and so so do I but the world needs proof and they need to know the whole story of what was behind this. So if nobody says, "My fault," then we can't blame anyone?? There has been genocides where people have said, "I didn't do it..." and millions of people in prison who said, "it wasn't me." So are they innocent???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ParkerN Posted April 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 10, 2021 2 hours ago, PatOngo said: It's a cultural thing! Passed down through generations! ???? True enough. As foreigners, the best we can hope for is not to be immersed in Thai culture, and not to absorb it. You'd be surprised how many come to think it's normal (or even represents some kind of advancement); even more surprised to hear some folk who ought to know better actually immerse themselves in it, hoping to identify with the Thai consciousness - start saying stuff like 'Buddha preserve us' and the like, hoping to draw attention to what they perceive is their advanced status as people... Strange but true: wouldn't suit me at all, but I suppose it isn't for everyone. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Golden Triangle Posted April 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 10, 2021 As our American cousins would say, it's time to hunker down, the lunatics are running the asylum. I can't believe that the fools have allowed millions to travel home when less than 500,000 have only had one shot, as far as I am aware in the UK Christmas & new year were cancelled, pubs and restaurants still are not open, perhaps they really do want to kill off the current crop of dissident surfs. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
