JustSumGai Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 https://www.nationthailand.com/in-focus/40000576 what I find interesting is the implication that some may get back to good ol FUN! " Pipat also said the ministry is still maintaining the original July 1 launch date of its Phuket Tourism Sandbox as “the campaign will serve as a pilot programme for other provinces, therefore it needs to be implemented as soon as we can”. Under this scheme, tourists who can verify they have been inoculated against Covid-19 and test negative can fly into Phuket and move around freely without having to quarantine. Similar schemes will be run in other top tourist destinations such as Pattaya, Chiang Mai, Krabi, Phang Nga and Koh Samui later, once more people have been vaccinated and preventive measures are put in place there." of course he KNOWS that few of those places can ever achieve said vaccination levels, but hey why let logic interfere. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come october when they realise it cant be done, they'll probably ditch the plan and try to think of something else.

Many folks seek out information that reinforces their individual biases, an echo chamber if you will (Similar to a few guys here- The USA is evil, all other countries are perfect, 555!) We have lost the Age of Enlightenment dictum of "I disagree with what you say, but I respect your right to say it." Now is morphed in to "I disagre with what you say, so shut up!" 555. BOT, I saw this video of how to get through to anti vaxers. Their doctor is the key... Mmmm, another person being quoted as saying Israel is doing something great, as doing a great job with vaccinations. Maybe they are but they were slow to bring the population to heed the danger of Covid. They have a population of about 9 million so easier to cater for than larger countires. They are only just bringing the death toll to a halt. I guess with the control that the Jews have over US policy it is no wonder that praising comments like this are made. And before you say I am antisemetic, ( a term you hear everyday),my mother suspects that my fathers mother was Jewish, which means I must have Jewish heritage. So there!!!!. (By the way, if you have some spare time, watch the debate between Christopher Hitchens and a Jewish Rabbi on youtube. An interesting discussion.) Maybe if he had quoted New Zealand and Australia as being role models he would be more on target. They took steps much earlier to control the spread of the virus. Australia has been a bit slow in vaccinating people,(only about 2.6 million out of 25 million so far), but the death rate is nil and has been for some time. Same as New Zealand. Israel has a problem with vaccinating Palestinians. Very few getting the jab. Perhaps they need to heed the decision that Thailand has taken to vaccinate falangs. Hope that does not change?. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaking my head, its a waste of time trying to reason with the bigots named above... Wow!, you are puting words in my mouth, and you sound really wound up about it?. I dont hate the US and also dont have a miserable life. I may dissagree with their policies from time to time and their political choice of leaders, but we can all do that I guess. Dont think I ever said I approved of the Nazis putting Jews in the ovens?. By the way they also put many others in the ovens such as mentally handicapped and others they thought to be of no use to them. I must say I have always puzzled over the way that Jews have been persecuted through out time. Never been able to find out the answer. Lets face it, most wars through history have been religious based but the Jews in particular seem to be the ones singled out more than others. The Jews appear to have an inordinate amount of influence over American policy and receive a large amount of US finance. Must be a reason for this?. Would it be their position in the Middle East, as a buffer from the Arabs?. They were given the land now called Israel by the United Nations in 1948, mainly due to the prompting by the US under Truman. The UK was not so keen. A map was drawn up and it was divided between the Jews and the Arabs. Nice of them to do that!. Anyway Lance, have a Koolaid and calm down. I think reasoned debate is useful, calling people bigots is not!. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pdoggg Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 Since we're talking about Israel..........Israel will be compensating the wives of the two dead Thais killed in the recent bombing 6,000 shekels and other compensation to the worker's kids. The two Thai workers were killed by Hamas but are covered by Israeli insurance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quietguy Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 6,000 Israeli Shekels would be about 58,000 Thai Baht. Not that much for a life. I didn't know that there were so many Thais working in Israel, apparently usually around 23,000. https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/crimecourtscalamity/2021/05/20/thais-killed-by-rocket-in-israel-part-of-large-workforce/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
