When will Thailand open to Tourists- question/speculation?
vinapu replied to floridarob's topic in The Beer Bar
Government decisions following even most diligently and fairly conducted pool may be enthusiastically taken by the population if only because we people don't have proper knowledge or information to assess an impact so we governed may have an illusion . that people in power are listening Ask if population is for reducing prices by half and most will be for as only few will envision possible resulting shortage of goods and loss of jobs. Who asked if salaries should be doubled is against ? possibility of resulting inflation will cross few minds but I doubt it 'd be majority. When our government announced lock downs in mid March and declared stores selling alcohol and income tax preparation services an essential services we had good laugh and were awed at lobbying power of those industries. But when next day ministers explained that they don't want people with alcohol withdrawal syndromes to clog hospital capacity and in time of business closures and job reductions people may need their refunds much more than normally all of the sudden we realized it made quite a sense and our laughs were bit premature. -

nothing scientific, having nothing to do with Thailand and not even proper statistic sample but still telling : Yesterday we all cousins with extended families where applicable decided irresponsibly to get infected , get sick and subsequently die so we gathered for a barbecue , our first such gathering since Christmas Day 2019. 22 of us aged 5-83 , all of sound mind if that can be said about my family at all. Of course we discussed virus and subject of reopening our local economy as quite a chunk of it is in one way or other still restricted. We were quite surprised by what we found and all opinions expressed were pretty firm. 4 primary and high schoolers in favor of returning to school in Sept 6 working in part time or gig jobs wants to loosen restrictions broadly and ASAP including 2 university students and 2 people receiving quite generous here temporary assistance and 1 retiree still working part time. 7 people in steady and rather well paid jobs ( including not working wife on one high earner)wants to keep things closed or restricted until it's all over and the same for 5 retirees, 3 with generous and other 2 with just basic pensions. It was actually one of our high schoolers who noticed first that responses are very related to how secure our incomes are and one side doesn't understand the other. -
Finished Why R U, plot is very uneven but in a good sense, when things become too sugary in ep. 9 and 10 , all of the sudden dramatic turn of events.

and then reopen when situation improves. When there will be demand, an offer will appear.

thank you for cheering us up The Nation

Reuters reports that Prime Minister ordered review the case and second autopsy of Mr. Jaruchat as he wants to clear suspicions about that death and the case in public mind.

probably salt from Foodland is much , much cheaper than boy from Dreamboys , even for ST

we all wish it was figment of our imagination but unfortunately it's real , not a bad dream

I already watched in on YouTube, both Sarawat and Time are handsome and cute at the same time. I also like Sarawat's character, managed to be both dry and romantic , rare feast. Good news is second season with only 5 episodes is to start airing on Aug 14th. 11th episode ( second last ) of The Shipper is already on YouTube. I'm in the middle of Why R U, I like story line , Zon is cute and Fighter handsome watching all those is for me poor substitute of actually being in Thailand but still at least is something to wipe my tears, LOL

the same can be said about many of us -
I'd not write November off entirely, we still have 3 month to go. What if instead of getting depressed not to make waiting period kind of lottery fun? Will possibility come or fail ?
-
so did I around the same time and need to stand to Mr Fluke's defense, certainly no photoshopping IMNSHO
-
Thank you, in the actual " The Shipper " series he looks even better. Waiting for second last episode to be released tomorrow. In meantime I started 'Why R U " and it's also full of cuties

I'm holding unused ticked from Jun trip which never happened. I hope that by Nov it will be some opening but realistically speaking if it will be possible in January 2021 I'd be happy. On another hand I have all plans in place and ready to go next day after they announce we are welcomed again. So floridarob hold on to your ticket and hope for the best. While Dec in BKK is one of best months climate wise for Bali make sure you have at least 10 umbrellas with you -
ask Michael, he may meet them for you , close and personal included

Very fitting tittle of this thread

Watched all 10 episodes available so far with 2 more to go, to be aired coming and following Fridays. While main characters Khet / OMG !!/ Way, Kim , even school bully Off are extremely cute and eye pleasing I found plot a bit too otherworldly to put it polite so I watched first 9 episodes just to please my eyes with those four but episode 10 become more interesting and got me curious what's next.

August ? aren't we still in July ?
