Does the recent visa rule update in Thailand apply to foreigners with permanent residency or only to NON-O visa holders?
I'm assuming this only applies to foreigners with permanent residency here and not non O visa/extension holders. Anyone know?

No it's not true.
If you come from Thailand and visiting one or more of the approved countries you will not need to stay in the country for 21 days.
Actually you can for example go to both Germany and UK for 5 days each and then get back without a problem.
You still need exactly the same paperwork and testing as all others.

Thailand is most popular land to make a no sense rule and change it after they realize it some later. Well... Not all people have a logic quick thinking. Some needs more time....
