, I’ve been working in Travel Industry since 1993, so I would say tourists are the love of my life.

But I want equality.

It’s many things I don’t like and that is how many people want to pay their way out and believe that is helping the local community.

One thing that I think is both good and bad is Pattaya.

Because what the American soldiers turned it into is a disgrace. But at same time it has created thousands of jobs, which makes it very happy.

So I am happy that King Bhumipol decided that in Hua Hin it should be no skyscrapers or flights.

That resulted in Hua Hin to become a city for families.

Phuket has everything people need and don’t need. But unfortunately it is in a area with many Muslim, so I never want to go there.

Up north we have two brilliant cities, Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. They give people everything they ask for is not a Muslim area.

I love tourism, I love seeing people in Thailand earning money 💰 in a decent way.

But I will never respect people who are peeing on the poor people by cutting the line and pay for vaccine 💉 instead of waiting for their turn.

Okay
@Bra****
, but then I hope all the people who are willing to pay for the vaccine 💉 instead of waiting in line are proud when they read about poor people who have to wait and have restrictions.

I hope the people who are willing to pay for vaccine will be proud when they think about that they contribute to create bigger differences between people from their country and the country they visit.

I hope the price will be 1 million baht if you get the vaccine in Thailand before any Thai citizens, because otherwise you are stealing the vaccine from those waiting in line.

I know many people will not like my answer, but I hope no country in the world will accept anyone to get vaccine against payment.

Because all people have a citizenship and should therefore follow the rules for their country.

But if you live in a foreign country, then you must follow the rules for the people in that country.

To all people who want to pay for getting the vaccine, you should think about this:

Would you be proud of yourself if you pay for the vaccine and then know that someone in that country maybe have to wait longer time before they get their vaccine?

Yes Jerry, but my information is from TAT and they are working on behalf of the Thai government all over the world.

And they gave me the information in a meeting on Teams 10 days ago.

So it’s first hand information I got.

, you are wrong.

From 1st April everybody will be in 10 days quarantine, according to the Thai government.

But the hotel will force you to stay 11 nights.

If you are fully vaccinated, then it is 8 nights.

Only exception are those travelling from African countries, they must still be 15 nights in quarantine.

And it is one more thing.

The Thai government will update their list of safe countries two times per month.

You don't have to have the money anymore. They recently stopped the requirement.
