What is the current situation regarding the Omicron XEC variant in Thailand and public reactions to it?

Michael *********

Time to come up with a new way to strike fear into the population, we've already seen this story before. We all know it was bogus from day one.

Is this expat group in Thailand just about drama or is it actually helpful?

Michael *********

Apparently many of you have never heard of free speech. Maybe where you live it is not allowed but with FB being an American company it is allowed. My suggestion is to ignore things you don't agree with then move on. Freedom of speech is no regulated to protect people's sensitive feelings. Suck it up!!!

What are the best ways to spend 8 days in Thailand while in Pattaya?

Michael *********

My thoughts exactly. Rayong is home to one of the best beaches in Thailand, Mae Phim, Ban Phe is 15 minutes away. From there you can hop on a speed boat or ferry to Koh Samet. During weekdays there is a good chance the beach will be empty. Plenty of small food vendors line the beach as well. My favorite place in Thailand.
