It's pretty simple DO NOT pay sin sod , no doubt there are other ways you will pay where the funds are correctly utilised , and decent family will pay sin sod back , going by your story , this ain't going to happen with this lot .
An outdated ludicrous hang over from days gone by , I'm sure you've " kicked the can " for plenty already . Better you pick one area you'd like to support and follow that track , but certainly unnecessary .
Sumi is toughest of the lot , they do not accept even the vaccine passport , now if they will accepted an unvaxed PCR ? I don't know , but whatever the actual rules , they are policing their own .
Phuket , should be okey , check it out , but certainly Sumi enforcing something different .
