General Reports

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2523315]My guess is the hotel does not know if they are helping to deliver food to someone with Covid-19 that has simply not yet shown up in a test and might be so far asymptomatic or not. So they must err on the side of utmost caution when it comes to food that might promote coughing as some milk products can or food that is not fresh or fully cooked in a way that might make someone sick anyway but especially sick if he is about to show up in a test with full blown Covid-19.

Food can be delivered. But only certain kinds of food on a list of approved items that apparently does not include pizza from wherever, barbecue ribs from here and there, boiled chicken or whatever when they don't know at what temperature or how long it sat out in the open air.

Remember, these ASQ hotels are in many ways stand ins for an actual hospital room and environmment, nurses on duty, assuming responsibility for 24 hour medical attention, if needed, what you are fed, how you are tested and so on.

I don't think it is so much about a fear of infection by or from a delivery process but more about what kind of food would or should be given to someone as if they were in a hospital bed and could show signs of a serious, potentially debilitating or deadly disease any minute.[/QUOTE]All I can tell you, based on my experience. If you're looking to lose a little weight, 15 nights of ASQ will do the trick. They should use this as part of their advertising campaign.

Yes, that is what I said to him when I learned he was getting outside food delivered that might or might not be on their approved list. So you walk out 3 kilos lighter if you stick to the list! Not that he needs to lose any weight.

On that topic, I should also say he is 50+ years old, non smoker, light drinker, not overweight at all, works out regularly and has no notable pre existing health conditions.

Absolutely don't need to lose the weight. That being said, my biggest fear was a false positive test.

Not sure if this is true, but I was told that if the COVID test comes back positive, it's best to tell the insurance company that you HAVE symptoms, even if you don't. It was said that if you do not have symptoms, the insurance company will refuse to pay for your hospital stay. Would be interesting to find out if this is true or not, although I wouldn't want to find out first hand.

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2523178]How does that even make sense? If it is positive they can't just put them on a plane and throw them out of the country. And what about the 66 million Thai people that could have Covid? No mandatory test for them? What if the foreigner got his Covid from a Thai person? It is a human thing, not a foreign/Thai thing.[/QUOTE]This came from a Richard Barrows tweet who is usually a reliable source. He included the accompanying notice which appeared in the Royal Gazette on December 25th so I am assuming it is correct but nowadays who knows what's real.

Like a lot of what goes on with immigration in Thailand the devil is in the detail and whether what's actually on the books get implemented or not.

For example if presumably it has to be a negative test taken within 72 hours before applying for renewal what happens if it is positive. In 72 hours without a renewal you are overstaying your visa and technically subject to deportation. Will they allow you to quarantine until you test negative.

Some company don't cover your hospital bill if you are asymptomatic. Plenty of guys had problems because their insurance don't respond in case you are asymptomatic. So you need to choose your insurance carefully.

The bad part is that all embassies should check your insurance company and approve your COE only if your insurance company cover you with and without symptoms. But in fact many travelers got scammed by the insurance company. It's seems that embassy don't give a fuck if you have the right company or not.

[QUOTE=TConor;2523445]You cannot go or do anything but eat. I gain wt.[/QUOTE]Well you must have had better food that I did.

True, you can't really do anything or go anywhere, but I did have some workout equipment and a jump rope.

Thai woman jailed for record 43 years for criticizing monarchy: Thai woman has been jailed for 43 years for criticizing the royal family, the country's harshest ever sentence for insulting the monarchy.

The former civil servant, known only as Anchan, posted audio clips from a podcast on social media.

The 63-year-old said she had simply shared the audio files and had not commented on the content.

Thailand's lèse-majesté law, which forbids any insult to the monarchy, is among the strictest in the world.

After a three-year break, Thailand revived the controversial law late last year in an attempt to curb months of anti-government protests, with demonstrators demanding changes to the monarchy.

Are Thai Go Go Bars like the Hong Kong Club in Tijuana Mexico?

Hong Kong Club in Tijuana is like a strip club where you can watch them pole dance, get a lap dance, talk with them on the seat etc.

You can also take a room with them for 30 minutes in a hotel which is right next door.

Are Go Go Bars similar to that?

Also do the Girls have bodies like Mexican girls? Thick round asses etc.

Hi,

Are there a lot of girls that are thick (round big asses like Mexican / Latina / blacks) there?

Or are they mostly skinny flat girls?

Is there a particular club or area where there are a lot of thick girls?

My type are the thick Mexican looking girls working in Hong Kong Club or Adelita's in Tijuana by the way.

Thanks.

Foreigners in Thailand will not be required to undergo a COVID-19 test in order to renew their extensions of stay, an immigration spokesperson clarified on Tuesday. Earlier, Khaosod English reported that foreigners would need to take a COVID-19 test in order to renew their visas / extensions of stay. However, a little over an hour later, Immigration spokesperson Archayon Kraithong confirmed to Khaosod that COVID-19 tests are not required. Mr Archayon apologised for the misunderstanding.

How is it that immigration screw up so often?

If you like the bigger builds of Hong Kong Club and Adelita's, you might be disappointed with Thailand. I prefer the thinner girls so I have challenges finding my type in Tijuana but am very happy in Thailand. You might have to search a bit to find a selection of Thai girls built like Mexicans.

Some of the agogo places in Thailand do have adjacent rooms, but not all. The 30 minute Mexican sessions where the cum boy knocks on your door at 18 minutes can be replaced with more relaxing 2 hour Thai sessions in your hotel room. Thailand offers a much more relaxed session for about the same money.

I seldom feel safe in Tijuana, especially at night. I always feel safe in Thailand, but I usually stick to the well populated tourist areas. In Tijuana you see police constantly, in Thailand you seldom see them. Thailand culture stresses respect, they don't need pickup trucks full of armed men.

Even though Zona Norte is only about 1 mile from USA, I find the Thai girls have a better command of the English language.

Don't expect to find the Thai agogo clubs open in the morning like Hong Kong Club and Adelita's. Thai agogo places open up in the evening. You will find plenty of other things to do in Thailand during the daytime.

Thai agogo clubs might have 15 girls on stage wearing bikinis, not just one or two like Tijuana. I've never seen a Thai agogo place have shaving cream shows with props like dildos mounted on a Makita reciprocating saw. Though, I must admit I haven't been in every Thai agogo.

How is it that immigration screw up so often?[/QUOTE]In this particular case from what I've read, it wasn't this time Thai Immigration was spread through a guy and his forum Richard or Ken Burrows? He supposedly read or had it translated a Thai announcement in December and came to his conclusion this is what it meant that testing was necessary or being purposed? From what I saw he got a lot of hate responses!
