Its failed before getting off the ground, it's one complaint after another leading to the vast majority of would be travellers to cancel versus taking a risk to visit Thailand.
It's a crazy set up. Nobody is going to go through all that hassle just to go on a holiday. Just go back to the way it was before Covid and people will travel. If you have had your 2 Vaccines and you show your Vaccine Card at the Airport that should be enough.
Just landed in turkey from Dubai. Got pcr test filled out a health form. Landed in turkey got out of the airport in 15 min. 30 min in my hotel. No further health check or covid19 test. Going to Thailand seems hassle to begin with now...hope it ease up soon
59 and 6% so 65% of people who would come back to Thailand if the process was easier, wont be.. You totally passed over that.. 65% of the ple, thats a serious dent in tourism
HI Team, really nice to see Natty on the show she is a Star, hope the Thaiger can see what a asset Natty is. great show as alway,s Team have a good day.
I had my initial Thailand Pass application rejected (5 days after application) because they said my health insurance was inadequate, even though it covered up to US$100,000. I reapplied with the same documents and got approval within 24 hours. The main frustration is not being able to contact anyone to resolve any problems.
got my pass took 30 mins to be approved but it all adds to the stress off booking a holiday and extra expense really cannot see the need for another pcr test when i arrive in thailand when i had one 48 hours before its not very tourist freindly i understand why people are not comming
Hi JTN ( Jay, Tim and Natty) - Glad to hear that things are getting better in Thailand. In most of the western world, we do not wear masks out side , as long as we are atleast 2 meters from someone else. This way we get some fresh air. We carry a mask with us or wear the mask under the chin, and put it on/pull it up when we come across some one. Since the Thai law requires to wear masks even when you are outside, how do you get to see the great thai smiles ???? Like the one Natty has !
I want to share. I have had several basil cell carcinoma skin cancers on my arm and face. Luckily this a very safe cancer as it normally does not spreads. But it does grow and the normal way of treating it is to cut it out. Not good for your face. I read canibus oil was a good treatment. I put a drop on my skin cancer and after a month it was gone. So it works.
HI I'm from New York City, USA- you discuss all the crazy things your have to do to go to Thailand, but you have never discussed the almost $200.00 dollars you have to spend to get an insurance policy to be able to enter Thailand. Not to mention the overly priced hotels you have to stay in. This is why I'm not going to Thailand this year. makes me sad... I have been going there for the past 10 years.
Sorry but it is not 11% having trouble, bad math sir. of the 41% that TRIED the pass system, 27% (11/41) either are having trouble or gave up while 34% (14/41) had no trouble. So there are significant issues with the pass system.
Bit cringy guys! It is not just wether the Thai Pass is easy or not it is the cost. Anything from £200-£400 per person for one night in the government hotel while you wait for your PCR results! That is why the airrport is empty.
Hi Tim, Jay and Natty I have watched you Tim from when you where at Phuket news and always like the show and this will be my first ever criticism. You cannot compare Kaosan rd (sorry for the spelling) at night to Patong beach road in the middle of the day. If you have to compare them please do it at the same time of day. Always watch the show love all the snide comments hahaha
We need to make Thaiger hit 100,000 subscribers ! Come on folks !! Awesome to see Natty on the show ! There should be a History segment on Thaiger of 35 years ago in Thailand vs Today.
The big problem [to me] is the availability it would appear of SHAR or AQ hotels for just the one night. Without a confirmation you can't complete the pass and so can't enter Thailand.If this isn't sorted out tourist numbers will drop dramatically. Incidentally, could you take a minute to explain the difference in these hotel titles- are both acceptable?
"...If you sum up, it's only 11% of the people that have problems". Well, if i sum up the official numbers, i get almost 30% that is either declines, WIP or lost in the limbo. Apart that, i find it funny that the first big rise was a Wednesday. Sunday that is mostly a free day (especially outside Asia) where people have time to do such a thing, there is almost nobody applying.
Not sure Brian Flowers' "hunger strike" counts as one. Coconut juice is packed with vitamins, minerals and potassium. I think if you're drinking water too you can survive for quite some time. Pls correct me if I'm wrong And no, the Thai authorities won't lose sleep over one farang's stand. Heck, they wouldn't even allow a single farang to get a Covid jab, that's how much they care about our wellbeing!
I live in Udon & we got our vaxes the same time as the Thai’s. Also me being over 60 I got 2 jabs of Pfizer were as the Thai wife being under 60 got a Sino followed by an AZ.
@@isaanman5399 thanks! that is my point. I remember that when the vaccine rollout began in May there was an outcry when news broke that one farang (in Isaan, I think) had registered for his first jab. The PM had to call a presser and declare that not a single farang would be jabbed until all the Thais had had theirs. They clearly relented but that was the last straw for me - I went back to the UK and got my jabs there. The UK's NHS declared very publicly at the time that every single person there had an equal right to jabs, whether British or not - even illegal immigrants and asylum seekers had the same right. Their thinking was that it doesn't matter who you were - if you were not jabbed you were a threat to other people too. So I'm absolutely delighted you had a great result but it took some months before the Thai politicians changed their stance on this, under substantial pressure. Btw, the Brits are strongly recommending the over-60s (not everyone) get booster shots because the immunity wanes - will you be getting yours? I'm gonna try to get mine
Got my TP rejected today as my "EU Digital COVID Certificate" issued by the Swedish Ministry of Health didn't suffice. The document, with QR code and a bunch of other information do state that I have received 2 doses out of 2. The reason for my rejection: I need to upload proof of my first dose... ???
same thing happend to me today. my luck was the AGENCY i hired to get my thai pass new the problem and orderd my vaccination pass from me with the informations when first and the secound dose were applied. tey dont understand 2 out of 2.
I had the same trouble. I threw away the certificate of the 1st dose after having received the certificate of being fully vaccinated by 2 doses by thinking it would not be useful anymore. I do not understand why the Thai government asks people who have received 2 doses to show they had got 1 dose before. It seems that they don't see one cannot get 2 doses without having got 1 dose.
Sorry for Bryant investing so much in the club scenes, but Thailand will not really open up on December the 1st the busses / ton's of people won't be coming until tell may or June with thailand club Scenes, still have a long way to go I just came back from bangkok was not impressed look really sad, we still have a long way to go. Maybe by the end of June 2022 Peace out P.S. Bryan has property that many people want and if he can't get the rent up they're coming to get his club's. This is Thailand.2022.
Sorry but i will never be going on holiday and being forced to wear a mask. so thai law will need to change if they want my money. And the Thailand Pass - No thanks, that's not on my list of things to do!
Well Tim, I seem to recall you mentioning on a previous GMT episode that it was not your intention to stay in front of the camera on GMT forever but would like to get back to your behind the scenes responsibilities. If that is the case then maybe a poll of the viewers would be warranted as to who should take your place. My vote would be for Nattie and judging from some of the comments there a more than a few others who feel the same way.
Thailand pass was easy to complete and just received my pass so was easy. Only downside was the system didn’t allow you to upload pdf documents and everything had to be in jpeg format which was a bit of an hassle. Can’t wait to get there now in early December ! Thailand here I come!
Like everything in Thailand when they try to make things easier they add more paperwork and it gets 3 times worse? I'm with the 59% and won't bother wasting my time and money just for a few weeks holiday with a fair chance of ending up in quarantine for a couple of weeks?
Regarding your Thailand pass questionnaire, you can’t ignore the last question showing 59% of people not bothering. There’s a very strong message there that people are just not going bother trying to come to Thailand while there’s so much red tape and hoops to jump through.
I have seen this guy, Brian on utube regularly. I understand his frustration but it's not worth putting your health at risk. To be honest no one is going to care about his month long fast.
JAY thank you a thousand times for that comment : IT IS ridiculous to wear a mask outside in the fresh air -and take it away in a crowded restaurant. an even if it is the Law i will obey as a guest in thailand : it is RIDICULOUS .
Let's give the Thailand Pass IT peeps time to iron out the issues. Plus, let's give Thailand time to slowly reopen & get everyone working again. The Land of Smiles will be ready for everyone again soon. Great show & go Natty go!!🙏
just 2 days ago, you described the thailand pass as being "fast and easy", when in reality it is anything but.... not good for the Thaigers credibility
I agree with Tim that the departments will not be linked to make the Thai visa easier. This is nonsense, wishful thinking. I remember hearing years ago that the BTS and MRT will be linked with just one card and that has never happened. I don't hear about that much anymore. I think you take a pretty casual attitude to what people are going thru with this mess of the online system. My husband is in Europe and waiting to get his code so he can come back here where we live. His hotel and flights are booked and it is nerve racking. By not throughly testing the system before it is revealed for the public to use screams ineptitude. Are you aware there was no contact number that people could use when if first came out? Couples who applied at the same time would get very different responses. One would get the code almost immediately while the other person could be waiting for days. Pretty shabby way to treat tourists and foreigners!
The trouble with the mask law is that it's silly. Tourists have to be vaccinated and there's no need for them to be wearing masks, especially outdoors. (And, yes, it makes no sense at all when there are no distancing measures in restaurants.) Of course, the alcohol ban makes no sense either, as drinking alcohol is no more dangerous for disease transmission than eating together, packed into restaurants.
@@CaptainKremmen Exactly why I would never retire there. Bangkok is also shoulder to shoulder so even understandable for Flu requirements but not the case in 98% of Thai towns. Including Pattya and Hua Hin. The size fits all is what dumb public servants do.
It's over 26% 11/(14+16+11) who've had a problem - you can't count those that haven't even tried. Or you could say, 70% didn't get approved - depends on how you play with the stats.
Since Nattie is there I'll watch again👍🏾( only Mondays lol) edit: but maaannn trowing out a pole number (choice you provided) because you don't like the high results. Bad form m8 bad form.
Shove it, to complicated , booked for December till end of January, couldent make it harder if they tried !!!!!! Are you sure the want people to come back ?
I believe your interpretation of the poll was wrong. A majority (66%) of the people that actually had tried the site had not received their QR code yet. Some might receive it later, but many people didn't even get the email and probably won't be successful even if they wait. I believe they will improve the Thailand Pass site though, so it could have been worse. The PDF issue is just embarrassing though.
Looks like you are using the TAT methods to come up with those stats.I didn't see a figure saying -Easy,did it with no problems- that's the number I want to hear.
Don’t forget the third wave was started in Thonglor in a couple of areas frequented by young Thais not social distancing or wearing masks and this Tim you are pointing foreigners not wearing masks in Khao San Road, double standards don’t you think
@Tawan Paradize Thai health minister is a racist pig, like most in parliament, they only want to line their pockets. And their pockets are overflowing while the general public starve and cannot pay bills are being hounded by loan companies to take out loans that they cannot pay back. It’s disgraceful and Thai people should vote at the elections and not ignore them, just get out there and make you voice heard with voting.
Tim, that is mean to refer to Natty as a Barrel Girl.. She is in my POV brings a fresh face to the 'Good Morning Thailand' segment.. Btw, don't mess with Natty because now she knows Muay Thai.. Haha..
Tim chastise people, especially farang, not wearing mask which not wearing mask is against the law, but on you advertisement for 5 Star Marina, neither Tim nor the representative wears face mask. Practice what you preach
Jay your math is off. You said only 11% of people had a problem. That is false. The highest group didn't even try. 59%. That means one 11% of the remaining 41%. That number is 26.8%. That is considerably higher than 11%. I thought you went to international schools in Phuket. Maybe your parents should ask for some of those fees back. Good thing you weren't hired for your Math skills. :)
Good work on creating the channel boys but I think Natty will fast become the STAR of the show and I would be surprised if she is not Head Hunted for bigger things soon. No problem seeing you guys daily but Monday girl doesn't cut it for Natty you need her there every day. Very refreshing indeed and make sure you keep her.
Tim! Jumping on the privacy bandwagon is particularly unhelpful before you actually understand how it works. What happens is the the participating government links your specific vaccination status information to your passport number so this (and this only) can be accessed by immigration in the country you are travelling to. In other words it means that vaccination status is now included in the information immigration have access to. As Natty pointed out there - what else could there be to gain?.. also, I am team Natty too - she is great and very articulate.
My Thailand Pass approval took less than 1min so guess I was auto-approved. As no person could have checked everything in that short time it actually seems that it is automatically done.
As a non Thai, I got my TP about 10 mins after submitting. It’s very easy and fast as long as you have all the docs in JPG format. To automatically get JPG format, I took pics of all docs with my iPhone camera and send them to my laptop. I made the TP application using G chrome from my laptop and attaching the pics from my IPhone. That’s it! Very easy and compliments to Thailand.
If I am asked to eat bitter gourd before having my favourite sweet, will I have the inclination to eat the sweet. Thailand pass and the medical insurance is like bitter gourd 🙄
Please read Brian's vlogs before commenting. He didn't say the things you represented. He is bringing awareness. And not fasting forever. Your comments about Brian make me question your other reports.
We travelled yesterday .... Got BOTH : COE and Thailand Pass (in 4 days) .... Suvarnabhumi Airport was a swish thru .... Out in one hour, on to the van for a 1 day quar .... the en-route hospi rtpcr was a quick one too (great idea) We live in Thailand and it was a good exp!
you say many foreigners were not wearing masks but id say jut as many Thai people were also not wearing masks - and whys it ok to go to a restaurant and remove your mask lol - i think thats part of the eating process, the ability to put food in your mouth
Masks wearing is essential for now. However.... the Thai mainstream news broadcasters wear a mask during the broadcasts.... but GMT seem to feel it is not necessary? But pointing fingers at those who don't? I am just saying. But all in all I love the shows.

I reapplied with the same documents and got approval within 24 hours. The main frustration is not being able to contact anyone to resolve any problems.
Water fasting for 3 weeks is nothing. It’s very healthy, Mr. Flowers could go 3 months without food and be fine.
Brian Flowers could stand to lose a few pounds but the Thai government seems to be singling out bar owners and haven't given them one baht in relief.
They've probably given them the same amount they pay in taxes. The UK Govt did the same to Branson.
got my pass took 30 mins to be approved but it all adds to the stress off booking a holiday and extra expense really cannot see the need for another pcr test when i arrive in thailand when i had one 48 hours before its not very tourist freindly i understand why people are not comming
Hi JTN ( Jay, Tim and Natty) - Glad to hear that things are getting better in Thailand.

Since the Thai law requires to wear masks even when you are outside, how do you get to see the great thai smiles ???? Like the one Natty has !
I simply can't wear masks long term. Get very breathless and claustrophobic. I can't imagine what it would be like in the Thai heat and humidity.
I want to share. I have had several basil cell carcinoma skin cancers on my arm and face. Luckily this a very safe cancer as it normally does not spreads. But it does grow and the normal way of treating it is to cut it out. Not good for your face. I read canibus oil was a good treatment. I put a drop on my skin cancer and after a month it was gone. So it works.

Some might receive it later, but many people didn't even get the email and probably won't be successful even if they wait. I believe they will improve the Thailand Pass site though, so it could have been worse. The PDF issue is just embarrassing though.
Took me and my girlfriend 8 days to get approved, I expected it to be earlier but we did get it before travel date.
Looks like you are using the TAT methods to come up with those stats.I didn't see a figure saying -Easy,did it with no problems- that's the number I want to hear.
Unfortunately I have noticed that their are quite a few people walking around Bangkok in the Sukhumvit area not wearing masks and 100% are foreigners.
Don’t forget the third wave was started in Thonglor in a couple of areas frequented by young Thais not social distancing or wearing masks and this Tim you are pointing foreigners not wearing masks in Khao San Road, double standards don’t you think
@Tawan Paradize Thai health minister is a racist pig, like most in parliament, they only want to line their pockets. And their pockets are overflowing while the general public starve and cannot pay bills are being hounded by loan companies to take out loans that they cannot pay back. It’s disgraceful and Thai people should vote at the elections and not ignore them, just get out there and make you voice heard with voting.
RIP Bryan. LOL
Thank you for the up to date news from my favourite coubtry.
I hope Bryan Flowers health does not suffer.
you have a fun way of delivering the news.
Great episode stay awesome
Sorry guys this presentation isn’t good, someone is hogging the narrative!!! again, Natty is cool but must be fuming 😡, Tim should be behind the scene
Tim, that is mean to refer to Natty as a Barrel Girl.. She is in my POV brings a fresh face to the 'Good Morning Thailand' segment.. Btw, don't mess with Natty because now she knows Muay Thai.. Haha..
Tim chastise people, especially farang, not wearing mask which not wearing mask is against the law, but on you advertisement for 5 Star Marina, neither Tim nor the representative wears face mask. Practice what you preach
2 vaccinated adults sitting in a private boat in the middle of Phang Nga bay is not ‘public’
@@TheThaiger beg your pardon, the boat is a commercial boat and you are making commercial for public viewing, but it is your opinion verses mine.
Is a plastic face shield acceptable instead of a mask as I suffer from COPD ?
You will probably delete my post again but here is the funniest barrel, barrel girl in Australian hitory
Jay your math is off. You said only 11% of people had a problem. That is false. The highest group didn't even try. 59%. That means one 11% of the remaining 41%. That number is 26.8%. That is considerably higher than 11%. I thought you went to international schools in Phuket. Maybe your parents should ask for some of those fees back. Good thing you weren't hired for your Math skills. :)
Natty is very insightful good to see her on here
Good work on creating the channel boys but I think Natty will fast become the STAR of the show and I would be surprised if she is not Head Hunted for bigger things soon. No problem seeing you guys daily but Monday girl doesn't cut it for Natty you need her there every day.
Very refreshing indeed and make sure you keep her.
Netti is gorgeous
Great show guys and gal. Also I loved the Muay Thai video that Natty made.
More Natty, less arrogant Jay
Tim! Jumping on the privacy bandwagon is particularly unhelpful before you actually understand how it works. What happens is the the participating government links your specific vaccination status information to your passport number so this (and this only) can be accessed by immigration in the country you are travelling to. In other words it means that vaccination status is now included in the information immigration have access to. As Natty pointed out there - what else could there be to gain?.. also, I am team Natty too - she is great and very articulate.
“The privacy bandwagon “.
Silly Me . I thought privacy was god given
Not in Thailand.
My Thailand Pass approval took less than 1min so guess I was auto-approved. As no person could have checked everything in that short time it actually seems that it is automatically done.
Ratings:- 1. JET 2 NATTY, 3 TIM & 5.5 JAY
.... HALF TIME RESULTS
As a non Thai, I got my TP about 10 mins after submitting. It’s very easy and fast as long as you have all the docs in JPG format. To automatically get JPG format, I took pics of all docs with my iPhone camera and send them to my laptop. I made the TP application using G chrome from my laptop and attaching the pics from my IPhone. That’s it! Very easy and compliments to Thailand.
The sad thing is that this happens so rarely. Not quite a reason to celebrate yet. The truth is that this process SUCKS!
If I am asked to eat bitter gourd before having my favourite sweet, will I have the inclination to eat the sweet. Thailand pass and the medical insurance is like bitter gourd 🙄
Enjoyable episode!
Well boys, you did it, Natty, 10/10, you’ve made yourselves obsolete. Smart, full of personality and pleasant on the eyes. Bye bye Tim. Haha.
That’s why we call Tim Colonel Klink !
Yep, blind ignorance🤣
Please read Brian's vlogs before commenting. He didn't say the things you represented. He is bringing awareness. And not fasting forever. Your comments about Brian make me question your other reports.
Natty for the win!
Make Natty the lead
Jay and Tim if I was wearing some of your shirts I would certainly be wearing a mask,
The Thais always make things hard.
Now have a chance to opening in december ?
The tim-jay combo is just great on their own ... An occasional guest is ok
Thailand is open? so why are all bars closed?
We travelled yesterday .... Got BOTH : COE and Thailand Pass (in 4 days) .... Suvarnabhumi Airport was a swish thru .... Out in one hour, on to the van for a 1 day quar .... the en-route hospi rtpcr was a quick one too (great idea)
We live in Thailand and it was a good exp!
Have you booked your test on your own thorough hospital?
Natty should be there full time with you guys
you say many foreigners were not wearing masks but id say jut as many Thai people were also not wearing masks - and whys it ok to go to a restaurant and remove your mask lol - i think thats part of the eating process, the ability to put food in your mouth
Natty is a smarty
Masks wearing is essential for now. However.... the Thai mainstream news broadcasters wear a mask during the broadcasts.... but GMT seem to feel it is not necessary? But pointing fingers at those who don't? I am just saying. But all in all I love the shows.
