» Re: "Thamanat's fortunes dip", (BP, Dec 29). I see from our "flour" ex-minister Thamanat's asset declaration that he has not one but two wives, evidently living in harmony, as evidenced by their two children. Many men would be most grateful if he'd reveal how he's managed that feat, as my wife insists that Thai laws allow us only one spouse each, with strict punishment for violation.

» Re: "Still an outsider," (BP, Nov 30). I beg to disagree with Khun Millie Tan, who says that a non-Thai should not comment on our politics despite that person's having a Thai wife and lived here for 18 years -- unless he has Thai citizenship and can protest and argue like a Thai.

A country that depends on close to 20% of its GDP on travel and tourism should by now be right up there with Israel in terms of inoculations or at least at par with the UK to be able to open up this coming summer.

» The detection of 548 new cases of Covid-19 infection in one day in Samut Sakhon is truly alarming. The 548 new cases are 12% of Thailand's 4,331 cumulative diagnoses of Covid-19 since January this year. This is also the largest single outbreak of the virus in Thailand, exceeding even the army-owned Lumpinee Boxing Stadium cluster, with more cases surely to be found in Samut Sakhon in coming days.
