FROM THAILAND WITH LOVE! (MAY 2020)
We live in a difficult time in which some extra love is welcome! That is why we started our From Thailand with LOVE campaign in April. We asked our Thai friends and relations to write a text from the heart. This with the goal to show how super sweet the Thai people are and to spupport the hospitality industry in this amazingly beautiful country. Since our very first visit to the land of smiles we have been totally in LOVE with Thailand and the Thai!
Hopefully we and many others can return to amazing Thailand soon.
For now, be good for yourself and to each other!
“And, in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make.” – Paul McCartney

From Bo.lan & Err with LOVE!
Regardless of how you are dealing with this global problem we understand that this is also a very personal situation to be in and we hope you remain positive and healthy. We'd like to ask everyone to really think about the future they want after this is over and consider how every choice they make impacts the environment and conversely us! We have a great opportunity here to really re shape the way society functions and we should grab this opportunity with both hands. No mater where you are in the world if you focus on thinking global but acting local you can make a huge difference not only in your quality of life but those in our global community. Our food systems are partly responsible for the mess we are in and we truly believe they are the way out of it also! If all of us make commitments to sourcing more local, organic and biodynamic food, if we eat less animal based proteins and when we do choose ones from high welfare ethical free range farms, if we choose wild sustainably caught seafood fro local fishers who use more mindful and less impactful methods to fish we are already make huge inroads in to reversing the damage made by our food choices. Eating is a political act, we encourage you to use your voice in every bite!!! respectfully, ----- Bo, Dylan and the entire Bo.lan and Err teams! -----

From Nakadia with LOVE!
We are living through the craziest time of our life right now and nobody knows when the world will go back to normal again. I believe this is the hardest part for us that we are healthy, not to know for how long we will have to stay away from each other and what the world will look like after this. Will we have a job? Will we be able to keep our business alive? These are the questions many of us have. But we should not forget those who ask “Will I still be alive tomorrow?” Hundreds of thousands will not be able to see the world after Corona. All of us who will be able to see the world after Corona, we should see this as a chance! Let’s make this world a better place after this crisis is over. ----- Nakadia -----

From Thipsamai with LOVE!
Dear Thailand Magazine readers and team, From the situation that we are currently facing around the world with "Covid-19" we're aware that during this is a hard time. Food is one of the most necessary commodities we need everyday. We're concerned that the economic impact is greater than what we've seen before and we'd like to be a small part to help the Thai society getting through this. So we came up with the new menu which called Padthai Chuay Chart available for only 40 baht. (Chuay means support and Chart means country in Thai: So we created a menu to support the country). For medical staff who's interested in the new menu can contact us directly using our Facebook page. We will provide the Padthai Chuay Chart and deliver to you for free. We'd like to help support you while trying to keep us safe. Thipsamai (Padthai Pratoopee) Co;Ltd. wish everyone the best and we will get through this together. From us with <3, ----- The whole ทิพย์สมัย ผัดไทยประตูผี - Thipsamai Restaurant crew and family -----

First of all, we would like to thank you Thailand Magazine for your love and care sent to us in writing. We are appreciated and glad you love our business. Certainly, the Covid-19 pandemic throughout the world has inevitably affected our lives more or less. This, of course, has included everyone at Perception Blind Massage.

We are doing everything to survive in this difficult time. Not only us who have been struggling, we know. We all are facing this situation. No matter what happens, we will never give up.

From Le Du, Baan, Mayrai PadThai & Nusara with LOVE!
In this global epidemic of covid-19, it hits everyone in every corner of the world. Either we like it or not, it is what we all need to face for awhile. Many are all beaten, downed, sad or unhappy. I was when we were forced to close all our restaurants more than a month ago. But after a few days, i made a choice to myself and our team. We will do what we know best, cooking. It might be in different shapes and forms but at least we still cooking. From fine dining to food delivery, it is not what we want but it is what we can do out of this unfortunate situation. At least it still keeps me and my team cooking and smiling. Until we meet again!

From Pimalai Resort with LOVE!
During this challenging situation, nature has set the reset button. Roughly 15 false killer whales - actually dolphins with skulls similar to Orcas were spotted on 22 April 2020 just 400 meters off the Andaman island coast. It was the first time their species had been spotted in Mu Koh Lanta National Marine Park. The oceanic dolphins inhabit tropical and subtropical oceans are considered rare and protected under the Wildlife Protection Act. Until we can meet again…. let the marine life enjoy the oceans, and let us think of how we can share the beauty of the natures without disturbing them too much. ----- The Pimalai Resort, Koh Lanta, Thailand crew -----

We all find ourselves today in a world of sadness, fear, and loss, that was unimaginable just a few short months ago. But we’ve learned that in this darkness we just need a small light to illuminate the way forward. We find that light from our team, in the way they work together through difficulty with a smile in their hearts. We find it from our customers, reaching out with love and support from all around the world. And we find it from strangers. Acts of generosity, kindness, and love, the scope of which are almost impossible to take in. It’s humbling. And it’s so inspiring. Today we are sending you so much LOVE from Thailand.

From Pluto Ice Cream with LOVE!
Pluto Ice Cream has been around for more than 20 years,almost 30 actually. A family business that always aimed to deliver quality with a smile and the best service possible. Because we love Phuket so much,we decided to stay local,we have been quiet lucky so far, even if we have been strucked from the Tsunami that almost left us with nothing to recover but we still had the support of the tourism that quickly pumped into the economy what it needs. What we are experiencing now is something unreal, we are in deep trouble and this time we don't see the light at the end of the tunnel as bright as we saw it before...we all are experiencing tough moments,but here,because our economy is basically based only on tourism it is even worse. Please come back as soon as possible and give to the land of smile a reason to actually smile again! Stay safe, with LOVE from Phuket, ----- The Pluto Team (Pluto Italian Gelato) -----

Dear Thailand Magazine readers, Here from Hoh Tao the situation is looking good as no case of covid19 but same every were all the hotel and resort are close for safety reason. We closed our Mango Bay Boutique Resort at Koh Tao as well for the safety of my staff and we are here and look how the nature takes back its normal place at the moment. No boat and visitors but a lot of fish and animals back again, like black tip shark. Also the turtles are back and many other type of fish and birds this make me consider how the mass tourism is bad for the ecosystem. I still consider wen we will reopening to make sure that all as guest appreciatie the nature and will enjoy natural life.
