I guess the PMs vow to keep Omicron out of Thailand will put and end to it. Or will he fall on his sword when it does come?

Samui is better then Krabi.

not trying to make light of even a single death but all this over 256 deaths.  In 2018 there were 378 deaths due to road accidents during songkran.  at what point does the means not justify the ends?

Just realize that we're still in the middle of all this pandemic stuff... so it might not be the same if you ever been here or it might not meet your expectations from what you've been reading online. I'm living on Samui and that for me works fine, I've traveled from Phuket to Samui quiet recently hence I can give an opinion about Krabi.

Most vivid is Phuket but this is to be expected, bigger, more known and just more people not really following the rules... It's just how it is.
