Pattaya: City reveals plans for Walking Street - major "mall" style makeover for Thailand's "world class resort"

Here we are again, firstly Pattaya is not a "World Class Resort" too many dangers for this to be true, lack of safety on the roads & crossings, sidewalks either in poor condition or none existing, smelly drains coupled with flooding after a heavy rain shower, Rats & pigeons infesting the beach & beach road one could go on & on......

The mayor Sontaya Khunpluem commented that Walking Street has to be "fit for purpose" and not adversely affect livelihoods.

He stressed that any makeover must ensure that the "special smell and flavor" of Walking Street must be maintained.

Did have a little giggle at this one the way it is worded but basically he is on the right track, if at all possible the atmosphere of the area needs to be maintained where ever possible, if they make it squeaky clean it will kill the place, balancing the ambiance will not be an easy task but at least he is thinking about it.

Has there been a single group returning that didn't have at least one Covid-19 positive person?

A very good question, but what I cannot understand is Thailand is reporting very few new cases but many suspects in the returnees, so are we to believe none of these "High Temperature" reading people do not have the virus..??

Thailand’s Ministry of Culture will propose, to the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA), the declaration of special public holidays, from July 4th to 9th, for belated Songkran celebrations, which were postponed from mid-April due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Is this the Ministry of culture or Ministry of "SILLY WALKS"........LOL As has been pointed out by many of the above people this is an absolutely STUPID IDEA!!!! people can ill afford further holidays once again this is just another distraction from what the government is not doing to ease the lockdown of the population, it should also be named "Water Fight" as it will have absolutely nothing to do with the Songkran festival which has been and gone, and why five days the country cannot afford to waste so much water when the farmers are going without for their crops it is an absolutely childish way of thinking.

Replacement would be good.....LOL

He suggested that all foreign travel for pleasure was not sensible at this time, was problematical anyway and people might wait until there was a vaccine. 

I take it this gentleman does not work directly for TAT - LOL - Therefore people will need to make their own minds up when and where they holiday..........LOL

Why not celebrate christmas in August while we are at it..........LOL

I can envisage the social distancing being a real hoot.........LOL

Don't forget the tourist value of such places, even if not frequented by all there will always be the "Must Have a Look" attraction for tourists.....!!

Somkid Jiranuntarat, one of the developers of the "ThaiChana" platform, explained on Sunday (May 31) that the spam occurring on the iOS system via iMessage is not related to "ThaiChana". He said  currently the ThaiChana app is available only on Android.

Obviously there is some work required to make this safe for use, I do believe this system was developed as a joint venture between our friends the Chinese & Thailand (probably more input from the Chinese), therefore there are understandably concerns over using this item as we all know how the Chinese love to control......!!!!

The problem is when you take your foot off their throat the people run away and hide......LOL
