    There is actually a tipping point, where the decision to finally act becomes irrelevant.  People’s lives are at stake. For those who succumb to Covid 19 (and their families) while the government fiddles, “better late than never” will provide little comfort. 
    It seems the leaders were far quicker to act decisively when the protests in Bangkok were quickly turned into a coup, but now they seem to be sitting on their hands.

  2. For the first time in 5+ years living here, I have experienced outright discrimination and bigotry twice this week from Thais in Hua Hin. At a dermatologist a Thai woman glared and got up and moved to the other side of the room with her child when we sat down. Then, a really messy ladyboy (ridden hard and put away wet) grabbed a mask (laying on a table) and hurriedly put it on (Rolling her eyes) as we passed outside the supermarket (as if we posed a health threat to her).
    Having never been made to feel unwelcome before, Hua Hin is becoming unhinged. 
    We are are not young unkept drifters , we are an elderly, well groomed and dressed retired couple of means. 
    It doesn’t bode well for when the situation begins to pull at the threads of Thailand’s infrastructure and capacity.
