Bills click bait 

Just tell the 5 committee's to hurry up and sort it. 

When we are inundated by reports by Thai officials including those at the top, comments, statements and press releases that so often result in misunderstanding, require clarification or ludicrous backpedaling and denial.

I find it hard to accept these figures when you correlate the figures of other countries.

That clown wouldn't even pay tax, why would he donate?

To annoy the junta, He Thaksin should donate a million would it be accepted? Damned if they do damned it they don't. 

A Tiger in a concrete cell is this what is meant by, in good care?

How would these wealthy elites view this? Save face by donating or save face by opting out? 

The country cannot afford to beg to these elites a one Baht donation would demand a one hundred Baht return. 

I agree with those who are praising the efforts of the officials and all who are doing their best in these difficult times.

However, I'm concerned that picking a date in the not too distant future with the expectation of the situation settling down is fraught and any consideration of opening the floodgates to tourism is unwise to say the least.

I'v notice all over the world there is anticipation that we can get back to normal in a week or a month os some time soon, nothing wrong with being positive but this aint over yet and it's going to be a long haul.

Went there a few years ago terrible place.

A ludicrous and exploitive monkey show and a sea turtle in a tub about as big as a bathroom spa, these are the memories I took away.

If you think Covid 19 is a plague, it has nothing on the curse of greed.

Get used to it you numpties we have to ride this out and your want to start business again will just have to wait.

Sit on your loot and be happy.

The Government receives? Um so do the Hospitals receive?

I sure hope so. Opening prematurely or easing the lockdown would be stupid, stupid, stupid. Of course, many of the greedies & ill-informed are the govt!

If there is money for submarines, high speed trains and other no essential trinkets then there is money for the unemployed.

Have I become too cynical, or are we to expect some blathering official trying to explain how he received the Bt 5000 x 10 at the expense of those who need it?

My regular moto taxi guy used to earn 800-1,000 per day. Now less than 200 per day. Have wife and 2 children in high school to support.

 

Their anger is totally understandable. This is not about the money, now it's about basic survival for many Thai people.

 

22+ million applicants / only 1.6 million accepted applications until now.

 

Brace for a coming storm.

Most likely a storm of back flips from the Government.

Sounds like a statement from someone with ready access to money. 

People (the less fortunate ones) need work which equates to food.

This situation has seen me lose my job in Australia, I am deemed to be a casual worker and will receive no support.

Thais need support from their Government and travel restrictions need to remain in place.

Thank God!  Good to know that the enlightened leaders will keep those pesky plebs locked up.  Lord, whinging about not being able to earn money for food.  Break out the military and show those cheeky troublemakers a thing or two.  Let the rich out first, those who aren't locked down that is.  Open the malls for those who have money.  Yeah.  Keep those little people locked away until next year.  They're a nuisance anyway. 

Restrictions are in place to deal with a pandemic that is killing thousands, but don't worry it cant penetrate your tin foil hat.

If the 5 committees set up to rejig the economy fail. No problem set up 10 committees P can head every one of them.

This is why they follow the CCP on everything they know who holds the cards this is not the only way that they have been snookered. They either suck up to CCP or they turn the tap off and this is not the only thing the CCP holds over them so when the CCP says jump they say how high it's that simple.

Meanwhile in the West we jump to the USA and the Chinese.

In Australia the Government gave, or will give the flying kangaroo a huge amount of money.

The workers stood down by the airline, nothing.

Stand by for the announcement of the well connected influentials who will have the monopoly for alcohol sales.
