De value the Baht is the way forward  for Thailand and foreign tourism.(1) exports will increase. (2) more tourists will be motovated to visit when they are allowed. (3) Thai families will be able to live a better quality of life.

They say parks are open but the National Parks are still closed ?

On a different matter. Regarding Tourism. Now is the time the Thai Baht needs to de value in order to get foreigners to think about coming and help with their exports. Its Rediculous how it stays so high. 

Thailand is cutting its own throat keeping it high.

I've pretty much been all over Thailand on motorcycle, the good road far out way the bad I have found.

Potholes everywhere I find that an exaggeration really, where do you live.

Anywhere in thailand, no where is without pot holes etc. If its not that then its tractors, pickups pulling out onto the road without even bothering to look to see if its good to do so. Or scooters with women on their phone not looking in their mirrors , only to see  if their makeup is still on.

So. 130kph suddenly some how looks a more wiser / live longer stratergy!   But on roads you know and can deal with the other previously noted you could be good for a short gun  to what your  nerves are set at

Very few pubs here.

 

I'd reckon they wont open until they are allowed... most likely june 1st. I think they will be the very last place to open, as people will be too close to each other. Also pool tables etc . People touch with their hands, and last but not least the gov dont want to see people drinking too much and or possibly driving.

The wearing of masks means that asymptomatic/presymptomatic people aren't breathing out virus on others - which is the main reason this virus has spread so much more widely than 2002 SARS which was only contagious if you were showing symptoms.

 

The virus probably doesn't cope well outside in Thailand (because of the combination of heat and humidity - and UV from the sun), so if people aren't going into air-conditioned offices / shopping malls and aren't travelling together without masks in buses or the BTS or metro in Bangkok, and aren't eating in indoor restaurants or going to boxing matches indoors, where exactly is the mass spread that would raise the numbers going to happen?

 

You can hide (or miss) infected people by not doing mass testing. But you can't hide a large increase in dead bodies - so something is working here that isn't working in Europe or the USA.

All Asian countries seem to tell people what they want to hear. Not, what they should be telling people. The figures are declining on a too perfect scale. So, really?

So if you aren't listening to the science of masks, are you listening to amateurs who came up with the studies you refuse to link to?

 

Wear a mask if you are sick or have a pimple. If not, don't.

Not in Roi Et Province.

Shopping malls, golf clubs, non essential shops still operating as usual.

Only way to  halt this ..containment containment

Containment! Od a vaccine.

And we aint got that yet!

Many valid answers. Can i just say 36hrs to get where they need to be. THEN containment!  At ghe moment people are freely going where they want anyway.
