Businesses need to offer Thais huge discounts.... they won't pay the over-inflated prices given to foreigners!

However, they were under the impression that the eggs would be handed out free to the needy as part of the assuaging of the terrible impact of the virus on China.

 

That didn't happen.

 

Overnight all the eggs went missing.

 

Then an online message appeared advertising "Cheap Eggs For Sale".

 

An employee at the temple explained that the money would go to the temple coffers and everything would be alright.

Love it.... Thainess at it's best!

The opposition led by FFP yesterday said in the debate that coups had been obstacles in Thailand’s development.

A coup is sometimes tolerable... it's when they don't return the country to the people that's the problem.

Thailand is to formally declare COVID-19 as a dangerous infectious disease because there are signs that the situation may get worse in the next two months.

Gradually we keep hearing these little hints that things might not be good.

Numbers have been continually cited at 35 cases & of those some have been released.. so why would things suddenly get worse?

“The situation in Thailand today is still in a range we can cope with,” he said. “And the government will take care of all affected sectors of society.”

The problem being no-one knows for sure just what that range is?

Especially after the Phuket health minister said he'd been told by Bangkok to keep Stum about things!

Although officials have done a good job in containing the virus, the Prime Minister said that he wants the country to be fully prepared to cope with a worsening situation.

It's a bit like a hint.... "just in case" things get worse.
But with the minimal numbers they so far admit to being only 35, and some of those already released, surely the figures will be at zero soon?

Or has someone not been completely transparent?

Phuwanat Jemsri, 33, said he rushed to the showroom after he heard that he could get half a million baht off.

 

He wanted a Captiva for his mother and said he could get it for 609,000 reduced from 1,099,000.

More debt on the way!

Then the problem lies with the teaching of the subject matter, not doing homework. 

Exactly, it's not the quantity it's the quality..

homework was meant to teach students to work on their own initiative at home, then grade their effort when handing in work.

Like most things it got out of control and became another way to make up for what was not being taught in the classroom during normal hours!

Sounds a bit like they know what the verdict might be already?
