    Provincial governors of border crossings nationwide have been given special powers to close borders, with only one land border crossing per province permitted to stay open

    Makes sense under the circumstances... although hard for some people.

    Tough decisions are never easy or welcome.

    its  not  about "beliefs" its  about  statements of  fact by specialists outside of  Thailand people who are  not  towing a line or  impeded by the state with a thought based education. Just  look at  Anutin, he  speaks on behalf  of  the govt................you trust him?

    There are two things in Thailand, truth and beliefs, as we all know they are thought of in equal measure by different factions of the country...

    It's not hard to wear a mask or any kind of protection when you go out... just make your own statement.. 

    "I'm doing something" is better than doing nothing.

    That's what the officials did at the start, and that got us where we are today!

    The holidays themselves should be deferred and people discouraged from traveling home to visit elderly relatives.

    The current venue shut-down is giving the people a chance to go home... the Songkran national holiday was being mentioned as a possible target for postponement.

    Most Thai in the entertainment industry will use this closure until the end of the month to go home.

    “Each day, we accept 70 patients severely injured from road accidents and die”, Mr Rungruang said.

     

    “Each day, 700 road accident cases require intensive care,” he added.

    Plus the dead at the scene... 50-70 people... per day  WOW!

    That's one hell of an admission.

     

    The transport minister should be up there in number one spot with the CM governor for doing sod-all!

    Prime Minister, Prayuth Chan-o-cha, has appealed to all people in the country, especially in Bangkok and metropolitan areas, to avoid travelling to other provinces during the Covid-19 outbreak.

    So after closing all the resorts amenities he expects people to stay in their rooms?

    With Songkran holiday possibly being cancelled many Thais will take this opportunity to go home!

    Public Health Ministry spokesperson Taweesin Visanuyothin said on Friday (March 20) that, while many of the 55 fans found have tested positive, the number of infections that day could be as many as 500.

    Hindsight would suggest that this event should have been postponed... being such a large gathering, but money talks as usual.

    A professional football team staying in Hua Hin. Beyond the issue of the hotel, how many and which restaurants did they eat at? Where did they have drinks. If one teammate tested positive, you have to assume other teammates are or will become infected as well.

    It's just downright irresponsible and stupid not to make more information available, especially the name of the hotel. Facts publicly disseminated can save lives. 

    And empty hotels... hence the secrecy!
