  1. The Politics of this country are no different that the Chinese Communist Party. Governors are not elected. Police Chiefs are not elected. As a matter of fact nobody appears to be a legitimate elected official in Thailand. I guess communism won after all in Thailand.

  2. There seems to be 1.9 Trillion Baht in Play. The PM says he has no money to help the people. Amata wants it to invest in Thailands production capacity. Don't know who any of these Companies re going to sell to? The Thai Government wants to use the 1.9 Trillion to bail out the elites. It never ceases to amaze me that the Government of all countries care so little about their people.

  3. Give some credit to the Government Leadership. I the last couple of days they have made some progress:

    1. Planning to inject another 500 Billion Baht ($15 Bill USD) into Covid-19 Relief. They are working out the details and stated they won't be borrowing it from the IMF.

    2. They have extended unemployment Benefits for Thai workers at half pay for 180 days. Previously it was 90 Days. However, they must have a letter from the Employers stated the worker was let go because Covid-19.

    3. In this Article: they are extending the 5,000 cash hand-outs to 9 Million out of the 18.8 Million Registrants. An increase over the 3 Million they earlier projected.

     

    Essentially, they are claiming the remaining 9.8 Million registrants are covered under Social Security Unemployment and are not eligible for the cash hand-out.

     

    The Government has shutdown nearly every Daily Wage Earners income through its closure of most service industries; Retail outlets, Restaurants, Bar Staff, Noodle Shops, Fruit Sellers, Coffee Sellers,...etc...etc...

     

    Is is true that these 9.8 Million they are claiming are ineligible for cash hand-outs really workers covered under Social Security Unemployment Benefits? 

     

    Or, are these 9.8 Million being denied the cash handouts REALLY Daily Wage Earners   working at retail outlets, Restaurants, Bar Staff, Noodle Shops, Taxi's Tuk-Tuk, Fruit Sellers, Coffee Sellers,...etc...etc. and the have no income; and really affected by the closing of business' in Thailand, and not covered under Social Security Unemployment Benefits? 

     

    I think I can casually say that I know a ratio of at least 100 daily Wage Earners who are not eligible for unemployment compared to every Worker who is eligible for unemployment.   

     

    What will happens if there really is 9.8 Million People not receiving Financial support; and unable to support Mom. Dad, Sister, Brother, Grandpa, Grandma?

     

    You can fill in the blanks for the rest of it.
