We all remember what happened last time when the paid Pheu Thai supporters pretended to protest peacefully for democracy.

They win 4 election.

up to the people right?

They win the election last time same. 

 

But 

 parliamentarians should consider the fact that Prayut lacks a mandate from the people since he did not run for election. Also, he is the sole PM candidate nominated by Phalang Pracharat, which failed to win a majority of seats in the March election and thereby has little in the way of legitimacy to form a government.

Put into perspective 330,000,000 people and do the math.

 

Not opening the economy, such as what Thailand is doing, will have adverse effects

Thailand is open economy. No lockdown now. 

Everything open now. 

Because we control covid already. No infection 78 day already. 

 

 

Only not open to foreigners not want quarantine. If they bring covid again must close again. 

Sensible. Not loons.

In big cities and tourist resorts.

 

Upcountry more like 400-450 for a bricklayer / plasterer or painter.

 

Now, with people losing their jobs in the cities etc and returning home there are more workers available for construction which keeps wages down.

I was on construction site today in Ranong. Most job the Burmese working per meter. Not per day.

Upcountry? Issan? Yes, be cheaper. Issan worker in Ranong today the site get 500 per day. 

Prefer Burmese. Generally speaking Burmese better skills, work harder, polite  and faster. The Issan guys drink to much. Some is lazy, Some is stupid.

 

Electric work 180 per point for Burmese. Install toilet 400 etc. 

 

Today is Ranong.

Life is going on quite well in Thailand...compared to the lockdowns in many others and out of control spread in the U.S. Schools and businesses are open and internal travel is unhindered...there's no other place I'd rather be at the moment.

Life in Thailand start again, schools, factorys, plazas, inside restaurants, etc. only the border is closed. 

I wish it open. But can not.

 

Because selfish maskholes, anti vaxxers, anti tracing appers, anti social distance, anti rules people in many countrys. Stupid conspiracy theorys.

Some place even have covid party. 

 

because this covIDIOTS is be impossible stop. They refuse the rules then cry they loose the job, business etc. Stupid people.

 

If allow selfish people enter Thailand because “need a holiday” covid will spread again= schools, factorys, plazas, restaurants etc will close again. 

 

Thai people follow the rule= 5 weeks control covid.

Other countrys not wear mask, etc etc, 6 months already= it be worse. 

 

I want covid to end SO MUCH. But be impossible with selfish idiots. Fact. Really.

 

if not have selfish idiots= control covid about 5 weeks, same Thailand.

 

 

 

The type in the video= the type “need a holiday” 

only care themself. 

= 

Amazing USA.

The warning sign for me was the trend for large companies to build new or relocate factories in other countries.  A couple of years back Toyota built their mini production line in Indosnesia, Panasonic recently move some production to Vietnam.  Not a lot of progress with the EEC!

Because Thai salary double Indonesia, Vietnam. 

Thailand still win because infrastructure better.

 

 

How the Toyota factorys in Australia? 

 

https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry/end-car-production-australia-what-went-wrong

 

Of all the Free Trade Agreements that Australia has with other countries, none was more brutal than the deal with Thailand introduced in 2005. Since Australia agreed to lift the import tariff on cars from Thailand, more than two million Thai-made vehicles have been imported; from familiar brands such as Ford, Holden and Toyota, as well as Honda, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Mazda and others.

In return, Australia shipped to Thailand just 100 Ford Territory SUVs. That’s because Thailand maintained hidden, non-tariff barriers while Australia opened its borders completely. Ingeniously, Thailand continued to impose higher registration fees on cars with larger engines – such as those made by Ford and Holden. Toyota already had a Camry factory in Thailand so couldn’t export cars there. Thailand – regarded as the ‘Detroit of the AsiaPacific’ – is now the second-biggest source of motor vehicles in Australia after Japan and ahead of South Korea.

The Thai tourism model is built on high-volume, low price.

 

Unless you're willing to deal with ~ 30-ish million tourists, it's a waste of time and energy.

 

BS

Only 30+ million since three year ago. 

Successful before that.

The overly cautious approach, combined with extreme cowardice on the part of the administration, amounts to sadism. They are inflicting untold pain on the masses and on Thai families with foreign partners. Millions are out of work. 

 

The process should be simplified. Anyone, from any nation should be welcome starting tomorrow.

Sorry Mr USA, no thankyou. We have no infection local case 75 days already. We beat covid, not want be same USA.

Schools open, factorys open, plaza open, inside restaurants, weddings, etc etc. We live again. 

 

Only thing is border not open. Why we want this people come in? Argue about mask, anti vax, anti social distance, anti tracing app. Idiots. 

 

More people die your country every 4 hour than TOTAL Thailand.

 

Other countrys start lockdown again. Because they stupid. Open before they control. 

 

I loose money because covid. I not angry thai government. (About covid). 

 

But I angry so much other countrys covIDIOTS, maskholes, anti vaxxer loons. 

 

Fighting each other black and white, lefty and hard right etc etc.

If they are willing to support the economy by paying for quarantine, there is no risk, and only upside. 

 

Who pay?

This appears to be extreme timidity on the part of the small and weak men in charge. And it is grossly unfair to the people in tourism. 

Like Spain? Open two week, must close again.

Also, Thailand is taking alot for granted. They are assuming they will even be remembered once all the delays are over. That is alot to assume these days. Gone, and maybe forgotten?

Thai should die because USA selfish guy want holiday? Pffft.

Thailand be remembered for 

Thailand ranked highest in a global survey for its effective handling of Covid-19 and recovery from the crisis. The Global Covid-19 Index (GCI), published yesterday (July 28), gave Thailand an index score of 82.06, putting it on top of the global chart as an example of best practices in tackling the dreaded virus.

I predict tourism will never return to it's previous levels, in our lifetime here. Caution and prudence are one thing. Inane stupidity and paralyzing fear is another. 

Good. 40 million every year to many. 

Damage nature to much. 

 

I be so so happy if covid finish tomorrow in the world same thailand. Thailand win covid in 5 weeks. 

 

Because 99% people follow the rule. If other countrys 30% refuse the rule, covid will win, sure. Forever.

I not want this selfish people come thailand for holiday. For what? Spread = close factorys, restaurants, plaza, schools etc etc again? 

 

Nobody starving Thailand. We have lot food. We help each other.

 

i have good idea. Everyone in USA wear mask, wash hands, social distance, tracing app, lockdown 5 weeks. You be control covid. 

THEN you be welcome thailand. We not want your virus. For what?

 

Many TVF member anti mask, anti vax, anti tracing app, anti social distance. I not want foreigner with selfish behavior now. Refuse listen. Care themself. One guy say he will pay the nurse throw away vaccine, not take it. 

For what?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Covid infections up and up.

Why? 

Behaiviour.

 

 

 

One of the largest events since the beginning of the pandemic has begun in South Dakota: More than 250,000 people are expected at the iconic Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.

 

Many who rode their bikes into Sturgis on Friday expressed defiance at the rules and restrictions that have marked life in much of the world during the pandemic.

“Screw COVID,” read the design on one T-shirt being hawked. “I went to Sturgis.”
