He can not think a day ahead.. Look at the Thailand Pass.... and 2065 is 50 years to go..... but as ususal the delays in improvement will continues going on.. nt yet, we are working on it, there has to come a new comitee, and so on and so on...... and in 2065 it will be still the same

He stumbled already last week for a press conference, now he makes another statement that is nonsense.. I think he has Alzheimer disease...... In all the time he is in power he has done nothing at all for the climate... crack downs yes... but still a lot of cars with black smoke, cars too old to be on the road, nothing about wind and solar energy, still a lot airpollution in Bangkok, ChiangMai... The only thing he has achieved no plastic bags,, but I see them coming back again in the big stores

Good, so they still don't have a clue... A vaccine only protect you to be less ill if you catch Covid, With several cases in the prisons there is still a possible outbreak coming.....Vaccinated or not, positive tests are positive sick or not,...... But Oh I forgot,  a new category  will appear soon... positive cases from prison visitors....  than we have PCR tests in normal public and prisoners , ATK tests which we don't count, Prison tests from prison visitors which we don't count too  and other clusters we forget,and see soon we have zero infections 

I dare to say that most Thai teachers are cruel for the kids. If they don't understand and can not doit they are lazy, or and got hit. It happens already in kindergarten with as a result that kids are afraid to ask the teacher to telll again or explain one more time. The teachers in Thailand can not be questioned.. the idea is that a teacher is clear in explanations and asking means loosing face for the teacher. 

It happened when I was teaching I cam into a class for my lesson and there were fractions on the blackboard of the previous lesson. My job was teaching converstation English,but as a warming up I wrote a similar fration on the blackboard and asked who knew the answer for a few candies if it was correct.  Except 2 students nobody knew the answer and a few students said to me that they did not understand fractions. So instead of doing my lesson I explained the whole frations and the students were happy and 90% understood. The result was that every lesson they wanted to play a game with fractions math....... and I knew that they would never have asked their math teacher...

new infection clusters have emerged from funerals, weddings, at schools

So promissing by reopen the schools yesterday..... weddings are not so many in the past months, because parties were not allowed with more than 25 persons or 50.

The school I know will open on site per 1st of December  or maybe later if the situation worsens...

Today we see a rise of infections.. 8.859 pcr test and only 8.253 recovered.  If you calculate the ATK test too than thee are almost 12.144 new cases against 8.253 recoveries

No gatherings.... 30.000 people on Suvarnabhumi on  Monday... rows waiting for immigration desks..... School open on Monday... many students in a crowded schoolbus, schoolyard, and at lunch time.... Funerals and parties in the temple for katina festival.....Overcrowded shoppingmalls.... How will they inforce such a stupid announcement?? Throw everybody in jail or fine everybody?? Than a lockdown was better.....Or is it just to prevent the protestors gathering???But than the police has to o to jail too.. They are standing very close to eachother, shoulder to shoulder and several rows, That is dangerous too for spreading the virus.. Oh no double standards..... 

There is one thing I am missing in al the requirements for tourists and that is wearing a mask. In many countries already here is no need to wear a mask anymore but in Thailand you are obliged to do it.. Nowhere I have seen written that tourists has to do this too, or have I missed something?

Phiphat said he had learned a lesson

Is that true??? he will not make new fake or unchecked news anymore??

Thai people don't take advice or listen to other peple.. They know everything by themselves, hve their own solutions. Thailand is the center of the Universe and even if friends  for many decades, from Japan have idea's why should they do anything with it... Only when it goes  wrong it the others to blame

14.000 new cases and 1000 from prison missing........and the numbers are really as they lie...But who cares... The country must open...... no going back........millions of THB for artists, managers, organizers and hotels and the poor can do it with no or bad effective vaccines...Happiness to the people

AHH, it's it's uniqueness that attracts the millions of tourists.

maybe because they have here hostesses in stead of s*workers

1000 prisons infections are unknown where they came from and are not in the figures yet..... Manipulate, manipulate and we open next week

Good to see another large decline in the official number of new infections with number of recoveries continuing to exceed new cases. 
 

Deaths up on yesterday (assuming it’s 66 as in the headline and not 6 as in the text of the OP). 
 

Latest data from the worldometer ranking table for deaths/million of population over the past 7 days shows Thailand dropping to 70th in the world, 21 places below the UK.

 

Same table shows Thailand fall one place to 14th in Asia, 5 places below the Philippines and 3 places above Vietnam. 

 

The number of deaths over the past week remains at 7 deaths/million of population, down 21% over the 7 day period, with the number of official infections also falling 10%

It depends on how you see it.. If you only count the PCR test than the cases are declining, but if the rapid test are being included than there is a slight rise.. IMHO I think that the recoveries will contain also the ones from the rapid test, so in fact they don't count them as positive but they count them when recovered... It looks good on both sides, but is it the truth????
